Ut kom vargarna
Polismannen William har gjort det förbjudna och tjallat på en kollega. Något som nästan kostar honom livet. En högt uppsatt chef inom Rikskriminalpolisen erbjuder dock William en chans till ett nytt liv. Allt han behöver göra är att tillsammans med ytterligare en före detta polis åka till Ryssland och hämta hem en svensk bankrånare på flykt, så att denne kan gripas på svensk mark. Allt detta måste självklart ske i största hemlighet eftersom svensk polis inte har några befogenheter i Ryssland. Den intensiva människojakten kantas av oförutsedda händelser och chockerande öden och leder till en blodig och oväntad upplösning.
The Gnome's Eye
In the spring of 1954, when her father announces that the family has a chance to immigrate to Canada, Theresa's life changes forever. She and her family are wartime refugees from Yugoslavia, so it shouldn't be hard to leave Austria. But the weathered barracks of Lager Lichtenstein are the only home she knows, and they are filled with family and friends she doesn't want to leave behind. As she says her good-byes, Theresa's friend Martin gives her two gifts: a package of postcards and a stone he calls the Gnome's Eye, which he says will "protect her from all things evil, living or dead." Theresa is convinced the stone has no power, but she still keeps it close as they travel on the crowded immigrant ship and when they settle into a rooming house on Kensington Avenue in Toronto. At first Theresa is afraid of everything: the other tenants in the rooming house, the rat that lives in the kitchen, learning a new language. But as time goes by, Theresa's need for the Gnome's Eye fades, until she is finally able to give it to someone who needs it more than she does.

Engineering Geology and Geomorphology of Glaciated and Periglaciated Terrains
The Engineering Group of the Geological Society Working Party brought together experts in glacial and periglacial geomorphology, Quaternary history, engineering geology and geotechnical engineering to establish best practice when working in former glaciated and periglaciated environments. The Working Party addressed outdated terminology and reviewed the latest academic research to provide an up-to-date understanding of glaciated and periglaciated terrains. This transformative, state-of-the-art volume is the outcome of five years of deliberation and synthesis by the Working Party. This is an essential reference text for practitioners, students and academics working in these challenging ground conditions. The narrative style, and a comprehensive glossary and photo-catalogue of active and relict sediments, structures and landforms make this material relevant and accessible to a wide readership.
