Lesbian Mystery / Supernatural Mystery: An atheist is framed for murdering a pastor and must work with a secret religious organization to prove her innocence. Jillian Campbell doesn’t believe in God. When a pastor tells her that she’s a supernatural being called a Deiform, and she must join a secret religious organization called the Deiform Fellowship, she dismisses him as a kook. Two days later the pastor is dead, and Jillian is arrested for his murder. With the evidence stacked against her, Jillian expects to spend her life behind bars. But then the Fellowship breaks her out of prison and insists that the pastor told her the truth. If Jillian doesn’t join them, the Fellowship’s enemies will hunt her down and kill her. Jillian remains skeptical, but until she proves her innocence, she’s trapped with those who claim they want to help her. Is she one of these mythical Deiforms? Find out in The Atheist.

It shows that expression and communication are not only inherent parts of the punitive functions of international criminal justice, but are represented in a whole spectrum of practices.
Many ongoing conflicts throughout the world can be characterised as sovereignty conflicts in which two States claim exclusive sovereign rights for different reasons over the same piece of land. Drawing on the work of John Rawls this book considers how distributive justice theories can be in tune with the concept of sovereignty and explores the possibility of a solution for sovereignty conflicts based on Rawlsian methodology. Jorge E. Núñez explores a solution of egalitarian shared sovereignty, evaluating what sorts of institutions and arrangements could, and would, best realise shared sovereignty, and how it might be applied to territory, population, government and law.
This book explores the right to democracy in international law and contemporary democratic theory, asking whether international law encompasses a substantive or procedural understanding of the notion. The book considers whether there can be considered to be a basis for the right to democracy in international customary law. The book then goes on to explore the relevant provisions in international treaties including the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights before looking at the role of regional organizations and human rights regimes. Khalifa A. Alfadhel draws on the work of John Rawls in order to put forward a theoretical basis for the right to democracy.
