  Eleven stories of deadly doings in Missouri by “a standout writer of terse, staccato prose and vivid details” (The Omaha Reader).   Missouri has a bloody history dating back to frontier days—not just in St. Louis or Kansas City but in small towns and rural hamlets where one local summed up how Missourians prefer to handle conflicts: You shoot, you shovel, and you shut up. In this book, David J. Krajicek recounts eleven true tales of shocking and infamous crimes in the state, among them:     The St. Louis barroom murder that inspired the popular song “Stagger Lee”   The vigilante killing of Ken McElroy, the “town bully” of tiny Skidmore, MO   The heartless kidnapping and murder of millionaire Robert Greenlease’s son in Kansas City by a couple of St. Joseph barflies  The Kirkwood City Council massacre  The “throwaway” serial killings of over a dozen young prostitutes in Kansas City by a garbage collector  The forgotten story of “Cockeyed” Cook, a lost soul from Joplin who massacred an entire family and dumped them down a mineshaft  The “American Gothic” killers, farmer Ray Copeland and his wife, Faye, who murdered their farmhands near Chillicothe in a bizarre plot to make money—but made the mistake of planting their human crop too shallow  And more

  She sold her business to a billionaire dominatrix for £75 million. The price? One night as her submissive. 
  Desire’s Truth is an erotic lesbian romance about power, consent, and what it costs to give up control. Victoria Fraser has built an empire on precision and dominance, winning in the boardroom and in the bedroom. Then Suzette Conner-Wakeman, a razor-sharp billionaire with a taste for risk, makes an offer Victoria cannot ignore: seventy-five million pounds for her companies, on one condition that is not up for negotiation. For a single night, Victoria must submit completely. 
  With her wife Abby’s surprising encouragement, Victoria agrees, and a carefully staged encounter becomes something far more revelatory. Boundaries are planned, safewords are honoured, and aftercare is real, yet the experience exposes truths Victoria has kept locked away. Desire collides with trust, jealousy brushes against devotion, and the marriage at the centre of everything proves stronger than either woman dared to hope. 
  As Suzette’s motives come into focus and the trio navigate the consequences, Victoria and Abby must decide what their love looks like when old rules no longer fit. This is erotic lesbian romance that prizes character, chemistry, and emotional stakes, where intimacy is explicit, communication is clear, and surrender can be an act of power.For readers who crave erotic lesbian romance with a grown-up edge, Desire’s Truth delivers heat with heart, a marriage tested and deepened, and the intoxicating pull of choosing each other again.

  Beyond Welcome - Centering...

  Many American Christians have good intentions, working hard to welcome immigrants with hospitality and solidarity. But how can we do that in a way that empowers our immigrant neighbors rather than pushing them to the fringes of white-dominant culture and keeping them as outsiders? That's exactly the question Karen González explores in Beyond Welcome. 
   
   
   
  A Guatemalan immigrant, González draws from the Bible and her own experiences to examine why the traditional approach to immigration ministries and activism is at best incomplete and at worst harmful. By advocating for putting immigrants in the center of the conversation, González helps listeners grow in discipleship and recognize themselves in their immigrant neighbors. 
   
   
   
  Accessible to any Christian who is called to serve immigrants, this book equips listeners to take action to dismantle white supremacy and xenophobia in the church. They will emerge with new insight into our shared humanity and need for belonging and liberation.

  We See Things They’ll Never See...

  Ableism is embedded in our daily lives. Social life, education, work, and, especially, mental health have been organized around rigid ideas of the "ideal" and the "normal" citizen—ideas that always exclude neurodiversity. In this pathbreaking book, Chantelle Jessica Lewis and Jason Arday argue that the neurodiversity movement offers ways to mobilize against not only ableism but also other "isms" including racism and capitalism. By focusing on the prevalence of neurotypical dominance and power—or "neurotypical hegemony"—Lewis and Arday show the ways that neurotypical dominance has often been used to justify and normalize some of our more harmful cultures around productivity and value.Throughout the book, Lewis and Arday use theories of Blackness, feminism, class, and neurodivergence to offer a vision of solidarities across differences. They show that race, class, ethnicity, gender, and nation are just some of the social structures for which the politics of neurodiversity can produce an emancipatory analysis. This is a book about applying social theory in practice, taking seriously how academic research and theory can be used outside of academic spaces. With We See Things They’ll Never See, Lewis and Arday issue a call to action—and a call for understanding, acceptance, and humility.
