When the aliens began attacking every night, the Council reunited nations and became the defender of humanity. But there are some who say the Council is just as much of a problem as the aliens.For example, a young woman who's learned the hard way that anyone who gets in the way of the Council disappears forever. Or a girl who's fleeing an accident she'd be blamed for, who makes a discovery the Council would kill her for.Then there's Gillian Roth--feared by everyone who knows she exists.Gillian has a lot of secrets. Secrets about the Council, secrets about herself, secrets about her family. Sometimes it's nearly impossible to keep all of these secrets at the same time. When some of the secrets end up endangering the people she loves, she and her family have to run for their lives. In the process, they become entangled in the biggest secret in the world, a secret that changes everything.Gillian isn't going to be happy when she finds out what it is.GILLIAN'S EYE is a semi-dystopian novel set in an alternate present where things have gone even less well than they have here. It contains lesbians, psi abilities, politics, mad science, angry activism, unpleasant deaths, love, motherhood, televangelists, and nine-foot-tall insectoid aliens. And secrets.

An unprecedented look at the evolution of American police, from filling their intended role as peacekeepers and guardians of citizen rights to calling themselves—and acting primarily as—"law enforcement officers."As accusations of police misconduct and racial bias increasingly dominate the media, The Police in a Free Society: Safeguarding Rights While Enforcing the Law takes an unflinching look at the police, the communities they serve, and the politicians who direct them. Author Todd Douglas, a veteran state police commander, exposes the occurrences of police misconduct and incompetence as well as incidences of charlatans who intentionally inflame racial tensions with the police for their own political or financial gain. Readers will better understand what police officers must deal with on a daily basis, grasp the role of lawmakers in keeping faith with the public, and appreciate the tremendous challenges that police leaders face in attempting to reverse recent trends and shore up public confidence in police officers. This is a rare glimpse into the often-ugly reality of what happens on America's streets, with insights gained from the perspective of the cop and suspect alike.
