Download or read book Murder Suicide Or Accident written by Faye B. Ball and published by . This book was released on 2004-08-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a fictional book based on actual events that took place in our lives and the lives of our families. It is a story of two people who had completely drifted apart, virtually overnight. Roger's wife Sandra turning into someone none of us knew. She was throwing her life away, a life her and her husband had invested twenty-five years in. Only she knew for what. The lies she told about her husband always had a motive. She wanted everything, and if it took cheating and lying, so be it. Sandra wanted people to believe Roger was abusing her, so people would feel sorry for her. It also would pave the way for her to even try and kill Roger and have an alibi. But as she told her daughter it had all backfired on her. Abuse is a word most times relating to women and children, but sometimes it's just a word nothing more. It was used a lot in the lives of our friends, but most of it was lies. People change, not always for the good. They say and do horrible things to each other. Even by accident, I hope you can understand the love one man had for his wife and the price they both paid. The changes Sandra went through; made no sense until we realized there was another man in her life. A lot of lives would have been changed and a lot of hearts would not have been broken. In the end we were all left with empty hearts and bitterness. No matter how much we uncovered it still didn't help us when we needed answers. That is why Only God Knew

Book Synopsis Murder, Suicide Or Accident by : Bernard Knight
Download or read book Murder, Suicide Or Accident written by Bernard Knight and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-09 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What exactly does a forensic pathologist do? Written under a pseudonym by a practising full-time forensic pathologist and ex-Home Office consultant, the "inside story" is given for the first time of this macabre, yet vital profession which contributes to keeping Britain a country with one of the lowest murder rates in the world. However, murder, although the topic which attracts all the publicity, is the smallest part of the function of a forensic pathologist. The major part of his work concerns the investigation of other causes of sudden death - accidents, suicides and natural disease. These pages show how the community is best served by the careful reconstruction of traffic, domestic and industrial accidents and the documentation of natural diseases which adds to the sum total of preventive medical knowledge. In spite of the relative rarity of murder investigations, a large part of the book is devoted to details of how the pathologist goes about his examination of the scene of a crime, the identification of the victim and the interpretation of the common methods of homicide. The author shows how specialised medical experience assists in the reconstruction of deaths, whether it be by bullet, knife or rope, and he describes the salient features of death associated with sexual crimes, abortion and infant deaths. Praise for Murder, Suicide or Accident: 'A host of incredible stories' - The Evening News 'The information is accurate... and readable.' - The Pathology Review Professor Bernard Henry Knight (born 1931) is a celebrated pathologist and author of over more than 30 novels and television scripts. After becoming a Home Office pathologist he remained in his role for 43 years, conducting over 25,000 autopsies and assisting with some of Britain's most notorious murder cases, including the Fred and Rosemary West murders and the first cases to use DNA for evidence of identity. In 1980 he was appointed as Professor of Forensic Pathology at the University of Wales College of Medicine.

He published dozens of novels and hundreds of short stories in the pulp magazines of the early 20th century, thrilling millions of readers throughout the world. He wrote with authority about exotic peoples and places because he had lived a life filled with adventure, serving in the British army and travelling extensively to exotic locales before settling down to a literary career.

"A Charmed Life" tells of one life-changing night in India, when a white man glimpses and beautiful woman in danger and acts to rescue her. "Framed at the Benefactor's Club" is a fascinating, intricately plotted mystery set in Manhattan. "The Yellow Wife" is a chilling look at Chinese life in Chinatown. "Bismallah!" is a light adventure in Africa, as crooked traders try to put a successful rival company out of business. "Light" is a surprisingly effective supernatural tale. "A Yarkand Survey" tells the story of a corrupt governor who is sent on a survey mission that might cost him his life -- if he isn't careful! And "Fear" is the tale of two thieving white men in Africa and the weird fates that awaited them.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Goldfinch comes an utterly riveting novel set in Mississippi of childhood, innocence, and evil. • “Destined to become a special kind of classic.” —The New York Times Book Review The setting is Alexandria, Mississippi, where one Mother’s Day a little boy named Robin Cleve Dufresnes was found hanging from a tree in his parents’ yard. Twelve years later Robin’s murder is still unsolved and his family remains devastated. So it is that Robin’s sister Harriet—unnervingly bright, insufferably determined, and unduly influenced by the fiction of Kipling and Robert Louis Stevenson--sets out to unmask his killer. Aided only by her worshipful friend Hely, Harriet crosses her town’s rigid lines of race and caste and burrows deep into her family’s history of loss. Filled with hairpin turns of plot and “a bustling, ridiculous humanity worthy of Dickens” (The New York Times Book Review), The Little Friend is a work of myriad enchantments by a writer of prodigious talent.

Book Synopsis Violent Death in the City by : Roger Lane
Download or read book Violent Death in the City written by Roger Lane and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1979 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roger Lane uses the statistics on violent death in Philadelphia from 1839 to 1901 to study the behavior of the living. His extensive research into murder, suicide, and accident rates in Philadelphia provides an excellent factual foundation for his theories. A computerized study of every homicide indictment during the sixty-two years covered is the source of the most detailed information. Analysis of suicide and accident statistics reveals differences in behavior patterns between the sexes, the races, young and old, professional and laborer, native and immigrant, and how these patterns changed overtime. Using both these group differences and the changing overall incidence of the three forms of death, Lane synthesizes a comprehensive theory of the influences of industrial urbanization on social behavior. He believes that the demands of the rising industrial system, as transmitted through factory, school, and bureaucracy, combined to socialize city dwellers in new ways, to raise the rate of suicide, and to lower rates of simple accident and murder. Finally, Lane suggests a relation between these developments and the violent disorder in the postindustrial city, which has lost the older mechanisms of socialization without finding any effective new ones. Original and probing, Lane's combination of statistics and theory makes this a significant new work in social, urban, and medical history.

It’s 1491. In the small village of Oakham, its wealthiest and most industrious resident, Tom Newman, is swept away by the river during the early hours of Shrove Saturday. Was it murder, suicide, or an accident? Narrated from the perspective of local priest John Reve—patient shepherd to his wayward flock—a shadowy portrait of the community comes to light through its residents’ tortured revelations. As some of their darkest secrets are revealed, the intrigue of the unexplained death ripples through the congregation. But will Reve, a man with secrets of his own, discover what happened to Newman? And what will happen if he can’t? Written with timeless eloquence, steeped in the spiritual traditions of the Middle Ages, and brimming with propulsive suspense, The Western Wind finds Samantha Harvey at the pinnacle of her outstanding novelistic power. “Beautifully rendered, deeply affecting, thoroughly thoughtful and surprisingly prescient . . . a story of a community crowded with shadows and secrets.” —The New York Times Book Review “Ms. Harvey has summoned this remote world with writing of the highest quality, conjuring its pungencies and peculiarities.” —The Wall Street Journal “Brings medieval England back to life.” —The Washington Post
