Story
Fallon Swift, approaching her thirteenth birthday, barely knows the world that existed before - the city where her parents lived, now in ruins and reclaimed by nature since the Doom sickened and killed billions. Traveling anywhere is a danger, as vicious gangs of Raiders and fanatics called Purity Warriors search for their next victim. Those like Fallon, in possession of gifts, are hunted - and the time is coming when her true nature, her identity as The One, can no longer be hidden.

Story
A young woman's body is discovered on a deserted footpath. It seems like a simple crime for DCI Sophie Allen and her team to solve. But not when the victim's mother is found strangled the next morning. The case grows more complex as DCI Sophie Allen discovers that the victims had secret histories, involving violence and intimidation. There's an obvious suspect, but Detective Allen isn't convinced. Could someone else be lurking in the shadows, someone savagely violent, looking for warped revenge?

I didn’t like the narration of this book, it lacked the suspense and didn’t hold the story well

Some great twists and turns in this book as it models the financial world and that or a small opal town with some dodgy dealings and a checkered past.

Story
Jane Bancroft has returned to Lovett, Tasmania after 20 years away, minus one ex-husband but plus one outraged teenage daughter. Life in the city – life in general – hasn’t quite panned out as she would have liked. With her mother unwell, now seems as good a time as any to come back to where it all began, and perhaps even start a new life here in the heart of Tasmanian apple country. But the legacy of Jane's wild apple youth has not been forgotten by small-town Lovett and her homecoming is haunted by past tragedy.

I have really enjoyed the Jackman and Ellis series. As much as I enjoyed listening to this book I felt it lacked that Joy Ellis spark.

One sunny August afternoon, the residents of Cedar Close throw their annual summer barbecue. Children play in the cherry-tree lined street, tables are laden with food, and the wine is flowing. For Laurie Mills, it’s her first time meeting the neighbours. And it’s the first time she discovers her husband, Robert, is having an affair. Cedar Close has always been a nice place to live - a quiet suburban street where everyone looks out for one another and bad things don’t happen. Until late one evening, when Robert Mills is found dead in his bedroom.

Story
Born in Denmark, I moved to Luxembourg 20 years ago. First I worked with engineering and later on with group facilitation, group dynamics, personality types and over the years I got more and more drawn towards self-development training. Around 10 years ago I started studying Gestalt Therapy and have now for the last 5 years had a successful Gestalt Therapy praxis in Luxembourg. This podcast will deal with topics I have come across in my praxis, in my day to day life or current events that are happening in the world. All topics are related to mental well-being and existential questions.
