In this ninth Bob Skinner mystery, the Deputy Chief Constable is tied to a desk job because his boss has recently suffered a heart attack. With murder and terrorism to contend with his time at the desk will be short-lived.
The weapon is invisible and omnipresent. Without it, modern society grinds to a halt. It is electricity. The killer harnesses and steers huge arc flashes with voltage so high and heat so searing that steel melts and his victims are set afire. When the first explosion occurs in broad daylight, reducing a city bus to a pile of molten, shrapnel-riddled metal, officials fear terrorism. Rhyme, a world-class forensic criminologist known for his successful apprehension of the most devious criminals, is immediately tapped for the investigation.
Become a soldier in the war on terrorism—without having to leave the house—with this illustrated guide to patriotic protection. Answering questions like Could I be dating a terrorist?, Which minority groups should I be afraid of?, and Where can I purchase bulletproof vests in children’s sizes?, this humorous guide contains helpful advice to combat terrorism. A section for teens is also included, including topics like what to do at a party when one is invited to join in a terrorist attack, especially when all the cool kids are doing it.
For a topic so widespread and diversified, it’s no simple task to explain just which acts or groups are terrorist since one man’s terrorist may be another’s enforcer of justice. Still, this new, updated, and expanded edition of the Historical Dictionary of Terrorism certainly makes the situation much clearer by presenting an amazing amount of information in the dictionary’s hundreds of entries on main issues, techniques, and counterterrorism measures.
