On October 17, 1987, Jack Alan Davis, Jr. disappeared. Five days later, his body was found at the bottom of a campus stairwell. By noon the next day, the county coroner announced he drank too much alcohol, passed out and choked to death on his own vomit not everyone believed him. This moving and ultimately redemptive book tells the story of Jack, the student who died at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, of the older brother who was determined to find out how Jack died, and of the tireless reporter who devoted herself to finding justice and truth for Jack's family. The true story takes readers from idyllic campus scenes haunted by imagines of senseless and brutal death, to the coroner's examination room, all while questioning how we treat the dead and how we treat those who survive.

In a world that's blacker than a demon's soul, only darkness can drive out darkness... Name's Ethan Drake: cop, vigilante, and bearer of more darkness than any single soul should possess. My partner's a demon, which ain't exactly the easiest thing to work with, if you know what I mean. But beggars can't be choosers, and when you're knee-deep in occult cases, you take what you can get. And we just caught a whiff of something rotten - real rotten. Seems some creepazoid's snatching bodies to bring forth something so nasty, it could make Satan himself retch. Not like I care about humanity's fate, but somebody's gotta stop this thing, right? Of course, it doesn't help that a demon has decided it wants to ride shotgun in my body, while the brass is breathing down my neck over some punk who deserved what he got. Oh, and I'm trying to solve the murders of my ex-wife and kid, too. And did I mention the Hellicorn with the sassiest mouth this side of Hell? Let's just say, that thing threatening humanity's future? I might just give it a helping hand... If Harry Bosch and John Constantine had a love child, it'd be this pulse-pounding, urban fantasy noir. Immerse yourself in a world of noir-ish mystery, urban fantasy, and action with the first book in the ETHAN DRAKE SERIES. Don't miss out on the thrills - get your copy now!

Four young people must master their powers in order to escape from a barren, dangerous land in these three novels by a Newbery Medal winner. The Justice Trilogy includes: Justice and Her Brothers: For Justice and her identical twin brothers Levi and Thomas, the summer begins like any other. But as the slow days pass, Justice begins to notice a strange energy between her brothers, beyond their normal twin connection. Thomas becomes increasingly bossy and irritable, while Levi seems weak and absentminded. And there are changes happening within Justice, as well. Soon she discovers that she possesses a mysterious, extraordinary ability—and she and her brothers must uncover the secrets behind their newfound powers. Dustland: Using their psychic abilities, four children have formed a unit: Justice, the Watcher; Dorian, the healer; Thomas, the magician; and Levi, the sufferer. Together, they mind-travel to a strange future world called Dustland. And together they can survive anything. But when tensions run high between Thomas and Justice, will Thomas leave them stranded in this desolate land? With the future of their unit uncertain, the children are threatened by an even greater danger: Mal, the evil entity that controls Dustland. The Gathering: Justice, Dorian, Thomas, and Levi have unfinished business in the future. Joining together once again and time-traveling to Dustland, they hope to guide the inhabitants out of the dangerous, barren place in the hopes of finding a safer home. But neither they nor the residents of Dustland are truly safe as long as the sinister Mal remains in power. This volume includes all three of these stories filled with fantasy and adventure, by an author who has won many awards, including the Boston Globe–Horn Book Award, the Hans Christian Andersen Award, and the Coretta Scott King Award, as well as the National Book Award for her novel M.C. Higgins, the Great.

Against the backdrop of rising populism around the world and democratic backsliding in countries with robust, multiparty elections, this book asks why ordinary people favor authoritarian leaders. Much of the existing scholarship on illiberal regimes and authoritarian durability focuses on institutional explanations, but Tsai argues that, to better understand these issues, we need to examine public opinion and citizens' concerns about retributive justice. Government authorities uphold retributive justice - and are viewed by citizens as fair and committed to public good - when they affirm society's basic values by punishing wrongdoers who act against these values. Tsai argues that the production of retributive justice and moral order is a central function of the state and an important component of state building. Drawing on rich empirical evidence from in-depth fieldwork, original surveys, and innovative experiments, the book provides a new framework for understanding authoritarian resilience and democratic fragility.
