O jornalista Miguel Fernandes recebe uma caixa contendo evidências e testemunhos sobre o crime mais famoso do país: o Caso Castillo. As enigmáticas informações podem desvendar o incidente acontecido há 7 anos e sem uma solução conclusiva. O Solar Ibiza, palco deste mistério, recebia uma festa a mando do dono, o empresário Hirán Castillo. Na manhã seguinte, seu corpo é encontrado sem vida em sua suíte, causando confusão entre os hóspedes da mansão e um grande problema aos agentes da AIG. Enrique Garcia e Mia Figueroa são os encarregados em desvendar as motivações da morte o mais rápido possível, mesmo sabendo que as repercussões daquele acontecimento estão longe de serem normais... principalmente entre as pessoas mais próximas ao falecido.

"Lucy e Jake estão entediados. É um sábado chuvoso e eles não têm nada para fazer". As crianças jamais ficam sem ter nada para fazer, seja em inglês ou em português. Dez contos para fazer amizade com monstros e fugir aos berros de outros. Desde bruxas aos que vivem nos porões das casas antigas, eles estão à espreita; embaixo da sua cama, dentro do seu armário. Esperando que você não tenha nada para fazer e venha brincar com eles. "Lucy and Jake were bored. It was a rainy Saturday and they had nothing to do". Children never run out of things to do, whether in English or Portuguese. Ten tales to befriend monsters and run screaming from others. From witches to those who live in the basements of old houses, they are lurking; under your bed, inside your closet. Waiting for you to have nothing to do and come play with them.
The production and distribution of film and audiovisual works is one of the most dynamic growth sectors in the world. Thanks to digital technologies, production has been growing rapidly in Africa in recent years. For the first time, a complete mapping of the film and audiovisual industry in 54 States of the African continent is available, including quantitative and qualitative data and an analysis of their strengths and weaknesses at the continental and regional levels.The report proposes strategic recommendations for the development of the film and audiovisual sectors in Africa and invites policymakers, professional organizations, firms, filmmakers and artists to implement them in a concerted manner.
Power electronics is an area of extremely important and rapidly changing technology. Technological advancements in the area contribute to performance improvement and cost reduction, with applications proliferating in industrial, commercial, residential, military and aerospace environments. This book is meant to help engineers operating in all these areas to stay up-to-date on the most recent advances in the field, as well as to be a vehicle for clarifying increasingly complex theories and mathematics. This book will be a cost-effective and convenient way for engineers to get up-to-speed on the latest trends in power electronics. The reader will obtain the same level of informative instruction as they would if attending an IEEE course or a training session, but without ever leaving the office or living room! The author is in an excellent position to offer this instruction as he teaches many such courses. - Self-learning advanced tutorial, falling between a traditional textbook and a professional reference. - Almost every page features either a detailed figure or a bulleted chart, accompanied by clear descriptive explanatory text.
Nuclear Oncology a contemporary narrative of the role of nuclear medicine in oncology with an emphasis on SPECT/CT and PET/CT with additional comments when appropriate on the potential application of PET/MR and to a lesser degree, targeted radionuclide therapy. This book focuses on the use of radionuclides in the diagnosis and treatment of malignant diseases. It describes relevant approved and investigational clinical applications, instrumentation & technology, chemistry and practical clinical issues in nuclear oncology. The basic science and current research topics of nuclear oncology are addressed in separate chapters. Nuclear medicine has become an essential component to all phases of the...
This book gives a complete description of online hemodiafiltration, in five sections. It is unique in the systematic and complete way in which hemodiafiltration is described. Each chapter is completed by a point-to-point summary of essential information, in a separate text box. Part of the book is dedicated to the theoretical background of convective clearance. In this part, safety issues and quality control is reviewed (especially on the quality of water for dialysis and substitution fluid), as well as equipment (both dialyzers and machines) with which this treatment can be performed. As recently the results of several randomized controlled trials were available, the effect of hemodiafiltra...
