Having picked up some of her late husband's duties, the president of the company has let her stay in the apartment. During one of her nightly tours, she encounters Mr. Vredenburg, President of the Dredging Company, in the boardroom, sitting in his large chair at the head of the table. She hastily walks up to him... only to find him dead. With the switchboard closed at night, Mrs. Hasbergen rushes up to her apartment to call someone, but who? The police? The doctor? Deciding it better to return to the boardroom to examine exactly what happened to Mr Vredenburg, she finds the corpse disappeared. Wrought with worry and confusion, Mrs. Hasbergen learns from one of the secretaries that Mr. Vredenburg has left for a vacation in the Bahamas. Dumbfounded, she can't stand the burden of the night any longer and turns to Inspector DeKok to enlist his help in discovering what happened to Mr. Vredenburg.

       [2017], Adult, Ballantine Books Call No: MYS Fic Per   Edition: First U.S. edition.    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Series Title: William Monk novel   Volume: 23Summary Note: "In the course of his tenure with the Thames River Police, Commander Monk has yet to see a more gruesome crime scene: a Hungarian warehouse owner lies in the middle of his blood-sodden office, pierced through the chest with a bayonet and eerily surrounded by seventeen candles, their wicks dipped in blood. Suspecting the murder may be rooted in ethnic prejudice, Monk turns to London's Hungarian community in search of clues but finds his inquiries stymied by its wary citizens and a language he doesn't speak. Only with the help of a local pharmacist acting as translator can Monk hope to penetrate this tightly knit enclave, even as more of its members fall victim to identical brutal murders. But whoever the killer, or killers, may be--a secret society practicing ritual sacrifice, a madman on a spree, a British native targeting foreigners--they are well hidden among the city's ever-growing populace. With the able assistance of his wife--former battlefield nurse Hester, who herself is dealing with a traumatized war veteran who may be tangled up in the murders--Monk must combat distrust, hostility, and threats from the very people he seeks to protect. But as the body count grows, stirring ever greater fear and anger among the Hungarian resistance to the police also increases. Racing time and the rising tide of terror all around him, Monk must be even more relentless than the mysterious killer, or the echoes of malice and murder will resound through London's streets like a clarion of doom"--From publisher.

       2015., MysteriousPress.com/Open Road Edition: eBook ed.    Series Title: Bibliomystery series.   Volume: 23Summary Note: "Jane Shore was born into a quiet life--the sickly, most easily overlooked daughter of a brood of eight boisterous children. But Jane's tendency to fall ill and her natural penchant for devouring stories in her sickbed reveal a most extraordinary ability: the power to fully immerse herself in a book--in mind and soul if not in body. By tethering her wrist to a suitable anchor in the real world and with the recitation of several key words, Jane can spend hour after hour in whatever literary plot has stolen her fancy. But such a power is an enticing thing, and that which tempts the desires of the masses is sure to bring overwhelming fame to its bearer. Where can someone so well known escape for peace and solitude?".

      By Baum, Gregory, 1923-
       [2017], McGill-Queen's University Press Call No: QWF Bio B337o    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Series Title: Footprints series (MontrÃal, Quebec)   Volume: 23.Summary Note: "Born to a Jewish mother and Protestant father in 1923 Berlin, Gregory Baum has devoted his career to a humanistic approach to Catholicism. In The Oil Has Not Run Dry, Baum shares recollections about his lifelong commitment to theology, his atypical views, and his evolving understanding of the Catholic Church's message. Baum's reflects on his groundbreaking work with the Second Vatican Council (1962 65) and how it helped to open the Church to a new understanding of outsiders--one that advocated cooperation with world religions in support of peace and justice and respected secular philosophies committed to truth and social solidarity. Later embracing Latin American liberation theology, he became a leading thinker of the Catholic Left in Canada, adopting radical positions that initially earned support from Canadian bishops in the 1970s. Diverging from official Catholic doctrines regarding women and sexual ethics, Baum eventually left the priesthood, but continued to teach theology and remained active in the Church. The Oil Has Not Run Dry also discusses the contrast between Catholicism in Quebec and English-speaking North America, and the ways in which Baum sees Quebec's culture as more marked by social solidarity. This significant difference has inspired his decision to present in his own writings the original development of Catholic thought in Quebec to an English-speaking readership. Gregory Baum is professor emeritus in the Faculty of Religious Studies at McGill University and the author of Fernand Dumont: A Sociologist Turns to Theology and Truth and Relevance: Catholic Theology in French Quebec since the Quiet Revolution.
