Book Description
A forty-year-old skeleton is found encased in a concrete slab at a recently decommissioned nuclear energy site. It becomes a case for the Vermont Bureau of Investigation (VBI) and its leader, Joe Gunther, since they have the resources and the ability to investigate an old, very cold, missing persons case that has now been reclassified as murder. The victim was Hank Mitchell, and Gunther must chase down old rumors and speculations—who benefited from his death and the disappearance of his body? And was his death somehow tied to New York City mafia money being laundered through the construction project? But what seems the coldest of cold cases roars back to life when one of the central figures in this mystery is shot to death, right after speaking with Gunther. And when a young police officer—the son of VBI investigator Lester Spinney—is kidnapped, is that meant to be a warning to the VBI team to drop the case? After all these many years, the truth behind the murder still has to the power to kill, and it’s up to Gunther and his team to capture the living and finally put the dead to rest.

Presumption: An Entertainment

Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022604081X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
“An elegant emulation and continuation of Pride and Prejudice . . . shows how sequel-writing can, like parody, be a sharp exercise in literary appreciation.” —Times Literary Supplement This witty sequel to Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice follows the fate of Georgiana Darcy, Mr. Darcy’s younger sister, who must choose between two suitors, a well-placed navy captain and a brash young architect. Masterfully adapted to Austen’s original nineteenth-century style, Presumption brings back to life the book’s most memorable characters, the Bennets, Darcys, Collins, and de Bourghs. Julia Barrett is a pseudonym for Julia Braun Kessler and Gabrielle Donnelly. “Elizabeth’s intense embarrassment for her family, Darcy’s latent heroism and the miscellaneous barbarisms of the Bennet and Darcy clans . . . are energetically and often quite delightfully handled, evoking the spirit of Pride and Prejudice.” —The New York Times Book Review “Presumption’s style . . . evokes Jane Austen’s dry wit . . . [It] moves briskly along, highlighted by the unwitting comic genius of Georgiana’s imperious aunt, Lady Catherine de Bourgh.” —Los Angeles Times Book Review “A boon to anyone who has every yearned for one more in the Jane Austen canon.” —Cynthia Ozick, New York Times–bestselling author “A witty, amusing sequel to Pride and Prejudice . . . For Austen lovers not affronted by the whole concept, a pleasant diversion. Otherwise, a stylish entertainment that may lead some to the unsurpassable Jane.” —Kirkus Reviews “Barrett expertly captures Austen’s ironic voice and subject matter in a book that is sure to delight and intrigue most Austen devotees. Highly recommended.” —Library Journal

Book Description
Just one person can save the children from a terrifying future. But to do so, she must master her past. Beth Wright, a newspaper reporter, is hot on the trail of a story that could expose something very ugly at the St. Clair Children’s Home. Someone else is hot on Beth Wright’s trail—someone who wants to make sure her story never sees the press. Between them stands Nick Hutchins, a social worker who finds his own gut hunches about the children’s home increasingly confirmed, first by Beth’s investigation . . . then by a high-speed attempt on her life . . . and finally, by an intruder’s startling confession. As the drama unfolds, a horrifying picture emerges of helpless children under the sway of a modern-day Fagin. Just one person holds the key that can save them: Beth herself. But using that key could cost Beth her reputation . . . if it doesn’t first cost her life. Presumption of Guilt is a gripping portrayal of the depths of human evil, the soul-twisting influence of lies . . . and of the liberating power of truth and the far-reaching freedom of God’s mercy and grace. Presumption of Guilt is book four in the Sun Coast Chronicles by award-winning author Terri Blackstock. From absorbing legal drama to lightning-paced action, the Sun Coast Chronicles offers suspense at its finest, tempered with remarkable realism and penetrating insights into the human heart.

Within a Presumption of Godlessness
Author: Tom Dauria
Publisher: Archway Publishing
ISBN: 1480804215
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
This book presents compelling evidence that we can still believe in God. We must ?rst realize, however, that there is a parallel force opposing good. Good is complacent whereas evil is relentless and determined. Within mindlessness, evil is normal, natural, and always. Evil is a negative, not a positive; it is merely the absence of goodness, of God. It is relentless only in that it is ever present and waiting as darkness is always present without light as is cold nothing but the absence of warmth as is absolute zero outside the universe and Gods creation. Within man, evil seeks every opportunity to campaign. It infests media, literature, and academia. It attempts through the proliferation of media outlets to convince that there is no evil and no God. The results of this campaign are obvious. In modern societies in which more money and time are spent on care and concern for youth than ever before, children are ever more lost and confused, and for the ?rst time in history are killing each other. They are being taught via the media and in schools to hatehate Christianity, hate Christians and Jews, hate church and religion, hate the Bible and commandments, hate democracy and freedom. They are not being taught the truth or being shown the evidence for the existence of God.
