Böcker av Kevin Sullivan

This wonderful book introduces children to the story of evolution and explains how humans are related to absolutely every living thing that exists today. Using beautifully bright illustrations and breaking it down into bitesize text, this is the perfect book to deliver the big idea that life only started once on this planet, and every living thing comes from those early bacteria. Sometimes the best insights come from asking the right questions. This story is the story of a girl asking her father "why don't we have tails". From this seemingly simple question comes forth a discussion between father and daughter with the father answering the question only to spur new questions. Back and forth they go, and as they go, they unpack how humans are related to every living organism. In doing so they discuss the importance of taking care of our earth since after all, we are related to all of the animals, bugs, plants and bacteria out there and therefore we are all family.

The renowned Ted Bundy expert reveals never-before-published information on little known aspects of the serial killer's crimes and victims.Due to Kevin Sullivan's extensive writing about Ted Bundy (which has produced six books), he's become a sort of magnet over the years, drawing out many people who were part of the Bundy story, but have otherwise kept a low profile over the decades; and these first-person contacts continue to this day. As such, this is the first book in a new series of books, whose aim is to bring new revelations to the public about Bundy, the victims, the murders, and the almost murders that failed Bundy for one reason or another. "e;With all the material we have on Ted Bundy, it's easy to think we've thoroughly covered his life and crimes. But there still are holes, still things to learn . . . Newly discovered facts, some speculation, and some clarification-they're all here. For those who can't get enough of Bundy, the items in this illuminating volume show that we can still chip away at his secrets."e; -Katherine Ramsland, author of Confession of a Serial Killer: The Untold Story of Dennis Rader, the BTK Killer

A compelling and masterful account, based on fresh reporting, of the investigation, impeachment, and acquittal of President Donald Trump, a ferocious political drama that challenged American democracy itself.In the spring of 2019, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi did not favor pursuing Trump's impeachment. Her view was: ';He's just not worth it.' But by September, after a whistleblower complaint suggesting that Trump had used his office for his political benefit, Pelosi decided to risk it. The impeachment inquiry led to charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, a gamble that ultimately meant Trump would be the first impeached president on the ballot in US history. Pulitzer Prizewinning Washington Post reporters Kevin Sullivan and Mary Jordan have crafted a powerful, intimate narrative that concentrates on the characters as well as the dramatic events, braiding them together to provide a remarkable understanding of what happened and why. Drawing on the deep reporting of Post journalists as well as new interviews, Sullivan and Jordan deliver a crisp page-turner with exquisite detail and scenes. They put readers in the room for both sides of the now-famous phone call between Trump and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky on July 25, 2019, revealing the in-the-moment reactions of those listening to the call in Washington, as well as the tension in Kyiv, as aides passed notes to Zelensky while he was talking to Trump. Sullivan and Jordan deftly illuminate the aims and calculations of key figures. Pelosi's evolution from no to yes. Trump's mounting fury as ';the I-word' became inevitable. Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell firmly telling Trump on the phone about the Senate trial: You need to trust me. Trump on Trial teems with unexpected moments. House member Elissa Slotkin, a Michigan Democrat, alone at the National Archives, walking amid the nation's founding documents, weighing her vote on impeachment. Fiery Republican congressman Matt Gaetz of Florida, a favorite Trump warrior, deciding to lead the storming of the secure room in the US Capitol basement, where witnesses were testifying. The authors paint vivid portraits of the men and women branded by the president's supporters as foes from the ';deep state': Ukraine experts Fiona Hill and Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman; ambassadors Marie Yovanovitch and William Taylor. The narrative spools out amid Trump's nonstop tweeting and the infinite echo chamber of social media, which amplified both parties' messages in ways unknown during past impeachments. Sullivan and Jordan, aided by editor Steve Luxenberg, follow the story into the aftermath of Trump's acquittal and the president's payback for those whom he believed had betrayed him. The retributions took place as the nation reeled from a devastating pandemic and widespread protests about racial injustice, with another trial looming: the 2020 election.

1898, Glasgow. A man is found stabbed to death but the police are struggling to grasp any leads. Can Juan Cameron, photographer-cum-sleuth, bring to light what the eye may overlook?

1898. When Juan's photographer father is killed whilst working in Cuba, his last photos reveal that the death was no accident. Juan returns to his family in Scotland, but when his own interest in photography helps the police solve a crime, suddenly he is involved in the hunt for a serial killer.

The Trail of Ted Bundy: Digging Up the Untold Stories, is a journey back in time, to a world when Ted Bundy was killing young women and girls in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. It's told by those who knew him, and you'll hear their revealing stories; many of them coming to light for the first time. The friends of the victims are here as well, and they share their insights about the victims, as well as their own personal loss, and some of what they reveal in this book was originally withheld from the investigators during those years, such was their commitment to their deceased friends. It's also the story of those who hunted Bundy during an extraordinarily difficult and long investigation, as well as the stories of those who guarded him. Others, whose lives were altered forever because of their association in this infamous case, have their place in this book as well. The Trail of Ted Bundy also offers fresh information from the official case files in areas not covered in the author's first book, The Bundy Murders: A Comprehensive History. Covering these things in what was an in-depth biography of the killer, with a moment-by-moment look at the murders, wouldn't have made any sense at that time, yet they make perfect sense here. And finally, for this book, Sullivan travelled to every state where Bundy operated and offers the reader vivid descriptions of how all of these locations look today.

?Essential to all students of Joyce's life and works. Research at Clongowes Wood, Belvedere and University Colleges has produced much new and valuable material which has been carefully interpreted with reference to Joyce's books. The differences Mr. Sullivan points out between Joyce's actual life and the life of Stephen Dedalus in A Portrait and Stephen Hero, particularly, should settle the question of autobiographical content of these books for all time. Highly recommended for all literary collections.?-Library Journal
