Pages : 103
Book Description
In the small town of Willow Creek, Detective Emily Parker is thrust into an investigation that shakes the community to its core. A series of perplexing deaths have struck fear into the hearts of its residents, as each victim boasts a solid alibi, making it seemingly impossible to directly link anyone to the crimes. Determined to bring justice to the victims and restore peace to her town, Emily embarks on a relentless pursuit of truth. As Emily delves deeper into her investigation, she unravels a twisted web of deception and hidden motives, shrouding the true identity of the perpetrator. In her quest for answers, she finds herself drawn closer to two key figures in Willow Creek. The first is Dr. Michael Reynolds, a highly respected psychiatrist known for his effective treatments and supposedly impeccable reputation. However, there is something about his demeanour that raises suspicion within Emily. The second figure is Sarah Lawson, an enigmatic artist with an uncanny ability to uncover the darkest secrets of those around her. Sarah seems to possess knowledge about each victim's hidden past, making Emily question whether she could be somehow connected to the murders. As Emily tries to gather evidence against these two suspects, she unwittingly becomes entangled in their dangerous psychological games. With every encounter, Emily's conviction strengthens, driving her further towards the belief that either Michael or Sarah is responsible for these heinous crimes plaguing Willow Creek. Yet, the more she uncovers, the more complicated the case becomes. Each twist turns her deeper into a labyrinth of secrets and double-crosses, forcing her to confront her vulnerabilities and question whom she can truly trust. As tension escalates in the once-peaceful town, Emily races against time to expose the elusive killer before more innocent lives are lost. With her determination unyielding and her intuition sharpened by every clue uncovered, she inches closer to unravelling the truth that lurks beneath the surface of Willow Creek. "Fatal Alibis" is a gripping crime novel that explores the depths of human nature and the lengths one detective will go to seek justice. It delves into the complexities of psychological manipulation and the enduring resilience of a detective determined to solve a case that challenges everything she thought she knew. Prepare yourself for a thrilling journey through twists and turns as Detective Emily Parker fights to unmask a serial killer hidden within the community she swore to protect.

Shadow over the Atlantic
Author: Robert Forsyth
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1472820460
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
German U-boats were the scourge of Allied merchant and military shipping in the Atlantic during World War II, threatening to isolate and then starve the UK out of the War. As Germany's war against the Allied convoys intensified in late 1943, German Admiral Karl Dönitz called upon the Luftwaffe to provide a long-range spotting and shadowing unit to act as 'eyes' for his U-boats. Equipped with big, four-engined Junkers Ju 290s fitted out with advanced search radar and other maritime 'ELINT' (electronic intelligence) devices, Fernaufklärungsgruppe (FAGr) 5 'Atlantik' undertook a distant, isolated campaign far out into the Atlantic and thousands of miles away from its home base in western France. The information generated and reported back to Dönitz's headquarters was vital to the efforts of the U-boats, and FAGr 5's 'shadowing' missions were assigned priority in terms of skilled crews, supplies and equipment. This book tells for the first time the fascinating story of the formation and operations of FAGr 5 'Atlantik', drawing on never-before-published historical records of the unit that accounted for the reporting and destruction of thousands of tons of Allied shipping.

Like a Fading Shadow
Author: Antonio Muñoz Molina
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 0374714169
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
A hypnotic novel intertwining the author’s past with James Earl Ray’s attempt to escape after shooting Martin Luther King Jr. The year is 1968 and James Earl Ray has just shot Martin Luther King Jr. For two months he evades authorities, driving to Canada, securing a fake passport, and flying to London, all while relishing the media’s confusion about his location and his image on the FBI’s Most Wanted list. Eventually he lands at the Hotel Portugal in Lisbon, where he anxiously awaits a visa to Angola. But the visa never comes, and for his last ten days of freedom, Ray walks around Lisbon, paying for his pleasures and rehearsing his fake identities. Using recently declassified FBI files, Antonio Muñoz Molina reconstructs Ray’s final steps through the Portuguese capital, taking us inside his feverish mind, troubled past, and infamous crime. But Lisbon is also the city that inspired Muñoz Molina’s first novel, A Winter in Lisbon, and as he returns now, thirty years later, it becomes the stage for and witness to three alternating stories: Ray in 1968 at the center of an international manhunt; a thirty-year-old Muñoz Molina in 1987 struggling to find his literary voice; and the author in the present, reflecting on his life and the form of the novel as an instrument for imagining the world through another person’s eyes. Part historical fiction, part fictional memoir, Like a Fading Shadow masterfully explores the borders between the imagined, the reported, and the experienced past in the construction of identity.
