Book excerpt: The “master of heart-pounding suspense”—New York Times bestseller Phillip Margolin—returns with a new legal thriller starring Robin Lockwood. A young woman accuses a prominent local college athlete of rape. Convicted with the help of undisputable DNA evidence, the athlete swears his innocence and threatens both his lawyer and his accuser as he's sent to prison. Not long after, there's another rape and the DNA test shows that the same person committed both rapes—which is seemingly impossible since the man convicted of the first rape was in prison at the time of the second one. Now, the convicted athlete, joined by a new lawyer, is granted a new trial and bail. Shortly thereafter, his original lawyer disappears and his law partner is murdered. Robin Lockwood is a young lawyer with a prestigious small law firm and a former MMA fighter who helped pay for Yale Law School with her bouts. She is representing the victim of the first rape for her civil lawsuit against her rapist, who is now convinced the rapist is stalking her and trying to intimidate her. At the same time, another client is up on a murder charge—one that should be dismissed as self-defense—but the D.A. trying the case is determined to bring it to trial. Now she has to mastermind two impossible cases, trying to find the hidden truth that links the two of them. Phillip Margolin, the master of the legal thriller, returns in one of his twistiest, most compelling crime novels yet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This issue of Ideas in History marks our continuing attempt to internationalize the journal at the same time that we publish scholarship of pressing international interest from scholars based in Scandinavia. Ideas in History 6, no. 1 is an open issue—though its pieces lay emphasis on the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The articles in this issue emphasize intersections between culture, morality and politics. Mikkel Thorup investigates genealogies of radical terrorist philosophy and practice. Ben Dorfman looks into plays of historical thought in human rights, and the problem of alienation in both human rights and philosophy of history. Benjamin C. Sax regrounds Nietzschean concepts of the Will to Power and Will to Truth via new understandings of Nietzschean genealogy, and Elisabeth Stubb takes on problems of nation-building in Finland, and the role of intellectuals in the creation of world opinion. We hope our readers find Ideas in History 6, no. 1 enriching.

His enjoyment of the sun, the surf, and the company of a lovely young fashion reporter is interrupted by the death of the socialite's niece: she mysteriously drowns while swimming on a crowded beach. No one suspects murder until the police find a lethal dose of sleeping pills in her system. As Sargeant watches the police's investigation unfold, he keeps an eye on the grieving socialite; the victim's famous painter husband; a suspiciously cheery brother and sister; and a garrulous tabloid columnist. Now, instead of planning guest lists, wine choices, and menus, Sargeant is faced with a killer unlike he's ever faced: highly sophisticated, devilishly clever, and just as smooth as he is.
