David Kristich, son-in-law of Louisa Daniel, discovers he owns a dilapidated warehouse courtesy of the will of his natural father with whom David had minimal contact. When checking out the warehouse, David, wife Emily and Louisa discover human bones. Not only does the family find bones, they also find a park behind the warehouse which adds to the intrigue of the building. In addition to the problem of an empty building, David also inherits a group of preservationists who wish to keep the historic atmosphere of Pleasant Creek intact. A second group of money-hungry land developers wants to profit from the sale of the land. A third faction wants control of the building to keep the bones a secret. These groups pester many aspects of David's life-his office and business operations and his activities with his family at swim meets, picnics and investigating his new acquisition. Before David can dispose of his 'gift' from his father, he must first solve the mystery of the building. Louisa and Emily use their resources to help solve a romantic legend surrounding the bones and the mystery of how those bones became a part of the building. 'Attention grabbing details, smooth prose, and interesting personal sidelights." -Library Journal (for Social Graces) 'Hall's whimsical second mystery.serves up a filling dish." -Publisher's Weekly (for Nowhere is Somewhere)

Social Graces

By: Malinda Hall

Social worker Louisa Daniel is in her sixties, recently divorced, harried, and always late to work, to the consternation of Charles, her boss at the Contra Costa County social service agency where she is employed. The fatal accident of Letitia, a co-worker, changes Louisa's life and turns her into an amateur sleuth. She discovers that Letitia had been moonlighting as a call girl, and that she had information on the Strengs, a family connected to the agency, which sealed her fate. Zoe Streng is trying to adopt a baby through the agency, and her brother, Percival, is Louisa's boss' lover, resulting in a complicated list of suspects. Will Louisa find the murderer in time? Or will she too fall victim to the plots surrounding the social service agency?

Child Development

Through Time and Transition

By: Malinda Jo Muzi

For freshman/sophmore courses in Child Development and Developmental Psychology (including adolescence) at two and four year schools taught in psychology, human ecology, human development, and early childhood education. To bring to life the colorful, fascinating and sometimes puzzling process of developmental psychology, this text uses the lives of famous individuals to illustrate development in action and introduce each chapter's content. Through an analysis of the young lives of these individuals, students will come to understand how heredity and environment interact to mold development. Two main themes flow throughout the text: The child within his or her culture and the child within the family. Using these themes this text covers the main theories, research and applications of developmental psychology and illustrates how society, culture and the family interact with heredity to shape physical, cognitive, and social development. An engaging writing style, lots of solid practical information and interesting examples grab the student's interest and further illuminate this subject.
