Serpents in the Cold
They found her on the beach, frozen, like a statue carved in ice... Post-war Boston is down on its luck, and desperate to reinvent itself. But promises of a brighter future sound ever more hollow as the worst winter in recent memory tightens its grip. No one is interested in a string of murdered women - everyone would much rather pretend they don't exist. But the latest victim was loved... Old friends Cal and Dante are both struggling to find a way to live in a city that seems to be leaving them behind. The hunt for a killer gives them new purpose, as well as making them powerful enemies. But they believe in justice and second chances, and they will see this thing through - whatever the cost.

The Criminal Process
The Criminal Process examines the current law on central issues arising before, during, and after the criminal trial. It provides you with a clear explanation of the main legal and policy issues connected with the investigation and prosecution of crime, the trial process itself, the post-conviction remedies and related matters. This new title will bring practitioners right up-to-date and includes the relevant provisions of the Criminal Justice Acts 2006-2007 and the new Guidelines for Prosecutors. It also examines the emerging law on issues like bail, delay, the duty to preserve evidence and the role of judicial review in the criminal process. It focuses on the key issues that have occupied the courts in recent years such as pre-trial remedies, delay, adverse publicity, and the duty to preserve evidence. While principally focusing on Irish and European law, The Criminal Process has a strong comparative dimension and it draws extensively on British, American and Commonwealth materials. Thomas O'Malley is a practising barrister and lectures in NUI, Galway.

Moral Panics, Social Fears, and the Media
The media have always played a central role in organising the way ideas flow through societies. But what happens when those ideas are disruptive to normal social relations? Bringing together work by scholars in history, media and cultural studies and sociology, this collection explores this role in more depth and with more attention paid to the complexities behind conventional analyses. Attention is paid to morality and regulation; empire and film; the role of women; authoritarianism; wartime and fears of treachery; and fears of cultural contamination. The book begins with essays that contextualise the theoretical and historiographical issues of the relationship between social fears, moral panics and the media. The second section provides case studies which illustrate the ways in which the media has participated in, or been seen as the source of, the creation of threats to society. Finally, the third section then shows how historical research calls into question simple assumptions about the relationship between the media and social disruption.
