The Room

Five Days of Heaven, Five Days of Hell

By: Quintin Jones

Jack Kaynes was slowly drawn into a world of his own obsession and constantly watched the late night news. Over time he began to believe that the beautiful and elegant news presenters were reaching out to him. Unchained by morals or ethics, this loner yielded to his dark obsession and with the abductions of the newsreaders he took a perilous chance to be with the women he loved, even though he knew little of their real personalities.

The Running Spirit

RUN FROM THE HEART, RUN WITH THE SPIRIT

By: Quintin Jones

Robert ‘Bobby’ Talay was a runner of immense talent and a great ambassador for athletes everywhere and it is with this in mind that I have written this story. This is not a biography of Bobby’s life, instead it is an insight into his passion for athletics and the spirit in which he competed. And as a gesture to Bobby’s memory half of the profits of this book will be donated to Little Athletics N.S.W.

The Bob Skinner Collection

By: Quintin Jardine

Available together for the very first time, these are the first three crime novels in the inimitable Bob Skinner series by Quintin Jardine. Skinner's Rules As head of Edinburgh's CID, Detective Chief Superintendent Bob Skinner has seen it all... but even he is shocked by the savagely mutilated corpse discovered in a dark alleyway. Further random killings in the city suggest a vicious serial killer is on the rampage. But when the first victim's fiancee is also murdered, Skinner realises that someone is in deadly earnest... Skinner's Festival An explosion rocks Princes Street in the midst of the Edinburgh Festival. Responsibility is claimed by a group supposedly demanding political separation from Britain, but as atrocities escalate Skinner realises this is no gang of fanatics, but a highly professional team. And he is forced to assemble a crack task force, carry the ball when the government fumbles on the air, and wrestle with the beast within, who emerges with periodic ferocity to foil a clever, greedy scheme involving the crown jewels and Skinner's own daughter. Skinner's Trail First the joyous birth of Skinner's son... Then the grim reality of murder in one of Edinburgh's prosperous suburbs. As the murder investigation continues without result, it seems the killer was particularly cunning in covering his tracks - leaving no clues or leads to pursue. But then another seemingly minor crime takes Assistant Chief Constable Bob Skinner in a new direction, along a tortuous and bloody trail.

The Tenants' Movement

The Tenants' Movement

Resident involvement, community action and the contentious politics of housing

By: Quintin Bradley

The Tenants' Movement is both a history of tenant organization and mobilization, and a guide to understanding how the struggles of tenant organizers have come to shape housing policy today. Charting the history of tenant mobilization, and the rise of consumer movements in housing, it is one of the first cross-cultural, historical analyses of tenants’ organizations’ roles in housing policy. The Tenants' Movement shows both the past and future of tenant mobilization. The book’s approach applies social movement theory to housing studies, and bridges gaps between research in urban sociology, urban studies, and the built environment, and provides a challenging study of the ability of contemporary social movements, community campaigns and urban struggles to shape the debate around public services and engage with the unfinished project of welfare reform.

Screen Savers (Oz Blackstone series, Book 4)

An unputdownable mystery of kidnap and intrigue

By: Quintin Jardine

The spotlight can be murder... In Quintin Jardine's Screen Savers, Oz Blackstone attempts to put the past behind him, before crime comes creeping back to meet him. Perfect for fans of Ian Rankin and Peter May. 'Screen Savers is a novel that engages you from the start' - Dundee Evening Telegraph For Oz Blackstone, the days of getting into trouble for a living, otherwise known as being a private enquiry agent, could soon be behind him. An undercover stint posing as a TV wrestling Master of Ceremonies has convinced him that he might just have a bit of a hidden theatrical talent. So when Oz gets the chance of a bit-part in a movie, it seems like an offer he can't refuse - even though his own life is fast developing a dramatic storyline of its own, with a frightening series of accidents befalling people close to him. And when the female lead is kidnapped from the set in a bizarre echo of the movie's rollercoaster plot, fiction and reality come together in a terrifying climax. But has Oz got what it takes to save the day? What readers are saying about Screen Savers: 'A book of so many twists and turns... what an outcome, would never have worked that one out' 'A first class yarn' 'Five stars
