Marshal Aislinn Cain and the serial crimes tracking unit are sent to New York City to investigate murders identical to murders committed during the 1980s. However, the serial killer responsible for the original murders is dead, killed in a shootout with the NYPD when they cornered him dumping his last victim. This new series of murders though includes details never released. Only the medical examiner’s office and investigators working the case knew the killer shoved straight pins in the soles of his victim’s feet. Every murdered woman, dumped in the same location as the original victims, in this new series has, not just the straight pins, but the same brand, pushed into the soles of their feet. The SCTU will need to reinvestigate the original case to ensure the NYPD got the correct man, while investigating this new series and identifying reasons someone would replicate this particular series of murders. During their investigation, they’ll meet the nemesis of murdered hero US Marshal Nathan Green. Can they vindicate Marshal Green’s suspicions about his nemesis and solve both series of murders or will they leave NYC questioning if they got the right man too?

This is a meaty expos of the real hit men of Hollywood's last go-go decade.

Details the new phenomena of copycat crime inspired by technology and the hyperreality fueled in some people by digital culture and video games. Across her 30-year career in criminology, author Jacqueline Helfgott has watched with fascination and fear as the world has shifted from a place where one-dimensional televised news each evening and newspapers bought each morning provided the only information on crimes and killings. Now, nonstop, instant global news coverage on 24-hour television and the internet enables people to see and replay not only crime, violence, terrorism, and murder coverage provided by journalists in real time, but also Facebook and YouTube feeds filmed by the criminals themselves while perpetrating the crimes. In this riveting text about the consequences of our technical, digital, and cultural changes, Helfgott focuses on how these advances are perpetuating this era's new and more massively deadly acts. The book intertwines vignettes from current events, perpetrator statements, police reports, and current research to show how copycat crimes are linked to media, technology, and our digital culture. Concluding with recommendations to reduce the criminogenic effects of media, technology, and digital culture, this book also includes an appendix listing technology- and media-influenced copycat crimes.

"Testosterone Dreams is a detailed and frightening look at the shifting balance between patients' fantasies and the entrepreneurial bioscience that fuels these desires. Hoberman reveals the darker side of medicine that enhances athletic performances, and how the publicity given those performances generates wider demands for enhancement medicine. This book is a crucial contribution to the ethical deliberation of who we humans want to be, as bodies and as selves."—Arthur W. Frank, author of The Wounded Storyteller

Transhumanists advocate for the development and distribution of technologies that will enhance human intellectual, physical, and psychological capacities, even eliminate aging. What if the dystopian futures and transhumanist utopias found in the pages of science journals, Margaret Atwood novels, films like Gattaca, and television shows like Dark Angel are realized? What kind of world would humans have created? Maxwell J. Mehlman considers the promises and perils of using genetic engineering in an effort to direct the future course of human evolution. He addresses scientific and ethical issues without choosing sides in the dispute between transhumanists and their challengers. However, Transhumanist Dreams and Dystopian Nightmares reveals that radical forms of genetic engineering could become a reality much sooner than many people think, and that we need to encourage risk-management efforts. Whether scientists are dubious or optimistic about the prospects for directed evolution, they tend to agree on two things. First, however long it takes to perfect the necessary technology, it is inevitable that humans will attempt to control their evolutionary future, and second, in the process of learning how to direct evolution, we are bound to make mistakes. Our responsibility is to learn how to balance innovation with caution.

The book Create a Better Future by Working on Your Personal Dream is to define dreams and elaborate on what the dreams are and what dreaming is not. It is a wake-up call book for many people who are suffering in the midst of plenty simply because they actually have dreams and talents that can shift them to a better stage of their lives but the fear of the unknown is preventing them from making any move or use their talents to their own advantage and to the benefit of their communities and the world at large. The book is also written to let many people who are talented but haven't discovered their talents to discover their talents through examples and advice given in the body of this book and to remind readers that relying on their fathers' wealth or their uncles or aunties abroad cannot help their dream. Possible channels for fulfilling dreams are touched in the book for as many that are on the crossroads on their way to success to study and be encouraged to put into practice. This book is to remind the readers that people are poor not because they don't have money in their bank accounts but because they lack dreams, vision, and purpose and by exhibiting fear of unknown in their mind. Among the aim of this book is to remind the readers that borrowers are slaves to the lenders and to remind them that he who controls your time has control on your destiny and has a great influence on your life. That is the case of employers to employees regardless of your position in your present jobs as employee. Reasons why many university and college degree certificates holders are poor and serving as slaves to people in authority and the few rich who can take risks and work on their dreams even though they don't bag as much university degree is emphasized on in this book. More also, one of the major purposes of this book is to remind the brilliant students that school rewards people for their memory. Life rewards people for their creativity and ability to solve problems. Your degree or certificate is not the cure to poverty; the cure to poverty is your ability to see and seize opportunities. Possible advice to the common problems facing the university and college graduates that are struggling to make ends meet and those that are making it but want to shift to the next level of their greatness are included in chapters of this book. The power of simple things is described in the chapter of this book by showing examples of simple thing that are easy for people to do to transform their lives but they keep failing to do at every point of their lives daily. This is among the reasons why this book is published. The constant law of wealth creation is mentioned in this book.

The ability to turn challenges into opportunities and to diffuse the fear of the unknown in the mind of those who don't have hope in their future by letting them know that they are unstoppable by showing them how will be read in this book. The way you think has a great role to play concerning what you will become in life. Your thought is what you become. If you cannot change your thought, you cannot change your life. This book was written to encourage the readers on the need to think progressively and the positive effects of progressive thinking. Inclusive in this book is the need for the reader to be well-informed in whatever areas in business, career, or community they find themselves. The sure path to failure is when a man is ignorant and yet rejects every opportunity to obtain relevant knowledge. If you know your assignment, you will know what your needs are. Where you will get to in life is determined by your assignment. Reading this book will open ways for readers on how to recognize individual assignments and how to work in fulfilling the assignment rather than wasting time in doing what they were not called to do. Time is such a commodity that when spent can never be recovered. This book encourages readers to rise to their various challenges and reminds the readers of the importance of time management. Overall, this book serves as the GPS to navigate through the basic challenges of life and as a daily life devotional and motivational tool that encourages people to face and overcome the daily life challenges. Many of these reasons and more to be discovered as you read on the book are inclusive. I strongly believe the confidence needed to believe in yourself and instinct to work on your personal dream will be developed as you read the book.
