Have you noticed that a large portion of the prayer requests at Bible studies relate to a need for healing, either for ourselves or our loved-ones? But in spite of that important ongoing need, very little is taught on healing from most pulpits and in most Bible study groups What does the Bible tell us about healing? Can we know God's will regarding healing? How did Jesus pray for healing? What did He instruct His followers concerning healing? What about my own physical needs... how should I pray for my own need for healing? The Bible has a lot to say about health and healing and we're going to dig it out, and open our hearts to the Holy Spirit's illumination so we can know what God has said in His Word and agree with Him as we pray.

Den lantliga idyllen i den engelska småstaden Ludlow krackelerar när en av dess mest högaktade medborgare, diakonen Ian Druitt, anklagas för pedofili. Än större oro blir det när Druitt avlider på den lokala polisstationen efter att han häktats. Frågan är om diakonen har begått självmord, eller blivit mördad? Barbara Havers och Thomas Lynley skickas till Ludlow för att undersöka om några fel begåtts av den lokala polisen i utredningsarbetet. De upptäcker att de flesta i Ludlows befolkning, som till lika delar består av pensionärer och universitetsstuderande, har något att dölja. De båda kriminalpolisernas skicklighet sätts på prov när de försöker avslöja alla lögnaktiga vittnesmål om händelseförloppet och utreder här ett av sina mest svårlösta fall. I Det straff hon förtjänar är Elizabeth George i toppform - en av hennes mest intrikata deckare någonsin, som håller läsaren på sträckbänken hela vägen.

Award-winning author Elizabeth George delivers another masterpiece of suspense in her Inspector Lynley series. When a Member of Parliament shows up at New Scotland Yard requesting an investigation into the suicide of the son of one of his constituents in the beautiful town of Ludlow, the Assistant Commissioner sees two opportunities in this request: the first is to have an MP owing him a favour, and the second is to get rid of Detective Sergeant Barbara Havers, whose career at the Met has been hanging by a thread for quite some time. So he assigns Havers to the case and for good measure partners her with the one person who shares his wish to see the back of her, Detective Chief Superintendent Isabelle Ardery. But Ardery has her own difficulties. She is not happy to be sent away from London and as a result is in a rush to return. This causes her to overlook certain uncomfortable facts. Soon, the case is opened again and this time, it is Lynley who must accompany Havers to Ludlow, with little more than a week to save the Met's reputation and Barbara's job. And the more they investigate, the more it looks as if the suicide was part of a much more sinister pattern of events.
