Considering race and ethnicity as organising principles in why, how, where and by whom crimes are committed and enforced, this volume argues that dimensions of race and ethnicity condition the very laws that make certain behaviours criminal, and the determination of who becomes a victim of crime under which circumstances.

"Perhaps the most explosive and troublesome phenomenon at the nexus of race and crime is the racial hoax - a contemporary version of The Boy Who Cried Wolf. Examining both White-on-Black hoaxes such as Susan Smith's and Charles Stuart's claims that Black men were responsible for crimes they themselves committed, and Black-on-White hoaxes such as the Tawana Brawley episode, Russell illustrates the formidable and lasting damage that occurs when racial stereotypes are manipulated and exploited for personal advantage. She shows us how such hoaxes have disastrous consequences and argues for harsher punishments for offenders."--BOOK JACKET.

Two people convinced they're unworthy of love...until they meet each other. Camille Rivera is drowning. Her father's sick, her brother's in deep with a dirty cop, and her mechanic shop is failing. She's growing desperate, trying to keep her world afloat in whatever way she can. Nero Gallo is the neighborhood hazard. A mess-maker. A walking disaster. Camille has watched him burn through every girl in a ten-mile radius, as vicious as he is gorgeous, breaking hearts and never, ever getting attached. Which is why she can't believe it when Nero unexpectedly saves her from a risky situation. They've lived next to each other their whole lives, yet she's only ever known him as sin made flesh. Is it possible she didn't really know him at all? They aren't friends. They aren't allies. But Nero is the only chance Camille has, and she'll have to trust there's more to him beneath the savage surface. Except trust is a dangerous thing to give. And Camille is about to learn the only thing more dangerous than trusting Nero is falling for him.

This edited volume explores the dynamics of race, crime, and the criminal justice system in the United States today. The book gives equal attention to the links between images of color and images of crime as well as the ramifications of criminal justice policies and practices. Changes to the new edition include the following: * Revised introductory and concluding chapters that more clearly outline the focus and selection of the racial and ethnic groups discussed. * The book further examines the ways in which gender, religion, culture, sexuality, and sexual orientation are central components of racialized constructions. * A new chapter provides examples of current criminal justice practices and crime control policies on racial and ethnic groups, including law enforcement policies, prosecution and sentencing, and imprisonment. * Brief, framing introductions underscore why each chapter is important and how it fits into the book's overarching themes. * Each chapter includes discussion questions and a list of relevant websites. * An accompanying Instructor's Manual prepared by David R. Montague is new to the Third Edition.

The eighteenth instalment in the Number One bestselling DCI Banks series A beautiful June day in the Yorkshire Dales, and a group of children are spending the last of their half-term freedom swimming in the river near Hindswell Woods. But the idyll is shattered by their discovery of a man's body, hanging from a tree. DI Annie Cabott soon discovers he is Mark Hardcastle, the well-liked and successful set designer for the Eastvale Theatres current production of Othello. Everything points to suicide, and Annie is mystified. Why would such a man want to take his own life? Then Annie's investigation leads to another shattering discovery, and DCI Alan Banks is called back from the idyllic weekend he had planned with his new girlfriend. Banks soon finds himself plunged into a shadow-world where nothing is what it seems, where secrets and deceit are the norm, and where murder is seen as the solution to a problem. The deeper he digs the more he discovers that the monster he has awakened will extend its deadly reach to his friends and family. Nobody is safe.

"Three-quarters of a century ago, Dorothy L. Sayers compiled the classic anthology The Omnibus of Crime, a definitive collection of short fiction that brought together crime and mystery works from the Apocryphal Scriptures to whodunits from the 1920s. Now, reflecting the explosive developments in the genre, Tony Hillerman and Rosemary Herbert celebrate the seventy-fifth anniversary of that book's publication with A New Omnibus of Crime. Like Sayers's volume, this new book is envisioned as a vehicle carrying stories the editors think represent the best in crime and mystery writing in our time. Selections also reflect the tastes of Contributing Editors Sue Grafton and Jeffery Deaver, both of whom have stories in this volume."--BOOK JACKET.

26 août 1951, quelque part au Texas. Chaim Chlebeck est laissé pour mort dans la poussière rouge du désert, et retrouvé par un drôle de couple : Dallas, une Indienne borgne et sauvage, mais sacrément attirante, et un certain Dirk, scientifique allemand venu se perdre dans l'immensité nord-américaine pour fuir les ambitions nucléaires de son gouvernement. "United Colors of Crime" peut-être lu tout autant comme un roman d'aventure que comme une extravagante histoire d'amour, dans un décor de western peuplé d'Indiens plutôt violents, de shérifs plutôt coulants, et d'une bande de mafieux prêts à traverser le pays pour retrouver leur poulain fugueur, Chaim. Car tuer froidement un parrain de la mafia - même si l'on en fait soi-même partie - ne passe pas inaperçu, dans les bas-fonds de Little Italy. C'est ainsi que Chaim, ancien soldat à Monte Cassino, ancien tueur à gages et protégé du caïd Lucky Luciano, s'est mis à avaler les kilomètres, jusqu'à se retrouver au beau milieu de nulle part, entre Alpine et Fort Stockton, à se reconstruire une vie à peu près normale, si ce n'était ces fantômes de New York lui courant après. De l'Europe aux States, de New York au grand sud américain, Richard Morgiève revient avec une galerie de personnages excentriques et une description acide de la société américaine marquée par le maccarthysme et la ségrégation, le pouvoir de l'argent et la violence.
