Stay Buried by Kate Webb Pdf

The darkest truths should never surface . . . A twisty and atmospheric Wiltshire-set crime novel from a brilliant new voice in the genre. Stay Buried will keep you guessing until the end. 'Your next must-read' LUCY FOLEY 'Absolutely brilliant plotting' ANN CLEEVES Detective Inspector Matt Lockyer has been side-lined to working cold cases, following a bad decision he made in a recent investigation in order to support a friend. Lockyer isn't too bothered though, as it gives him the chance to review some of the cases that keep him up at night and to look into his own brother's senseless killing which still remains unsolved. On a quiet afternoon Lockyer receives a phone call from prisoner Hedy Lambert - a woman he put inside for murder fourteen years ago. She informs him that the man she was originally accused of killing has turned up alive and well. She begs him to reopen her case. All those years ago, Lockyer had been the one to pin down Hedy's motive, but deep down he'd never wanted to believe she was guilty. The thought that he might have sent an innocent woman down for life doesn't sit well with him and he agrees to reopen the investigation. But has it become too personal and is he being manipulated? Perhaps there are some cases that should just stay buried. ****************************** Praise for Stay Buried 'Gloriously atmospheric' ELLY GRIFFITHS 'The twists were terrific' GYTHA LODGE 'A well-written deftly plotted whodunnit' GUARDIAN 'Remarkably assured' LITERARY REVIEW 'Accomplished, twisty' WOMAN AND HOME

We Survived and Thrived by Ken Tate,Janice Tate Pdf

When things go wrong as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all uphill, When the funds are low and the debts are highAnd you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.Times were tough, but we made it through.These were times when people depended on one another, when they learned to take nothing for granted, and to recognize those things that were more important than the luxuries money could buy.

My Dearest Enemy, My Dangerous Friend by Dorothy Rowe Pdf

Stories about siblings abound in literature, drama, comedy, biography, and history. We rarely talk about our own siblings without emotion, whether with love and gratitude, or exasperation, bitterness, anger and hate. Nevertheless, the subject of what it is to be and to have a sibling is one that has been ignored by psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists. In My Dearest Enemy, My Dangerous Friend, Dorothy Rowe presents a radically new way of thinking about siblings that unites the many apparently contradictory aspects of these complex relationships. This helps us to recognise the various experiences involved in sibling relationships as a result of the fundamental drive for survival and validation, enabling us to reach a deeper understanding of our siblings and ourselves. If you have a sibling, or you are bringing up siblings, or, as an only child, you want to know what you’re missing, this is the book for you.
