    At the age of forty-three, Amy Lee Lillard learned she was autistic. She learned she was part of a community of unseen women who fell through the gaps due to medical bias and social stereotypes. 
     
     
     
    A Grotesque Animal explores the making, unmaking, and making again of a woman with an undiagnosed disorder. How did a working-­class background and a deep-rooted Midwest culture of silence lead to hiding in plain sight for decades? How did sexuality and anger hide the roots of trauma among the women in her family? And what does it mean to be a queer, disabled, aging woman, a descendant of wild but tamed mothers and a survivor of the things patriarchy inflicts? 
     
     
     
    Through wide-ranging styles and a combination of personal storytelling and cultural analysis, Lillard dissects anger, sexuality, autistic masking, bodies, punk, and female annihilation to create a new picture of modern women.

    In March 2011, a major police investigation was opened in the search for missing Swindon local, Sian O'Callaghan. When taxi driver Christopher Halliwell was arrested, Detective Superintendent Stephen Fulcher didn't expect what happened next. 
     
     
     
    After the body of another missing girl, Becky Godden-Edwards, was uncovered, the police had two murders on their hands and one suspect, but how many more unsolved murders could Christopher Halliwell be responsible for? The hidden cache of around sixty pieces of women's clothing and accessories that he led police to suggests that the number could be much higher than the two murders he has been convicted of. 
     
     
     
    In The New Millennium Serial Killer, former police intelligence officer Chris Clark and true crime podcast host Bethan Trueman use their in-depth research to present a comprehensive study into convicted killer Christopher Halliwell. With a foreword by former Detective Superintendent Stephen Fulcher, this book presents a fascinating account of this cruel killer and tells the heartbreaking stories of over twenty women whose cases remain unsolved today, seeking to find justice for their loved ones who are still waiting for answers. Do they remain with Christopher Halliwell and the collection of women's items?

    JACK CRIVALLE takes us on a matter-of-fact, step-by-step, emotional ride as to what takes place during a hostile corporate takeover. This one is personal, a Southwest Chicagoland thriving community newspaper, is ripped from his father’s control. We see an inside view of real people’s desperation when the very means by which they feed their families, pay their mortgages, and save for their children’s college tuition are jeopardized. Witness what lengths people will sometimes go, to protect their own interests at the expense of others. Large corporate greed, non-compassion, humiliation, and inefficiencies are not left out of this look, at the all-too-common tactics of corporate takeovers.
