The second novel featuring recovering psychotic DC Fiona Griffiths opens with as intriguing a pair of murders as you could imagine. Firstly part of a human leg is discovered in a woman's freezer bagged up like a joint of pork. Other similarly gruesome discoveries follow throughout a cosy Cardiff suburb with body parts turning up in kitchens garages & potting sheds. & while the police are still literally putting the pieces together concluding that they all belong to a teenage girl killed some ten years earlier parts of another body suddenly start appearing but this time discarded carelessly around the countryside clearly very shortly after the victim
- a man
- was killed. Mysteries don't come much more macabre or puzzling than this. Who were the two victims & what connection could they have shared that would result in this bizarre double-discovery? But that's only half the story. The most gruesome moments are much more about Fiona & her curious mental state. There is a complex & very clever double mystery here & what makes the story unique is the parallel unraveling of Fiona's own mystery & it's her voice established precisely in the first book but given even freer rein here that makes it so compelling.

Bestselling author Rob Bell returns with a provocative new book which gets to the heart of questions about life & death. His perspective encapsulated by his famous slogan love wins will surprise & challenge both Christians & atheists & will inspire people of all faiths & none. Millions of Christians have struggled with how to reconcile Gods love & Gods judgement: Has God created billions of people over thousands of years only to select a few to go to heaven & everyone else to suffer forever in hell? Is this acceptable to God? How is this good news"? Troubling questions-so troubling that many have lost their faith because of them. Others only whisper the questions to themselves fearing or being taught that they might lose their faith & their church if they ask them out loud. But what if these questions trouble us for good reason? What if the story of heaven & hell we have been taught is not in fact what the Bible teaches? What if what Jesus meant by heaven hell & salvation are very different from how we have come to understand them? What if it is God who wants us to face these questions? Author pastor & innovative teacher Rob Bell presents a deeply biblical vision for rediscovering a richer grander truer & more spiritually satisfying way of understanding heaven hell God Jesus salvation & repentance. The result is the discovery that the "good news" is much much better than we ever imagined. Love wins." ...
