The name the beleaguered inhabitants give to the place they live. A no-man's land of single mothers and fatherless children where angry, alienated teenagers c…ontrol the streets. Into this battleground comes Sophie Morrison, a young doctor visiting a patient in Acid Row. Little does she know she that is entering the home of a known paedophile. And with reports circulating that a tormented child called Amy has disappeared, the vigilantes are out in force. Soon Sophie is trapped at the centre of a terrifying siege, with a man she has come to despise. Whipped to a frenzy by unsubstaniated rumour, the mob unleashes its hatred. Against authority, the law, and the pervert. "Protecting Amy" becomes the catch-all defence for the terrible events that follow. And if murder is part of it, then so be it.

Softcover. Condizione: Fine. Leichte Rillen / Abschürfungen / Risse / Knicke; Gebrochener Buchrücken; Farbtonänderung. In 1970 Howard Stamp, a retarded 20-year-old, was convicted on disputed evidence of brutally murdering his grandmother in her Dorset home. Less than three years later he was dead, driven to suicide by self-hatre…d and relentless bullying by other prisoners. A fate befitting a murderer, perhaps, but what if he was innocent? When 34-year-old anthropologist Dr. Jonathan Hughes re-examines Stampâs case for a book on injustice, his research into the written evidence leads him to believe that Stamp was wrongly convicted. But is the forgotten story of one friendless young man compelling enough to persuade Jonathan to confront the real murderer? One person believes it is. George Gardener, sixty, has been trying to bring Stampâs case to public attention for years and has unearthed new evidence that might exonerate him. But Gardener needs the young academic on board if it is to be used to maximum effect. On the face of it, there is no similarity between the illiterate Stamp and the highly educated Hughes, yet their lives resonate through their damaged childhoods and their mutual sense of exclusion. With the threat of war in Iraq dominating British hearts and minds, there begins a battle closer to home: an attempt to prove a grotesque miscarriage of justice. But if the killer is still at large.

Softcover. Condizione: Fine. Leichte Risse; Farbveranderung durch Alter/Sonne. One look at Lt. Charles Acland's disfigured face and anyone can see that the Iraqi bomb that blew up two of his men has left him profoundly changed--but have his traumatic brain injuries altered the young British army officer's personality enough to m…ake him a murderer? That's the narrative fuse Edgar-winner Walters (The Devil's Feather) lights to ignite this sizzling psychological thriller. She skillfully interweaves strands of Acland's story, including notes from the military psychiatrist treating him, with the hunt for a serial killer who's claimed at least three victims in South London. Then another man is beaten within an inch of his life not long after Acland's move into the neighborhood. When the lieutenant gets into a near-fatal bar fight with a Pakistani stockbroker, Acland's unlikely savior is a 250-pound lesbian weight lifter and doctor named Jackson. Surprisingly, Jackson is also one of the few convincing characters in this plot-propelled tale, a flaw readers may be willing to ignore--until they slam into a contrived denouement well below Walters's usual standard.

Softcover. Condizione: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. In 1970 werd de twintigjarige verstandelijk gehandicapte Howard Stampo veroordeeld voor de moord op zijn grootmoeder Grace Jefferies. De veroordeling was destijds gebaseerd op omstreden bewijs en de later ingetrokken bekentenis van de verdachte. Drie ja…ar later stierf Stamp, tot zelfmoord gedreven door zelfhaat en het getreiter van de andere gevangenen. Maar was Stamp wel schuldig? Dertig jaar later stuit Jonathan Hughes, een antropoloog gespecialiseerd in maatschappelijke Stereotypes, op de zaak. Hij ontdekt alarmerende hiaten in de bewijsvoering en twijfelt er niet aan dat de veroordeling van Stamp het gevolg was van een desastreuze juridische dwaling. Maar hoe ver is Hughes bereid te gaan in zijn zoektocht naar rechtvaardigheid? Om de naam van Stamp te zuiveren zal er immers een andere naam genoemd moeten worden. Is het wel verstandig om het lang vergeten verhaal van een eenzame jonge man op te rakelen? En wat zullen de gevolgen zijn.

Ze bezoekt Olive in de gevangenis en raakt er langzaam maar zeker van overtuigd dat de vrouw onschuldig is. Maar wat heeft haar er dan toe gedreven om zo gemakkelijk schuld te bekennen? Roz besluit de zaak te reconstrueren en komt al doende tot een opmerkelijke conclusie, even afschuwelijk als verrassend.

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Tien uur nadat het lichaam van een vrouw is aangespoeld op een verlaten kust in het zuiden van Engeland, wordt haar drie jaar oude dochtertje dertig kilometer verderop in een dorpje aangetroffen, in de was en alleen. Waarom werd Kate vermoord en mocht h…aar kind - dat waarschijnlijk getuige was van de moord - blijven leven? En vreemder nog, waarom is Kate aan boord van een boot gegaan, terwijl ze altijd een painsche angst had om te verdrinken? Het politieonderzoek concentreert zich op een jonge actuer, een ongehuuwdeman met een obsessieve belangstelling voor pornografie. Deze man liegt over zijn relatie met de vermoorde vrouw en zijn boot ligt niet ver van de plek waar de kleuter is gevonden. Naarmate het onderzoek vordert, verplaatst de verdenking zich in de richting van de echtgenoot van Kate. Klopt zijn alibi eigenlijk wel? En was Kate echt zo keurig als hij beweert? En waarom begint zijn dochtertje te gillen van angst zodra hij haar wil optillen.

Softcover. Condizione: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Vergilbt / ausgeblichen. In prison, they call her the Sculptress for the strange figurines she carves - symbols of the day she hacked her mother and sister to pieces and reassembled them in a blood-drenched jigsaw. Sullen and menacing, Olive Martin is bur…ned-out journalist Rosalind Leigh's only hope of getting a new book published. But as she interviews Olive, in her cell, Roz finds flaws in the Sculptress's confession. Is she really guilty as she insists? Drawn into Olive's world of obsessional lies and love, nothing can stop Roz's pursuit of the chilling, convoluted truth. Not the tidy suburbanites who'd rather forget the murders, not a volatile ex-policeman and her own erotic response to him, not an attack on her life. Not even the thought of what might happen if the Sculptress went free.

Lediglich den auf Druck ihres Verlegers hin besucht die Londoner Journalistin Rosalind Leigh die Inhaftierte Olive Martin auf, die verurteilt wurde, weil sie gestand, Mutter und Sch…wester brutal ermordet zu haben. Bei ihrem Besuch ist die Journalistin mehr und mehr fasziniert von der ,Bildhauerin", die im Zuchthaus fur ihre Tobsuchtsanfalle bekannt ist und auch dafur, dass sie ununterbrochen Figuren knetet und mit langen Nadeln spickt. Da Leigh den Eindruck hat, dass die Inhaftierte, die selbst immer wieder ihre Schuld betont, lugt, stellt sie auf eigene Faust Nachforschungen an und stosst auf so manche Ungereimtheiten, auch im Hinblick auf die Arbeit der Polizei im entsprechenden Fall.
