Arsonist's Lullaby
Life just got complicated for the agents of P.I.T as Ashlyn, Derek and Ever’s teenage daughter, makes her entrance. Derek soon discovers Ashlyn is hiding a hell of a lot more than she’s revealing. If that doesn’t complicate things enough, the team tries to set aside their grief so they can avenge Sarge’s murder and piece together clues an arsonist leaves for them, all with no idea how much danger they face with someone from Derek’s past returning to settle an old score. Ever Chace carries the weight of loss with her. Still hurting after the recent loss of her brother, she now has to deal with the death of a man who was like a father figure. Having made a heartbreaking decision, Ever comes face to face with her strong-willed, rebellious daughter, who has other ideas. With Odin poised to attack, Ever will have to decide if she can survive another personal sacrifice in order to save the world. The past, present, and future collide in the penultimate book in The Ever Chace Chronicles.

Queerqueen
From the twins Osugi and Peeco to longstanding icon Miwa Akihiro, Claire Maree traces the figure of the Japanese queerqueen, showing how a diversity of gender identifications, sexual orientations, and discursive styles are commodified and packaged together to form this character. Representations of gay men's speech have changed in tandem with gender norms, increasingly crossing over into popular media via the body of the "authentic" gay male up to and including the current "LGBT boom" in Japan. In this context, queerqueen demonstrates how commercial practices of recording, transcribing, and editing spoken interactions and use of on-screen text encode queerqueen speech as inherently excessive and in need of containment. Tackling questions of authenticity, self-censorship, and the restrictions of heteronormativity within this perception of queer excess, Maree shows how queerqueen styles reproduce stereotypes of gender, sexuality, and desire that are essential to the business of mainstream entertainment.
Fintech, Digital Currency and the Future of Islamic Finance
The banking and financial landscape has been inundated with technology over the last decade, with FinTech, InsurTech and RegTech being just some of the new applications within finance. In the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), FinTech is yet to find its feet despite several digital transformation drives initiated by the regional governments in the UAE and Bahrain. In comparison to conventional finance, the use of FinTech within Islamic financial institutions (IFIs) in GCC countries is still in its very early stages. However, the potential disruption that technology may cause for the Islamic finance sector within this region cannot be underestimated. Aiming to highlight, examine and address key ...

Residential Solid Waste Management in Semarang
This book deals with one of the main environmental challenges in Indonesia, namely the processing of solid waste. As a case, the study focuses on household waste management in the city of Semarang in Central Java. Semarang still uses the end of pipe system. Waste is brought to temporary disposal sites (TDSs) and from there to a final disposal site (FDS). The poor urban waste management evidently does not only result in a negative impact on human life and the environment but also constitutes a geographical problem. This is because the negative impact of disposal sites will affect those living in the immediate vicinity. The extent of the burden or benefit, of the sites, will vary according to the site location. Further to this, within a specific population group,households will be unequally exposed to some burdens depending on their proximity to the disposal site, gender (women will usually suffer more), age and social group. Frequently poor people are the most vulnerable party who will receive the burden of the disposal site rather than its benefit.
