Laura is a nurse in a paediatric unit. On long, quiet shifts, she and her colleagues, clad in their different shades of blue, care for sick babies, handling their exquisitely frangible bodies, carefully calibrating the mysterious machines that keep them alive. Laura may be burned out. Her hands have been raw from washing as long as she can remember. When she sleeps, she dreams of water; when she wakes, she finds herself lying next to a man who doesn't love her any more. And there is a strange figure dancing in the corner of her vision, always just beyond her reach.

All I did was pick up an extra shift at work... And it was the best mistake I've ever made. Because I ran right into the chest of a sexy guy on my way out of the kitchen, and he turned into a wolf. As it turns out, werewolves are real, and they're just as hot as every indie romance book I've ever read has said. And this one has decided I'm his mate. Talk about a dream come true, right?

What makes a man—or a moment—turn lethal? Why do some societies spot predators early while others do not? After Dark examines thirty cases of serial killing from medieval Europe to the DNA era, bringing forensic clarity, courtroom drama, and measured moral reflection to stories too often told as spectacle. Each chapter reconstructs a life of crime and the investigation that ended it—Burke and Hare’s trade in corpses; Ted Bundy’s theatrical court appearances and late confessions; the forensic breakthroughs that finally unmasked long‑evading predators—while always asking the ...

Elwyn is remarkably unremarkable, and she prefers it that way. Perhaps it is a talent owed to the training of the notorious syndicate that reared her, or it may be a gift from her invisible friend—a clever and capricious creature who, unlike most invisible friends, has only grown more real with time. Either way, Elwyn's unremarkability is about to fail her.

Buckminster Fuller reminds us, “You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.” This book provides just that model, as well as concrete practices for living it. The model is derived from ancient wisdom traditions, modeled on the pulses, cycles, and seasons of our beloved Earth Mother. It deeply grounds the listener in a “this world” spirituality that blends indigenous cosmologies, earth-honoring ritual, and time-tested models for living with modern sensibilities.
