When you can't hear...death comes silently. Scotland Yard detective Valerie Crowther is assigned to investigate the murder of a student at a university for the Deaf in London, England. The murder investigation coincides with a deadly flu virus outbreak, resulting in the university being quarantined from the outside world. When more Deaf students are murdered, it becomes clear there is a serial killer operating within the sealed-off university. A chilling cat-and-mouse game evolves as the unknown killer targets Valerie and the virus claims more lives. A stunning, claustrophobic, "whodunit" murder mystery, Silent Fear (A novel inspired by true crimes) is the eighth novel by father-and-son writing team Lance & James Morcan. Included is a commentary by Deaf filmmaker Brent Macpherson on the unique aspects of Deaf culture the story covers. Together, the Morcans and Macpherson are currently developing a feature film adaptation of Silent Fear.

A groundbreaking exposé and diagnosis of the silent epidemic of fear afflicting new mothers, and a candid, feminist deep dive into the culture, science, history, and psychology of contemporary motherhood Anxiety among mothers is a growing but largely unrecognized crisis. In the transition to motherhood and the years that follow, countless women suffer from overwhelming feelings of fear, grief, and obsession that do not fit neatly within the outmoded category of “postpartum depression.” These women soon discover that there is precious little support or time for their care, even as expectations about what mothers should do and be continue to rise. Many struggle to distinguish normal worry from crippling madness in a culture in which their anxiety is often ignored, normalized, or, most dangerously, seen as taboo. Drawing on extensive research, numerous interviews, and the raw particulars of her own experience with anxiety, writer and mother Sarah Menkedick gives us a comprehensive examination of the biology, psychology, history, and societal conditions surrounding the crushing and life-limiting fear that has become the norm for so many. Woven into the stories of women’s lives is an examination of the factors—such as the changing structure of the maternal brain, the ethically problematic ways risk is construed during pregnancy, and the marginalization of motherhood as an identity—that explore how motherhood came to be an experience so dominated by anxiety, and how mothers might reclaim it. Writing with profound empathy, visceral honesty, and deep understanding, Menkedick makes clear how critically we need to expand our awareness of, compassion for, and care for women’s lives.

It is in the Eastern part of Tennessee this story begins, in the small town of Johnson City, located one hundred miles northeast of Knoxville—a lovely city nestled in among lush green mountains. The year is 1954, population 23,000. Johnson City is a town that has flourished, from its beginning. It is rich in history, but this is not a story of history. This story centers on the strife and hardships of one dirt-poor Southern family and one little girl’s will to survive, survive not only as a child but long after. Her name is Callie James, and Callie tells the story.

I was born in London, England in the early 1960’s and moved to America in July 1979. I visited Orlando, Florida in 1980 and made it my home. I started to lose my sight at the age of 32 during my seventh month of pregnancy, due to a combination of preeclampsia and diabetic retinopathy. In December 2008, I met Bruce Wayne Riddle in out-of-sight.net, a chat community for the blind. Bruce inspired and encouraged me to write “The Silent Fear”, a novel, which brings forth the corruption and manipulation of the judicial world. It portrays a man’s lust for power, the influence of alcohol and how he finds himself with an inherited abusive nature, even to those he loves. While one brother drives to the top, The Silent Fear has a heartfelt message of one Uncle’s unconditional love and compassion for his nephew and the extreme lengths he is willing to go to in order to protect the child. You will experience the powerful scales of justice. Also, you will experience the love and concern of the characters, along with the sudden twists an explosive and unpredictable ending. Bruce died October 2nd 2009, two days after reading the final chapter. I will cherish his memory forever. Go to jbheart.net to find out the story behind my pen name.

Sexual Violence and the Violence of Silence takes a candid look at the clergy sexual abuse scandal in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Philadelphia from a historical and cultural perspective. The author reveals the five veils of silence—the actions or inactions of the church hierarchy, congregation, law enforcement, media, and general public—that shrouded these cases of clergy sexual violence and exposed the internal maneuverings by administrative officials to silence all those involved or who knew about the abuses. This violence of silence had a profound effect on the victims by adding to their pain and suffering and interfering with their ability to heal and obtain justice. The author begins with the history of the founding of the Roman Catholic Church in America and the Archdiocese of Philadelphia and leads the reader through the confession and testimony of Father William Hogan, a nineteenth-century priest who acknowledged his role in grooming parishioners in the confessional, attested to the sexually abusive behavior of many of his colleagues, and argued for the pervasiveness of clergy sexual violence in the church. The reader will also be exposed to graphic grand jury testimony of the victims of a small representative sample of accused sexually violent priests from the Archdiocese of Philadelphia—Father Gerard W. Chambers, Father Joseph Gausch, and Father Nicholas V. Cudemo—who targeted their victims based on race, class, and gender. The author includes the historical context in which each priest lived and served by presenting these priests to the reader in chronological order based on their date of ordination. To assist the readers in their understanding of the scope of the cover-up by the leadership of the church, the author examines the administration of the bishops or cardinals supervising the archdiocese during the tenure of each of these predator priests.

The period from Stalin's death in 1953 to the end of the 1960s marked a crucial epoch in Soviet history. Though not overtly revolutionary, this era produced significant shifts in policies, ideas, language, artistic practices, daily behaviours, and material life. It was also during this time that social, cultural, and intellectual processes in the USSR began to parallel those in the West (and particularly in Europe) as never before. This volume examines in fascinating detail the various facets of Soviet life during the 1950s and 1960s, a period termed the 'Thaw.' Featuring innovative research by historical, literary, and film scholars from across the world, this book helps to answer fundamental questions about the nature and ultimate fortune of the Soviet order both in its internal dynamics and in its long-term and global perspectives.

You promised the girls that tonight you would go with them to see that new movie. You are dressed and about to leave the house when your significant others comes through the door. He takes one glaring look and begins to assault you. With your mouth busted and bleeding he growls, now you can go out! Lets face it most of us have encountered a domestic violent/abusive situation at least once or twice in our lives. The problem with Domestic violence or abuse of any kind is that the underlying force is spiritual in nature, and it must be fought with spiritual weapons. But that seems incredible. How can you fight an attitude thats so pervasive? What seems incredible or impossible for you, is very credible and possible for God to do in you, and through you. Did you ever think that your life of abuse, the things that you encountered would some day help others to overcome their abuse? Did you think that God would use your life no matter how tattered, ripped, and torn to help mend others? He can if you would allow Him. The story of your life: the abuse, mistreatment, injury, and insults you have encountered are likewise the story of Gods love for you. God the Son withstood the most gruesome abuse, and ultimate death by man, His own creation, to redeem you back to the Father; thats real love. Therefore, this recovery plan is to help you to be renewed in your mind, body and spirit so you can help yourself and others to be delivered from domestic violence. Renewing Your Mind through Biblical Principles is Gods recovery plan for you. And it will work, if you work the plan He has given_ His Word.

A sweeping study of political murder in Latin America. This sweeping history depicts Latin Americas pan-regional culture of political murder. Unlike typical studies of the region, which often focus on the issues or trends of individual countries, this work focuses thematically on the nature of political murder itself, comparing and contrasting its uses and practices throughout the region. W. John Green examines the entire system of political murder: the methods and justifications the perpetrators employ, the victims, and the consequences for Latin American societies. Green demonstrates that elite and state actors have been responsible for most political murders, assassinating the leaders of popular movements and other messengers of change. Latin American elites have also often targeted the potential audience for these messages through the regions various dirty wars. In spite of regional differences, elites across the region have displayed considerable uniformity in justifying their use of murder, imagining themselves in a class war with democratic forces. While the United States has often been complicit in such violence, Green notes that this has not been universally true, with US support waxing and waning. A detailed appendix, exploring political murder country by country, provides an additional resource for readers.
