Book excerpt: Being promotions director of a large shopping mall isn’t the most stress-free job on the planet, but Jenny Turnbull enjoys it and is darn good at it. But her job becomes quite a bit more gruesomely stressful when an unseen gunman goes on a spree in a bloody food court massacre during her special Hallowe’en promotion. And the situation gets totally out of hand when it turns out that the surviving victim, whose life is hanging by a thread in hospital, is the deadbeat son of a powerful, vindictive and grudge-carrying local city councillor. Dark secrets hidden in the mall’s back corridors come to light, rumours of drugs, child prostitution and infidelity, some involving the victims. Or was the murderer simply a crazed customer like the one that threatened Jenny on the very day of the murders? As Christmas nears, the mall Santa quits suddenly and the pressure is on for Jenny – protect the mall’s reputation as a safe place to shop, find a new Santa two weeks before the big mall parade and help solve the mystery of the murder. The inner workings of a large urban mall make fascinating reading but don’t detract from the central questions. How will Jenny find the time and resources to unravel the tightly wound skein of this mystery?

Book excerpt: Set in 2020, the first year of a united Ireland, Turas tells the story of seven friends, connected through a church cell group, and their spiritual journey through this significant time. One man struggles to come to terms with a skeleton in his past; another wrestles with the reality of an unhappy marriage and a dead-end job; one asks out a new girlfriend – and in doing so bites off more than he bargained for. Alongside these events the men are all living out their everyday lives dealing with their own unique challenges and disappointments. As the men meet together to study the Bible, in particular the story of Jeremiah and the exile to Babylon, they find the timeless book speaking to them in their current situation in a way they did not realise before was possible. At a range of key milestones in the year, the protagonists explore the meanings of these markers in their year, interpreting them in their own way. Focused on Ireland’s past, present and future, Turas will appeal to Irish residents and fans of Irish fiction. It will also reach those interested or involved in Christianity and Evangelicalism.

Book excerpt: Spiritual medium Emma Whitecastle knows a good ghost when she feels one—like her own sweet Granny Apples, long gone but still as famous for her apple pies as she is for helping her great-great-great-granddaughter get to the core of the most baffling mysteries... When Emma gets word of a sticky spirit problem in Las Vegas, she and the ghost of Granny Apples hit the road for Sin City. The spooked one is Dolly, a former showgirl. Dolly is haunted by Lenny, a dead Vegas hood worried about an aging mobster named Nemo coming after the leggy old bombshell. Dolly’s playing dumb, but Emma’s making a blind bet that she knows more about Nemo than she admits. When Nemo is found dead, Dolly goes missing—and lands herself on a short list of suspects. Emma, Granny, and their pals comb Las Vegas to find her, only to discover the truth behind a casino heist gone bad, a hidden stash of stolen loot, and a missing wise guy who’s not letting death come between him and setting things straight. And Emma and Granny Apples aren’t about to fold until they save Dolly’s neck and put her past to rest.

Download or read book Shopping written by Jenny Shaw and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-04-24 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We spend more time shopping than doing anything else, after sleep and work. So why is it not taken more seriously? The answer: we take shopping for granted. Indeed, culture can only ‘work’ by being taken for granted. This paradox – that what is most familiar, like shopping, is also the hardest to ‘see’ analytically – provides the starting point for this compelling examination of the many dimensions of the shopping experience. Shopping enables readers to realize the significance of their shopping memories and milestones, how the rhythm of the day or week revolves as much around shop opening hours as working hours or bus times, and why Mayor Giuliani was right after 9/11 to tell Americans to keep on shopping. From an exciting cultural perspective, Jenny Shaw explores how shopping is viewed, the history behind its ‘fall from grace’, its part in the common culture, its role in helping us craft new identities, hold on to old ones, adjust to change, and generally ‘hold us together’ both as individuals and communities. Students of sociology, anthropology, social psychology, media and business studies interested in culture and the everyday world will be gripped by this engaging and accessible guide to the meaning behind what the ordinary shopper actually does and why shopping remains so popular despite social and cultural changes.

At home they planted maize grains and bean seeds in two cups, and produced two seedlings, which were in harmony with the new leaves that were appearing on the trees outside as it was Spring time. Rose was school age, but there was no room for her yet in the schools.
