Book Description
The notorious true crime story of a sex party that ended in double murder in the woods of Chattanooga County, Georgia. On December 12th, 1982, Tony West and Avery Brock made a visit to Corpsewood Manor under the pretense of a celebration. Then they brutally murdered their hosts. Dr. Charles Scudder had been a professor of pharmacology at Chicago’s Loyola University before he and his boyfriend Joey Odom moved to Georgia and built their own home in the Chattahoochee National Forest. Scudder had absconded with twelve thousand doses of LSD and had a very particular vision for their “castle in the woods.” It included a “pleasure chamber,” and rumors of Satanism swirled around the two men. Scudder even claimed to have summoned a demon to protect the estate. But when Scudder and Odom welcomed West and Brock into their strange abode, they had no idea the men were armed and dangerous. When the evening of kinky fun turned to a scene of gruesome slaughter, the murders set the stage for a sensational trial that engulfed the sleepy Southern town of Trion in shocking revelations and lurid speculations.

Book Description
Early 1984, South Yorkshire, friends Harry Turner and Dale Edwards are working the Cortonwood Colliery mine. Dale is a strong advocate of the active picketing being proposed by Arthur Scargill's National Union of Mineworkers (NUM). The Minister of Trade is in the area to understand what is going on, meeting with Scargill and trying to counter the strikes. His Press Secretary, Ellen Minor, is with him. After the meeting, Ellen finds herself in a local pub where she meets Harry and Dale. She has a strong attraction to them both.Back in Westminster Ellen uncovers a government plan to escalate tensions with Libya. By escalating tensions, the Thatcher government intend to draw attention away from the miner's strikes. By doing so they hope to increase their approval ratings that have slumped since their 1983 election win. The Minister of Trade, via an underworld third party, engages a professional hitman to significantly disrupt a protest outside the Libyan Embassy in London. Having uncovered this plan and with newfound affinity for the miners, Ellen tries to stop this happening. However, she is too late, leaving the hitman undetected and free to kill WPC Yvonne Fletcher.While the killing of WPC Fletcher swings public opinion as intended, it opens the door for a Libyan-based, pro-Gaddafi organisation to inject money into the NUM. By doing so the Libyan organisation hope to destabilize Thatcher's government by shifting public focus back to the mineworkers. Peterborough brick manufacturer and advisor to the NUM, Tom Linney and NUM Chief Executive Roger Windsor are employed to set up the transactions. However, the two have an idea to skim money off the top to help them personally finance a property development in the newly established Canary Wharf area of London. Lack of attention and lack of funds means efforts for the miners are not as effective as they need to be. As a consequence, the largest strike action ever organised, in Orgreave, descends into violent chaos.Dale has been involved in "The Battle of Orgreave" and along with Roger and Tom the three are sent as a delegation to Libya to secure more money. Suspicious himself of the NUM leadership's motives Dale reaches out to his friend Harry, now in a relationship with Ellen, for help. Dale, Harry and Ellen contrive a plan to uncover the deception. Roger however is one step ahead of them all and implicates Tom and Dale who are subsequently arrested and jailed in Libya. With attention focused on Tom and Dale, Roger is able to leave Libya with the money for himself and ultimately forms an illicit partnership with Scargill to bankroll property investments.Armed with proof of both the selfish motivations of the NUM and the recklessness of the Thatcher government, Harry and Ellen settle themselves in London. They are driven to campaign for the release of Dale and for justice for WPC Fletcher. However, by doing so they risk incriminating themselves and ruining a life they are building together. Ellen works closely with a journalist from The Times newspaper to tell what she knows, but with pressure from government the story never makes it to print. Public attention has moved on and events like the bombing of The Grand Hotel in Brighton helps maintain public favor in Thatcher's government. By early 1985 the strikes are over. With time running out to save Dale, who is sick from many months in a Tripoli jail cell, Ellen, out of all other options, ultimately sacrifices everything she has worked for to save him.

Book Description
Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde was born on the 16th October 1854 in Dublin Ireland. The son of Dublin intellectuals Oscar proved himself an outstanding classicist at Dublin, then at Oxford. With his education complete Wilde moved to London and its fashionable cultural and social circles. With his biting wit, flamboyant dress, and glittering conversation, Wilde became one of the most well-known personalities of his day. His only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray was published in 1890 and he then moved on to writing for the stage with Salome in 1891. His society comedies produced enormous hits and turned him into one of the most successful writers of late Victorian London. Whilst his masterpiece, The Importance of Being Earnest, was on stage in London, Wilde had the Marquess of Queensberry, the father of his lover, Lord Alfred Douglas, prosecuted for libel. The trial unearthed evidence that caused Wilde to drop his charges and led to his own arrest and trial for gross indecency. He was convicted and imprisoned for two years' hard labour. It was to break him. On release he left for France, There he wrote his last work, The Ballad of Reading Gaol in 1898. He died destitute in Paris at the age of forty-six sipping champagne a friend had brought with the line 'Alas I am dying beyond my means'. Here we publish the classic short story Lord Arthur Savile's Crime that even if read once deserves another read to fully appreciate his mastery of the written word.
