Book excerpt: INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER A brilliantly plotted psychological crime novel about a missing child and the scandal that erupts in the aftermath with a shocking twist They know who did it. Perhaps not consciously. Perhaps not yet. But they know. When eight-year-old Daisy Mason vanishes from her family’s Oxford home during a costume party, Detective Inspector Adam Fawley knows that nine times out of ten, the offender is someone close to home. And Daisy’s family is certainly strange—her mother is obsessed with keeping up appearances, while her father is cold and defensive under questioning. And then there’s Daisy’s little brother, so withdrawn and uncommunicative . . . DI Fawley works against the clock to find any trace of the little girl, but it’s as if she disappeared into thin air—no one saw anything; no one knows anything. But everyone has an opinion, and everyone, it seems, has a secret to conceal. With a story that feels all too real, Close to Home is the best kind of suspense—the kind that sends chills down your spine and keeps you up late at night, thrilled and terrified.

Book Synopsis Closer to Perfect by : Justin Paul Fox
Download or read book Closer to Perfect written by Justin Paul Fox and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-12 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Closer to perfect is a poignant novella of both love and bereavement. Trying to recover from a loss of love, the narrator takes on a precise routine to the most minor detail. Weeks deep in this routine, he finds himself sitting at a café and notices someone not part of his monotonous flow of life, a beautiful woman. A successful writer, he builds a narrative around their potential meeting. First, he weaves a "happily-ever-after" fiction, quickly followed by a second creation that depicts the quintessential of a "love-gone-wrong." In creating these two tales, he realizes he has two choices; he can take a chance and meet her, or he can be content with imagining how perfect she might be. She could be as perfect as the first tale of love, or she could be as dreadful as the second tale of disappointment; but either way, the choice is his.

Book Synopsis Extinction and Religion by : Jeremy H. Kidwell
Download or read book Extinction and Religion written by Jeremy H. Kidwell and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-02 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human-caused extinctions have never been so prominent in our political and cultural landscape. Extinction and Religion is a collection of wide-ranging chapters that explore the implications for religious faith and experience as it relates to a "sixth mass extinction" in Earth's history. Further it seeks to answer the question as to how religious and spiritual practices are shaping responses to the crisis? Edited by Jeremy H. Kidwell and Stefan Skrimshire, this collection aims to set a new postsecular agenda, articulating the questions, challenges, and ways forward for thinking about religion in an age of mass extinction rather than provide responses from world religions in isolation. It covers subjects such as the multitude of challenges posed by mass extinction to beliefs about the future of humanity, death and the afterlife, the integrity of creation, and the relationship between human and nonhuman life. Wide ranging and incisive, Extinction and Religion amply demonstrates the many ways in which the threat of extinction profoundly affects our faith and religious life worlds.
