[A] mordant debut novel....examines what it means to covet the lives of others, no matter the cost.--The New York Times
Tense, twisty, and packed with shocks.--Riley Sager, New York Times bestselling author of Survive The Night
Six friends. One college reunion. One unsolved murder.
Ten years after graduation, Jessica Miller has planned her triumphant return to her southern, elite Duquette University, down to the envious whispers that are sure to follow in her wake. Everyone is going to see the girl she wants them to see--confident, beautiful, indifferent. Not the girl she was when she left campus, back when Heather Shelby's murder fractured everything, including the tight bond linking the six friends she'd been closest to since freshman year.
But not everyone is ready to move on. Not everyone left Duquette ten years ago, and not everyone can let Heather's murder go unsolved. Someone is determined to trap the real killer, to make the guilty pay. When the six friends are reunited, they will be forced to confront what happened that night--and the years' worth of secrets each of them would do anything to keep hidden.
Told in racing dual timelines, with a dark campus setting and a darker look at friendship, love, obsession, and ambition, In My Dreams I Hold A Knife is an addictive, propulsive read you won't be able to put down.
Beautiful writing, juicy secrets, complex female characters, and drumbeat suspense--what more could you want from a debut thriller?--Andrea Bartz, author of Reese's Book Club pick We Were Never Here

Описание:
In Fifteenth-Century Lives, Karen A. Winstead identifies and explores a major shift in the writing of Middle English saints' lives. As she demonstrates, starting in the 1410s and '20s, hagiography became more character-oriented, more morally complex, more deeply embedded in history, and more politically and socially engaged. Further, it became more self-consciously literary and began to feature women more prominently--and not only traditional virgin martyrs but also matrons and contemporary holy women. Winstead shows that this literature placed a premium on scholarship and teaching. Hagiography celebrated educators and scholars to a greater extent than ever before and became a vehicle for educating readers about Christian dogma. Focusing both on authors well known, such as John Lydgate and Margery Kempe, and on others less known, such as Osbern Bokenham and John Capgrave, Winstead argues that the values promoted by fifteenth-century hagiography helped to shape the reformist impulses that eventually produced the Reformation. Moreover, these values continued to influence post-Reformation hagiography, both Protestant and Catholic, well into the seventeenth century.
In exploring these trends in fifteenth-century hagiography, identifying the factors that contributed to their emergence, and tracing their influence in later periods, Fifteenth-Century Lives marks an important contribution to revisionary scholarship on fifteenth-century literature. It will appeal to students and scholars of late medieval English literature and late medieval religion.

It may manifest as abnormalities in the heart valves, the interior walls of the heart, and the large blood vessels that lead from and to the heart. The symptoms include poor weight gain, rapid breathing, feeling of exhaustion and bluish skin.

In other cases, the diagnosis can be made shortly after birth or sometimes several months and years after birth. A CHD is generally serious and requires surgery, medications or a combination of both. Most individuals with CHDs need specialized care throughout their lifetime. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the assessment and management of congenital heart defects. It aims to present researches that have transformed the field of cardiology and aided its advancement. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, this book targets students and professionals.

Описание:
In this second installment in the Ultimate series, Judge Raleigh Westlake and the secret tribunal continue to prosecute criminals who have escaped justice. In their mobile courtroom, the cabal targets a judge who has taken bribes in exchange for lenient sentences and a politician linked to the murder of a young woman a quarter century in the past. In his real courtroom, Judge Westlake oversees the trial of an 18 year old accused of rampaging through a Christmas party, killing dozens. But the defendant has been framed.
As the story unfolds, long-buried secrets are revealed. The Judge himself is linked to the death of a client and her children while he was still in law school. Caroline Bannister, the zealous federal prosecutor who saved them all from certain capture in Ultimate Verdict, seeks to avenge her sister's death at all costs. In her quest for justice, she becomes blinded by revenge.
Judge Westlake and Caroline Bannister become entangled romantically, though neither fully trusts the other. As the trial of accused terrorist Abdul Alnoor commences, they become ensnared in a web of deceit perpetrated by the real terrorist--Viktor Volkov. Volkov, a Russian spy embedded in America as a plastic surgeon, has planted damning evidence to frame Alnoor. Though Alnoor professes his innocence, his prosecution steams forward unabated.
When the cabal sets free that judge who took bribes, Caroline secretly returns and kills him, making it look like suicide. And the cabal has made a critical mistake--they have trusted Caroline. In pursuing the Mayor of Charlotte for the death of her sister, Caroline is blinded to the truth. She alters evidence to serve her own agenda, convincing the others that the politician is guilty. At the end of the politician's trial in the secret courtroom, before sentence can be imposed, Caroline brutally executes the Mayor.
A missing cell phone holds evidence that has never been unearthed. When the cell phone surfaces at the end of the novel, it contains a video that exculpates the politician, a revelation that sends them all into a tailspin. They have murdered an innocent man. In their misguided pursuit of the politician, they have veered straight into the path of the real terrorist. And they become his target.
As the trial of accused terrorist Abdul Alnoor gets underway, the real terrorist blackmails Judge Westlake and Caroline Bannister. In the critical climax, the secret tribunal must make their most difficult decision: Do they save themselves, or an innocent man?

Описание:
Virgin martyrs make up one of the largest categories of medieval saints. To judge by their frequent appearances in art and literature, they also figure among the most venerated. The legends of virgin martyrs, retold in various ways through the centuries, illuminate trends in popular piety, values, and literary tastes. Chaste Passions contains sixteen English virgin martyr legends, each of a different saint and each translated into colloquial, modern English prose. Faithful in tone and meaning to the originals, Karen Winstead's lively translations allow contemporary readers to appreciate why virgin martyr legends thrived for hundreds of years. Winstead presents the tales in chronological order, tracing the effects of the composition and tastes of the audience on the development of the genre. The virgin martyr, Winstead tells us, escapes the confining female stereotypes—demure maiden or disruptive shrew—prevalent in writings of the period. Because nearly all of the texts were written by men but addressed to women, they exhibit a fascinating interplay between male views of so-called women's literature and the demands of their intended audience. Familiarity with this widely read genre is essential to a full understanding of medieval culture, and Chaste Passions is an excellent introduction to these often racy, sometimes comic, tales

Описание: Today we think of ukiyo-e - `the pictures of the floating world` - as masterpieces of Japanese art. Yet it is often said that ukiyo-e were little appreciated in their own time. Julie Nelson Davis debunks this myth and demonstrates that ukiyo-e was thoroughly appreciated as a field of artistic production, worthy of connoisseurship by contemporaries.
