Book Description
A People Magazine "Book of the Week." "Jessica Treadway draws her characters into an impossible knot and then expertly teases apart...kept me up half the night." -- Ann Patchett, New York Times bestselling author of Commonwealth Fans of Reconstructing Amelia will love this pulse-pounding novel of mystery, betrayal, and a small town's dark secrets. On a cold December day, the body of high school senior Joy Enright is discovered in the woods at the edge of a frozen pond. Her death looks like a tragic drowning accident at first, but an autopsy reveals something sinister -- the teenager's body shows unmistakable signs of strangulation. The discovery upends an otherwise uneventful small town, as police grapple with a rare homicide case and those closest to Joy wonder how she could have been taken from them -- and by whom. Susanne, Joy's mother, tries to reconcile past betrayals with their wrenching consequences. Martin, an African-American graduate student, faces ostracism when blame is cast on him. Tom, a rescue diver and son-in-law of the town's police chief, doubts both the police's methods and his own perceptions. And Harper, Joy's best friend, tries to figure out why she disappeared from Harper's life months before she actually went missing. In a close-knit community where everyone knows someone else's secret, it's only a matter of time before the truth is exposed. In this gripping novel, author Jessica Treadway explore the ways in which families both thrive and falter, and how seemingly small bad choices can escalate - with fatal consequences.

The Complete Seymour
Author: Peter J. Seymour
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 0803277059
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 815
Book Description
Peter J. Seymour was a Salish storyteller. He carried forward earlier tales of elders along with his own experiences as fewer and fewer native speakers were sharing the Colville-Okanagan language and oral literature. To thwart the demise of this language, over the course of a decade he passed along Salish stories not only to his family but also to linguist Anthony Mattina. The Complete Seymour: Colville Storyteller includes Seymour’s tales collected in the late 1960s and early 1970s, before his death. It documents Seymour’s rich storytelling and includes detailed morphological analyses and translations of this endangered language. This collection is an important addition to the canon of Native American narratives and literature and an essential volume for anyone studying Salish languages and linguistics.

A Collection
Author: M. Schottenbauer
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 1484996925
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 41
Book Description
This book consists of a collection of short stories and poems from the author's childhood and teen years, as well as more recent artwork. Short stories include two variations on "The Legend of Peter Borka," the title of a separate novel by the same author. These two short stories include similar ideas as the full-length novel, with variations. One is written as a piece of fictitious investigative journalism, and the other is written in a more contemporary style. Poems include "They," a reflection on worldwide conflict such as that found in the Middle East. This poem embodies a linguistic perspective on the relationship between psychology and interpersonal relationships. A second poem, "The Greatest Spy," written in 1988, was inspired by then Vice-President George Bush, former CIA Director who was elected President of the United States later that year. Artwork includes a variety of architecture, still-lifes, and sketches of produce and product displays, all dedicated to the artist's father, who worked for the Defense Commissary Agency and taught the author how to draw house plans and build houses as a child and youth, in-between home lectures on economics and assorted military topics.
