A young woman is found brutally murdered, and the main suspect is the victim’s fiancé, a hideously scarred Iraq War vet known as the Burned Man. But railroad police Special Agent Sydney Rose Parnell, brought in by the Denver Major Crimes unit to help investigate, can't shake the feeling that larger forces are behind this apparent crime of passion.

In the depths of an icy winter, Parnell and her K9 partner, Clyde ― both haunted by their time in Iraq ― descend into the underground world of a savage gang of rail riders. There, they uncover a wide-reaching conspiracy and a series of shocking crimes. Crimes that threaten everything Parnell holds dear.

As the search for the truth puts her directly in the path of the killer, Parnell must struggle with a deadly question: Can she fight monsters without becoming one herself?

WINNER OF THE THURBER PRIZE - The compelling, inspiring, (often comic) coming-of-age story of Trevor Noah, set during the twilight of apartheid and the tumultuous days of freedom that followed.

One of the comedy world's brightest new voices, Trevor Noah is a light-footed but sharp-minded observer of the absurdities of politics, race and identity, sharing jokes and insights drawn from the wealth of experience acquired in his relatively young life. As host of the US hit show The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, he provides viewers around the globe with their nightly dose of biting satire, but here Noah turns his focus inward, giving readers a deeply personal, heartfelt and humorous look at the world that shaped him.

Noah was born a crime, son of a white Swiss father and a black Xhosa mother, at a time when such a union was punishable by five years in prison. Living proof of his parents' indiscretion, Trevor was kept mostly indoors for the first years of his life, bound by the extreme and often absurd measures his mother took to hide him from a government that could, at any moment, take him away.

A collection of eighteen personal stories, Born a Crime tells the story of a mischievous young boy growing into a restless young man as he struggles to find his place in a world where he was never supposed to exist. Born a Crime is equally the story of that young man's fearless, rebellious and fervently religious mother - a woman determined to save her son from the cycle of poverty, violence and abuse that ultimately threatens her own life.

Whether subsisting on caterpillars for dinner during hard times, being thrown from a moving car during an attempted kidnapping, or just trying to survive the life-and-death pitfalls of dating in high school, Noah illuminates his curious world with an incisive wit and an unflinching honesty. His stories weave together to form a personal portrait of an unlikely childhood in a dangerous time, as moving and unforgettable as the very best memoirs and as funny as Noah's own hilarious stand-up. Born a Crime is a must read. 9781473635302

BRUNEI An Islamic Nation Islamic Background Author Name: Yang Berhormat Publisher: Islamic Da'Wah Centre Brunei Publish Year: 2000 Total page: 83

Consists of six chapters which explained the history of coinage and currency in Brunei and the Malay Archipelago. It also contains some specimens of coinage and currency used in Brunei and the Malay Archipelago since few centuries and decades ago.

This book was published in conjunction with the official opening of the Brunei History Centre as well as an exhibition on the history of Coinage of Brunei and Nusantara. 

The book is interesting and to use to words in the foreword 'sheds light on the history and administration of the Sultans of Brunei during the late 17th and 18th centuries.' The coins in the book served to validate the Brunei Tarsilah such as the rightful correct lineage of the Sultans throughout the ages. Some of the earliest identifiable coins are those that belong to Sultan Nasaruddin who ruled from 1690 to 1710 and there are other coin which have been issue either prior to, or later than some of the more positively identified coinage. Those who doubted the existence of Brunei only has to look at the older coins and the coins really demonstrated the capability of the Brunei economy at that time. We don't really know the exact time when Brunei issued its own coins. Some of the earliest unidentifiable coins are said to be about a few hundred years earlier than some of the more identifiable ones.

This book examines how the education policies that emerged in the Bruneian education system from 1954 to 2014 produced progress, tailored to current needs. These policies were faced with many challenges. Among the major challenges the education policies were often faced with during this period was to adopt Malay as the instructional medium in schools throughout the country. This issue could be seen in the Education Policies 1954, 1962 and 1972 which advocated for Malay to be the medium of instruction. However, there were challenges in its implementation. These challenges were not only due to internal, but also external factors. Therefore, schools in various language streams continued to exist in Brunei, as stated in Education Policy 1954. When the Bilingual Education Policy and SPN 21 were introduced, the challenge to adopt Malay as the instructional medium resurfaced. It was apparent that these two policies did not manage to make Malay as the medium of instruction because it was overshadowed by English. The same happened when the National Education System of the 21st Century was launched in 2008 to replace the previous education systems. The previous systems were said to be unable to provide the academic and skills programmes, which were relevant to high technology global needs. However, this policy created discontentment among the Muslims in the country. This was where Islamic Education and Malay Islamic Monarchy were no longer the core, but only elective subjects. Due to public pressure, as well as the Sultan's reprimand, thus, in late 2009 both were made core subjects. 9789991787497
