Hardback. Condizione: Good. In a mythic Scotland, two unlikely heroes must make a dangerous journey to save their people.Agatha is a Hawk, brave and fierce, who protects her people by patrolling the high walls of their island home. She is proud of her job, though some in her clan whisper that it is meant to keep her out of the way because of the condition she was born with. Jaime, thoughtful and anxious, is an Angler, but he hates the sea. Worse, he's been chosen for a duty that the clan hasn't required for generations: to marry. The elders won't say why they have promised him to a girl in a neighboring clan, but there are rumors of approaching danger.

Hardback. Condizione: Good. In the heart-pounding second book in the Shadow Skye trilogy, unlikely heroes Agatha and Jaime must fight for their clan's home when a new danger comes to the Isle of Skye. After their escape from Norveg, Agatha and Jaime return with their clan to the Isle of Skye to find that their enclave is now in the hands of the treacherous people of Raasay. They find tenuous shelter with another clan, but disaster soon strikes when the terrifying shadow creatures known as sgàilean escape their magical prison and wreak havoc across the island. Now Agatha and Jaime must call on old and new allies to fight this threat. In the meantime, a ship from Norveg sails for the court of King Edmund of Ingland, where a dangerous alliance is forming, and Sigrid, a girl with an extraordinary memory, works to free herself from the clutches of a cruel king. All three protagonists must summon their particular powers to save the island from the horde of dark creatures and foil the plans of two vengeful monarchs. Kirkus Reviews called The Good Hawk "a page-turning adventure" and Agatha an "original protagonist." This second book in the Shadow Skye trilogy continues to expand the definition of hero as its neurodiverse heroine tackles ever greater challenges in a thrilling middle act to the battle over the fate of Scotia.…

Hardback. Condizione: Good. In this thought-provoking account, Clive Grace persuasively argues that the operation of UK child care law cannot be properly understood without consideration of the ways in which social workers use law in their day to day dealings with children and their families. As this book highlights, social workers often interpret their legal powers and obligations in ways which do not resemble the law as it is framed in statute--often due to their ignorance of even the most basic obligations created by law. Based on extensive empirical research involving over 180 case studies, Grace examines how social workers are hampered by a lack of policy direction at the departmental level, and offers a number of realistic and constructive suggestions for remedying this deficiency. It will be required reading for all scholars, lawyers and professionals involved in the law as it relates to the protection of children.…
