Описание:
"Superb characters, sparkling dialogue, and a gripping, terrifying plot, plus flashes of humor to boot; JoAnn Chaney's What You Don't Know has it all." --Chris Pavone, New York Times bestselling author A series of murders brings Denver to its knees in this wonderfully voice-driven, dark, wry, and wholly original page-turning debut.
He didn't take their lives -- but he ruined them.
The final victims of an infamous serial killer may be the ones he didn't kill.
Hoskins cracked the case of one of the most infamous serial killers -- and then it cracked him. He's in cold cases, as is his career.
Sammie was the lead reporter who broke the story, but now she's selling makeup at the mall. She wants back on page 1.
Gloria claims she was the unsuspecting wife. She didn't know a thing.
And as new murders shake Denver, this is a final chance to get their lives back.
Literary scholar Michael A. Chaney examines graphic novels to illustrate that in form and function they inform readers on how they ought to be read. His arguments result in an innovative analysis of the various knowledges that comics produce and the methods artists and writers employ to convey them. Theoretically eclectic, this study attends to the lessons taught by both the form and content of today's most celebrated graphic novels.
Chaney analyzes the embedded lessons in comics and graphic novels through the form's central tropes: the iconic child storyteller and the inherent childishness of comics in American culture; the use of mirrors and masks as ciphers of the unconscious; embedded puzzles and games in otherwise story-driven comic narratives; and the form's self-reflexive propensity for showing its work. Comics reveal the labor that goes into producing them, embedding lessons on how to read the "work" as a whole.
Throughout, Chaney draws from a range of theoretical insights from psychoanalysis and semiotics to theories of reception and production from film studies, art history, and media studies. Some of the major texts examined include Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis; Chris Ware's Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth; Joe Sacco's Palestine; David B.'s Epileptic; Kyle Baker's Nat Turner; and many more. As Chaney's examples show, graphic novels teach us even as they create meaning in their infinite relay between words and pictures.

Описание:
After years of terrorist attacks, murders and kidnappings, citizens of the State vote to enact the Protector Program. A predictive policing system, it signals the dawn of the New Era. Passive iD chips are implanted in every citizen's wrist, providing convenience and protection.The chips enable users to unlock homes, start cars, transact in stores, and monitor their health. They also collect data.
Specially designed risk prediction algorithms parse and analyze user data to predict individual levels of threat, aiding the predictive policing program and eradicating crime in most cities.
Marus Winde has worked for the State's Intelligence Annex since the inception of the New Era. As Senior Algorithm Architect, no one is more dedicated to the predictive policing program. No one has greater trust in its proficiencies.
That is, until his young son vanishes inexplicably in broad daylight in the safest city in the world.
As Marus works to reconcile the program's deficiencies and unravel the mystery of his son's disappearance, he discovers that the system he helped build is not only imperfect, but corruptible, and that even the greatest of technological advancements can't replicate human intuition.
In Absence of Fear is the vividly imagined, breathtaking debut novel by Celeste Chaney. Examining themes of technology, privacy, humanity, family, love and patriotism, critics are calling this remarkably gripping story the "1984 for the post-Snowden era."
"In this remarkable read, Tim shows us how to kick the doors wide open to live more freely, right here, right now." - Allison Maslan, No. 1 best-selling author of Blast Off The Surefire Success Plan to Launch Your Dreams into Reality

"If ever you were looking for something to demonstrate the clear connection between state of mind, quality of thought, and results, you have found it." - David Firth, author of Change Your World One Word at a Time

Imagine trying to run a race with both hands tied behind your back and 20-lb weights strapped to your ankles.
Seems ludicrous to ponder, and yet that's exactly how most people approach the game of life.
What keeps them going is the notion that at the end of the race, there will be a huge pot of gold.
Running that kind of race is so stressful and exhausting, most people never even see the finish line, and for the few that do, the pot of gold often is nothing like what they imagined.
There's a fundamentally different way to run the race. One that eliminates stress and makes the entire process joyful and fun. One where you start out with the pot of gold rather than hoping one day to discover it.
Running the stress-free race requires an entirely new understanding --
The key to your success if NOT what you think.
You don't need to emulate the habits of successful people. You don't need more confidence, self-discipline, and motivation. You don't need to believe in yourself.
In fact, your circumstances don't need to change at all.
The key to your ultimate success is not having much on your mind.
The less you have on your mind, the more insights you'll have, and the better results you'll produce.
Once you see what shifts your mind from quiet to noisy, you'll have more "A-ha" moments and breakthroughs, you'll get more done in less time, and you'll do it so effortlessly, it'll feel like you have an unfair advantage.
The only thing between you and a life of happiness, peace of mind, and complete freedom is a simple, yet profound understanding -- your state of mind is creating your experience, not the other way around.
With a deep understanding of how your state of mind influences your thinking and ultimately, how that thinking creates your experience, your ability to flourish in any circumstance goes up dramatically. Without such an understanding, your success ceiling will be much lower, and whatever success you do achieve will often not lead to the happiness, peace of mind, or fulfillment you covet.
In How Much Freedom Can You Stand?, one of the foremost thought leaders on state of mind and performance excellence, Tim Chaney, shows you that your ultimate freedom comes from knowing how to summon your best ideas and your best performances any time you want, regardless of whatever is happening in the world or in your head.
Get direct access to insider insights that Tim's executive coaching and high-achieving entrepreneurial clients get every week, and prepare to soar to new heights of achievement.

"Unputdownable....This novel is anything but predictable. The female characters are forces of nature, and the plot twists are deliciously demented, a la Gone Girl and Big Little Lies." --People You can't be married to someone without sometimes wanting to kill them...
As Long As We Both Shall Live is JoAnn Chaney's wicked, masterful examination of a marriage gone very wrong, a marriage with lots of secrets... "My wife I think she's dead " Matt frantically tells park rangers that he and his wife, Marie, were hiking when she fell off a cliff into the raging river below. They start a search, but they aren't hopeful: no one could have survived that fall. It was a tragic accident. But Matt's first wife also died in suspicious circumstances. And when the police pull a body out of the river, they have a lot more questions for Matt. Detectives Loren and Spengler want to know if Matt is a grieving, twice-unlucky husband or a cold-blooded murderer. They dig into the couple's lives to see what they can unearth. And they find that love's got teeth, it's got claws, and once it hitches you to a person, it's tough to rip yourself free. So what happens when you're done making it work?
A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. (John 13:34-35)
I Am Opens Our Eyes is a blueprint for living a life with Christ as the focus rather than looking to the world's wisdom for "quick fixes."
After continuous failures brought on by looking in all the wrong places, Chaney finally came to a crossroads in his life: continue on the path of least fulfillment, or choose God for joy and peace in his heart. This book recounts countless examples of Chaney's struggles and failures that resulted in him serving seventy months of prison time. Through this very trying time, he turned his eyes toward Jesus and found peace during his incarceration. Since being released, Chaney's life is forever changed as he continues to seek Jesus in every aspect of his life.
What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived--the things God has prepared for those who love him. (1 Corinthians 2:9)
