Efter att ha löst ett mord för ett år sedan har saker och ting återgått till det normala för korsordsmakaren Judith Potts och hennes vänner, hundvaktaren Suzie och kyrkoherdens fru Becks. Men allt förändras när Judith blir bjuden till ett cocktailparty för att fira den stundande vigseln mellan den förmögna sir Peter Bailey och den mycket yngre sjuksköterskan Jenny Page. På festen anar hon att vissa gäster inte tycker att vigseln är en särskilt bra idé, och innan eftermiddagen når sitt slut hittas brudgummen död i sitt arbetsrum. Då rummet är låst från insidan tror polisen inte att det handlar om ett mord, men Judith är av en annan åsikt. Det ser ut som att de tre vännerna har sitt andra fall ...

Döden i Marlow är en pusseldeckare av bästa slag, där engelskt småstadsgemyt, en excentrisk gammal dam och brutala mord återfinns bland ingredienserna.

ROBERT THOROGOOD är mest känd som skaparen bakom tv-succén Mord i paradiset. Han föddes i Colchester 1972. Vid tio års ålder läste han sin första Agatha Christie-bok och har varit förälskad i genren sedan dess.

Thorogood / / gör Morden i Marlow mysiga på det där Midsomer - sättet, där ett stillsamt, lummigt England befolkas av moderna miss Marples, kyrkokörer och en och annan tämligen lättfångad mördare. Lotta Olsson, Dagens Nyheter

Enhance your enjoyment of the series as, for the first time, Robert Thorogood brings the characters to life on the page in an all-new locked-room mystery.Aslan Kennedy has an idyllic life: leader of a spiritual retreat for wealthy holidaymakers on one of the Caribbean's most unspoilt islands, Saint Marie. Until he's murdered, that is. The case seems open and shut: when Aslan was killed he was inside a locked room with only five other people, one of whom has already confessed to the murder.Detective Inspector Richard Poole is hot, bothered, and fed up with talking to witnesses who'd rather discuss his 'aura' than their whereabouts at the time of the murder. But he also knows that the facts of the case don't quite stack up. In fact, he's convinced that the person who's just confessed to the murder is the one person who couldn't have done it. Determined to track down the real killer, DI Poole is soon on the trail, and no stone will be left unturned. A must read for fans of the TV series and Agatha Christie crime classics featuring Marple and Poirot. Praise for Robert Thorogood:‘Very funny and dark with great pace.

Om du ska lösa ett oväntat mordfall, krävs en överraskande hjälte ...

77-åriga Judith Potts i Marlow är en alltigenom lycklig kvinna: Hon bor för sig själv i ett vackert men aningen slitet hus i Arts and Craftstil vid Themsens strand. Hon konstruerar korsord till The Times och gläds över att det inte finns någon man i hennes liv som talar om vad hon ska göra eller hur mycket whisky hon bör dricka. En sen kväll, då Judith tar sin dagliga simtur blir hon vittne till det brutala mordet på grannen med hus på andra sidan av floden. Då polisen sedan inte vill tro henne, tar Judith lagen i egna händer och börjar luska i saker och ting på egen hand. Tillsammans med två osannolika vänner hon hittar under utredningens gång, bildar de Marlows egen lilla mordklubb. Men när ytterligare en död kropp dyker upp och de plötsligt verkar vara en äkta seriemördare på spåren, har pusslet de bestämde sig för att lägga kommit ett bli en fälla de kanske inte kan ta sig ur ...

Morden i Marlow är en pusseldeckare av bästa slag, där engelskt småstadsgemyt, en excentrisk gammal dam och brutala mord återfinns bland ingredienserna.

Evaluating Health Promotion

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar

Health Promotion is a relatively new discipline and there is little in the way of practical help for students and practitioners in choosing and implementing appropriate evaluation methods. As the demands for rigorous evaluation and evidence-based decision-making increase, health promotion cannot ignore the need for accurate, reliable and valid methods to carry out evaluation. This book provides clear descriptions (with plentiful practical examples) of such methods, and the problems that can arise from their implementation. Both qualitative and quantitative methods that are commonly used are described and the problems and benefits that arise with their use are explained. Experiences in the practical implementation of evaluation are explained, with examples from a variety of different social, economic and cultural contexts. The third edition of this highly successful book has been fully revised and updated to reflect the ongoing developments in the field of health promotion. It will appeal to students and practitioners in health promotion and public health (including programme managers in both the government and the voluntary sector), and donors and funding agencies who commission health promotion interventions and evaluations.

The incredible story of one man's obsession to find and protect the world's largest flowers As a child, Chris Thorogood dreamed of seeing Rafflesia - the plant with the world's largest flowers. He crafted life-size replicas in an abandoned cemetery, carefully bringing them to life with paper and paint. Today he is a botanist at the University of Oxford's Botanic Garden and has dedicated his life to studying the biology of such extraordinary plants, working alongside botanists and foresters in Southeast Asia to document these huge, mysterious blooms.Pathless Forest is the story of his journey to study and protect this remarkable plant - a biological enigma, still little understood, which invades vines as a leafless parasite and steals its food from them. We join him on a mind-bending adventure, as he faces a seemingly impenetrable barrier of weird, wonderful and sometimes fearsome flora; finds himself smacking off leeches, hanging off vines, wading through rivers; and following indigenous tribes into remote, untrodden rainforests in search of Rafflesia's ghostly, foul-smelling blooms, more than a metre across.We depend on plants for our very existence, but two in five of the world's species are threatened with extinction - nobody knows how many species of Rafflesia might already have disappeared through deforestation. Pathless Forest is part thrilling adventure story and part an inspirational call to action to safeguard a fast-disappearing wilderness. To view plants in a different way, as vital for our own future as for that of the planet we share. And to see if Rafflesia itself can be saved.
