Award-winning author Smith wraps up her exciting mystery-romance trilogy about three Southern amateur sleuths whose faith, intelligence, and skills help them solve crimes . . . and get out of trouble.
Two journalists – passionate about travel and the ‘vast, dry cathedral called Namibia’ – set out to meander through this land and to relish the pure space and the joy of road travel. The journey shaped up as something special. Along the way, thirty years of memories returned. Chris Marais and Julienne du Toit encountered a landscape like no other, a seemingly barren place of unexpected and unrivalled beauty: from the enchantment of the Kalahari to the misty shipwreck world of the Skeleton Coast and up to the frontiers of the Caprivi Strip. Somewhere between Otjiwarongo and the silver pans of Etosha, they fell under the spell of cheetahs. With insight, sensitivity and great humour, Ch...

For almost forty years, Paul Raymond was one Britain's most scandalous celebrities. Best known as the owner of the world famous Raymond Revuebar, he was a successful theatre impresario, property magnate and porn baron. With his pencil moustache, gold jewellery and taste for showgirls, Raymond was both the brash personification of nouveau riche vulgarity and exemplar of the entrepreneurial spirit that enabled a poor boy from Liverpool to become Britain's richest man. 'Like 24 Hour Party People, we want to capture the life of an extraordinary man living in extraordinary times' Steve Coogan
Looking at the US, New Zealand, and Central America, this book considers how cultural politics has been deeply reworked in our contemporary media environment. The authors analyze how rampant technological convergence has allowed stories to spill across media platforms as well as geographical borders and how those stories reemerge as transmediated events. The authors explore the cultural politics that have developed within this new media environment by moving across the mediated landscapes of the first, third, and fourth (Indigenous people’s) worlds, which are deeply intertwined and interconnected under contemporary conditions of neoliberal globalization and emergent regimes of authoritaria...
Namibia Space takes the reader on a virtual tour of every corner of this haunting and beautiful country. It is packed with glorious full-colour photographs and first-hand experiences. We come to know the appeal of Namibia for travellers: the history, close-up Nature, infinite sand shaped by constant wind, exotic people (many of whom have turned their backs on civilisation and still practise their old ways), great herds of animals – and there is The Road, with its infinite possibilities. Through a remarkable series of photographs and writings we share Chris and Julie's experiences on the Namibian road. Namibia Space shows us their Namibia. Award-winning photo-journalist Chris Marais is well...
