Book Description
A woman imprisoned for murder must rely on a cold case investigator to clear her name in this tense crime thriller. When Carrie was accused of brutally murdering her husband’s lover, she denied it. Even when they found her blood inside his house. Even when they sent her to prison. Now three years into her fifteen-year sentence, she’s gradually losing hope and separated from her pregnant daughter. Tess works for a charity that helps clear people wrongfully convicted of crimes. Though the charity has accepted Carrie’s case, Tess has learned not to trust too easily—her assumption is that “they’re all lying.” Meanwhile, Tess is also mentoring Avril, a naïve young investigator-in-training. When new information comes to light that could prove Carrie’s innocence, the cold case is blown wide open. But as Tess and Avril work the case, re-interviewing witnesses and questioning every assumption, the tension ratchets up in both the case and Tess’s personal life.

Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
In this incisive blend of personal narrative and philosophical inquiry, journalist and activist Barrett Holmes Pitner seeks a new way to talk about racism in America An NPR Best Book of the Year Can new language reshape our understanding of the past and expand the possibilities of the future? The Crime Without a Name follows Pitner’s journey to identify and remedy the linguistic void in how we discuss race and culture in the United States. Ethnocide, first coined in 1944 by Jewish exile Raphael Lemkin (who also coined the term "genocide"), describes the systemic erasure of a people’s ancestral culture. For Black Americans, who have endured this atrocity for generations, this erasure dates back to the transatlantic slave trade and reached new resonance in a post-Trump world.

Pages : 465
Book Description
Kate Skylar is an ordinary seventeen-year-old with an extraordinary destiny. A virgin, Kate suddenly finds herself pregnant with what she believes is the Son of God. But the Catholic Church is convinced Kate is carrying the Antichrist and, assisted by an artificial intelligence known as Grand Inquisitor, will stop at nothing to kill Ethan, her son. Ethan’s only protection is Conversatio, a secret organization dedicated to the Second Coming—which may have its own dark agenda. As Ethan grows up in anonymity, ignorant of his true identity and not knowing whom to trust, he must come to terms with his miraculous abilities and make a fateful choice that will determine the future of all mankind. And for Kate, an equally difficult struggle looms, as well as a mother’s devastating choice. Godsent is a wild religious thriller, a page-turner that keeps you guessing until the very last page. Burton, in his fiction debut, crafts a tightly-wound narrative with a heart-pounding plot and emotional resonance that will ring true to anyone with children of their own, all while the fate of humanity hangs in the balance.
