The ‘Perfect’ Murder: The Trial of Sunny Ang
Bankrupt and desperate for money, a brilliant psychopath planned the perfect crime. Sunny Ang selected his victim with care. Jenny was a young divorced bar girl with little schooling, flattered that an educated, charming man should notice her. He seduced her and promised marriage. He also insured Jenny’s life for a million dollars; the sum would go to his mother if she died an accidental death. Then he plotted murder: first, an unsuccessful car accident, and then the fatal scuba diving trip off the dangerous waters of Sisters’ Islands. Jenny went down and never came up. Only a cut flipper was found. Without a body, the Prosecution had no medical evidence and no witnesses to claim unnatural death. How did the law finally catch up with Sunny Ang?
Cold Blooded Murders
The Trial of Sunny Ang (1973). Bankrupt and desperately needing money, this is the true story of how a brilliant Singaporean psychopath tried to commit the perfect crime. This landmark trial was the first of its kind in Singapore—without a body, the prosecution had no medical evidence nor witnesses to claim unnatural death, so they caught Ang in a chain of circumstantial evidence he could not break, which ultimately led to his sentence. Pulau Senang—The Experiment That Failed (1980). In 1965, 18 men, all convicted criminals were sent to death for murder. They were to be a haunting testimony to the failure of a bold experiment to transform Pulau Senang into a gaol without bars and a sad realization that ‘creative work in healthy surroundings’ may not reform seasoned criminals. Reconstructing the events leading to the tragedy and trial, Pulau Senang attempts to throw some light to a question that has never been answered satisfactorily: Why did the experiment fail?

Nell
Nell's strong sense of right and wrong is not necessarily that of others in Cosby, the small Midwestern town where she has lived all her life. As her lifelong friend often says, "Nell's different." Just how different no one knows despite efforts of a nosy next-door neighbor, who was also a first grader in Nell's class some forty years earlier. Retired and in her 70s, Nell has traveled alone to every place she wanted to, and staying home has spiraled down to depression. Then she finds something to do every bit as exciting as a trip to the Alps or Tahiti or India or... There's a problem with Nell's new endeavor-no one can know about it. But that's okay. Nell is good at keeping secrets. Grudges, too. Cross Nell, and there will be trouble usually later than sooner. Settling an old score starts Nell down her new career path, which she follows for nearly twenty years. Even in death, she keeps her secret.. No one ever knows about Nell.

By Land, By Sea
William Hoffman alternates enduing themes of land and sea by taking inhabitants mostly of Virginia’s inland and Chesapeake Bay regions and making them thoroughly his own in this superb collection of stories. The stories deal with the clash between old and new values, with ties to the land and the lure of the sea, with the struggle to maintain relationships–between parents and children, husbands and wives, community and individual. In “Fathers and Daughters,” a man fears that his pretty teenage daughter is throwing away her life by taking up with a handsome young man whose values are primitive and rapacious. In “Landfall,” an ailing, elderly couple makes a last trip. In their belo...
