Her new supervisor, Assistant Special Agent in Charge William Keats--one of only two agents in the Northeast to make his rank before the age of thirty--sees in Angela a fellow prodigy. But Angela's skills come with a natural curiosity, which is also a dangerous liability. With little training, Angela is quickly plunged into a tough case: tracking murderous brothers who go by the Poet and the Engineer. When Keats tells her to "watch and listen," Angela's mind kicks into overdrive. The obsessive thinking that earned her As on campus can prove fatal in the field.

38 Londres Street : on impunity, Pinochet in England, and a Nazi in Patagonia / by Sands, Philippe,1960-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."In this intimate legal and historical detective story, the world-renowned lawyer and acclaimed author of East West Street traces the footsteps of two of the twentieth century's most merciless criminals -- accused of genocide and crimes against humanity -- testing the limits of immunity and impunity after Nuremberg. On the evening of October 16, 1998, Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet was arrested at a medical clinic in London. After a brutal, seventeen-year reign marked by assassinations, disappearances, and torture -- frequently tied to the infamous detention center at the heart of Santiago, Londres 38 -- Pinochet was being indicted for international crimes and extradition to Spain, opening the door to criminal charges that would follow him to the grave, in 2006. Three decades earlier, on the evening of December 3, 1962, SS-Commander Walter Rauff was arrested in his home in Punta Arenas, at the southern tip of Chile. As the overseer of the development and use of gas vans in World War II, he was indicted for the mass murder of tens of thousands of Jews and faced extradition to West Germany. Would these uncommon criminals be held accountable? Were their stories connected? The Nuremberg Trials -- where Rauff's crimes had first been read into the record, in 1945 -- opened the door to universal jurisdiction, and Pinochet's case would be the first effort to ensnare a former head of state. In this unique blend of memoir, courtroom drama, and travelogue, Philippe Sands gives us a front row seat to the Pinochet trial -- where he acted as a barrister for Human Rights Watch -- and teases out the dictator's unexpected connection to a leading Nazi who ended up managing a king crab cannery in Patagonia. A decade-long journey exposes the chilling truth behind the lives of two men and their intertwined destinies on 38 Londres Street"--

The animation gives Mr. Maitland a lot of creative freedom, allowing him to take Expressionistic leaps." -Manohla Dargis, The New York Times"Boldly imaginative …'TOWER' plays like a historical Hitchcock film about ordinary people thrust into extraordinary circumstances. [A] true-crime thriller that’s enriched by a rare depth of inner experience. The effect is as much intellectual as emotional." -Richard Brody, The New YorkerMode of access: World Wide Web.
