The Mysterious Castle
Tragedies abound humanity¿s history, filled with grisly bloodshed, suffering, and pain. These things are part of man¿s birthright. They go in tandem with our capacity to love, to build, and to become so much more. In The Mysterious Castle, the author, Wilmer Homan Rarick, takes us into a whirlwind of possibilities, from the prospect of an atomic war, and the horrid consequences thereafter, to the ultimate frontier of space, with all its wonders and inherent risks¿and the rise of man, despite such adversities, into becoming an entity to be reckoned with because of his ingenuity, cunning, bravery, and compassion.
Chance Beginning
The truth always finds a way. When you are the sole witness to a serious crime, what do you do? Do you turn a blind eye, or do you stand up for what is right and go to the authorities? But then again, what if the criminals are the authorities, and they are implicated in all areas of the judicial hierarchy? How do you keep yourself safe? Who can you trust? If you are Kiera Davidson, a legal assistant working for the DA, your gut instinct is to go to the police. Unfortunately, when the crime you’ve witnessed involves your boss, the risks are far greater. Stephen Douglas is up to his eyes in corruption and Kiera must find a way to ensure that he never finds out how much she knows. If he discovers what she has stumbled on to, Kiera realizes that she will be in grave danger. She must find a way to safeguard herself, and to make sure that Stephen doesn’t find a way of keeping her quiet; permanently.

Uncertain Accommodation
In 1982, after decades of determined mobilization by Aboriginal groups and their allies, the government of Canada formally recognized Aboriginal rights within its Constitution. The move reflected a consensus that states should and could use constitutionally enshrined group rights to protect and accommodate subnational groups within their borders. Decades later, however, almost no one is happy with the current state of Aboriginal rights in Canada, nor is there a consensus on what is wrong with these rights or how they can be fixed. Uncertain Accommodation tells the story of what went wrong. Dimitrios Panagos argues that the failure of Canada’s Aboriginal rights jurisprudence is ultimately r...
The Intersections of Family Violence and Sexual Offending
Often examined separately, this timely volume provides a detailed exploration of the nexus between family violence and sexual offending. Recognising family and sexual violence as highly interrelated issues, it uncovers the challenges and paradoxes of addressing them as separate versus coinciding problems. What is lost and gained when we treat family violence and sexual offending according to the same framework? Light is shed on the nature and dynamics of offending; various terminology (e.g., domestic abuse, intimate partner violence, grooming, coercive control); political and policy contexts; myths and misconceptions; policing and investigative responses; children as overlooked victim-surviv...
Roads, Tourism and Cultural History
Roads and road tourism loom large in the Australian imagination as distance and mobility have shaped the nation’s history and culture, but roads are more than simply transport routes; they embody multiple layers of history, mythology and symbolism. Drawing on Australian travel writing, diaries and manuscripts, tourism literature, fiction, poetry and feature films, this book explores how Australians have experienced and imagined roads and road touring beyond urban settings: from Aboriginal ‘songlines’ to modern-day road trips. It also tells the stories of iconic roads, including the Birdsville Track, Stuart Highway and Great Ocean Road, and suggests alternative approaches to heritage and tourism interpretation of these important routes. The ongoing impact of the colonial past on Indigenous peoples and contemporary Australian society and culture – including representations of the road and road travel – is explored throughout the book. The volume offers a new way of thinking about roads and road tourism as important strands in a nation’s cultural fabric.
Liege
He's not a robot. He's not a human. He's both. Liege, changed against his will into a super soldier by nanotechnology, is driven to protect humanity from the evil intent of his enemies. But the deadly focus he was wired for comes to a crashing halt when he sees her, a female who ignites in him a very human hunger, one he no longer thought himself capable of feeling. Summer Coltrane is oblivious to the powers swirling around her--light and dark, evil and good--until the veil between both worlds is ripped open and she's plunged into a terrible power play between a darkly tempting warrior and his ruthless enemies. To stay alive, she must join forces with Liege, a man who kills without remorse to save those he loves in a war no one in her world can know about.
The Pleasure Trap
The authors offer unique insights into the factors that make us susceptible to dietary and lifestyle excesses, and present ways to restore the biological processes designed by nature to keep us running at maximum efficiency and vitality. A wake-up call to even the most health conscious people, The Pleasure Trap boldy challenges conventional wisdom about sickness and unhappiness in today's contemporary culture, and offers groundbreaking solutions for achieving change.

Inspired by stunning original research, comprehensive clinical studies, and their successes with thousands of patients, the authors construct a new paradigm for the psychology of health, offering fresh hope for anyone stuck in a self-destructive rut. Integrating principals of evolutionary biology with trailblazing, proactive strategies for well
America through Transgender Eyes
America through Transgender Eyes provides an opportunity for readers to look at American society through the eyes of transgender people at a time when movements for and against transgender people permeate socio-political discussions throughout the nation. This book provides readers with important insights into the beauty and struggle of transgender people, identities, experiences, and relationships. As political, religious, and scientific traditions update their arguments in relation to growing recognition of transgender lives and histories, America through Transgender Eyes offers an opportunity to visualize the way such traditions appear to some of the people often left out of them. As political battles about the rights of transgender Americans grow throughout the nation, this book provides an important introduction to this population for voters, leaders, activists, and scholars seeking to make sense of the shifting gender dynamics of contemporary America.
The Dare
Jessica Martin is not a nice girl. As Prom Queen and Captain of the cheer squad, she'd ruled her school mercilessly, looking down her nose at everyone she deemed unworthy. The most unworthy of them all? The "freak," Manson Reed: her favorite victim. But a lot changes after high school. A freak like him never should have ended up at the same Halloween party as her. He never should have been able to beat her at a game of Drink or Dare. He never should have been able to humiliate her in front of everyone. Losing the game means taking the dare: a dare to serve Manson for the entire night as his slave. It's a dare that Jessica's pride - and curiosity - won't allow her to refuse. What ensues is a dark game of pleasure and pain, fear and desire. Is it only a game? Only revenge? Only a dare? Or is it something more? The Dare is an 18+ erotic romance novella and a prequel to the Losers Duet. Reader discretion is strongly advised. This book contains graphic sexual scenes, intense scenes of BDSM, and strong language. A full content note can be found in the front matter of the book.
