A young woman from the Midwest with an angelic voice and deep roots that just needed a place to be planted. This is their story.

But what happens when one of them is forced to return to being a regular detective? That’s what happens when Harry Stallard is seriously injured in an undercover operation and posted back to force. Unfit for frontline duties, he is sent to recuperate in the Cold Case Review Unit, where his ponytail, tattoos and attitude clash with the sedate, ultra-mature vibe. His first case: missing person Joey Doane, who was lead singer with local band The Magic Rats, and whose truck was found abandoned near the Humber Bridge. The original investigation was filed as a probable suicide, but did Joey really jump to his death or has he staged his own disappearance? Stallard becomes convinced he’s dealing with something far more sinister, but who would want to kill Joey and why? Dive into Sheffield’s vibrant music scene, where indie rock bands play in colourful, sweat-soaked clubs, and beneath the surface, lurks a murky world of corrupt business, pseudo-gangsters and chaotic drug-use.

"Fiction est un mot perilleux, tout comme son correlatif, science" ecrivait Michel de Certeau. Et pourtant, si l'epistemologie a montre que les verites scientifiques s'inscrivent dans une historicite, elle n'en a pas fait de meme pour la fiction qui est longtemps restee indemne de tout relativisme: "elle est le non-reel", a-t-on souvent admis. C'est ce principe que l'auteur remet en question en montrant que la fiction est, elle aussi, un objet culturel. A ce titre elle varie non seulement historiquement, mais aussi en fonction du cadre conceptuel de son apprehension. La demonstration s'appuie sur l'etude d'un corpus narratif du XVIIe siecle: les histoires, souvent tragiques et sanglantes, de l'eveque Jean-Pierre Camus.

Most science chronicles present a triumphant march through time, with revolutionary thinkers and their discoveries following in orderly progression. The truth, however, is somewhat different. Scientific Feuds is a collection of the most vicious battles among the greatest minds of our time. It features such contests as Huxley and Wilberforce's debate on Darwin's theory of evolution, Franklin and Wilkins' fight over the discovery of DNA, and the War of Currents between Tesla and Edison (which ended with Edison electrocuting dogs and horses in a vain attempt to discredit Tesla's work). From passionate competition to vindictive sniping, these rivalries prove that the world of science is far from cold and methodical.
