Thrillseekers.Com by L. R. Manley Pdf

Historically, evil has taken many forms. And in the twenty-first century, what better way to wreak havoc than through the internet? Alex Morris has finally found the murder-mystery event she's been looking for at "thrillseekers.com," and she can't wait for spring break so that the fun-filled weekend can begin. What she doesn't know is that the host for this event has his own evil agenda for the weekend, and the murders that will eventually occur aren't played out by actors! This host speaks to the reader in a condescending, yet oddly likable voice, revealing the fact that he becomes flesh in a person already living, then feeds on others' weaknesses, fears, and especially deaths. When Alex and seven others begin their weekend adventure, there is no turning back. They have no way of knowing that there is more to their presence there than the mere desire for fun, for one of them is not what they seem to be, courtesy of their mysterious host. As the weekend progresses, the players will ultimately realize that this game is deadly, yet there is no escape until it is played to its dismal, shocking conclusion.

Working with Offenders who View Online Child Sexual Exploitation Images by Lyne Piché,Anton Schweighofer Pdf

This comprehensive workbook addresses the use of illegal online sexual images. Focusing specifically on child sexual exploitation materials (CSEM), it offers a clear and professional manual for use with men who use CSEM. Working with clients who access illegal online images is challenging work. CSEM clients have unique characteristics and treatment needs. Designed around practitioner and client needs, each chapter provides a guide for clinicians and a subsequent set of materials for the client. The workbook covers a range of topics such as motivation for change, relationships, thinking patterns, emotions management, sexuality, computer use, Internet safety and future strategies to ensure both client and community safety. Addressing these issues as well as community accountability helps users of CSEM achieve a satisfying life while avoiding future criminal justice involvement. Through this clearly written and structured workbook, clients are given the resources to help manage problematic thoughts and/or illegal sexual behaviour. Offering evidence-based strategies rooted in the authors’ clinical experiences, the workbook enables the practitioner and client to work productively together to address the issues that have led to their involvement with illegal sexual images. This book will be helpful to a range of practitioners including forensic and clinical psychologists, as well as those working in correctional settings, such as probation and prison staff, psychiatrists, social workers, counsellors and providers of mental health treatment. It is also designed for anyone who has viewed, or is worried about viewing, sexual images of children.
