The Afterlife in Early Christian Carthage


Book Description

The Afterlife in Early Christian Carthage explores how the visionary experiences of early Christian martyrs shaped and informed early Christian ancestor cult and the construction of the cemetery as paradise. Taking the early Christian cemeteries in Carthage as a case study, the volume broadens our understanding of the historical and cultural origins of the early Christian cult of the saints, and highlights the often divergent views about the dead and post-mortem realms expressed by the church fathers, and in graveside ritual and the material culture of the cemetery. This fascinating study is a key resource for students of late antique and early Christian culture.

The Reunion


Book Description

High school reunions can be murder... Meghan Donohue is no longer the fat girl she was in high school. Slimmed down and successful, she's made a name for herself as a bestselling mystery author. So why is the thought of seeing her girlhood crush again so daunting? Zach Dunbar is not the skinny computer geek of long ago. Well-muscled and prosperous, he owns a multi-million dollar software corporation. But will it be enough to interest the girl he dreamed about all through high school? Before they can make a connection, though, someone starts killing off members of the former "in" crowd, and Zach and Meghan must pool their expertise to help nail a murderer. As they unravel secret alliances and old grudges, their attraction develops into something much stronger. Can they stop the murders--and finally confess their love--before a killer destroys them all?
