Road Kill
"It has been the best part of 12 years since I investigated a fatal accident and dealt with grieving relatives. It has taken me 12 years to have the strength to write about it, to put pen to paper and record what has caused me so much grief and anguish." So writes Craig Hodge, one of Victoria Police's leading investigators of fatal road accidents. A police officer for 20 years, eight of which he spent with the Accident Investigation Section (now the Major Collision Investigation Unit), Hodge attended the horrific scenes of more than 350 accidents that resulted in deaths and serious injuries. In ROAD KILL, Hodge recounts harrowing investigations and details the processes involved in finding out the causes of such tragedies, which often led to prosecutions. His story is a cautionary tale in which responsible driving messages loom large. ROAD KILL also provides a poignant account of the emotional and psychological impact such carnage has on all involved, not least of all on investigators like Hodge, who struggled at times to find a balance between being sensitive to victims and their families, while also trying to remain emotionally detached for his own sanity and wellbeing.
American Roadkill
Slaughtered along our highways, roadkill may be observed regularly, but aren't likely to be given much thought. Research scientists, animal rights activists, roadkill artists, writers, ethicists and lyricists, however, are increasingly sounding the alarm. They report that we are killing the very animals we love, and are driving many of them to the brink of extinction. Detailing the death and destruction of mammals, reptiles, amphibians, and insect pollinators, this study examines the ways in which we are thus jeopardizing our own futures. Beginning in the Model T era, biologists counted the common carnage of the time--cottontails, woodchucks, and squirrels, mostly. That record-keeping continues today. Beyond the bleak statistics, zoologists are rerouting migratory paths of animals and are advocating for cat and dog companions. This book illuminates both our successes and failures in keeping animals out of harm's way and what those efforts reflect about ourselves and our capacity to care enough to alter the road ahead.
Roadkill
New from the national bestselling author of Deathwish It's time to lock, load, and hit the road...

She wants them to find a stolen coffin that contains a blight that makes the Black Death seem like a fond memory. But the thief has already left town, so the Leandros brothers are going on the road. And if they're very, very lucky, there might even be a return trip...

Roadkill
Von blutenden Cocktails und rasenden Rubeln Stell dir vor, du bist in Las Vegas. Neonlichter, Sterne am Himmel, ein atemberaubendes Wüstenpanorama. Das Problem ist nur, dass du von einem Balkon hoch oben über der Stadt hängst, gehalten von einem Muskelprotz, der deine beträchtlichen Schulden eintreiben will. Zum Glück hast du in deiner Villa noch eine Geldreserve. Doch als du später in den Safe schaust, findest du nichts außer einer CD mit seltsamen Blues-Songs. Bald merkst du, dass die Songs eine Botschaft sind. Sie weisen dir den Weg quer durch die USA zu deinem Geld. Aber du musst schnell sein. Verflucht schnell. Denn die Killer sind dir schon auf den Fersen ...
