When he's arrested for murder, secrets come to light and nothing is what it seems. If Laura can just solve this crime, keep the cops off her tail, break up a counterfeiting ring, and get the show on the runway by Friday, she might stop being Seventh Avenue's perpetual loser.

Kurzbeschreibung

What does history really consists of? Centuries of people quietly going about their daily business ? sleeping, eating, having sex, endeavouring to get comfortable.And where did all these normal activities take place? At home.This was the thought that inspired Bill Bryson to start a journey around the rooms of his own house, an 1851 Norfolk rectory, to consider how the ordinary things in life came to be. And what he discovered are surprising connections to anything from the Crystal Palace to the Eiffel Tower, from scurvy to body-snatching,from bedbugs to the Industrial Revolution, and just about everything else that has ever happened, resulting in one of the most entertaining and illuminating books ever written about the history of the way we live.

Kurzbeschreibung

Have you ever heard someone take their last breath?
You probably have but just didn't know it.

Detective Chief Inspector Richard Cowell is back on duty only weeks after a disciplinary hearing following the deaths of two of his fellow officers. The not-guilty verdict has left psychological scars. Most of his staff are showing signs of hostility towards him and now even his girlfriend?s dumped him.

The bodies of two young women are discovered as a murderer goes on a killing spree. The first is strangled, the next brutally stabbed. When Cowell discovers a matching signature he realises that he and his new partner are searching for the area's first serial killer.

Somehow the local radio station and its presenters are involved in the mystery, but what is that link? What is the motivation? For DCI Cowell this is the lowest point of his life, but can he pull himself together and unravel the strands to track down the killer before it's too late?
