Chris CarterSi está pensando en ti…, estás muerto.De uno de los diez autores más vendidos, según el Sunday Times del Reino Unido, llega esta novela llena de acción protagonizada por Robert Hunter. Este psicólogo, especialista en comportamiento criminal y convertido en detective de la policía de Los Ángeles, tiene que moverse a toda velocidad para identificar al asesino más brutal, astuto y escurridizo que haya existido.Tras un extraño accidente en la Wyoming rural, el sheriff de la localidad detiene a un hombre sospechoso de haber asesinado a dos mujeres. Las investigaciones, sin embargo, conducen a descubrimientos mucho más horripilantes: un asesino en serie ha estado secuestrando, torturando y mutilando víctimas por todo el territorio de los Estados Unidos. Y lo ha estado haciendo durante, al menos, veinticinco años.El sospechoso alega que no es más que un peón en un gigantesco laberinto de mentiras y artificios, pero ¿se le puede creer?El caso es llevado de inmediato al FBI, aunque, esta vez, la agencia se ha visto obligada a pedir ayuda del exterior.

Et drab uden fortilfælde.En morder, der er mere blodtørstig end nogensinde før.En sag, der vil presse ham til det yderste.Har Robert Hunter mødt sin overmand denne gang?”Tror du på djævelen, kriminalassistent Hunter?” spurgte betjenten. ”For hvis du ikke gør … så tror jeg, du skifter mening, når du kommer herhen.”Med disse ord bliver Hunter kaldt ud til et af de mest barbariske gerningssteder, han nogensinde har set. Og det hele bliver endnu mere foruroligende, da retsmedicinerne finder et digt, som morderen har efterladt inde i liget.Da der sker endnu et drab, er fremgangsmåden og signaturen så forskellig fra det første, at retsteknikerne ikke umiddelbart forbinder de to gerningssteder med hinanden.

"In Top 10 Sunday Times (UK) bestselling author Chris Carter's electrifying follow-up to his "chilling" (Daily Mail) thriller An Evil Mind, the LAPD's Ultra Violent Crimes Unit lead detective, Robert Hunter, races to stop a serial killer whose past secrets rival those of Hunter's himself. Seven days after being abducted, the body of a twenty-year-old woman is found on a grassy area by the Los Angeles International Airport. She has been left with her limbs stretched out and spread apart, placing her in a five-point human star. The autopsy reveals that she has been tortured and murdered in a bizarre way but the surprises don't end there. The killer likes to play, and he left something behind for the cops to find. Detective Robert Hunter is assigned to the case but almost immediately a second body turns up. Detective Hunter quickly realizes that he is chasing a monster--a predator whose past hides a terrible secret, whose desire to hurt people and thirst for murder can never be quenched--for he is DEATH. Fast-paced, action-packed, and filled with suspense, I Am Death is perfect for fans of Jeffery Deaver, Thomas Harris, and Chelsea Cain"--

NEW SCIENCE / PARAPSYCHOLOGY "Chris Carter is a one-man wrecking crew for the time-worn, tedious, petulant, and often flimsy complaints of the die-hard skeptics. A science of consciousness is doomed to be incomplete without taking Carter's keen insights into account." --Larry Dossey, M.D., author of Healing Words and The Power of Premonitions Reports of psychic abilities, such as telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, and psychokinesis, date back to the beginning of recorded human history in all cultures. Documented, reproducible evidence exists that these abilities are real, yet the mainstream scientific community has vehemently denied the existence of psi phenomena for centuries. The battle over the reality of psi has carried on in scientific academies, courtrooms, scholarly journals, newspapers, and radio stations and has included scandals, wild accusations, ruined reputations, as well as bizarre characters on both sides of the debate. If true evidence exists, why then is the study of psi phenomena--parapsychology--so controversial? And why has the controversy lasted for centuries? Exploring the scandalous history of parapsychology and citing decades of research, Chris Carter shows that, contrary to mainstream belief, replicable evidence of psi phenomena exists. The controversy over parapsychology continues not because ESP and other abilities cannot be verified but because their existence challenges deeply held worldviews more strongly rooted in religious and philosophical beliefs than in hard science. Carter reveals how the doctrine of materialism--in which nothing matters but matter--has become an infallible article of faith for many scientists and philosophers, much like the convictions of religious fundamentalists. Consequently, the possibility of psychic abilities cannot be tolerated because their existence would refute materialism and contradict a deeply ingrained ideology. By outlining the origin of this passionate debate, Carter calls on all open-minded individuals to disregard the church of skepticism and reach their own conclusions by looking at the vast body of evidence. CHRIS CARTER received his undergraduate and master's degrees from the University of Oxford. The author of Science and the Near-Death Experience, Carter is originally from Canada and currently teaches internationally.

Jess hat einen Sommerjob auf einem kanadischen Campingplatz. Mit einer Gruppe von fünf anderen Männern und Frauen hilft er, das Gelände von Unrat oder abgebrochenen Ästen zu befreien. Schnell werden die sechs gute Freunde und alles könnte idyllisch sein, wäre da nicht die Gefahr der in den Wäldern lebenden Bären, allen voran des sagenumwobenen Grizzlys Sixty...Eine spannende, auch romantische Geschichte, in der klar wird, wie hart und kompromisslos die Natur sein kann.

"A freak accident in rural Wyoming leads the sheriff's department to arrest a man for a possible double homicide, but further investigations suggest a much more horrifying discovery: a serial killer who has been kidnapping, torturing, and mutilating victims all over the United States for at least twenty-five years. The suspect claims he is a pawn in a huge labyrinth of lies and deception--but can he be believed? The case is immediately handed over to the FBI, but this time they're forced to ask for help from ex-criminal behavior psychologist and lead detective with the Ultra Violent Crime Unit of the LAPD, Robert Hunter. As he begins interviewing the apprehended suspect, terrifying secrets are revealed, including the real identity of a killer so elusive that no one, not even the FBI, had any idea he existed...until now" -- page 4 of cover.

Hodgson and Carter present a volume that contributes to the ongoing debate in Knowledge Management. They develop themes explored in Roy Jacques' influential text, Manufacturing the Employee, as a starting point the authors consider the status of contemporary management knowledge.
