The Letter
A MYSTERIOUS LETTER IGNITES AN EXPLOSIVE CHAIN OF EVENTS FROM THE SOUTH CAROLINA LOWCOUNTRY TO THE OUTER BANKS. An execution-style murder next to the Port of Charleston triggers an intensive police investigation to find a killer. In an apparently unrelated incident a year later, three complete strangers each receive an anonymous letter offering a financial windfall with a detailed set of instructions…and an ominous threat for failing to comply. The strangers must travel alone from Charleston to Daufuskie Island off the coast of Hilton Head, South Carolina. Hoping to find answers, they instead become pawns in a clever and elaborate scheme planned by the ruthless boss of a Miami drug cartel. When Detective Steve Harris finally discovers the crucial link between the murder and the missing strangers, he launches a frantic race against time, the cartel, and a deadly hurricane, to find them before they disappear for good.
Liberating Economics
Liberating Economics draws on central concepts from women's studies scholarship to construct a feminist understanding of the economic roles of families, caring labor, motherhood, paid and unpaid labor, poverty, the feminization of labor, and the consequences of globalization. Barker and Feiner consistently recognize the importance of social location -- gender, race, class, sexual identity, and nationality -- in economic processes shaping the home, paid employment, market relations, and the global economy. Throughout they connect women's economic status in the industrialized nations to the economic circumstances surrounding women in the global South. Rooted in the two disciplines, this book draws on the rich tradition of interdisciplinary work in feminist social science scholarship to construct a parallel between the notions that the "personal is political" and "the personal is economic." Drucilla K. Barker is Professor of Economics and Women's Studies, Hollins University. Susan F. Feiner is Associate Professor of Economics and Women's Studies, University of Southern Maine.
