Book Synopsis Crimeucopia - Say What Now? by : Various Authors
Download or read book Crimeucopia - Say What Now? written by Various Authors and published by Murderous Ink Press. This book was released on 2022-03-08 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Point in Every Direction.... Sometimes editors are forced to reject submissions through no fault of the author. It could be a wonderfully written manuscript, but if the editor cannot place it, then what do they do? MIP has been lucky in its flexibility and its "Can we start a new project with this?" attitude. That flexibility has led us to go from a proposed quarterly publication timetable, to publishing this, our 10th in the 12 months we have been fully active. Some of the dozen authors contained within are seasoned professionals, having been published in the likes of Alfred Hitchcock's, Ellery Queen's, or other notable publications, while some are making their publishing debuts as Crimeucopians. And while the quality throughout remains exceedingly high, the subject spectrum is the widest we've published so far. But that's only fitting when you consider that the theme of this Crimeucopa is that of No Theme At All. Featuring: Peter Ullian, S. E. Bailey, N. M. Cedeño, Edward St Boniface, Jan Glaz, Eleanor Luke, Momodou Bah, Eve Fisher, John M. Floyd, Joan Leotta, Glen Bush and DL Shirey And in true Murderous Ink fashion, with a dozen authors to choose from, you're bound to find something you'll like, and something you didn't know you'd like until you've read it.

Book excerpt: Women are fierce and fed-up, and they have been joining hands together for the purposes of societal change for as long as there has been injustice. Women of faith are guided by the Holy Spirit to work together to bring down these injustices, to build on the foundation Christ laid for the beloved community of God on earth. This book is women joining together to speak and act in new ways in response to the increasing challenges of our day.

When we pray together and act together, we claim a new vision for how things can be - a vision God gives us through Scripture. We can support both ourselves and other women as we learn to find and claim our voices and end the silences imposed upon us. Speaking Truth: • Provides inspirational writings by women for women to face the societal challenges specific to today. • Includes prayers, devotions, scriptures, and inspirational quotes for special challenges. • Encourages women supporting, advocating, and praying for other women.

When fifteen years later Gail is brutally raped and murdered in her shabby New York basement apartment, practically on the eve of her big breakthrough as a singer, Ellen is inconsolable.

She contemplates suicide as a way to be with them, and to end her unrelenting pain. In a last desperate effort to find peace, she drives to Loon Lake where they last vacationed together, wanting to believe they will be waiting for her there. At least in spirit. Barring that, the pills Doctor Gregory gave her to help her sleep, are in her purse. The cabin at Loon Lake was her and Corey's secret hideaway, and not even Abby's sister, Karen, to whom she is close, knows where it is. But someone else does. He is one of three men who have escaped from Pennington prison. They are dangerous predators who will stop at nothing to get what they want - and to keep from going back to prison. Having already committed the worst of crimes, they have nothing to lose. Unknowingly, Abby is on a collision course with evil itself. And the decision of whether to live or die will soon be wrenched from her hands. Ms. Hall Hovey is a superb writer. She is a real story teller. The suspense & tension she creates in her books make them real page turners. Her talent for characterisation involves the reader emotionally in her characters' lives and their stories. Her genuine understanding and empathy for human nature and the human condition pervade her work. Her adept ability to continually surprise make this talented artist and her work extremely compelling. These are the reasons why her fans love her and are extremely faithful, and are always waiting for her next book. (Marion Rand, Kindle Edition)

Book Synopsis Crimeucopia - The Cosy Nostra by : Various Authors
Download or read book Crimeucopia - The Cosy Nostra written by Various Authors and published by Murderous Ink Press. This book was released on 2021-07-30 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They Don't Write 'em Like That Anymore... Actually they do, Aunty Jean. Cosy Crime has spanned the literary centuries and now due to its popularity, over a physical century as well. Yet what constitutes a Cosy? Is it bounded by the Golden Age as presided over by Queen Agatha, Dame Sayers or Countess Marsh? Georgette Heyer stepped out of the Regency period to complete six very passable crime novels... But is the Cosy now something that has actually transcended the Golden Age time period and matured into an acceptably modern crime sub-genre. Does it always need the Downton Abbey touches of country mansion, old upper crust family, downstairs unrest, and the usual collection of nefarious butlers who always seem to have 'done it', whatever 'it' might be? Or is that 'predictability' what makes a cosy comfortably cosy? Or annoyingly so? And let's be honest, who hasn't at some time wished that Lord Peter would take a .32 between the eyes when the plot becomes more twisted than a corkscrew hazel? 17 writers take us on Cosy journeys - some more traditional, while others are very much up to date.

Download or read book Global Perspectives on Gender and Work written by Jacqueline Goodman and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2000-04-16 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Central to all our lives, work affects our status in the state, the family, and the economy. This comprehensive reader examines the myriad ways in which work—whether it is well-paid, unpaid, or underpaid—profoundly influences our roles in both the public and private spheres. Jacqueline Goodman has selected a key set of essays that examine influential arguments on such central themes as (1) the origins of the gendered division of labor; (2) historical trends and economic transformations that affect and are affected by women's position in market and non-market work; (3) the effects of occupational and job segregation by sex on status, pay, and promotion; (4) the ways in which formal and informal organizational culture shape and in turn are shaped by gender in professional and managerial positions; (5) class consciousness among wage-earning men and women; (6) the different forms of gender discrimination that women and men face in the workplace; (7) the problems working parents face and the ways in which different societies, subcultures, and genders cope; and (8) alternative approaches to improving the lives of working women and their families in the global economy. With its rich interdisciplinary perspective, this text is ideal for courses in sociology, political science, anthropology, and women's and gender studies.
