A Taylor Case Mystery

Professor Taylor Case leads a dangerous double life and this time, it just might get her killed. The childhood abduction of her brother has left Dr. Taylor Case desperate for her father's redemption and denying her own desire to find love. While teaching Forensic Science at Georgetown University, she secretly hunts down child predators ensuring justice is served -- one way or another. As Taylor prepares to wrap-up fall semester, she finds herself in the middle of yet another treacherous child abduction, and this one is close to home. Following a birthday celebration for her niece, Taylor learns of the suspected abduction of her nephew's playmate Kevin. She grows impatient with the FBI's efforts to track down the missing boy in spite of the evidence she collects and shares with the dashing Agent Anderson. Driven by obsessive desire and unwilling to let history repeat itself, she initiates her own plan, knowing she must find Kevin soon if she is to find him at all. Taylor's efforts toward saving the missing boy draw her further and further into a chilling international web of child brokering, and this time she may have gone too far. In her dangerous attempt to rescue Kevin, Taylor finds herself the hunted, captured by a vengeful killer who intends to silence her permanently. Will it be too late for Kevin? The promising first installment in Cardins planned Taylor Case mystery series. Dr. Taylor Case, professor of forensic science at Georgetown University, has been obsessed with child predators since her brother David was abducted when they were children. At night, the professor masquerades as Hunter, tracking down those who exploit children by pretending to be one of them. When her youngnephews friend is kidnapped from his yard, Taylor deepens her involvement in the underworld of child pornographers and predators. But that makes her the target of some very dangerous people and brings the FBI to her doorstep, as theyre uncertain on which side of the law Taylor is operating. Her investigation into child exploitation is not the only aspect of her double lifeshe keeps her sexual preferences a secret from her hypercritical, overbearing father. As entranced as she is by her new love interest, the mesmerizing female Czech art authenticator Alex Haas, Taylor has doubts about her honesty. Cardin takes the reader on a gritty, disturbing journey to a world most would prefer not to knowpopulated by those who get their kicks from and make obscene amounts of money off perversion. Despite the chilling realism of the story, the author imbues the plot with some cautious optimism, not just for Taylor but for those she struggles to save. Comparable to the work of Tess Gerritsen, Patricia Cornwell and Kathy Reichs, Case Study defies easy categorization, with elements of forensic, procedural and cozy mysteries, but with a gay-friendly romance subploteven if the concluding love scene reads like an afterthought. Well-written, suspenseful and meticulously plotted, Cardins debut novel is flawed only by Taylors near perfection. Her beauty, brilliance and superior investigative abilities become implausible as the book progresses. An impressive first mystery.

My Month of Madness

An award-winning memoir and instant New York Times bestseller--and inspiration for the major motion picture starring Chloë Grace Moretz--that goes far beyond its riveting medical mystery, Brain on Fire is the powerful account of one woman's struggle to recapture her identity.

When twenty-four-year-old Susannah Cahalan woke up alone in a hospital room, strapped to her bed and unable to move or speak, she had no memory of how she'd gotten there. Days earlier, she had been on the threshold of a new, adult life: at the beginning of her first serious relationship and a promising career at a major New York newspaper. Now she was labeled violent, psychotic, a flight risk. What happened?

In a swift and breathtaking narrative, Susannah tells the astonishing true story of her descent into madness, her family's inspiring faith in her, and the lifesaving diagnosis that nearly didn't happen. "A fascinating look at the disease that...could have cost this vibrant, vital young woman her life" (People), Brain on Fire is an unforgettable exploration of memory and identity, faith and love, and a profoundly compelling tale of survival and perseverance that is destined to become a classic.

A Vodou Priestess in Brooklyn

Vodou is among the most misunderstood and maligned of the world's religions. Mama Lola shatters the stereotypes by offering an intimate portrait of Vodou in everyday life. Drawing on a 35 year long friendship with Mama Lola, a Vodou priestess, Karen McCarthy Brown tells tales spanning five generations of Vodou healers in Mama Lola's family, beginning with an African ancestor and ending with Claudine Michel's account of working with Mama Lola after the Haitian earthquake. Out of these stories, in which dream and vision flavor everyday experience and the Vodou spirits guide decision making, Vodou emerges as a religion focused on healing brought about by mending broken relationships between the living, the dead, and the Vodou spirits.

Deeply exploring the role of women in religious practices and the related themes of family and of religion and social change, Brown provides a rich context in which to understand the authority that urban Haitian women exercise in the home and in the Vodou temple.

Choosing among Five Traditions

This book explores the philosophical underpinnings, history and key elements of five qualitative inquiry traditions: biography, phenomenology, grounded theory, ethnography and case study. John W Creswell relates research designs to each of the traditions of inquiry and compares each of the research strategies for theoretical frameworks, writing introduction to studies, collecting data, analyzing data, writing the narrative, and employing standards of quality and verifying results. Five journal articles in the appendix offer fascinating reading as well as examples of the five different qualitative designs.
