The Girl In Cell A

Sie nennen ihn den Polaroid-Killer. Wenn sie die Überreste seiner Opfer finden, stecken die Fotos in ihren Mündern. Ihren Augenhöhlen. Tief in ihren Eingeweiden. Ein Sadismus, der über den Tod hinausgeht.
Noch bevor die Mordserie beginnt, stoßen Student Luca und seine Mitbewohnerin Maja online auf verstörende Videos eines Tierquälers. Fest entschlossen, dem Uploader das Handwerk zu legen, schließen sie sich einer Gruppe von Internet-Hobbydetektiven an. Schon bald sind sie sicher, dass die menschliche Bestie zu größerer Beute übergegangen ist und mittlerweile als Polaroid-Killer auf Menschenjagd geht. Aber als sie zu tief graben, fallen sie in ein blutgetränktes Rabbithole. Was sie am tiefsten Punkt entdecken, übersteigt jegliche Vorstellungskraft.

Scam World

Dr. Morton-Grusel-Krimi-Bestseller

Achtung: EMPFOHLEN AB 16 JAHREN!

Dr. Morton - Arzt oder Mörder? Wissenschaftler oder Verbrecher? Nobelpreisverdächtiger Wohltäter oder finsterer Dämon? Wie Dr. Jekyll und Mr. Hyde ist Glenn Morton sich seiner Zwiespältigkeit bewusst. Er suche nicht nach Vorwänden oder Entschuldigungen für seine Experimente an lebenden Menschen - und nur die Betroffenen haben Gelegenheit, ihr Schicksal zu beklagen. Er richtet die, die glaubten, durch die Maschen der Justiz geschlüpft und in Sicherheit zu sein. Dr. Glenn Morton, Mitglied des Königlichen Kollegiums der Chirurgen, ist ein Monster, ein Mensch außerhalb aller Maßstäbe. Und William Grimsby ist seine notwendige Ergänzung. Der geniale Techniker liefert Morton alle Hilfsmittel zum Forschen wie zum Morden. Zweifellos ist Grimsby Dr. Mortons Geschöpf. Aber ebenso zweifelsfrei wäre Morton ohne Grimsbys Hilfe nicht das, was er ist. Sie sind aufeinander angewiesen. Sie ergänzen sich ideal. Nur eines fällt aus diesem Rahmen: Dass Grimsby auch noch seine eigenen geheimnisvollen Wege geht ...

Dr. Morton Nr. 128: Tod als Handelsware

Palgrave Studies in Prisons and Penology

This book examines the role of the prison in the commissioning and delivery of theatre practice. It draws attention to discourses of publicly acceptable arts and other mechanisms of ‘soft power’ which shape access to prison theatre. Each chapter utilises engaging storytelling methods based on the authors own experience as a prison theatre practitioner to illustrate theory. The book explores understandings of the value of arts in prison and discuss how, in a neoliberal society, people in prison can be conceptualised as ‘deserving’ or ‘undeserving’ of these practices. It examines the role of the arts organisation in designing and delivering commissionable arts practice and in caring for both practitioners and participants. It also discusses the role of the university and the facilitator in delivering work that balances the often-conflicting agendas of the prison, the arts organisation and the participants alongside their own aims within a context of precarious employment. Finally, it examines the experience of participating in prison theatre, exploring incidents of care, interdependency and collective joy within the prison and assessing how, through the delivery of short-term and insecurely funded arts projects, prison theatre can produce experiences of both hope and harm.

Stories of Care, Control, and Resistance

Prison Theatre and the Politics of Hope

Warum gilt die Anrede 'Du Opfer!' als Beleidigung? Warum lehnen viele Betroffene sexualisierter Gewalt die Bezeichnung als ¿Opfer¿ für sich selbst ab, während gleichzeitig der Hype um True Crime und Dark Romance immer weiter zunimmt? Die Autorin - Rechtsanwältin und selbst Opfer sexualisierter Gewalt - zeigt auf, wie die Anerkennung der Opferrolle Heilung und gesellschaftlichen Wandel bewirken kann.

In ihrem Buch untersucht Svea Frey die Stigmatisierung und Verdrehung der Opferrolle in der medialen Wahrnehmung, in Kunst, Film und Literatur. Einen besonderen Fokus legt sie dabei auf den aktuellen Hype um True Crime und Dark Romance.

Die Autorin geht der Frage nach, welche Mechanismen die Vergewaltigungsmythen in diesen Genres begünstigen und um die damit verbundenen Geschehnisse eine Aura der Faszination weben - während gleichzeitig der juristisch eindeutige Begriff des ¿Opfers¿ gesellschaftlich so stark negativ konnotiert ist, dass Betroffene ihn immer häufiger für sich ablehnen.

Mit ihrer tiefgreifenden Analyse der gesellschaftlichen und juristischen Aspekte der Opferrolle und ihrer öffentlichen Wahrnehmung gelingt es Svea Frey, ein tieferes Verständnis für die hinter dem Opferbegriff stehenden Dynamiken zu vermitteln. Ihr Buch ist aber auch ein Plädoyer und feministischer Appell: Die Anerkennung der Opferrolle ist kein Zeichen von Schwäche, sondern ein Akt der politischen Selbstermächtigung, der zur Heilung der Betroffenen sowie zu einem gesellschaftlichen Wandel beitragen kann.

Rape Culture, Victim Blaming und der Hype um Dark Romance

Wo kein Opfer, da kein Täter

America's Hometown has a dark side.
And the truth has been hidden in plain sight.

Hannibal, Missouri, is known around the world as the boyhood home of Mark Twain, a picturesque river town celebrated for its charm, history, and sense of American innocence. But beneath the postcards, museums, and storybook streets lies a far more unsettling legacy.

True Crime in America's Hometown uncovers the real crimes that shaped Hannibal in silence: brutal murders, unexplained deaths, disappearances that haunted families for generations, and scandals quietly erased from public memory. These are not legends or ghost stories. They are documented cases drawn from court records, newspaper archives, police reports, and firsthand accounts-many of which have never been fully examined until now.

From crimes that shocked the community to cases that were never solved, this book exposes how violence, deception, and injustice found their way into one of America's most beloved towns. Each chapter pulls the reader deeper into the shadows, revealing how tightly a community can hold its secrets, and what happens when the truth finally surfaces.

Written with the pace of modern true crime and the depth of historical investigation, True Crime in America's Hometown challenges the idea that evil only exists elsewhere. It proves that even the most charming places can harbor darkness-and that sometimes the most disturbing crimes are the ones closest to home.
Once you know these stories, you'll never see Hannibal the same way again.

Palgrave Studies in Victims and Victimology

This book tackles the widespread problem of Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV) in Nigerian tertiary institutions through a proactive, stakeholder-collaborated intervention that connects research, policy, and practice. Drawing on a national study called Acting Together, this book intentionally closes the gap from diagnosis to durable systems change. The project used a sequential mixed-methods design that involved large-scale quantitative surveying followed by focus group discussions, key informant interviews, and in-depth Interviews to anchor statistical trends in lived experience and institutional narratives. Unlike similar projects that focus on prevalence statistics and isolated interventions, this project foregrounds the systemic drivers of SGBV, ranging from personal, structural, and environmental factors, and then translates findings into multi-level actions. By engaging students, management, academic and non-academic staff, regulatory bodies, law enforcement, civil society, and community actors, the project demonstrates how coordinated stakeholder synergy amplifies impact. It further documents patterns of perpetration, institutional responses, and survivors’ pathways to care, enabling interventions that address how SGBV is experienced on campuses.Oluyemisi Oluremi Obilade

Palgrave Socio-Legal Studies

This book is the final research outcome of a two-year interdisciplinary research project which explores the areas of Human Rights, Discourse and Law, and Gender and Sexuality. It analyses the discursive constructions in case law related to sexual, reproductive, and parental rights in selected international and European Courts, including the European Court of Human Rights, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, and the Court of Justice of the European Union, through a legal-linguistic interdisciplinary approach.This book explores the impact of PSB (prejudices, stereotypes, and bias) in human rights judicial discourse as well as anti-PSB strategies adopted by the selected courts. Through a mixed methodology, involving corpus-based analyses, linguists and legal experts investigate key topics in the areas of parenthood, sexuality, and reproduction, including abortion, surrogacy, health-related issues, and sexual violence. Ultimately, this book aims to respond to questions including: can PSB be traced in how judges express their decisions about sexual, reproductive and parental rights involving people sharing a specific gender, sexual orientation, or gender&nbsp;identity? If so, what is the impact and how can we eradicate PSB in discourse and protect against gender- and LGBTIQ+-based PSB, especially in the access to sexual, reproductive, and parental rights?Gianluca Pontrandolfo is Associate Professor of Spanish Language, Translation and Linguistics at&nbsp;University of Trieste, Italy.Carmelo Danisi is Associate Professor of Public International Law at Alma Mater Studiorum - University of Bologna, Italy.

LA ANTOLOGÍA DEFINITIVA VEINTICINCO AÑOS DEL MEJOR PERIODISMO DE LEILA GUERRIERO Una edición ampliada y revisada con los textos imprescindibles de la gran cronista en lengua española y autora de La llamada, libro del año en Babelia. &gt;Veinticinco años han pasado desde la crónica más temprana de todas las que contiene esta antología del mejor periodismo de Leila Guerriero: un cuarto de siglo con los textos imprescindibles de la gran cronista en lengua española, quien ha revisado y ampliado este libro para la ocasión. Frutos extraños es una lección magistral de escritura en la que la autora nos descubre la cara más sensible, vigorosa y palpitante de su oficio. Aquí encontramos muchas de sus crónicas célebres: la historia de una mujer capaz de asesinar a tres amigas con cianuro, la de otra que mató a su hija minutos después de parirla o la de un mago manco. El volumen incluye también algunas de sus brillantes reflexiones sobre el acto de escribir e incorpora perfiles de figuras como Ricardo Darín o María Kodama, además de relatos de episodios históricos recientes que sin duda marcarán una época, como las últimas elecciones presidenciales en Argentina. Este compendio confirma a Leila Guerriero como la gran defensora de que no hay nada «más sexy, feroz, desopilante, ambiguo, tétrico o hermoso que la realidad'. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION THE DEFINITIVE ANTHOLOGY: TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF LEILA GUERRIERO'S FINEST JOURNALISM An expanded and revised edition featuring the essential texts of the foremost Spanish-language chronicler and author of The Call, named Book of the Year by Babelia. &gt;Twenty-five years have passed since the earliest chronicle included in this anthology of Leila Guerriero's best journalism: a quarter century of essential texts by the leading Spanish-language chronicler, who has revised and expanded this volume for the occasion. Strange Fruits is a master class in writing in which the author reveals the most sensitive, vigorous, and vibrant side of her craft. Here we find many of her celebrated chronicles: the story of a woman capable of murdering three friends with cyanide; another who killed her daughter minutes after giving birth; and that of a one-armed magician. The volume also includes some of her brilliant reflections on the act of writing and incorporates profiles of figures such as Ricardo Darín and María Kodama, as well as accounts of recent historical events that will undoubtedly define an era, such as Argentina's most recent presidential elections. This compendium confirms Leila Guerriero as the foremost champion of the idea that there is nothing "sexier, fiercer, more outrageous, more ambiguous, more terrifying, or more beautiful than reality."
