Parting shot / by Barclay, Linwood,author.;
"If you made a mistake that took someone's life, you'd remember it ... wouldn't you? After a tragedy rocks the community of Promise Falls, Cal Weaver is asked to investigate the threats being made to the accused's family. He's heard all about it on the news: the young man who drank too much, stole a Porsche and killed a girl, and who claimed afterwards not to remember a single thing. The whole town is outraged that he got off lightly, but for reasons Cal can't explain, he accepts the job. Then Cal finds himself caught up in a vicious revenge plot, chasing someone set on delivering retribution. In Cal's experience, it's only ever a matter of time before threats turn into action. A gripping thriller packed with scandal, from the master of the twist you never saw coming."--

Blood on the coal : the true story of the great Springhill mine disaster / by Cuthbertson, Ken,author.; Murray, Anne,1945-writer of foreword.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."The riveting true story of one of Canada's worst mining disaster, told in the voices of the men who survived. They said it was the world's deepest and most dangerous coal mine. In October 1958, the people who made that claim probably were correct. What can be said for certain is that the Dominion Steel and Coal Company's No. 2 colliery at Springhill was a leading candidate for both those dubious distinctions. The No. 2 mine at Springhill, Nova Scotia, was literally a disaster waiting to happen--and it did. On the night of October 23, 1958, a "bump" in the mine--literally a small earthquake--shook the entire structure crushing the weight of the world down on the miners below. Seventy-five miners would lose their lives in what remains one of Canada's worst disasters. Ken Cuthbertson, author of The Halifax Explosion: Canada's Worst Disaster, tells us the stories of the miners and their families in riveting detail, based on historical documents and interviews but also new interviews with one of the surviving miners. Anne Murray was a girl living in the town of Springfield, home to the mine, when the bump happened, and her father was a doctor who helped treat the wounded and identify the lost, and there were many. This is a story of heroism and sacrifice. As for the miners, what do you do when suddenly there's no escape, no light, no food, no water, and your comrades are dying around you? But this is also a story of hope, as some of the miners were rescued, becoming international celebrities in the process. And it's a story about how one disaster can change an entire industry forever."--

Midnight in Chernobyl : the untold story of the world's greatest nuclear disaster / by Higginbotham, Adam,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Early in the morning of April 26, 1986, Reactor Number Four of the Chernobyl Atomic Energy Station exploded, triggering one of the twentieth century's greatest disasters. In the thirty years since then, Chernobyl has become lodged in the collective nightmares of the world: shorthand for the spectral horrors of radiation poisoning, for a dangerous technology slipping its leash, for ecological fragility, and for what can happen when a dishonest and careless state endangers its citizens and the entire world. But the real story of the accident, clouded from the beginning by secrecy, propaganda, and misinformation, has long remained in dispute. Drawing on hundreds of hours of interviews conducted over the course of more than ten years, as well as letters, unpublished memoirs, and documents from recently-declassified archives, Adam Higginbotham brings the disaster to life through the eyes of the men and women who witnessed it firsthand.
