Headline Feature, 2001. Paperback. Very Good. LA homicide detective Peter Decker and Rina Lazarus, his Orthodox Jewish wi fe, return in The Forgotten, a new entry in Faye Kellerman's popular series . Kellerman can be counted on to deliver emotional complexity along with su spense, and it comes from the relationship between Peter and Jacob, Rina's troubled teenage son. Jacob has a personal connection to the event that set s off this intricately plotted novel, the defacing of Rina's synagogue by o ne of his classmates. Ernesto Golding can't explain why he vandalised the s ynagogue, but when he and his therapists are murdered months after the inci dent, Peter realises that something the teenager told him when admitting hi s guilt may hold the key to the killings: Ernesto's belief that his grandfa ther may have been a Nazi who posed as a Jew to escape to South America aft er the war. Investigating Ernesto's story gives Rina a strand of the plot t o tease out; meanwhile, Peter concentrates on another motive for the therap ist murders that involves computer fraud, the College Board exams and the h igh cost exacted by parents who pressure their teenagers to succeed., Headline Feature, 2001, Riverhead Trade.

Very light wear to cover, price sticker on rear. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 208 pages; Debbie Ford believes that we each hold within us a trace of every human characteristic that exists, the capacity for every human emotion. We are born with the ability to express this entire spectrum of characteristics. But, Ford points out, our families and our society send us strong messages about which ones are good and bad. So when certain impulses arise, we deny them instead of confronting them, giving them a healthy voice, then letting them go. It is to these feelings that Ford turns our attention, these parts of our selves that don't fit the personae we have created for the rest of the world. She shows us the effects of living in the dark, of keeping all our supposedly unsavory impulses under wraps. We find ourselves disproportionately frustrated and angry at the selfishness of friends, the laziness of colleagues, the arrogance of siblings. When we are unable to reconcile similar impulses in ourselves, Ford explains, we waste our own energy judging others instead of empathizing. But most important, we deny ourselves the power and freedom of living authentically. Through the stories and exercises in The Dark Side of the Light Chasers, Debbie Ford shows us not only how to recognize our hidden emotions, but also how to find the gifts they offer us. The very impulses we most fear may be the key to what is lacking in our lives. [185-osl] ., Riverhead Trade, 1999, Harcourt College Pub. Hardcover. 0155080563 Very Good Condition.
