A Florida process server trying to pick up the pieces of his life looks into a hit-and-run mystery in this “compelling” crime novel by the Edgar Award winner (Kirkus Reviews). Lew Fonesca is a man who does things for people. He makes small problems go away and tries to keep the larger ones from landing his clients in jail. He finds deadbeats and errant spouses, and generally keeps the populace of Sarasota on the up and up. Now Lew is faced with one case that will try his patience . . . and another that may break his heart. The first involves an elderly woman who swears she’s witnessed a murder in her old age home despite the fact that everyone she tells her story to—her family, the hospital staff, and finally the cops—tell her that it just couldn’t have happened. The other has Lew trying to identify a hit-and-run driver who killed a fourteen-year-old boy, and dredges up some very painful memories. As Lew begins to dig deeper into both cases he finds that they’re tied together in ways he can’t hope to untangle. And when someone tries to run him down, he knows he’s getting close to some nasty home truths . . . Praise for the Lew Fonesca series “A psychologically acute and fast-moving crime series.” —Booklist “Kaminsky is such a pro that the pages fly by, and even though Lew is often such a sad sack, it’s hard not to root for him.” —Chicago Tribune “Grabs readers and takes them on a memorably tumultuous ride.” —Publishers Weekly

Enriched by its official policies of multiculturalism, gender equality, and human rights, the Canadian public is occasionally shocked by glaring acts of racist and sexist violence brought to their attention by the sensationalist media. But nobody pauses to consider the historical antecedents and root causes of these tragedies. Discourses of Denial uncovers how racism, sexism, and violence interweave deep within the foundations of our society. Using examples from the lives of immigrant girls and women of colour, Yasmin Jiwani considers the way accepted definitions of race and gender shape and influence public consciousness. In linking race, gender, and violence, this book makes an important contribution to our understanding of the complex and interconnected influences that shape the violence of contemporary social reality and that contour the lives of racialized women.

Drawing on scores of deep memories from her many clients, Louisa Crisp shows that we can be free. By shedding negative emotions, traumas and conditioning, we shine from the Divine essence that lives within. This inextinguishable light cannot be taken from us, yet many are choosing to live in fear and judgment, in ‘separation’. The Alpha and the Omega takes us on a breath-taking journey, from the moment our cosmos began to the present day, revealing the cause of separation and the beginning of duality. The second part of the book focuses on the life of Jesus, the first person who was able to let go of his fears completely and to live in total alignment with Source. Many valuable memories are revealed from individuals who lived during that time. Louisa shows how we can take steps to free ourselves from emotional turmoil, caused by separation from our true self. By listening above all to our intuition, we can embark on a voyage to the very core of our being. This, we will discover, is the path to enlightenment.
