Book excerpt: From acclaimed thriller writer Sarah Lotz, hailed by Stephen King as "vastly entertaining," a new novel about a group of amateur detectives infiltrated by the sadistic killer whose crimes they're investigating. Reclusive bookseller Shaun Ryan has always believed that his uncle Teddy died in a car accident twenty years ago. Then he learns the truth: Teddy fled his home in Catholic, deeply conservative County Wicklow, Ireland, for New York and hasn't been heard from since. None of Shaun's relatives will reveal why they lied about his uncle's death or why they want Shaun to leave the whole affair alone. But Shaun has a burning need to find out the truth. His search is unsuccessful until he's contacted by Chris Guzman, a woman who runs a website dedicated to matching missing-persons cases with unidentified bodies. Chris and her team of cold-case obsessives suspect that Shaun is looking for the "Boy in the Dress," one victim in a series of gay men murdered by the same killer. But who are these internet fanatics really, and how do they know so much about a case that has stumped police for decades? Soon armchair sleuths and professional investigators are on a collision course with a sadistic serial killer who's gotten away with his crimes for far too long - and now they're in his sights.
Download or read book Get off the Grass written by Shaun Hendy and published by Auckland University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a brilliant intellectual adventure that ranges from David Ricardo and Adam Smith to economic geography and the science of complex networks, Shaun Hendy and Paul Callaghan explore how New Zealanders can learn to live off knowledge rather than nature. The key to increasing New Zealand's prosperity, they argue, is innovation in high-tech niches. To catch up with the countries that lure young Kiwis away, New Zealand needs to start innovating like a city of four million people; it needs to start taking science seriously; it needs to start seeing its people as people of learning, not just of the land. Get off the Grass provides a readable introduction to a wide variety of ideas including economic geography, network theory, and complexity theory; offers unique insights into the New Zealand economy and its long-term prospects; adds to current debates worldwide about innovation, science, economic growth, and networks.

Download or read book Trust written by Jeanne Ryckmans and published by Upswell. This book was released on 2023-08-01 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A darkly funny memoir and investigation into the charms and crimes of the untrustworthy Romance scams, pyramid schemes, bogus debts and fake news, the world is awash with confidence tricksters and swindlers. But what happens if the fraudster is your lover? It has been said that trust is a risk masquerading as a promise and, as Hemingway suggested, 'The way to make people trust-worthy is to trust them'. Once we have fallen under the spell of malevolent hucksters, their power is real, as is the loss of self and hope when the spell breaks. A hybrid memoir and a personal detective story, Trust is an exploration of what it means to trust, why we trust, and what happens when trust is betrayed. With a particular view to fraud and corruption within the hallowed walls of sandstone universities, Ryckmans brings to light the oft subtle, brutal nature of control that fraudsters have over their victims, and shows the deep impacts their actions have on others personally and professionally. The cover up -- sometimes said to be worse than the crime -- has insidious effects. Trust is a fractured fable. It is darkly funny, wistful, and spare in tone and approach. 'The extraordinary story of an Irish Ripley, a fraudster and conman who fooled central banks, elite universities, major companies and scores of individual business leaders is in itself captivating and astounding, but he also plied a series of smart sophisticated women with seductive invitations, extravagant gifts and lashings of Yeats and, as Jeanne Ryckmans so deftly reconstructs, it all fell apart when he got violent with her.' - Anne Summers, author of Damned Whores and God's Police 'I read it in one sitting and loved loved loved it. Truly. It is beautifully and cleverly told, and the various devices -- the poetry, the nicknames, the world-wandering, the little hands, the carpets, Paddington -- all work splendidly; - Simon Winchester, author of The Professor and the Madman 'Vivid and transparent. Deft. I was absolutely hooked from the first paragraph, and the creeping sense that something was amiss was masterful. The fundamental power is the unflinching basis in truth.' - Professor Joanna Benjamin, Emeritus Professor of Law, The London School of Economics

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: KEER-AAASSSH! Did Shaun’s overloaded go-kart propel the Flock into . . . the past? A wry and rollicking new episode featuring the charming stars of Shaun the Sheep. Shaun has a great idea! Take a wonky stroller wheel, an old car seat, a flimsy parachute, and other pieces of rubbish, and the Mossy Bottom Flyer is ready to go. But when the rest of the Flock leaps on and they all careen into a wall, Shaun can hardly believe what he sees: a yellow chick on the rooster perch, an old-fashioned horse cart trundling by, and the normally balding Farmer sporting red hair, a bushy beard . . . and an earring! What’s more, the young Farmer is clueless, attempting to milk a bull (“Oooooo!”) and shearing Shirley to look like a poodle. Clearly they’ve sped through the space-time vortex back to a time when the Farmer was just beginning to farm. But what if he gives up and the Flock never has a chance to exist? Can Shaun persuade the Flock to work night and day to keep the farm running—and get their go-kart back on the road?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saturday, November 14, 5:00 A.M. In the small Adirondack town of Millers Kill, an old lumberman sits in the dark with his gun across his knees. Not far away, an unemployed logger sleeps off his bender from the night before. The owner of the town's last paper mill tosses in his bed. And a young woman, one of three heirs to the 250,000-acre Great Camp, wakes alone in darkness, bound and gagged. Chief of Police Russ Van Alstyne wants nothing more than a quiet day of hunting in the mountains on his fiftieth birthday. His wife needs to have the town's new luxury resort ready for its gala opening night. The Reverend Clare Fergusson expects to spend the day getting St. Alban's Church ready for the bishop's annual visit. Her long-distance suitor from New York expects some answers about their relationship during his weekend in town. In Millers Kill, where everyone knows everyone and all are part of an interconnected web of blood or acquaintance, one person's troubles have a way of ensnaring others. What begins as a simple case of a woman lost in the woods leads to a tangle of revenge, blackmail, assault, kidnapping, and murder. As the hours tick by, Russ and Clare struggle to make sense of their town's plunge into chaos---and their own chaotic emotions. Something terrible waits in the ice-rimed mountains cradling Millers Kill. Something that won't be content with just one death---or two. . . Julia Spencer-Fleming continues her moving story of the way a small town, as well as a great city, can harbor evil, and the struggle of two honest people to deal with the ever-present threat of their feelings for one another.
