The true story of the Manson murders.
Helter-Shelter is an ethnographic account of the manner in which an emergency shelter is governed on a daily basis, from the perspective of the personnel who are employed and tasked with providing care. Prashan Ranasinghe focuses on how the founding ethos of the shelter, an ethic of care, is conceptualized and practiced by examining its successes and failures. Ranasinghe reveals how this logic is diluted and adulterated because of two other important logics, security and legality, which, working alongside, take precedence and trump the import of care. The care that is deployed is heavily legalized and securitized and it is also administered inconsistently and idiosyncratically. As a result, disorder and confusion pervade the shelter. Helter-Shelter offers a unique perspective on the delivery of care, and how this laudable intention faces such daunting challenges.

After witnessing his father's death and sending his mom to rehab, he's forced to live with his estranged uncle Myron and switch high schools. A new school comes with new friends and new enemies, and lucky for Mickey, it also comes with a great new girlfriend, Ashley. For a while, it seems like Mickey's train-wreck of a life is finally improving - until Ashley vanishes without a trace. Unwilling to let another person walk out of his life, Mickey follows Ashley's trail into a seedy underworld that reveals that this seemingly sweet, shy girl isn't who she claimed to be. And neither was Mickey's father. Soon, Mickey learns about a conspiracy so shocking that it makes high school drama seem like a luxury - and leaves him questioning everything about the life he thought he knew.

With this new series, Coben introduces an entirely new generation of fans to the masterful plotting and wry humor that have made him an award-winning, internationally bestselling, and beloved author.

A Manson insider's take on the famous murder case
The Trouble with Friday takes its readers on a roller coaster of adventure and laughter, while delving into the frightening reality of underworld brutality. This cozy mystery explores the entangled web of crime and violencewhere innocence becomes the victim, and evil threatens a peaceful town. When My Dog Friday brings his owner a special treasure, Daisy Blossom contacts self-appointed sleuth Emily Blossom to solve a mystery of murder and intrigue. In spite of a daunting lack of suspects, Detective Emilys quest for truth and justice is remarkable, especially considering her age (beyond calculation), and her height (a mere one metre and a half, barely five feet tall). She enlists the help of her friend, antique dealer Pete Picken, and his truck, much to his dismay and protestation. The sleepy village of Emerald Hill in Eastern Ontario, Canada, is rife with rumours and gossip about their adventures. The Trouble with Friday sends chills down your spine, even while youre laughing Emily does it again!
