The Dolphin Girl: Discovery of a mutilated dolphin draws Jessica into a crime darker than the Scottish seas
Darkness stirs on a quiet Moray Firth beach. When Jessica McBain discovers a dolphin washed ashore on her childhood beach, the shock runs deeper than grief. The animal has been shot, an act that tears through the fragile peace of the Black Isle community and draws Jessica into a spiralling investigation. As police probe rising tensions between locals, tourists, and rival marine operators, Jessica finds herself confronting old wounds, uneasy loyalties, and a growing connection with Dan Birchall, the young researcher trying to make sense of the killing. But a s secrets surface and danger closes in, Jessica must face a devastating truth: if someone would kill a dolphin, what else might they do?
A Sumerian Chrestomathy: With the Collaboration of Silvano Votto and Jessica Baldwin
A Sumerian Chrestomathy by Konrad Volk has been written for beginners studying Sumerian within the academic curriculum. The volume contains 44 texts of varying contents: royal inscriptions, legal, and economic documents dating from the Early Dynastic (ca. 2500 B.C.) to the Old Babylonian Period (ca. 1750 B.C.) when Sumerian was no longer a spoken language. Some of the autographed texts are accompanied by a version in Neo-Assyrian script so that the student can learn the Neo-Assyrian sign forms which are of fundamental importance for the use of the sign list in this book and, in general, for most Assyriological sign lists. Each inscription can be studied with the help of the sign list, which is intentionally limited to the signs that occur in this book. Reference is given to the most recent works in the field by R. Borger and C. Mittermayer. Also included are individual and detailed glossaries: General Vocabulary; Divine Names; Personal Names; Place Names; Sacred Buildings; Year Dates; Year Names; Festivals. These glossaries not only quote the lexical items found in the inscriptions but also give the Akkadian equivalents for Sumerian words and refer - wherever necessary - to the most recent Sumerological literature.
