Book Description
Book Description for Web Page Corey Wheelock, her best friend Chris, and her adopted two year old son Danny are enjoying a lakeside camping weekend when Danny is kidnapped. Tense days of searching follow; when no ransom note arrives, Corey tries not to fear the unthinkable. But when a handsome private investigator comes to her home with questions about the Christmas night a new-born baby appeared on her doorstep, a new fear is added. Danny is alive and well, but an unknown someone has received a ransom demand for his grandson. Earl and Yolanda, dangerously incompetent criminals, are not becoming rich and happy as easily as they had hoped. They blunder, they get both careless and unlucky, and almost inevitably their kidnap venture leads to two deaths. A fortune teller/psychic and her slightly retarded brother accidentally become a factor in Dannys safety, and Tommy Logan, the private investigator, suddenly finds his work has become far more exciting than his usual dull routine chores.

A woman commits suicide for no apparent reason. A week later, her son– fifteen-year-old Mark Underhill–vanishes. His uncle, novelist Timothy Underhill, searches his hometown of Millhaven for clues that might help unravel this horrible dual mystery.

National Estimates of Children Missing Involuntarily Or for Benign Reasons
Author: Second National Incidence Studies of Missing, Abducted, Runaway, and Thrownaway Children (U.S.)
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Electronic government information
Languages : en
Pages : 16
Book Description
This Bulletin provides information on the numbers and characteristics of two groups of children not frequently recognized in the literature on missing children: those involuntarily missing because they were lost, injured, or stranded and those missing for benign reasons. The estimates reported in this Bulletin are derived from two components of the Second National Incidence Studies of Missing, Abducted, Runaway, and Thrownaway Children (NISMART-2): the National Household Survey of Adult Caretakers and the National Household Survey of Youth. These surveys were conducted during 1999 and reflect the experiences of children in the United States over a 12-month period. Because the vast majority of cases were concentrated in 1999, the annual period the Bulletin refers to is 1999.

Author: Stanley Gardner
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 1472510135
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
This major work of historical and interpretative scholarship draws upon fresh evidence to set the Songs in a new perspective. Blake's etchings are substantially discussed alongside the poems they illustrate. The plates of both Innocence and Experience are considered in detail as Blake's response to social circumstances between 1782 and 1794. The reader is asked to re-think the nature of 'the Two Contrary States', and the relationship of the designs to the understanding of Blake.
