No way out : a novel / by Hunter, Cara,author.;
It's Christmas in Oxford, and firefighters have pulled two children from the smoking ruin of their home. The mystery deepens when it becomes clear that the parents are nowhere to be found. Why were the children left in the house alone? Why is neither parent answering their phone? Were they kidnapped? Murdered? From the start, DI Fawley--still reeling from his own personal tragedy--knows that this house fire is the scene of a crime, not an accident. Then new evidence comes to light and confirms the team's worst suspicions. The blaze was arson. Who would have torched a seemingly happy family's home on Christmas? As DI Fawley and his team of detectives sift through the evidence, old tensions and new problems in the family are slowly revealed. Something terribly out of the ordinary has happened, and the truth slowly begins to reveal itself ... A gripping and provocative tale of arson, murder, and family intrigue, No Way Out is everything you'd expect from one of Britain's queens of crime, Cara Hunter.

Sink : a memoir / by Thomas, Joseph Earl,author.;
"Stranded in a volatile, ever-shifting family, saddled with a mercurial mother mired in crack addiction, and demeaned daily for his perceived weakness, Joseph Earl Thomas was under constant threat. Roaches fell from the ceiling, colonizing bowls of noodles and cereal boxes. Fists and palms pounded down at school and at home, leaving welts that ached long after they disappeared. An inescapable hunger gnawed at his frequently empty stomach, and requests for food were often met with indifference if not open hostility. Deemed too unlike the other boys to ever gain the acceptance he so desperately desired, he began to escape into fantasy and virtual worlds, wells of happiness in a childhood assailed at all sides. In a series of exacting and fierce vignettes, Thomas guides readers through the unceasing cruelty that defined his circumstances, laying bare the depths of his loneliness and illuminating the vital reprieve geek culture offered him. With remarkable tenderness and devastating clarity, he explores how lessons of toxic masculinity were drilled into his body and the way the cycle of violence permeated the very fabric of his environment. Still, he carves out unexpected moments of joy, from summers where he was freed from the injurious structures of his surroundings to the first glimpses of community he caught on his journey to becoming a Pokémon champion. SINK follows Thomas's coming-of-age towards an understanding of what it means not to fit in--with his immediate peers, or his turbulent family--and traces his first attempts at communion with other like-minded people, and solidarity, and eventually, salvation"--
