Описание:
Award-winning author Kelly Oliver takes thing up a notch, mixing medical thriller with murder.
One minute Jessica is throwing down Fiery Mule Slammers with a hot intern from the medical school. The next she's waking up naked behind a dumpster in freezing Chicago, her clothes piled neatly beside her.
She soon finds out she's one of Chicago's mystery 'dumpster girls' - top of their class, attractive college girls who are drugged and dropped unconscious behind dumpsters. The police are baffled, and when one of the victims turns up dead, Jessica decides it's up to her to solve the mystery before more girls get hurt.
Hunting for the predator leads Jessica to discover secrets about her identity that force her to re-think her past. It also puts her squarely in the middle of dangerous medical mystery. Luckily her friends Lolita and Jack are on hand to help solve this gritty biological crime.
Genes to die for....and someone does.

This volume brings together scholars of philosophy, law, and literature, including prominent Derrideans alongside activist scholars, to elucidate and expand upon an important project of Derrida’s final years, the seminars he conducted on the death penalty from 1999 to 2001. Deconstructing the Death Penalty provides remarkable insight into Derrida’s ethical and political work. Beyond exploring the implications of Derrida’s thought on capital punishment and mass incarceration, the contributors also elucidate the philosophical groundwork for his subsequent deconstructions of sovereign power and the human/animal divide. Because Derrida was concerned with the logic of the death penalty, rather than the death penalty itself, his seminars have proven useful to scholars and activists opposing all forms of state sanctioned killing. The volume establishes Derrida's importance for continuing debates on capital punishment, mass incarceration, and police brutality. At the same time, by deconstructing the theologico-political logic of the death penalty, it works to construct a new, versatile abolitionism, one capable of confronting all forms the death penalty might take.

Описание:
Can a 21-year-old grad student crush Goliath? All eyes on Jessica James, resident badass...
Jessica James, scrappy cowgirl-turned-philosopher, returns home for summer break, only to take on one of the biggest oil companies in the country--and its connections to corruption, sex trafficking, and murder. A murder way too close to home...
She's not home an hour when her cousin Mike hints that a series of freak accidents at the lumber mill where he works might not be what they seem. So when Mike is killed in the saw room the day after an argument with the mill's new owners, the Knight brothers, Jessica knows it's no accident.
Working at Glacier Park to earn just enough money for books and whiskey, Jessica meets the secretive Kimi RedFox, who's on a mission to stop Knight Industries from fracking on Blackfeet land. Even more distressing, Kimi accuses the Knight brothers of operating a prostitution ring on the reservation. It doesn't take long until Jessica is pulled into Kimi's David versus Goliath battle with the Knight brothers. Ready to fight to save Kimi's young sisters from human trafficking, and find out who killed Mike, Jessica isn't as ready for the surprising discovery about the accident that killed her father eleven years ago.
Fans who like their female protagonists fierce and fearless will get a real kick out of this one from award winning author, Kelly Oliver.
