Book Description
The quiet city of Biloxi is hit by a series of deaths; every death has a convincing explanation, a suspect, a motive. Sheriff Logan is in charge of solving these cases, but, with his alcoholism and other addictions, he moves further and further from the truth. One of his assistants, Johnny, whom he considers a simple novice, is the only one who sees more than meets the eye. He starts the investigation with the origin of the problem, which dates back several decades... A boy suffers endless torment, the victim of ruthless bullying at school. He is on the brink of the abyss, but his life changes when he meets his grandfather Jerry, the notorious murderer in the county. He has just been released from prison to spend his last months with his family before cancer takes him. He breathes a thread of hope into his grandson and convinces him to take revenge on his obnoxious classmates. It won't happen today, or tomorrow, but when a long time has passed and he is free from all suspicion. It needs to be done this way to avoid being caught.

Book Description
Between 1944 and 1996, Guatemala experienced a revolution, counterrevolution, and civil war. Playing a pivotal role within these national shifts were students from Guatemala’s only public university, the University of San Carlos (USAC). USAC students served in, advised, protested, and were later persecuted by the government, all while crafting a powerful student nationalism. In no other moment in Guatemalan history has the relationship between the university and the state been so mutable, yet so mutually formative. By showing how the very notion of the middle class in Guatemala emerged from these student movements, this book places an often-marginalized region and period at the center of histories of class, protest, and youth movements and provides an entirely new way to think about the role of universities and student bodies in the formation of liberal democracy throughout Latin America.
