But even if the case is seemingly cut-and-dry, Flynn is reluctant to arrest the only suspect that stands before him. Now under the detective’s watchful eye, Fletch must try to clear his name and search for the missing paintings, all while his gorgeous future mother-in-law works to persuade him for help the best way she knows how—seduction.

Book Synopsis The Conservation Revolution by : Bram Buscher
Download or read book The Conservation Revolution written by Bram Buscher and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2020-02-11 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A post-capitalist manifesto for conservation Conservation needs a revolution. This is the only way it can contribute to the drastic transformations needed to come to a truly sustainable model of development. The good news is that conservation is ready for revolution. Heated debates about the rise of the Anthropocene and the current ‘sixth extinction’ crisis demonstrate an urgent need and desire to move beyond mainstream approaches. Yet the conservation community is deeply divided over where to go from here. Some want to place ‘half earth’ into protected areas. Others want to move away from parks to focus on unexpected and ‘new’ natures. Many believe conservation requires full integration into capitalist production processes. Building a razor-sharp critique of current conservation proposals and their contradictions, Büscher and Fletcher argue that the Anthropocene challenge demands something bigger, better and bolder. Something truly revolutionary. They propose convivial conservation as the way forward. This approach goes beyond protected areas and faith in markets to incorporate the needs of humans and nonhumans within integrated and just landscapes. Theoretically astute and practically relevant, The Conservation Revolution offers a manifesto for conservation in the twenty-first century—a clarion call that cannot be ignored.

Book excerpt: "Help me," the girl cries, alone in the forest, shivering in her nightgown, her small frame almost lost between the trees. "Please." When Detective Casey White discovers the body of a beautiful teenage girl in a white nightgown near the shoreline in North Carolina's Outer Banks, a familiar fear floods through her. Could this be Hannah, her sweet, blue-eyed daughter snatched from home fourteen years ago? But it only takes one look to confirm that the girl with dark bruising around her throat is another family's tragedy. Putting her own grief aside, Casey digs into unsolved missing child cases in the area. The victim is Cheryl Parry, one of two little girls taken during a family beach vacation nine years ago. Her sister's body was found strangled a week later, but someone has been keeping Cheryl alive--until now. Fearful there may be other innocent lives in danger, Casey and her team work around the clock to trace the material from Cheryl's nightgown, but hit a dead end and don't know where to turn. Then, another teenager's body is found in a nearby pine forest, dressed all in white. It's suddenly clear that a twisted killer has been hiding in the Outer Banks for years, and he will strike again. Casey painstakingly combs the forest soil for clues to the killer's next move, but nothing prepares her for what she finds: a buried charm bracelet exactly matching one that her little Hannah always wore--right down to the broken star charm by the clasp...
