While the detective and Sarah try to figure out why he received the letter, the first three bodies are discovered. Brutally murdered, with one of the victims tortured in a depraved manner, they learn why that homicide detective was chosen-he knew the victims personally.>Who is going after the detective's close friends with such malice?

He wrote a sure-fire bestseller-a novel that would sell millions. The world would not believe one man could be so creative. But New York's top publishers rejected it.

"A series of 29 short stories inspired by the vicissitudes of punishment in all its forms, its deliverers and recipients. Its universality across cultures and at every level of social life from the kitchen to the battlefield never ceases to amaze. The stories unveil the diverse motives and excuses for punishment that paradoxically form the foundation of that great shibboleth of humanity: justice. The stories range through childhood spats to military encounters,, family discourse and dysfunction, to the puzzle of how criminal justice manages to match a punishment to its respective crime (it can't). Taken together, the stories ask one seemingly silly question of human history: which came first, the crime or the punishment?"--

Georgia McAlpine recommends Maria Grigorescu - Author.Oct 18 -These short stories take you on a journey around the world and through so many time periods. Although many of the stories seem unrelatable on the surface, a sense of familiarity was provoked through each of the stories, a willingness to fit in and to find meaning both in our lives and in the weird and wonderful world that surrounds us - something which I think everyone can relate to. Some stories finish seemingly unresolved, yet this only contributes to the feeling of not fully understanding our environment and the people in it. It draws you to the next story, hoping that you'll find an answer there. The stories of Romania are eye-opening, while the fantasy stories are intriguing. There is something for everyone in this collection, particularly those who are feeling a little lost. *** Feelings in Staccato is a collection of stories inspired by imagination, dreams, hopes and life.

He gives in-depth discussions of the rise of National Socialism, their foreign policy, economics, and the underlying philosophy and ideals of the movement, including their views on race, religion, and on youth training and education. With numerous appendices featuring source documents in translation, this rare attempt at an objective view of Hitler's Germany, written before the outbreak of war by a scholar of German history and culture who was not a partisan of National Socialism, is a document of great historical value.Henri Lichtenberger (1864-1941) was a French scholar of German literature and history who taught at the Sorbonne and at Harvard. He was among the first to write on the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche, about whom he published widely throughout his life. He also wrote books on Heinrich Heine, Richard Wagner and Novalis, and translated the works of Goethe and the Nibelungenlied.

INTO LEGEND (TM) is a high fantasy tabletop role-playing game. It is purposely designed on the style of old world legends and fairy tales and classic fantasy fiction such as Lord of the Rings, The Shannarah Series, Earthsea, Narnia, and so on. It also retains much that originally made role-playing games so much fun, with magic-using trades distinct from other fantasy tropes such as the thief, the fighter, the ranger, the assassin, etc. It's a d100-based, modifier-centric system with a unique character-build path that calls for a minimum of randomization and maximum customization, allowing for the most control of the player in creating the avatar that best suits them.The Core Rulebook is the central resource for how to conduct a game session, including detailed and complete rules for making task rolls, movement, combat, various different forms of damage, and magic encompassing upwards of 500 spells, each with free-form and variable strength and effects based on the spell-slingers decisions.This is the companion to the Into Legend (TM) Core Rulebook, the Into Legend(TM) Worldbook: Realms of Ia, and the Into Legend(TM) Game Master's Reference.
