Tragedy at Law
When an anonymous letter arrives for Mr Justice Barber, the High Court judge, warning of imminent revenge, he dismisses it as the work of a harmless lunatic. But then a second letter appears, followed by a poisoned box of the judge's favourite chocolates, and he begins to fear for his life.
Tragedy at Law
In 'Tragedy at Law,' Alfred Alexander Gordon Clark, under his nom de plume Cyril Hare, offers an exquisite melding of legal expertise and storytelling prowess, set against the austere backdrop of post-war England. This meticulously structured narrative follows the tribulations of High Court Judge Mr. Justice Barber as he traverses the circuit and confronts a maelstrom of professional and personal crises, culminating in a chilling crime.

Trying to Save Piggy Sneed

Mapping Queerness in Times of Uncertainty
This book offers a new critical perspective on emerging and alternative ‘spaces’ for emancipation within lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) communities. It considers these across various geographic regions, and in times of social, political, and ecological uncertainty and change. The work delves into complex, often invisible spaces where queer communities navigate social, political, and ecological upheavals. Through a blend of critical theory, digital mapping, and rich case studies from regions like the Middle East, North Africa, Singapore, Poland, and Russia, the authors illuminate the intersecting challenges of neocolonial legacies, religious conservatism, and political repression. A must-read for scholars and advocates involved with human rights and LGBTQ organisations; this book provides a nuanced, interdisciplinary perspective on the evolving landscapes of queer emancipation and resistance. As such, it will appeal to scholars and students of queer studies, political sociology, social inequality, international relations, global studies, international justice, development studies, and the digital humanities.
