Egg-Shell Thin: A Fairplay Novel Featuring Private Investigator Adrienne Hargrove
Adrienne Hargrove has always been aware that humans are fragile creatures walking an egg-shell thin line between innocence and deviance. Her own life is a chain of guilt from poor choices she’s made. But as a private investigator in the Deep South, she thought she had seen it all. That was before she was hired by Catriona Kirby, wife of Galen Kirby, a doctor in a small Louisiana town. Adrienne knew she was looking into the possibility the doctor was involved in a drug scam with the sheriff. She even knew there was a possibility the doctor was involved in the murder of an ex-girlfriend. What she never imagined was that Dr. Galen Kirby was a serial killer and deeply involved in a baby black market scheme. And in their wildest nightmares neither Adrienne nor Catriona could have imagined that he was producing his own babies to sell.

How We Hope
What exactly is hope and how does it influence our decisions? In How We Hope, Adrienne Martin presents a novel account of hope, the motivational resources it presupposes, and its function in our practical lives. She contends that hoping for an outcome means treating certain feelings, plans, and imaginings as justified, and that hope thereby involves sophisticated reflective and conceptual capacities. Martin develops this original perspective on hope--what she calls the "incorporation analysis"--in contrast to the two dominant philosophical conceptions of hope: the orthodox definition, where hoping for an outcome is simply desiring it while thinking it possible, and agent-centered views, wher...
Covert Violence
Covert violence occurs in all social institutions—including families and close relationships, education, workplaces, politics, mass media, and healthcare—each with its own unique power dynamics that shape the incidence and patterns of these vicious acts. This book focuses on the types of surreptitious murder and mayhem that perpetrators intend to go unnoticed by would-be victims—until it’s too late. When such attacks are carried out with efficiency and competence, they may be disguised in official records as the result of illness, accident, or intentional self-harm, only on occasion to be later reclassified as the brutal crimes they are. This compelling and much-needed book is for all those who seek to understand—and strive to prevent—violence in society.
