Book excerpt: Marshal Aislinn Cain and the serial crimes tracking unit are sent to New York City to investigate murders identical to murders committed during the 1980s. However, the serial killer responsible for the original murders is dead, killed in a shootout with the NYPD when they cornered him dumping his last victim. This new series of murders though includes details never released. Only the medical examiner’s office and investigators working the case knew the killer shoved straight pins in the soles of his victim’s feet. Every murdered woman, dumped in the same location as the original victims, in this new series has, not just the straight pins, but the same brand, pushed into the soles of their feet. The SCTU will need to reinvestigate the original case to ensure the NYPD got the correct man, while investigating this new series and identifying reasons someone would replicate this particular series of murders. During their investigation, they’ll meet the nemesis of murdered hero US Marshal Nathan Green. Can they vindicate Marshal Green’s suspicions about his nemesis and solve both series of murders or will they leave NYC questioning if they got the right man too?

Download or read book Dreams Dreamers and Visions written by Ann Marie Plane and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2013-05-03 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Europe and North and South America during the early modern period, people believed that their dreams might be, variously, messages from God, the machinations of demons, visits from the dead, or visions of the future. Interpreting their dreams in much the same ways as their ancient and medieval forebears had done—and often using the dream-guides their predecessors had written—dreamers rejoiced in heralds of good fortune and consulted physicians, clerics, or practitioners of magic when their visions waxed ominous. Dreams, Dreamers, and Visions traces the role of dreams and related visionary experiences in the cultures within the Atlantic world from the late thirteenth to early seventeenth centuries, examining an era of cultural encounters and transitions through this unique lens. In the wake of Reformation-era battles over religious authority and colonial expansion into Asia, Africa, and the Americas, questions about truth and knowledge became particularly urgent and debate over the meaning and reliability of dreams became all the more relevant. Exploring both indigenous and European methods of understanding dream phenomena, this volume argues that visions were central to struggles over spiritual and political authority. Featuring eleven original essays, Dreams, Dreamers, and Visions explores the ways in which reports and interpretations of dreams played a significant role in reflecting cultural shifts and structuring historic change.

Book excerpt: Aislinn Cain wakes up on a cold concrete floor having been drugged and kidnapped by serial killer Raphael Henders. Despite the chaos, she has a few questions; is Gabriel still alive? If so, for how long? And where exactly is she? As the answers start to reveal themselves, Aislinn comes to the realization that Raphael Henders is unlike any serial killer she has ever faced before. Not only is he brilliant, cunning, sadistic, and brutal, he is part of the organized ring of serial killers that the SCTU has been trying to eliminate. More importantly, he is just one step removed from the leader of the organization and he has answers that Aislinn needs to put her past behind her. To survive and get what she needs, Aislinn will have to play Raphael’s game. Death is not an option, pitting Aislinn’s own desire to survive against her need to figure out who exactly was behind the murder of Aislinn’s father and sister all those years ago.

Book excerpt: With the murder of the serial killer known as The Ghost Maker, the serial killer club he ran became dormant. Now, someone calling themselves Mictlan the Collector has taken control of the defunct club. He’s arranged a competition for a select group of members. The serial killer with the most points at the end will win a million dollars in cryptocurrency, and he’s chosen Kansas City as the hunting grounds. Fearing this could happen after The Ghost Maker’s death, the NSA had an operative infiltrate the nefarious club. The operative gives the SCTU advanced warning of the competition. To stop it, Aislinn Cain and the SCTU must identify and capture Mictlan the Collector before the first day. Identifying and capturing a serial killer is never easy and Mictlan complicates the issue by requiring competitors to take a victim to gain admittance. The competitors have less than one week to complete the entrance task, which divides the resources of the SCTU between trying to identify Mictlan the Collector and identifying the serial killers participating in the competition. For a chance at a million dollars in cryptocurrency, serial killers will travel far and wide to participate. With visiting serial killers comes new signature methods requiring the SCTU to reach out to their law enforcement contacts all over the world to at least attempt to find their place of origin and gain any files on them that might exist.

Convinced that martial law will result in more deaths than the competition, the SCTU is racing against the ticking clock, fighting their limited manpower, and extreme panic to save their home city from becoming a grisly battlefield.

Instead, when she got to the border, she learned her passport had been flagged and she was sent home while her husband crossed the border alone. But there is always something to be done in Kansas City and Alex has a new case. A professor recorded video of a UFO and then two strange men dressed all in black threatened his family and took the video. Nadine joins the investigation into the Men in Black. As they search, one of Daniels’ Security’s regular clients calls in with a weird problem; someone is taking her fence apart from the outside in the middle of the night. The client is convinced they are determined to dognap her dogs and Nadine is quick to dismiss it as a prank until she discovers the client lives in the same neighborhood as the professor and they know each other. It seems unlikely the two things are related, but Nadine has a feeling that something else, something bigger, is going on. Especially when her and Alex discover the real identities of the men in black. Now, they will have to dig through the conspiracies to find the truth behind the UFO encounter, the fence being taken down one board at a time, and the Men in Black.
