Mason Krane was five years old when he saw his parents brutally murdered and his brother dragged screaming out of their home. Haunted by the horrors of that night, Mason has dedicated his life to finding missing children. Though dedicated to his job, Masons obsession with finding the truth of that night is always on his mind. He has never found any evidence to grant him closure, until now. Mason is hired to investigate the brutal murder of a babysitter and the missing child she was watching. The facts of the case are eerily similar to Masons own experience, but this time the babysitter has left a clue to her killers identitya rough sketch that will drive his investigation into a confrontation with evil. Driven by this recent discovery, Masons investigation leads him to unlock the ancient past, create new friendships, and give him visibility into a world that exists only in the deepest nightmares. As his desire to find a missing child and the truth of his past push him forward, Mason stumbles onto a plot that could wipe out millions, and only he and God stand between the evil that could ravage the human race.
The Nordic future of workHow will work and working life in the Nordic countries change in the future? This is the question to be addressed in the project The Future of Work: Opportunities and Challenges for the Nordic Models. This initial report describes the main drivers and trends expected to shape the future of work.

Presented in clear and accessible language with wonderfully supportive graphics, Roberts offers the reader a voyage through the development of human knowledge. He then examines the outstanding mysteries of modern physics-the phenomena that lie outside the boarders of our current understanding (dark energy, dark matter, the Big Bang, wave-particle duality, quantum tunneling, state vector reduction, etc.) and suggests that the next step in our intellectual journey is to treat the vacuum of space as a superfluid-modeling it as being composed of interactive quanta, which, in a self similar way, are composed of subquanta, and so on. With this proposition Roberts engenders the vacuum with fractal ...
This collection of articles critically examines legal subjectivity and ideas of citizenship inherent in legal thought. The chapters offer a novel perspective on current debates in this area by exploring the connections between public and political issues as they intersect with more intimate sets of relations and private identities. Covering issues as diverse as autonomy, vulnerability and care, family and work, immigration control, the institution of speech, and the electorate and the right to vote, they provide a broader canvas upon which to comprehend more complex notions of citizenship, personhood, identity and belonging in law, in their various ramifications.
