'This book has bestseller written all over it. I had to remind myself to breathe' NetGalley reviewer¿¿¿¿¿-----------------------There's no smoke without fire...As someone who has suffered abuse at the hands of men, Maddie protects women by murdering those who attack them - men she calls 'fleas'. Fleas are men who follow women home. Abusive husbands who refuse to walk away. And then there's the Manchester Maniac: a serial killer stalking the streets, determined to murder people like her.But Maddie can't get away with it forever. Years later, in the interview room of her prison, she comes face-to-face with a very important visitor. Someone she's going to tell all to, about how she caught one of the UK's most prolific serial killers, and how she got caught as one herself...This emotional and chilling thriller in the vein of Promising Young Womanis perfect for fans of Alice Feeney, Helen Fields and Jo Callaghan.'Raw, dark and utterly gripping. It's hard to believe that this is a debut novel' NetGalley reviewer ¿¿¿¿¿'One of the best books I've read in quite some time' NetGalley reviewer ¿¿¿¿¿Authors love Antonia Grave!'A nuanced tragedy as well as an exciting crime fiction' - MARIE TIERNEY, author of Deadly Animals'Thrilling and moving. A must read!' - JANE RENSHAW,author of The Stepson'Utterly enthralling' - FRANCES CRAWFORD, author of A Bad, Bad Place'Remarkable' - ALISON BELSHAM, author of The Girls on Chalk Hill'Exceptionally gripping and suspenseful' - JULIE LANCASTER, author of Remember Where You've Buried the Bodies'A firecracker of a novel.

Improved usage of forensic science evidence by legal practitioners is essential to reduce miscarriages of justice. This book presents critical insights into contemporary issues of forensic proof from a broad perspective. Using DNA and fingerprint evidence, the authors compare and contrast the science of forensics and how it is communicated to judges, juries, and counsel. With authors from Australia, the UK, and the U.S., the book also addresses how these different countries address science in the courtroom. This resource is ideal for all those who work in forensic capacities, including those scientists who increasingly are called to testify abroad.

Key Ideas in Criminology

Prevention curtails freedom: cancer prevention entails not smoking; accident prevention entails putting pills in childproof containers; crime prevention entails not stealing things and hitting people. Prevention is usually seen as quite unexciting. Preventive medicine is less dramatic than surgery, crime prevention than detection. However, people doing less of one thing are free to do more of another: obesity prevention makes exercise possible and crime prevention frees up time, money and energy to invest elsewhere. This book seeks to enliven the topic of crime prevention by looking at pro-social behaviour alongside crime, to think of improving the quality of life by both deflecting people from the experience of crime – either as perpetrators, victims, or worried bystanders – and nudging them towards collaborative and altruistic behaviour; by changing things, places and people in ways which push people from crime and pull them towards active citizenship. Research and practice is reviewed taking this wider view of crime prevention.

This timely study offers a concise, yet thorough, introduction to the illicit arms trade. The main theme of the book confronts the complex reality, that while it is proper to think of two separate trades in arms--legal and illegal--in practice there is a considerable overlap between the two. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources, Phythian argues that the lessons of the most important and extensive cases of the last 20 years suggest that a significant element of the illicit trade in arms has in fact been sanctioned at some level of government in the pursuit of broader security or geopolitical ends.

Offering a concise, yet thorough, introduction to the illicit arms trade, the main theme of this significant volume confronts the complex reality that while it is proper to think of two separate trades in arms, legal and illegal, in practice there is a considerable overlap between the two. Although this overlap is sometimes distinguished by referring to 'black' (wholly illegal) and 'grey' (semi-legal) markets, this book situates all of these transactions along a continuum under the banner of the 'illicit arms trade'. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources, Mark Phythian argues that the lessons of the most important and extensive cases of the last fifteen to twenty years suggest that a significant element of the illicit trade in arms has in fact been sanctioned at some level of government, in the pursuit of broader security or geopolitical ends.

The 1970s was a pivotal era for crime and criminal justice films in the United States. Many films produced during this period provocatively captured the tumultuous spirit of the era, while also shaping cinematic representations in the decades that followed. This edited volumeoffers a captivating exploration of the intricate connections between these films and the administration and social perceptions and attitudes toward justice, marginalized individuals, and the complexities of the criminal justice system.

Using an aesthetic culture and techniques termed as jihadi cool, terrorist groups have been able to recruit members from around the world, so how do we begin to respond? This book analyzes the rhetorical and ethical dynamics of a culture of jihadi cool/chic, and why these rhetorical and aesthetic techniques have been such a powerful recruitment force for particular transnational terrorist groups. The author uses an evidence-based approach, with frameworks derived from law, politics, philosophy, rhetoric, feminist theory, and communication studies, to examine various attempts to construct counter-narratives to the jihadi cool master narrative. The book closes with an examination of how to begin to respond critically and effectively to the lure of jihadi cool.
