A rare and fascinating glimpse inside New Zealand policing - from an officer at the heart of it all. A serial rapist is stalking South Auckland in 1980s New Zealand and police are stumped - they can't seem to find the man they call "The Ghost" before he strikes again. In this incredible memoir of his nearly four decades as a police officer, David "Chook" Henwood tells the true story of how he and his fellow officers developed the system that would put The Ghost, Joseph Thompson, behind bars - and change the way policing was done in this country forever. As a key player in the development of the nascent Criminal Profiling Unit, Henwood was at the heart of operations which locked up not just Thompson, but also the serial rapist Malcolm Rewa - and he would be an early and steadfast advocate for Teina Pora's innocence. Henwood, one of the country's most decorated and respected police officers, started out as a wet-behind-the-ears police cadet in South Auckland, his lifelong patch and home, and would progress to become one of the country's finest detectives and a highly respected investigator. From almost jovial relationships with small time criminals to dogged investigations to catch serious violent offenders, Henwood looks back at the nearly 40 years he spent as a sworn police officer and reflects on what's changed in this country - and what hasn't.

Mother Teresa was voted the most admired person of the 20th century, and is loved the world over. Still, she was not without her critics. This book closely examines their accusations. What virtually all of her critics have in common is an unabiding disdain for Catholicism—most were, or are, militant atheists. Their strong embrace of socialism is another conspicuous characteristic. What they abhor about Mother Teresa is her strong faith and her altruism. Mother Teresa's conviction that life begins in the womb, and that abortion is a violent act, does not sit well with her atheist critics. They are also contemptuous of her private, voluntary efforts to tend to the needs of the poor: socialists see such behavior as a deterrent to state programs, the only ones they find acceptable. No one was more harsh in his criticism of Mother Teresa than Christopher Hitchens. He locked horns many times with Bill Donohue, and some of those exchanges are recounted in this volume. Neither man was shy about defending his position, and both let loose on each other. This book, unlike the work of Mother Teresa's critics, offers plenty of evidence; the sources are amply noted. Those who have been curious about the charges made by her detractors will find this book an invaluable resource. It unmasks her critics and puts to rest the cruel myths they promoted about her.
