On a desolate road in the Oregon high desert, an apprentice mortician stumbles upon a horrific car crash--and into a vortex of treachery, long-buried secrets, and growing menace. Melisende Dulac is a fish out of water after relocating from the East Coast to a small community in the Oregon high desert. But just as she's beginning to think of Barlow County as home, her life takes an ominous turn when she comes upon a grisly multiple car wreck and three shattered bodies on an isolated road outside of town. Near the scene, Melisende trips over a fourth body, that of a newborn girl lying a physics-defying distance from the wreckage. There is no one to claim the infant, nor a clear indication she was even part of the accident. The crash offers plenty of opportunities for an apprentice mortician--but when the victims' bodies are stolen from her family's mortuary, Melisende is branded suspect number one. Then, Portland lawyer Kendrick Pride arrives on the scene on behalf of one of the victim's families--or so he says--and Melisende begins to see that there's much more to this enigmatic figure than meets the eye. As the shadows gather and the mystery deepens, Melisende must race to find the truth--or be swallowed by the darkness.

We live in an era of relaxed attitudes towards sex and relationships. It seems that anything and everything goes. The more outlandish, the greater the applause. Yet occasionally, we are confronted with a backlash. "Crimes of passion" challenge our complacency. No attempt is made to provide an explanation for the stalking and "revenge porn". They seem incomprehensible. M. A. Cameron offers insights into this modern relational minefield by looking to the wisdom of the past. Drawing on the images of Camelot and that era of chivalry, she then examines the Christian scriptures to give guidance to those who would seek peace and fulfilment.

It is the future. The global landscape has been turned on its head. Nations have fractured, governments have crumbled, and artificial intelligence is shaping the course of human existence. Scotland has survived a tumultuous century and is forging into the future. But although it has moved on from the primitive, obsolescent times of the twenty-first century, there is still poverty, crime and, at times, anarchy.Enter the Gang of Seven, an eclectic group plucked from the varied echelons of Scotland's population. These bold representatives convene at a grandiose Scottish estate to formulate a constitution to revolutionise the lives of Scots everywhere, through a series of discourses. Told from the perspective of a national historian, using contemporary evidence from these discourses, the persistent struggle to define what a ‘perfect' society would be is explored with a thought-provoking mix of gravitas and hilarity.
