Justice Delayed
Kate Meredith was about to witness a post mortem on a mutilated body found in strange circumstances. Not her favourite part of the job as a detective sergeant, but it had to be done. The dead man's past uncovered an historic abuse case involving vulnerable boys at a children's home. Something unspeakable had been happening and Kate was about to uncover the sordid and sinister details. A child had been molested and died but the lack of evidence, and a less than convincing coroner's report, urged them into reopening the case. Investigations took them to France and the search for a priest who was the chief suspect. When other victims came forward years later to corroborate the story, they were able to finally bring to justice the criminals involved. But the priest wasn't the only abuser and the secrets revealed by an old computer helped uncover the final sinister story to get the evil perpetrators prosecuted.

The Times They Were a-Changin'
An award-winning historian on the transformative year in the sixties that continues to reverberate in our lives and politics—for readers of Heather Cox Richardson. If 1968 marked a turning point in a pivotal decade, 1964—or rather, the long 1964, from JFK’s assassination in November 1963 to mid-1965—was the time when the sixties truly arrived. It was then that the United States began a radical shift toward a much more inclusive definition of “American,” with a greater degree of equality and a government actively involved in social and economic improvement.
