Book Description
Former Army Ranger Marcus O'Bannion and homicide cop Scarlett Bishop have met only briefly but when Scarlett receives a phone call in the middle of the night, she immediately recognises the hauntingly smooth voice asking her to meet him in one of Cincinnati's roughest areas. On arriving, Scarlett finds the body of a seventeen-year-old Asian girl and Marcus injured. A fierce champion of victims' rights, Marcus claims the young woman was working for an affluent local family and the last time he saw her she was terrified, abused, and clearly in need of help. Having agreed to meet her, both Marcus and the young woman were targeted for death. As they investigate, Scarlett and Marcus are pulled into the dangerous world of human trafficking where they soon realise they are going to have to become as ruthless as those they are hunting. Because if they don't, how many other girls may end up alone in the dark?

Alone in the Dark is a set of simple Solo play rules for Blades in the Dark You Need This Book Because all role-playing is improv and solo rules support that improvisation. Even as a group GM these rules will help when you need to create exciting games with little or no preparation. It uses simple tables to replace the GM with dice rolls and your own improv. skills. What makes these rules unique is that they stay as close as possible to the core Blades mechanics so you don't have to 'stop playing blades' to use the GM Emulator and then have to get back into character. If you have played Blades in the Dark then you can use these rules. If you are familiar with using Fortune rolls then you will instantly recognise and understand the logic behind this supplement. Solo is a perfect way to learn a new game, test your first adventures and going beyond just making characters when you are first getting to know the rules.

Alone in America
Author: Robert A. Ferguson
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674070704
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
Robert A. Ferguson investigates the nature of loneliness in American fiction, from its mythological beginnings in Rip Van Winkle to the postmodern terrors of 9/11. At issue is the dark side of a trumpeted American individualism. The theme is a vital one because a greater percentage of people live alone today than at any other time in U.S. history. The many isolated characters in American fiction, Ferguson says, appeal to us through inward claims of identity when pitted against the social priorities of a consensual culture. They indicate how we might talk to ourselves when the same pressures come our way. In fiction, more visibly than in life, defining moments turn on the clarity of an inner conversation. Alone in America tests the inner conversations that work and sometimes fail. It examines the typical elements and moments that force us toward a solitary state—failure, betrayal, change, defeat, breakdown, fear, difference, age, and loss—in their ascending power over us. It underlines the evolving answers that famous figures in literature have given in response. Figures like Mark Twain’s Huck Finn and Toni Morrison’s Sethe and Paul D., or Louisa May Alcott’s Jo March and Marilynne Robinson’s John Ames, carve out their own possibilities against ruthless situations that hold them in place. Instead of trusting to often superficial social remedies, or taking thin sustenance from the philosophy of self-reliance, Ferguson says we can learn from our fiction how to live alone.

The hardest part of writing is that I become so engrossed in the story I'm trying to tell that I let my beer get warm and go flat. I can't even begin to count all of the beer I've wasted. I've got to develop a type - type - type - swig - type - type - type - swig writing technique. In the meantime here's what I've warmed my beer over during the past five years.
