Nina, a teen navigating a turbulent life, begins engaging in sex work near her absent parents' home.

Luke William Hunt is a philosophy professor and former FBI Special Agent. In Police Deception and Dishonesty, he evocatively illustrates how the police's widespread use of proactive deception and dishonesty is inconsistent with fundamental norms of political morality. Drawing on his experience, a range of literature, and case studies regarding interrogations, undercover operations, pretextual detentions, and other common scenarios, Hunt makes a compelling case that many proactive tactics erode public faith in the police institution and weaken the police's legitimacy.

Ravi Menon is the Institute of Policy Studies' 9th S R Nathan Fellow for the Study of Singapore. This book is an edited collection of his four IPS-Nathan Lectures, delivered in July 2021, and includes highlights of his question-and-answer segments with our virtual audience. Mr Menon examines how Singapore will come under pressure from four tectonic shifts altering the global landscape. Although still relevant, Singapore's guiding ethos of adaptation, meritocracy, and pragmatism may no longer be sufficient. To secure our future, we will need more innovation, inclusion, and inspiration. What does an innovative economy look like? What does it take to create a more inclusive society? What does it mean to be an inspiring nation? How does it all hold together in a refreshed Singapore Synthesis? The IPS-Nathan Lecture series was launched in 2014 as part of the S R Nathan Fellowship for the Study of Singapore. It seeks to advance public understanding and discussion of issues of critical national interest for Singapore.

Kay Farrow is devastated at the death of her mentor, Maddy Yamada, victim of a hit and run driver. But what looks like an accident turns out to be brutal murder. As she investigates, Kay is drawn into a decadent world of wealth and privilege, where a gun club provides a cover for acts of depravity.

When police discover the decapitated head of a young man with the body missing, they are shocked to learn it belongs to Tim Lovesey, a handsome prostitute from San Francisco's Polk Gulch. The area, rife with vice, prompts police to dismiss the murder as just another bizarre crime. However, Kay Farrow, a photographer working on a book about the Gulch's hustlers, becomes determined to investigate further. As an achromat with extreme color blindness, Kay’s unique vision shapes her perspective and enhances her photography skills. Her quest for justice leads her to an unsolved serial murder case that mirrors Tim's death, deeply affecting her as her father was involved in the original investigation, which ended in failure and his disgrace. Kay's pursuit of the truth introduces her to Tim's "uncle," who reveals intriguing details about Tim's past as a magician alongside his twin sister. As Kay delves deeper into the mysteries surrounding Tim's life and death, she confronts the dangers of her investigation, facing threats to her mental and physical safety. Her colorless vision reveals the darker shades of human emotions—lust, greed, jealousy, and desire—complicating her journey to uncover the truth behind Tim's tragic fate.
