A young woman is brutally murdered on an island near Stockholm – a haunt of wealthy retirees and arty weekenders. Suspicion falls first on a family of Iraqi refugees, initially welcomed into the community but gradually feared and shunned. But then, as the victim's story unfolds, suspicion begins inexorably to fall elsewhere. Lena Sundman was rude, dysfunctional, and very young. Everything a fastidious man like Dan Byrne disliked. Taking refuge on the island after the sudden death of his wife, Dan finds himself strangely drawn to the troubled girl, starting from the moment he reluctantly rescues her in the teeth of a gathering snowstorm. This is a taut, elegantly chilling drama in the tradition of Scandinavian masters from Ibsen to Larsson.

Although love is the hallmark of humanity, it is not widely discussed in social work and other related professions with respect to its potential connection to abuse. In this groundbreaking book the author argues that, while love and abuse should not co-exist, they often do. Using a feminist narrative approach, stories about love, abuse, and social work are told with the purpose of understanding domestic violence and other forms of abuse. Based on interviews with 84 women of varying ages in Canada and Australia, the author shows how the pain and shame of intimate abuse can leave its mark on the bodies, minds, and souls of victims/survivors long after abusive episodes have ended. Additionally, Fraser also discusses the importance of hope, "enlightened witnesses," income support, and educational opportunities for women who refuse to renounce love relationships altogether, but are instead trying to foster relationships that are respectful as well as erotic.

Written with age and knowledge taken into consideration, these are one man's reflections on the changes in the lives of gay men over the past 70 years. History alone will tell its own story, but this book comprises the personal memories and experiences of Tim, who was born in the first Baby Boom. From the simple act of 'coming out' to friends and family to the admission of behaving normally to conform with belief or expectancy, and the heartache this can cause many years down the line, it is hoped that the subjects covered will help even just one soul to realise they have done no wrong, but accept the true fact of life...it's a 'sin,' but all in the name of love. The book is aimed at anyone who feels trapped in marriage, who remains 'in the closet' because of the laws and the fear of being outed.
