JACKALINES
A winter morning, a slim woman with mother appears to join in a residential school, surrounded by beautiful forest and mountain-range, where morning comes late and evening comes earlier with smile of stars in the sky and blinking star-worms in the forest. The howling of jackals from evening increases palpitation of mistresses in the hostel. It is a unique story bundled with mystery, thrilling, horror, suspense, emotion, love and wisdom, written in simple language for all types of readers of all ages. The story explores how a common educated girl fights against the evils in a death trap by dint of her intelligence, presence of mind and courage and rescues a great scientist, from the clutch of a vicious family black sheep and his obliged criminal group. She also saves the entrapped innocent girls from the clutch of reprobate scientist. Those girls were kept in captivity to examine on them a poisonous serum, which can change a human being into a beast. The eventful fiction will increase inquisitiveness in readers to finish the story in a single breath till the story comes to a sweet end. The story for its charm, attraction and diversity in subject will lure the filmmakers.
The Gathering
The Gathering was the twenty-fourth in Kienzle's series of mysteries, featuring Father Robert Koesler as a Roman Catholic priest whose intuitiveness and caring nature have led him to an unusual calling: solving mysteries, mostly of the murderous kind. In this entry, revisit Koesler's adolescent and teen years, to a time when young Catholic men and women were encouraged, even expected, to become priests and nuns, whether or not their vocation was real. We meet his group of six young aspiring religious (four men and two women) who underwent the rigors of the seminary and the convent together. We learn of their individual struggles with their faith, their mentors, and their commitments to difficult choices. And we painfully discover how one member of this group is inflicted with undeserved guilt by an unspeakably cruel superior and how this dooms his life. Now in their seventies, the group gathers together, a reunion of sorts, that is cut short when one of their number is found dead. Suspicions arise, and once again Father Koesler's acumen is called on to solve the puzzle.
Statesmen, Scoundrels, and Eccentrics
From Native Americans, explorers, and early settlers to entertainers, business people, politicians, lawyers, artists, and many others, the well-known and not-so-well-known Arkansans featured in Statesmen, Scoundrels, and Eccentrics have fascinating stories. To name a few, there’s the “Hanging Judge,” Isaac C. Parker of Fort Smith, and Hattie Caraway, the first elected female U.S. senator. Isaac T. Gillam, a slave who became a prominent politician in post–Civil War Little Rock, is included, as is Norman McLeod, an eccentric Hot Springs photographer and owner of the city’s first large tourist trap. These entertaining short biographies from Dillard’s Remembering Arkansas column will be enjoyed by all kinds of readers, young and old alike. All the original columns reprinted here have also been enhanced with Dillard’s own recommended reading lists. Statesmen will serve as an introduction or reintroduction to the state’s wonderfully complex heritage, full of rhythm and discord, peopled by generations of hardworking men and women who have contributed much to the region and nation.

Colorblind Injustice
Challenging recent trends both in historical scholarship and in Supreme Court decisions on civil rights, J. Morgan Kousser criticizes the Court's "postmodern equal protection" and demonstrates that legislative and judicial history still matter for public policy. Offering an original interpretation of the failure of the First Reconstruction (after the Civil War) by comparing it with the relative success of the Second (after World War II), Kousser argues that institutions and institutional rules--not customs, ideas, attitudes, culture, or individual behavior--have been the primary forces shaping American race relations throughout the country's history. Using detailed case studies of redistrict...
