Paperback. Condizione: Good. The discovery of a corpse washed up on a beach in an Icelandic backwater sparks a series of events that propels the village of Hvalvik's police sergeant Gunnhildur into deep waters. Although under pressure to deal with the matter quickly, she is suspicious that the man's death was no accident and once she has identified the body, sets about investigating his final hours. The case takes Gunnhildur away from her village and into a cosmopolitan world of shady deals, government corruption and violence. She finds herself alone and less than welcome in this hostile environment as she tries to find out who it was that made sure the young man drowned on a dark night one hundred kilometres from where he should have been - and why. Although born in the UK in 1962, through a series of coincidences Quentin Bates found himself working in Iceland in his gap year. The gap year then became 10 years, during which time he managed to get himself married, produce a family, and generally go native in Iceland. The family then moved back to the UK in 1990 where Quentin became a full-time journalist on a commercial fishing magazine. Frozen Assets was born through the author's own inside knowledge of Iceland and its society, along with exploring the world of crime. He and his (Icelandic) wife frequently return to Iceland, where they have many friends, including several in the Reykjavik police.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Since Kenya was a developing nation, I expected it to be 'behind' in many things. But there were numerous ways I found Africans to be more advanced than Americans. The gracious way they treated others and the way clocks did not rule over people, are a couple of examples. Tasks were set aside; watches (when worn at all) were ignored for the chance to talk with a visitor. Tea or whatever food was available was brought out and shared in order to make you feel accepted and welcome (even if it meant the host would later have to go hungry). Among the members of our team, I felt the least prepared for the journey upon which we were about to embark. But I was soon to learn many lessons that I never would have learned any other way; lessons I still hold dear to my heart today Even though some of our time in Kenya was very challenging, it was so life altering for me that I would not trade it for anything. It was there that my faith in God truly became my own. I hope to share with you some of the experiences and lessons I learned. Believe me there is nothing particularly complex or miraculous in them; just a young woman trying her best to fit into a culture that was not her own. If you will, put yourself in the stories. Think about how you would react in the same situation. Hopefully, you'll take away a better understanding of yourself and God's sovereignty like I was able to do. I'm doing my part by telling the stories. I hope you will do your part by listening and then remembering.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The same country that inspired Katharine Lee Bates in 1893 to write America the Beautiful inspired Neil Waldman, one hundred years later, to illustrate Bates's poem with gorgeous acrylic paintings. Waldman's stunning panoramas take us from coast-to-coast: from Niagara Falls to Napa's fruited plains, from Mount Rushmore to the Statue of Liberty. In the back of the book, there is a glossary that provides readers with more information about each site. Also included is the sheet music for the song America the Beautiful, combining Bates's poem with the music of Samuel A. Ward's hymn. Join Katharine Lee Bates and Neil Waldman as they marvel at the beauty of our country, and celebrate its glory. Waldman, Neil (illustratore).…
