Barbara Havers er taget på rekreation i Balford-le-Nez, en søvnig badeby på Sydenglands kyst. Da Haytham Querashi, et medlem af byens lille, men hurtigt voksende pakistanske befolkning, bliver fundet død på stranden, vågner det lille samfund. Det viser sig snart, at ikke ret meget er, som det syner på overfladen. Det bliver en af de hårdeste sager Havers har været på, for hun skal ikke kun undersøge en morders sind men også en sag, som ligger foruroligende tæt på hendes eget hjerte. Mens spændingen og temperaturen i den hedebølge, som har ramt landet, stiger, må Havers tage kampen op med lokale politiske konflikter, betændte familieforhold og spændte racekonflikter.

En massemorder er på spil i London. Ofrene er unge drenge, og da flere af dem er af udenlandsk herkomst, hævder både offentligheden, religiøse og politiske ledere samt ikke mindst pressen, at politiets langsommelighed i opklaringen af mordene er udtryk for grov racisme. Thomas Lynley bliver sat på sagen, men da han forsøger at få Barbara Havers genindsat i den rang, hun tidligere har haft, og han desuden selv vil bestemme, hvordan efterforskningen skal føres, møder han alvorlig modstand hos den øverste ledelse i New Scotland Yard. Der sker flere bestialske mord, og konflikterne i gruppen tager til, mens kravet fra offentligheden om en hurtig og effektiv løsning bliver mere og mere massivt.

Den 67-årige mangemillionær Guy Brouard bliver fundet død på en strand på den engelske kanalø Guernsey, kvalt med en mærkelig talisman. Han har i nogle år levet alene sammen med sin søster, men har flere ægteskaber og børn bag sig. Det amerikanske søskendepar China og Cherokee River har fået til opgave at transportere nogle vigtige tegninger fra Californien til Guernsey og ankommer til den engelske kanalø få dage før mordet. Det der blot skulle have været en fredelig tur over Atlanten, tager pludselig en helt anden drejning, da China bliver arresteret for mordet på Guy Brouard. Cherokee opsøger Chinas ungdomsveninde, fotografen Deborah St. James og hendes mand Simon, og beder om deres hjælp. I deres søgen efter morderen, erfarer Deborah og Simon snart, at adskillige mennesker på Guernsey har haft grund til at ønske Guy Brouard død: hans tidligere hustruer, hans forretningsforbindelser, hans elskerinde og ikke mindst den fattige dreng Paul Fielder.

Engaging the Past: Action and Interaction in the History Classroom provides practical steps toward using engaging strategies in the classroom to teach students to think historically. These strategies include an approach developed by the author called “The You Decide! Lecture,” and innovative ways to use board games and role-playing games in the history classroom. The goal is not simply to add window dressing to fundamentally dull lessons, but rather to re-examine how teachers think about students as learners of history. This book follows the growing trend within historical pedagogy to care less about content coverage and more about deep engagement, student learning, and the importance of historical thinking. The students in our classrooms today are the history teachers of tomorrow and awakening them to the exciting complexities of the past is critical to keep the study of history thriving.
