Fortunately for the duo, Sydney's inadequate jail facility forces the jail superintendent, Thomas Musgrave, to adopt novel procedures not quite in keeping with accepted custodial measures allowing the two jailbirds to continue with their fortune seeking scheme. Unknown to both Paul and Andrew, however, are a number of other people interested in The Grovel including illicit casino operators, public servants and politicians. With the future of The Grovel in the balance, Detective Chief Inspector Simon Webster and Detective Sergeant Noel Elliott are faced with an increasing murder count as contenders vie for the property and the fortune ownership will bring.

One hundred and fifty years after the Black Death killed a third of the population of Western Europe, a new plague swept across the continent. The Great Pox—commonly known as the French disease—brought a different kind of horror: instead of killing its victims rapidly, it endured in their bodies for years, causing acute pain, disfigurement, and ultimately an agonizing death. In this new study, three experts explore the impact of the new plague and society's reaction to its challenge. Using a range of contemporary sources, from the archives of charitable and sanitary institutions that coped with the sick to the medical tracts of those who sought to cure it, they provide the first detailed account of the experience of the disease across Renaissance Italy as well as in France and Germany. The authors analyze the symptoms of the Great Pox and the identity of patients, richly documented in the records of the massive hospital for "incurables" established in early sixteenth-century Rome. They show how it challenged accepted medical theory and practice and provoked public disputations among university teachers. And at the most practical level, they reveal the plight of its victims at all levels of society, from ecclesiastical lords to the diseased poor who begged in the streets. Examining a range of contexts from princely courts and republics to university faculties, confraternities, and hospitals, the authors argue powerfully for a historical understanding of the Great Pox based on contemporary perceptions rather than a retrospective diagnosis of what later generations came to know as "syphilis."

The finding of a brutally murdered body on a city beach sends Detective Chief Inspector Simon Webster on a hunt for the perpetrator of the dastardly deed. With the identity of the body established, the course of the investigation leads Simon into the spurious world of politics with any number of devious politicians, gangsters and property developers seen as potential suspects. Simon's domestic situation provides no safe haven from the rigours of criminal catching as he tries to cope with the conviction his wife, Georgie, has that the quiet sea-side suburb is about to be invaded by a villainous bikie gang.

In his Etymologiae, St Isidore of Seville put together a systematic survey of the world in the form of a vast thesaurus of Latin vocabulary, which supplies a more or less accepted or fanciful etymology for each term. It became one of the most influential books of European culture through the whole medieval period. This Latin 'Roget' is traditionally used as a reference work, accessed through an elaborate index system. In this book Professor Henderson, the most challenging critic writing on Latin literature and Roman culture, presents a full reading of all twenty books of the Etymologiae, showing how the material is sequenced so that its reader is treated to a thoroughgoing education in the world as it was apprehended in Jewish, Graeco-Roman and Christian culture. All Latin, including etymologies, is translated.
