The citizens of the United States are in peril. The rights that we have taken for granted for over two hundred years are being threatened. Our nation's founding on a proper understanding of God's Moral Law is being eroded. Our country's foundation on the rock has been downgraded to sand. But rather than wring our hands as though there is no hope, we must ask what we can do, especially those of us who follow Christ. Can the Church correct the course of the State? It is our belief that it can.

The Yankees are more astute when it comes to matters like these. They say "not guilty". They don't say "innocent". Because as far as innocence goes, no one can make that claim. A train crashes in the suburbs of Buenos Aires, leaving forty-three people dead. A prayer card of Saint Expeditus, the patron saint of urgent matters, flutters above the wreckage. Hugo, a criminal on the run for murder, is on the train. He seizes his chance to sneak out of the wreckage unsuspected, abandoning his possessions - and, he hopes, his identity - among bodies mangled beyond recognition. As the police descend on the scene, only grizzled Detective DomÃnguez sees a link between the crash and his murder case. Soon, he's on Hugo's tail. But he hasn't banked on everything from the media to his mother-in-law getting in the way. - Häftad, Engelska, 2023

A devastating train crash in the suburbs of Buenos Aires leaves forty-three people dead, but not Hugo Lamadrid, a criminal wanted for murder. He seizes his change to disappear, abandoning his possessions - and, he hopes, his identity - among bodies mangled beyond all recognition.
As the police descend of the scene, only grizzled Detective Domínguez sees a link between the crash and his murder case. Soon, he's on Hugo's tail. But he hasn't banked on everything from the media to Hugo's mother-in-law getting in his way.
This crackling, pacy noir shines a light on urgent social issues - if you loved The Khan by Saima Mir or Lightseekers by Femi Kayode then you'll love Urgent Matters!

All the key players feel like they are pushing their way out of the book into my world'

Hugo muss untertauchen, und zwar sofort. Er wird wegen Mordes gesucht, sein Zug ist entgleist, und am Unfallort wird es von Polizisten gleich nur so wimmeln. Mit einem zerknickten Heiligenbildchen als Beistand ergreift Hugo die Flucht. Bald ist ihm der eigenwillige Polizist Domínguez auf den Fersen, der es mit Moral und Vorschriften nicht so genau nimmt. Womit er nicht gerechnet hat: Der Fall wird zum Medienereignis, und plötzlich schaut ihm das halbe Land über die Schulter. Allen voran Hugos sehr katholische Schwägerin, die öffentlichkeitswirksam für die Seele des Unglücklichen betet. Ein Schlamassel, aus dem der Tod für alle Beteiligten der einfachste Ausweg zu sein scheint. Ein rasantes Verbrecherstück, das mit bitterbösem Humor feststellt: Unschuldig ist wirklich niemand.
