November2001. The holy month of Ramadan. With the world reeling from the attack on the twin towers, a Delta team is furiously hunting a master terrorist amongst an isolated expatriate community in the mountains of Saudi Arabia. The carefully planted bait, a family matter of honour. Visiting his estranged wife and child on the military hospital compound, Riad al Ajmi, British educated homicide detective, realises a serial killer -- a shadowy spectre of a cat -- has been prowling for more than a decade, the authorities in denial for reasons of their own. His own family in imminent danger, Riad investigates the exotic expat community, uncovering deeply buried dark secrets. His journey takes him into the world of virtual slavery, prostitution and drug trafficking in The Kingdom where to be caught can mean a public beheading.A world where a thing is only a sin if found out. Riad finds himself hunted as powerful forces close in and things come to a terrifying head in the all revealing Night of Power.
Mrs Charlotte De Granville wanted a quiet, unobtrusive, not too clever private detective for a very discreet little job. The nature of the assignment dictated a certain economy of truth when it came to briefing said detective. He would detect and she would take care of the rest -- with extreme prejudice. Anthony M Moretti, failed golf pro, onetime Miami nightclub hustler and more recently PI specializing in divorce work, fitted the bill rather nicely. So Tony got the job and the kind of trip that would take him from the glitter of Cape Town's jet set to the rotten underbelly of pulsating Durban to the tropical paradise of the Comoros Islands. Somewhere along the way things become complicated. Things like a black eyed beauty with a voice like Nina Simone or a woman who could stomach a revolution but not a man's betrayal. A young mercenary with hope in his heart and technicolor illusions of an Africa long faded to dusty decay. And an ageing soldier of fortune who really should have known better...

This volume deals with the submerged literature of ancient Greece; that is, all the texts produced for socially relevant events that have contributed to the configuration and articulation of ancient Greek culture as we know it. In particular, the hermeneutic tool of submerged literature may shed new light on the dynamics behind the 'emersion' or 'submersion' of certain texts during different periods. The category of submerged literature is extended here to include preserved and lost texts as well as those texts that can be reconstructed through investigation. The volume investigates the manifold speech acts that we know of through various sources and that, either from the outset or over the course of time, have been placed at the edge of diffusion, conservation and transmission. The essays contained in the volume deal with questions of hermeneutics, philology and methodology, as well as with epic cycles, lyric poetry, tragedy, comedy, satyr drama, and mime. By approaching these genres from the perspective of submerged literature, the book tries to provide a more precise contextualization of the texts within the communication system of ancient Greece. The book thus presents a new line of research and a series of studies that take a fresh look at the texts and all archaeological and iconographic sources relating to Greek culture, taking into account the results of ethnographic and anthropological research. This extensive investigation examines unique ancient Greek orality and literacy dynamics using a new hermeneutic frame that will hopefully reshape our understanding of ancient Greek culture.

These female characters are from Man and Superman, Major Barbara, Candida, Arms and the Man, Pygmalion, Mrs. Warren s Profession, Saint Joan, Misalliance, The Philanderer. The Study of Shavian Plays forms an integral part of the curriculum of various universities. Hence an attempt has been made to familiarize scholars and researchers of Shaw with some rare and valuable critical material.
