This is the first novel in a crime/mystery series set in a fictional town in north-east Scotland called Cairnburgh. The books feature Detective Chief Inspector Jack Carston, happily married to his photographer wife, Kath, whose good humour and common sense act as a perfect stabilising mechanism which makes him more able to accept the depressing evidence of man's inhumanity to man with which he's constantly confronted in his job.
Stephanie Burnham's mutilated body is discovered by her husband. A chair's overturned, books are scattered around and there are other, more sinister signs of what must have happened. For Carston, newly arrived in Scotland, the case is a conundrum. The evidence points to the husband - the marriage was a sham, they both had lovers - but his alibi is sound.
And there are too many other threads to be followed, not least the mystery of the woman herself. What was she? A high-flying businesswoman or a middle-aged drunken depressive? Sexy or frigid, intelligent or stupid, callous or loving? It seems to depend on who's answering his questions. To solve the mystery of her death, Carston first needs to find out who she was.
In his review of Material Evidence, the critic of the Press and Journal wrote: 'The story concerns murder and adultery in the Aberdeen commuter town of Cairnburgh. But who did what to whom? That's what DCI Carston has to unravel. Fine Rendellian touches and a structure and depth that is rare in a first book make this a cracking page-turner. The denouement, when it comes, will shake you.'
Автор: Kirton MS Ruth Ann Название: Meditations on the Republic ISBN: 0615617700 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780615617701 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 11370.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Meditations on the Republic is a book of poetic fiction and satire, by Ruth Ann Kirton, and is a part of the author's Vanity Toombs Chronicles series. It is a series that uses fiction to chronicle life in the African-American community from the point of view of various segments of the community, particularly those that usually go unheard. In Meditations on the Republic, Poetry from the Vanity Toombs Chronicles, Vol. 1., the author offers philosophical thoughts on the state of the Republic with a whimsical twist that imagines the U.S.A. under covert National Socialism. Through poetry she opens up a prophetic debate and discussion on Democracy in the U.S.A. from the point of view of various segments of the population that live with its results, particularly the poor. The author welcomes rebuttals and is available for speaking engagements/tours. The premise of her argument is that the State of the Union is beginning to lean towards a Socialist ideology, which may one day become a full-blown Democratic Socialist Society. She describes a world in which the government has inserted itself into the American citizen's life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness through an ever- increasing expansion of centralized government into every aspect of American life and Constitutional freedoms. Through the use of government programs that often do more harm than good, systemic corruption becomes entrenched in the culture. The author encourages government reform through due process of law and order. She inspires Americans to remain civilized and hang in there, believing that the current unrest in the country shall pass, and, as always, Americans shall overcome. She rejects the idea that to make progress Americans need to break the rules, break faith with the Constitution, and divide themselves into the "haves" and the "have-nots", "Royalty" and "Slaves". Instead, the author believes that we the people, are at our best when we keep the Union together and focus on making it more perfect, rather than tearing down its strongholds, namely the rule of law and the Constitution. The poetry in Meditations on the Republic is Ruth Ann Kirton's first published book. Some of the poems include: Meditations on the Republic Part 1 & 2, Too deep for me Part 1 & 2, Is this a con-spiracy?, To tell the T-Ruth, Why the Black Peoples are still in the Ghetto, Peasants and Po-Cats, What's left to overcome?...dumb di, dumb di, da bull "Dum Diversas"... , and I be's compelled to say what I gots to say. (Portions written in the slave vernacular of the Antebellum South.) Ruth Ann Kirton attributes most of her success in life to the start her foster- mother Georgia Ella Coleman gave her and hopes that through her work she will show others that success is still possible in America today. Her follow-up publication from the Vanity Toombs Chronicles, Vol. 2 will be the novel September Miracle. It is scheduled for release in fall 2012 and will be available on amazon.com, on Kindle enabled devices, at the Createspace e-store at http: //www.po-catandpeasantpublishinginc.net and http: www.po-catandpeasantpublishinginc .mobi

Описание: When a death is investigated by a coroner, what is the place of the family in that process?
This accessibly written book draws together empirical, theoretical and historical perspectives to develop a rich, nuanced analysis of the contemporary inquest system in England and Wales. It investigates theories of kinship drawn from socio-legal research and analyses law, accountability and the legal process.
Excerpts of conversations with coroners and officers offer real insights into how the role of family can be understood and who family is perceived to be, and how their participation fundamentally shapes the investigation into a death.

Juanita Kirton's poetry collection is compelling, delivering a story of opposing forces of love and betrayal. The poems are brave and courageous and are found in tight spaces of kitchens, a church and a child's heart. Kirton breaks the barriers of silence and holds her own, turning the silence of despair into the found voice of a female spiritual warrior. She uses language so close to the bone, you feel as if you are on a motorcycle with her in the poem titled, "Back Seat". This collection is magnificent, a must read.
