Nero's: Dinner and a song
My husband and I went to Nero's a couple of weeks ago and had the best time! Sometimes, it can be hard to find truly excellent service in the Northwoods. It is there at Nero's. Our waitress was outstanding! Moreso, the owners are terrific people. It was our first time dining at Nero's and we felt as though we were old friends. The owner Patty greeted us at the door with a warm smile, seated us, and before our dinner was over she was providing the piano bar entertainment. What a treat! Patty's talant is first class - why is she not on Broadway I don't know. There were a number of people in the restaurant and bar - everyone seemed to really enjoy themselves. The icing on the cake was when Patty sang "Sweet Bay James" - our favorite song! I have never heard anyone sing it better - really!
We did not get the chance to see her husband - he is the chef! Food was great!
Nero's ad description " A Northwoods Dining experience with a touch of urban flair" (TRUE)
The outside of the building looks like a classic supper club, however, inside - the interior has been decorated with a look that is trendy, vintage, & swanky. I love the collection of vintage martini sets.
It has been a long time since I have had this much fun at a restaurant and felt so at home. I highly recommend this place - Call ahead - Patty does not sing every night.
**The bathrooms were adorable!
Favorite Dish: Polenta - (sausage was outstanding! Grilled tuna - perfect! Salmon Vesuvio - really good

How to Transform a Costume Jewelry Pin into a Pendant
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Costume jewelry is fun to wear, but at a certain point, you might not know what to do with your old pieces. Learn how to transform a costume jewelry pin into a pendant from Candace Jedrowicz and change the way you think about jewelry craft ideas forever.
In just three simple steps you can completely change a pin and make it a fashionable pendant. Add beads to the pin back and clasp it shut. Fold a chain in half and slide it so the loop shows. Guide the rest of the wire through the loop and tighten the chain. Attach a charm to the pin in the space between the two strands and wear your piece with pride. You won't believe how easy it is to create a cool pendant out of items you already have in your jewelry box.
For a step-by-step photo tutorial of this project, check out Repurposed Jewelry Pendant.

Du Bois-Mandela-Rodney Postdoctoral Fellow
Heidi Morse is the 2014/15 Du Bois-Mandela-Rodney Postdoctoral Fellow. Her primary areas of specialization are nineteenth-century African American rhetoric and "black classicism," or black adaptations of ancient Greek and Roman literature, art, and rhetoric. Related interdisciplinary research interests include post-Civil War African American education, race and gender in American visual and print culture, history and theory of classical receptions, and nineteenth- and twentieth-century U.S. poetry. Heidi received her Ph.D. in Literature and Feminist Studies in August 2014 from the University of California, Santa Cruz, where she also taught courses in Latin language. She was awarded a dissertation year fellowship in 2013-14 from the Institute for Humanities Research at UC Santa Cruz for her dissertation entitled Minding "Our Cicero": Nineteenth-Century African American Women's Rhetoric and the Classical Tradition, which she is now revising into a book manuscript.
Michigan Society of Fellows Post-Doctoral Scholar
Elizabeth Hinton, an assistant professor in DAAS, recently completed her graduate work in United States History at Columbia University. A Ford Foundation Fellow, her research contextualizes the rise of mass incarceration in the late twentieth century by considering the critical but understudied shift from a national agenda premised on community action and combating unemployment as a means to address socio-economic inequality, to an agenda premised on repressing crime, disorder, and other manifestation of that inequality in the decades after the civil rights movement. As a history of the War on Crime and the War on Drugs, Hinton's work contributes to debates about the persistence of poverty and racial inequality in the United States and draws our attention to the federal government's role in sustaining punitive policy that first emerged in the 1960s. From 2008 to 2011 Hinton served as the Managing Editor of Souls: A Critical Journal of Black Politics, Culture, and Society and co-edited The New Black History: Revisiting the Second Reconstruction (Palgrave Macmillan, 2011) with the late Manning Marable. Hinton earned her B.A. in American Studies from New York University's Gallatin School of Individualized Study in 2005. (email: email@example.com)
Department of Afroamerican and African Studies Research Fellow
Reighan Gillam received her Ph.D. from the Department of Anthropology at Cornell University. Her dissertation, "The Revolution Will Be Televised: Afro-Brazilian Media Producers in São Paulo, Brazil" documents the work of the TV da Gente (Our TV) television network, hailed as the first network in Brazil to include equal racial representation as part of its mission. She argues that media workers at TV da Gente extended the field of racial politics from the state and NGOs to the mediated arena of commercial television by producing images of Afro-Brazilians that deviated from and opposed mainstream public representations of blackness. Overall, her dissertation contends that commercial television acts as a new site of and resource for black cultural politics in Brazil. Her work has been supported by Sage Fellowships from Cornell University, a Five College Fellowship at Mt. Holyoke College, Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) fellowships, and a National Endowment for the Humanities Summer Institute Fellowship. Her work will be published in Watching While Black: Centering the Television of Black Audiences (Rutgers University Press 2013) and in the Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Ethnic Studies.

Important 1793 S-11c Large Cent1793 1C Wreath Cent--Lettered Edge--AU50 NGC. S-11c, R.3. Heavy clash marks are visible in the obverse fields, including much of AMERICA from the forehead down through the field to about chin level. Only a few Wreath cents were struck on lettered edge blanks. The majority of those known have Vine and Bars edge types. Among those of the Sheldon-11 die marriage, S-11a have the Vine and Bars edge type, S-11b have a lettered edge followed by two leaves, and S-11c have a lettered edge followed by a single leaf, such as ONE HUNDRED FOR A DOLLAR [leaf]. Mostly smooth surfaces exhibit medium brown color, mixed with pale orange, having once been cleaned and retoned. The overall eye appeal is such, however, that NGC placed this in a primary holder from their service. EAC 15.(Registry values: P4) (NGC ID# 223J, PCGS# 1350)

"Piknikan" (Picnic Grove)
We discovered a picnic grove by accident. We left our car in the open field infront of Bayview Accommodation For Staff and guests of Pagbilao Power Plant. We decided to walk upon seeing the narrow road ahead. We asked the security guard of Bayview for directions to the coast. We obviously looked like strangers in the place so locals stared at us with curious looks. Along the way, we met Mang Mario, a local who was going to the "aplaya" (beach). He smiled at us and asked where we were going. Hubby told him we just wanted to have an ocular survey of the coastline. He was going to the beach to have some fresh air and to check on his fishing boat. He led us to a shortcut through a private fishpond. There was a "piknikan" (picnic grove) between the fishpond and the beach. He introduced hubby and I to the caretaker, Aling Linda, and told her we were just passing though their place to have a good view of the coastline. Since it was very hot, hubby and Mang Mario stood under the canopy of trees. I thought the trees were "camachile" dwarfed by the sand, but Mang Mario said they are called "aroma" trees. According to Aling Linda, "aroma" is the same kind as the tree from which the branches with thorns were formed into a crown and put on Jesus Christ's head. (I later researched on aroma trees and learned that its scientific name is acacia farnesia and it is mostly found in the beach area.)
I gathered that tourists who go island hopping usually go there to rest and have a picnic. On early mornings, fresh fish can be bought from the fishermen at nearby "apalaya". The fish can then be grilled for the picnic. Picnic tables are rented out for only P50.

Fishing Village @ The "Aplaya"
From the picnic grove, we saw fishing bancas neatly lined up in the "aplaya' (beach). Mang Mario, who himself owns a fishing banca told us that the fishermen have already arrived from their early morning fishing, and have already sold their catch to the traders. We saw some already cleaning up their boats and hanging their nets. He tipped us to go there before sunrise if we would like to have some shots of the scene.
We learned that tourists who like to get cheap boats for island hopping usually go to that side of the "aplaya" in Brgy. Bantigue "Ibaba" to negotiate with the fishermen. Boat rental is from P800-1,000 depending on destination(s).

"Haunted House"
We were looking for an inactive beach resort which hubby's photo buddy said was a nice site for photo shoot. It reportedly had nice rocks and mangroves which make good foregrounds for seascapes. When I asked some locals for directions, I was surprised when the teenaged girls told me it is just infront of the haunted house we passed by the road. Stunned, I asked hubby if he saw a house that looked haunted; he said it must be the big, old house. We drove back to the place; I thought the girls were referring to an old wooden period-style house, but we saw a big, unpainted and unfinished 2-story house instead. It didn't look eerie from the outside, but hubby and I decided not to go down from the car anymore to see the beachfront.
We asked around. There were conflicting stories. Some said there were really testimonials of sounds and sightings of people in the house, often on full moon. Others said the people sighted/heard were actually lovers meeting in the house. When our grandson heard the stories, he wanted to go inside the haunted house, but we rejected his wish because he is psychically sensitive and we were afraid of what he'll see/ experience there.

We transitioned to the Edubrite LMS from an old LMS after researching learning management systems for over 3 years. We could not be happier with the ease of use, lms features and capabilities, customer service during and after the transition, the Edubrite team's willingness to consider and add new features and integration options, lms functionality on all web browsers, reporting features, CMS capabilities, ability to add microsites, integration with WebEx and GoToMeeting, etc. You name it, and they've got it! We have enjoyed working with Edubrite! And, we are certainly enjoying our new learning management system!Kristy Thomson, Director of Education at www.hthu.net
We were essentially forced to move from our original LMS after five years when they stopped supporting an older version we used. Our LMS is the single most important relationship in our business and the thought of changing was daunting even though we were long overdue. We started by identifying nine companies and over the course of several months of interviews and testing we narrowed the choice to EduBrite and one other company. While we knew any change would be an upgrade, EduBrite has exceeded our expectations in a number of ways: the platform is very flexible and we found many of the other LMS's would require our "square peg" to fit their "round hole"; the customization is incredible; customers have transitioned well; and all of this at a very reasonable cost. In summary, I would strongly recommend EduBrite..Keith Winsor, President at Academy Medical Systems
We recently implemented EduBrite's LMS, and could not be happier! They made the entire process easy, and consistently provide outstanding and fast support as well as individualized training. Their staff took the time to really understand our organization and how we offer our online trainings/resources to our learners, and helped us clean up and simplify our system. EduBrite has saved us much time and frustration - I have absolutely no regrets about switching to their LMS.Dora Rowe, Creative Director at Kids Included Together
My company has been using Edubrite for about 2 years now. They have been instrumental in the training and development of our 250+ technicians and 50+ managers. We provide new hire training, OSHA required safety training and continuing education for all. There is a short learning curve but the support they give you makes it incredibly easy. They are constantly make tweaks and improvements that make the system even more efficient. I looked at quite a few LMS in my search to find the right one. Edubrite can hang with other platforms for a fraction of what the others charge. 10 out of 10.Aaron Allison, Director of Training and Quality Control at White Communications LLC/National Directv Contractor

E-Cigarettes as a Christmas gift appears to be a new trend this year. It seems many Chattanoogans have been cashing in,
but how much do we really know about this trendy stocking stuffer?
At Vapor Tonics customers, owner Ben Connally says the e-cigarette liquids come with or without nicotine and contain three
other ingredients-propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin and food flavoring. "We pre-order all of our base mixes from one of
the biggest liquid distributors in the U.S, They give us all of our nicotine."
But while these customers puff up, some federal agencies aren't so sure about the new devices.
The FDA's website explains that the safety of e-cigarettes have not been fully studied. Consumers of e-Cigarette products currently have no way of knowing: "whether e-cigarettes are safe for their intended use, how much nicotine or other potentially harmful chemicals are being inhaled during use, or if there are any benefits associated with using these products."
Some customers boast of the benefits. "I definitely feel a lot healthier and I don't cough anymore. It's definitely a lot healthier," says Jordan Skaggs.
The FDA reports that they do not regulate e-Cigarettes that contain nicotine because they don't claim a health-related use.
While the jury is still out on those benefits, Conally says one thing is certain: e-Cigarettes are cheaper for pack-a-day smokers that typically spend about forty dollars a week.
"This costs six dollars and 25 cents and it will last a pack a day smoker about a week," adds Connally.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing.
Didn't enjoy this nearly as much as her other books. Set in the 1970's, I felt it was cliched, the characters were weak and followed stereotypes. Struggled to bother finishing it, and I've never felt that way about this author before.

5.0 out of 5 stars "The hardest battles didn't take place on the streets; they happened inside the squad room",
Roman Clodia (London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cop Town (Paperback)
Atlanta, 1974: a police killer is loose on the streets of Atlanta - and three female officers have their own battles to fight...
This is a stand-alone novel from Slaughter set in the same geographical territory as her Sara Linton/Will Trent series but in a very different time. The flashback parts of Criminal showed us the battles fought by women in the 1960s to be taken seriously and this book makes that struggle central to the story.
It's now 1974 and this book is as much a social commentary as it is a gripping crime story. At its heart are Maggie who comes from a cop family, Kate who is the new girl, and Gail the raddled undercover officer. I liked the way this isn't an easy `female buddies' story: the tensions and divisions between these women add an air of authenticity to the story and make it far more interesting than it might have been in less skilful hands.
What is shocking is the institutionalised sexism, racism and homophobia that is socially acceptable: women routinely have their breasts and bodies fondled by their police colleagues as they walk through the workplace and know that there is no option but to put up and shut up. The quasi-apartheid which splits black and white officers crosses the gender divide so that the white female officers leave the locker room before the `coloured girls' take their place. That this is only 40 years ago is phenomenal, and Slaughter depicts it all with a cool and clinical eye which allows the facts of the story to speak for themselves.
So this is an engrossing crime story but what lifts it above the mass of crime out there is the intelligent depiction of a society on the brink of change. Slaughter has really matured as a writer - this is a fabulous read. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not for the fainthearted!,
This review is from: Cop Town (Hardcover)
It's man's man's man's world. A white man's world, that is. Atlanta, 1974. A cop killer is on the loose in a city that is rife with racism, sexism, anti-Semitism and homophobia. "Cop Town" follows rookie Kate Murphy in her first week on the job. She is partnered with Maggie Lawson, who followed her uncle and brother to the force and keeps trying to prove her worth to them. When the women are sidelined in the search for Atlanta's cop killer, they decide to pursue their own line of investigation...
Karin Slaughter did a marvellous job of portraying the atmosphere and zeitgeist of 1970s Atlanta. The in-your-face racism and sexism are abhorrent but at the same time a testament to the authenticity with which Slaughter writes.
The book contains very strong language. It was a little too much for my liking to be honest but I thought it added to the story and it actually fits the characters. It might not be everyone's cup of tea though so please be warned.
It's not only the language that keeps shocking. There are some rather violent scenes and a few unexpected twists, one of which had me startled while reading.
"Cop Town" is definitely not for the fainthearted! It's raw, brutal and angry, very angry. But it's also a page-turner and I literally couldn't put it down. If you like fast-paced, thrilling books, pick up "Cop Town" and you won't be disappointed.
I should also mention the cover as images simply don't do it any justice. The cover is a fabulous shiny silver, which I just love!

4.0 out of 5 stars ENGROSSING, SUSPENSEFUL AND ENJOYABLE!,
This review is from: Cop Town (Hardcover)
Cop Town by Karin Slaughter, one of the best crime novelists in America, is a standalone police procedural set in 1974, which takes the reader into the world of the Atlanta Police Department during one of its worst periods when it was ravaged by cultural and gender dissension. It was a time when women were beginning to assert themselves and make their voices heard beyond the four walls of their homes.
The story focuses on two young female cops: Kate Murphy and Maggie Lawson. Kate is a young Jewish widow from a wealthy family. After her husband was killed in Vietnam, she joined the police force. Maggie comes from a family of cops. Both her brother Jimmy and uncle Terry served as cops but instead of welcoming her into their ranks, she is being scorned and taunted.
It is not an easy thing to be a female police officer. Kate and Maggie face all sorts of obstacles and challenges. Though they come from different family background, they have one thing in common - they are both tough. When Kate joined the force, she is assigned to partner with Maggie, whose brother Jimmy's partner was killed a few days earlier by a serial killer who targeted cops, taking the toll to five within the last few months. All the five police officers have been killed with bullet on their heads. The whole police force is jittery, and no one seems to be having any clue about the killer whom the police dubbed "The Shooter." But the killer calls himself "Foxy."
It is up to Kate and Maggie to get to the bottom of the mystery. And sometimes, it is not what it seems. There are too many loose ends. And things begin to heat up when Kate is stalked by the killer. Cop Town by Karin Slaughter is not just another ordinary mystery crime thriller. It is a deeply engrossing story, full of suspense and mystery that readers will remember for long even after the last page is turned.

5.0 out of 5 stars The ugly side of the '70s,
BookBunny (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cop Town (Kindle Edition)
I love Karin Slaughter, I've read all her books and she's one of my favourite authors. So when Cop Town was due for release I preordered it without knowing what the book was about. With your favourite author, you don't care, right?
From the first couple of pages I was doubting whether this book would do it for me. It's set in Atalanta during the '70 where racism, inequality, human right abuse and intimidation were rife. The book focuses around rookie beat cop Kate Murphy who gets partnered with Maggie Lawson on her first day during one of the Atlanta Police Department's greatest manhunts for a cop killer known simply as "the Shooter". Together Maggie and Kate decide to search for the Shooter themselves after Maggie's brother and fellow officer disappears leaving a note claiming he was responsible for all the cop deaths. This is a very dark book with abuse littered throughout the pages. Maggie herself regularly finds herself at the receiving end of her a Uncle Terry's fists on an almost daily basis, despite him bring a detective and central figure in the Atlanta Police Force. Maggie's helplessness is almost palpable and I many times wished I could just reach into the pages and guide Maggie away from her abusive life. This is despite the fact that she's a tough beat cop but lacks the confidence to stand up to the bullies. Overall, it's a fantastic book with crudeness, gore and misery peppered throughout. My initial concerns were totally unfounded. Karin Slaughter is an amazing author irrespective of what she writes.

I've been a huge fan of Karin Slaughter's for absolutely years. I loved her Grant County books with Sara Linton and Jeffrey Tolliver. And Will Trent is one of my favourite all time characters. I adore the man. I thought the 1970s scenes in 'Criminal' were totally fascinating, and am so chuffed that Karin Slaughter decided to explore this further.
Cop Town is set in 1975 in Atlanta. We get two very different women, as leads; Kate Murphy, a widowed newbie police officer and Maggie Lawson, who comes from a family of cops. Kate is in her first week and Maggie has been on the job for years. This is an environment where sexism, racism and every sort of ism is prevalent and explicit. It is refreshing, in a weird sort of way and at the same time, brutal and cruel. Women are not really welcome, in the macho, patriarchal police force. Discrimination on account of race, gender and religion and class, are the norm. Kate is rather well-to-do, so there are class differences added to this complicated mix.
'The Shooter' is on the prowl in the city, targetting cops indiscriminately. The book starts with Jimmy Lawson carrying his shot and dying partner to Grant County hospital Accident and Emergency. Jimmy is Maggie's brother. She soon finds herself drawn into the murder investigation and doing a spot of detective work, along with Kate. Who is 'The Shooter' and will Kate be able to last the week in the harsh police environment?
WOW!!! This book totally and completely exceeded my expectations. I knew it would be fantastic and it was. Strong female leads plus a gritty and exciting plot. I loved both Kate and Maggie, and was willing Kate to find her feet and bond with her partner. I was drawn into the dark world of 1970s Atlanta and didn't want it to end. I wanted to go back in time and to be there. I wanted to slap the sexist police officers and stand up to the nasty bullying.
To anyone who hasn't read a Karin Slaughter, you really should. She NEVER disappoints. This is an excellent introduction, if you are a complete newbie to Karin and her books.

This review is from: Cop Town (Kindle Edition)
After some trepidation over a change of era, a lack of my favourite characters and a slightly negative review I saw here i have to say its just as good as her writing always is. I am gripped and I was soon gritting my teeth in annoyance at one character at least (this is some of the joy of a slaughter novel), she manages to get shades in her characters meaning that instead of good guys and bad guys there are people who frustrate and anger you but also make you wish and hope for them.
New to Karin Slaughter? Don't worry this book is not part of the series so no need to hook back and start from the beginning you can start here.
There are bound to be uncomfortable moments and perspectives portrayed in this book, being the deep south in the 70's. In UK I have seen many TV series recently using this as an excuse to be 'non pc' not here, we have a real good look at what those times meant to the people (like me) who lived in them.
I wonder if it was Amanda and Evelyn's back story in a previous book that set Karin on this enterprise, or perhaps her seemingly intuitive understanding of when the time is right to switch things up, much as I miss the regulars I have been down the road with other authors where a cracking tale with regular characters suddenly becomes a seemingly interminable rehashing of character traits NOT KARIN. So while a few fans of Will (who couldn't be one?) are bound to feel disappointment at the departure I for one am happy to go on a new journey.
Any way I'm so hooked on this bunch I hope it's not a stand alone but the beginning of a new series. Please

5.0 out of 5 stars Unique Crime Fiction, Oustanding Novel!,
Maxine (Booklover Catlady) (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cop Town (Kindle Edition)
I am shamefully admitting that whilst crime is my most read genre, this is the first time I have read a book by the talented Karin Slaughter. I know, I know, there is no excuse and I see that I have been missing out after reading this outstanding and breathtaking novel. Never fear, I shall be reading every single book she has written after this one.
Cop Town is unlike ANY crime novel I have ever read before. It's an absolute stand out with it's plot, characters, message and depth. For me this was a six star read. It's so well written that it makes many other novels I have read in the past pale in comparison.
It's 1974, Atlanta, USA. The Atlanta police force has only recently been advertising for women to join the police force, so they are few and far between and they don't get it easy. Rampant sexism, racism, bullying, taunting and downright unethical behaviour is what the women in the Atlanta Police Department have to put up with. Tension runs high in the ranks between men and women, white and black police officers. This is not a place of equality or equal opportunity. You need to be tough, really tough to survive as a woman here.
Kate Murphy joins the ranks and is quickly faced with the hard initiations that every woman before her has faced. There is not many women, outnumbered on every corner and Kate has to prove herself to the women and men around her. Many won't even give her a chance.
Prejudice and fear is everywhere.
Kate's character is complex and surprising, just when you think you know what she is all about, she shows another element of her personality, there is more than meets the eye. She is thrown into some incredibly difficult and harrowing police situations from her first day on the job, many question if she will be back for more on day two. She's not a quitter though our Kate, oh no, she's certainly not that. You will like her a lot.
Then we have Maggie Lawson, who has been with the department for years longer than Kate. Maggie has followed in the very big footsteps of her brother and Uncle who are present also in the department. Again, Maggie is a character that is complex, surprising at times and so very well written. Heck, all the characters in this book are exceptional.
As white, female Police Officers these two women have a lot to prove. The men in the Atlanta Police Department in the 1970's did not always stick to procedure or protocol, in fact it seems just the opposite, it's as though there are unwritten rules everywhere.
The plot is tight, we get tastes of the private lives of Maggie and Kate as well as being on the job with them. Someone is killing Police Officers in Atlanta and Kate and Maggie figure that they have just as much chance of finding the killer as any of their male counterparts. They are jeered at for even thinking this way. This was an environment that set up harsh, impossible situations for them. They are risking a lot in teaming up and going after the killer that everyone wants to catch.
The prose is stunning, every single word is exceptional, I was literally transported back to the 1970's, it was painted with such clever descriptive paragraphs and emotion running through the sentences that you are just swept along. From the moment I started reading this novel I could not put it down, each word flowed so well and the plot got more and more interesting, at times it's dark, heck it's just so incredibly good.
There are some really clever, unexpected things thrown up along the way that I did not expect, some shocking, deep issues being tackled at the same time. This book does not hold back, it's gritty, in your face and challenging.
I can't rave enough, whether you are already a Karin Slaughter fan or not, read Cop Town and make up your own mind. It's a stunning work of fiction. Have I raved enough? I hope so. Happy reading.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very interesting read....,
Best Crime Books "Best Crime Books" (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cop Town (Kindle Edition)
I was surprised to realise that this was a stand-alone novel by Karin Slaughter. I was also quite excited at the synopsis as she has gone for the same geographical setting but in the 1970's. It features Maggie Lawson and Kate Murphy as our two main characters. It took me a little longer than her usual books to settle in, but I wasn't surprised as this wasn't part of a series that I had become familiar with over time. As police officers in the Atlanta are in the seventies things are certainly not easy on them. Karin Slaughter has made the book authentic and believable from the outset. I certainly realised very quickly that working in this line of work back then, was tantamount to being a wanted criminal.
Out of the two characters Kate is introduced as the new girl to the police force. With Maggie having experience as well as having her brother and Uncle on the force, she is naturally the one Kate looks to for advice. Maggie seemed initially like the force to be reckoned with but Kate developed as a character and by the end of the book I found myself hoping that Karin may well continue this theme on featuring both these women.
The main storyline features the Atlanta police force launching a massive manhunt for a killer known simply as The Shooter. There are some absolutely awful characters featuring in this story but I guess for that era they were pretty much the norm! What this latest Slaughter novel does is highlight the serious issues that were around back then such as racism, sexism and homophobia. That aside the story is weaved with intellect and keeps the reader guessing until the later part of the book.
Although I wouldn't say this was my favourite KS book, it kept me intrigued with its setting, characters, story and pace. As ever she has shown how versatile an author she is and has given her readers another set of characters that they will no doubt want to see more of (I can always hope). A great read which I think many fans will be pleasantly surprised by.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hope this is the first of more to come,
This review is from: Cop Town (Kindle Edition)
I'll be honest and say it took me a while to get into this book, I think maybe because it is an era that I don't understand, I'm English so there is a cultural difference as well as a historical one and also there are a huge cast of characters early on and I'm rubbish with names.
This said, it is a fantastic read, a writer I know once told me he doesn't always like books by female authors as they spend too much time pushing how hard it is for women. It is something I've though of a lot when reading and whilst I might agree with him sometimes as the oh poor woman has it tough thing is pushed, this is a book set in a time when women really did have to be better just to get equality and any level of acceptance in the workplace. The book does not show these women as flawless in anyway. They are as screwed up as anyone but in justifiable ways that I think most people will relate to.
The story rolls out beautifully with a proper ending (to please those who don't like the Z for Zachariah type cliffhanger endings that could go anywhere). The moment of peril ending had me skipping bits as there is just a bit too much detail, me having worked out the whodunnit bit but it was a mighty good moment of peril nonetheless.
The main characters are enjoyable and I hope that this is the first of a series featuring the girls in blue. If so I look forward to the next installment with baited breath.

5.0 out of 5 stars outstanding,
Nick Brett (Wiltshire, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cop Town (Kindle Edition)
I think this is the best thing Karin Slaughter has written.
It is a stand -alone novel set in 1974 Atlanta. There is a cop killer story here but it is set against a changing world full of sexism, homophobia, racism and corruption. Into this maelstrom we have a new female police officer who will be lucky if she survives her first week, let alone her first day…
While 1974 Atlanta is peeled open like an onion we have very real characters placed before us, mainly female. They don't bond and become a kind of Cagney and Lacey but react to each-other as new colleagues would – trying to see if they have things in common or will be a liability to each-other in a job where their lives may depend on their partners.
The atmosphere seeps out of this one, whether it is the oppression of the female officers or a culture where semi-sober male officers are unwilling to embrace any sort of change. Interesting too are the diverse attitudes – the fresh new and innocent and the cynical and jaded – they play off against each-other beautifully. This is a hard and gritty novel, compelling in the detail that sucks you in and makes you 'feel' Atlanta in 1974.
It was compelling and is highly recommended

Cop Town by Karin Slaughter

SARANAC LAKE - The North Country Community College Board of Trustees approved its 2009-10 budget last week.
Next year's budget is approximately $12.7 million - a 0.03 percent increase in spending over this year. The budget also includes a 4.8 percent increase to student tuition.
"That's about $170 more for students," said Interim President Fred Smith. College Vice President Ed Trathen said at least 85 percent of students will be able to cover the increase through tuition assistance programs and grants.
With the board's approval, the budget heads to Franklin County Legislators and the Essex County Board of Supervisors - the college's two major sponsors. Those lawmakers will decide on the budget in July, and then in August the budget goes before the SUNY Board of Trustees for final approval.
The budget includes a request for an additional $50,000 from each county, a result of a $45,000 loss in state aid this year. Smith noted that North Country will lose $153,000 in state aid in 2009-10.
"We are getting less from the state, we're asking more from the students and we're asking more from the counties," Smith said. "And that's what you see in the great State of New York; the burden is getting passed to the local level."
The current fiscal year's budget has been reduced by about $300,000, due in large part to the elimination of two positions. The school also replaced several retirees with adjuncts.
Smith also told the board last week that a bid has been awarded for architectural and engineering plans for Phase I of a multi-million dollar upgrade to the Saranac Lake campus. The first phase includes a new student center, library, classroom space and upgrades to the Sparks Athletic Center.
JMZ Architects was the lowest bidder and the choice of the project's steering committee. The Glens Falls-based company placed a bid at $177,200.
