"The shocking true-crime story of a U.S. Border Patrol agent turned serial killer, the four sex workers whom he mercilessly killed, and the upended border town of Laredo where his heinous crimes occurred."--

“A thrilling ticktock on the borderland slayings and the effort to solve them."—Texas Monthly&nbsp;The shocking true-crime story of a U.S. Border Patrol agent turned serial killer, the four sex workers whom he mercilessly killed, and the upended border town of Laredo where his heinous crimes occurred.Twelve days is all it took.Melissa Ramirez, Claudine Anne Luera, Guiselda Hernandez, and Janelle Ortiz were four marginalized women striving to make ends meet as sex workers. They looked out for one another. But they would soon share a connection that none of them could have imagined. When Melissa was found dead, the other three women were on edge but assumed they were safe. Twelve days later, they too were dead and police had detained an unlikely suspect—Juan David Ortiz, a ten-year veteran of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection, where he carried a badge, a service revolver, and was entrusted to protect the community in which he eventually killed. From September 3 through September 15, 2018, Ortiz, a husband and doting father to three children, lured his victims into his white Dodge truck and drove them to the outskirts of town where he violently executed them, leaving them dead or dying on the sides of dark, rural roads.In this fast-paced, electrifying tick-tock, Pulitzer Prize–winning USA TODAY journalist Rick Jervis tells the gripping story of the four murders that shook the small border town of Laredo, and the quest to unmask a cold, calculated killer who was hiding in plain sight.&nbsp;The Devil Behind the Badge&nbsp;is also a deeply human portrait of the four lives lost and an attempt to uncover what motivated Ortiz’s descent into darkness. Along the way, it raises serious questions about the border crisis, the abuse of law enforcement, and the challenges of a federal agency to police its own ranks.

A brand new Dr. David Hunter novel from international bestseller Simon Beckett

*THE BRAND NEW DR DAVID HUNTER NOVEL - the David Hunter television series THE CHEMISTRY OF DEATH debuts on Paramount+ on 19 Jan 23 * "The dead didn't frighten me. It was the living that gave me nightmares." An atmospheric and utterly gripping mystery set in the shadows of the Welsh mountains, that will chill the reader to their very bones Driving back through Wales in a fierce winter storm, forensic anthropologist David Hunter is forced to seek shelter at a remote village in the Eryri mountains. But a one-night stop-over becomes something very different after a gruesome discovery in depths of the local forest. With communications down and the only road washed out by the storm, Hunter is unsure who - if anyone - he can trust. And as long-buried secrets begin to emerge, he's knows that, whatever dark past the isolated community might be hiding, there's no one he can call on for help. This time he's on his own. Forensic anthropologist David Hunter is back in this pulse-pounding thriller that explores the wildness and danger of rural life and the intensity of small-town claustrophobia.

The Bone Garden

Politics, Culture and Society in Early Modern Britain

Sexual Politics in Revolutionary England

Visual Cultures and German Contexts

In what ways can erotica chart the story of a nation in transition? What can it reveal about the discontinuities-and uncomfortable parallels-between the periods of political and economic turmoil that characterize modern German history? The rapid modernization of the German Empire in 1871 led to large-scale transformations in the cultural, social, and political spheres. Exploring a rich diversity of erotic visual art-from paintings and photographs, to postcard and graphic folios-this volume reveals the impact of these changes on the erotic interests of the nation. Exploring various forms of artistic production, reception, and circulation, Erotic Art in Modern Germany argues for the cultural value of erotica in modern Germany. It presents work by both highly regarded and lesser-known artists and explores themes such as legal cultures and the impact of censorship, sexuality and sexual reform, and changing political frameworks, from imperialism to fascism. 10 chapters explore diverse topics, from philological and ethnographic approaches to erotic art, to scientific developments, gender and sexuality. With its holistic, cross-disciplinary approach-drawing from the fields of anthropology, film theory, Marxism, feminism, and trans- and queer theories-the book complicates simplistic understandings of 'modern' erotica and powerfully underlines its enduring significance as a site of dissent and experimentation.

The Beatles, the Beach Boys, and the Invention of the Sixties —or, No Sense Makes Sense

The Musical Lives of Charles Manson

Analyzes the relationship between Charles Manson, music, and 1960's counterculture.

The book will be a work of non-fiction examining the intersections of sex work, power, violence and feminism, building on an article the author wrote for n+1 on these same topics. It will examine and debunk prevalent myths of what commercial sex is and isn't; reveal sex workers not as hostages of the patriarchy, but as leaders of feminist movements; strip away the commonly accepted pillars of conversation around sex work to ask whether it's useful to frame 'sex work' as 'work' at all; and use international examples from the US, UK and elsewhere to build a picture of the current state of legislation and possible futures.

Care of the Sexual Self

'Courageous, moving, bold and beautifully, brilliantly written.' - Daisy Buchanan I am 13 years old and these are my secrets. 1. I have a crush on Jet from ITV gameshow Gladiators. So strong! So pretty! 2. I still play with Barbie dolls. It's mostly making them scissor. Or snog. Or lie on top of each other with feeling. 3. I just kissed my best friend. Spoiler alert: she's a girl. From the suburbs of Leeds to the streets of Sydney, from the queer clubs of London to a quiet life by the sea, through love, family, friendship and heartache, join Roxy Bourdillon on a journey to work out exactly who she is. What a Girl Wants is the perfect read for anyone who's searched for their place in the world, for anyone who's ever been catcalled, anyone who's despaired about their body, fallen in love, had their heart broken and found friends who can put it back together. From overcoming shame and finding your tribe, to surviving the dating scene and learning to really express yourself, this is a book about joy, empowerment and freedom. It's a laugh-out-loud treat of a read for fans of Dolly Alderton's Everything I Know About Love and Caitlin Moran's How to Be a Woman - but with a glorious queer twist.
