Most of the main characters in the story are in the early twenties. While some of the plot deals with their romantic problems, the main thing is their attempt to solve the mystery of the murder of Nancy Bonwit, a former girlfriend of Mark Forbes.

Puddlejumpers
Ernie Banks, named for the legendary Chicago Cubs shortstop, is a troubled, thirteen-year-old juvenile delinquent. Abandoned on the doorstep of the Lakeside Home for Boys when he was three years old, he's now considered a "lifer," a permanent ward of the state. As a last reprieve before being sent to a juvenile detention facility, Ernie is allowed to spend three weeks on a working farm. When Ernie arrives at the home of Russ Frazier, he learns that the widower's baby was kidnapped years before, leaving behind a red quilt as the single piece of evidence.
Documents of American Indian Diplomacy
Reproduced in this two-volume set are hundreds of treaties and agreements made by Indian nations--with, among others, the Continental Congress; England, Spain, and other foreign countries; the ephemeral Republic of Texas and the Confederate States; railroad companies seeking rights-of-way across Indian land; and other Indian nations. Many were made with the United States but either remained unratified by Congress or were rejected by the Indians themselves after the Senate amended them unacceptably. Many others are "agreements" made after the official--but hardly de facto--end of U.S. treaty making in 1871. With the help of chapter introductions that concisely set each type of treaty in its historical and political context, these documents effectively trace the evolution of American Indian diplomacy in the United States.
Cognitive Therapy with Couples and Groups
It is with great pride and satisfaction that I welcome the publication of Cognitive Therapy with Couples and Groups. For several years, Arthur Freeman, Director of Clinical Services at the Center for Cognitive Therapy, has been a leader in attempting to extend a cognitive approach to new problems and new populations and to expand the approaches for treating the depressed outpatients for whom this approach was first developed. Dr. Freeman brought to the Center the full range and depth of a diverse clinical background which had and continues to broaden and enrich his work both as a therapist and as a teacher. I believe he has applied these dimensions of his experi ence fully in developing and ...
The Fire of Roses
1212. Twenty thousand children embark on a journey across France. Led by Stephen of Cloyes, a peasant boy with a professed letter from God, they aspire to liberate the Holy Land from the Saracens. Jean-Marc, a French peasant boy, joins the crusade even though he lacks faith in God. Together with his sister, Marie Christina, and a saintly nun, Sister Sophie, Jean-Marc embarks on one of the most infamous events in history. When tragedy upon tragedy strikes the children’s army, will faith be enough to get them to their goal? And once there, will they become liberators or prisoners? Will Jean-Marc ever discover the fire missing within? Based upon the true historical event of the Children’s Crusade, The Fire of Roses is a dynamic novel of faith, history, and awakening. It also presents invaluable historical insight into Christian/Islamic relations.
