The History Room
After her soldier husband is seriously injured and her marriage begins to fall apart, Meredith Cordingley returns to teach at Letchford, the grand Cotswold private school run by her father, who outwardly appears to be a typically English headmaster. The setting provides Meredith with a tranquil refuge from her own heartache until one September afternoon, when a shocking discovery is made in the history room. The police are called, but all is not what it seems. Meredith is determined to discover the culprit and becomes convinced that a manipulative member of staff is controlling the sinister goings-on at her beloved Letchford, and exerting a calculating influence on a vulnerable and troubled young student, but on her journey to untangle the truth Meredith risks her father’s reputation, as well as her own. As the mystery unravels Meredith comes to discover that there is more than one person at Letchford School hiding a past filled with complicated secrets. What follows is a gripping mystery, a tale of war, grief, love and second chances.

Agile Actors on Complex Terrains
This book assesses the value and relevance of the literature on complex systems to policy-making, contributing to both social theory and policy analysis. For this purpose it develops two key ideas: agile action and transformative realism. The book takes some major themes from complexity science, presents them in a clear and accessible manner and applies them to core problems in sociological theory and policy analysis.

One Flesh
After giving up a lucrative New York City architectural career to avoid being stalked by his boss's daughter, Graham found himself in a utopian country lifestyle in "upstate." His high standards kept him from serious relationships with the opposite sex during his youth, but he found his perfect woman in a most unusual setting when he least expected it. But his past was not to be denied, and it was destined to catch up with him and plunge him into an international intrigue that cost him the love of his life and nearly his life itself. The gripping story of how drugs, human trafficking, betrayal, obsession, greed, and tremendous tragedy are overcome by enduring love based on biblical principles is told in this heart-wrenching story. One Flesh is the love story that all women long for in their personal lives, and its ending will leave them believing it is possible.

Beyond Caring
Paul Graham's Beyond Caring published in 1986 is now considered one of the key works from Britain's wave of "New Color" photography that was gaining momentum in the 1980s. While commissioned to present his view of "Britain in 1984," Graham turned his attention towards the waiting rooms, queues and poor conditions of overburdened Social Security and Unemployment offices across the United Kingdom. Photographing surreptitiously, his camera is both witness and protagonist within a bureaucratic system that speaks to the humiliation and indignity aimed towards the most vulnerable end of society. Books on Books #9 presents every page spread of Graham's controversial book along with a contemporary essay by writer and curator David Chandler.--Publisher.
