  • The Murals

    William Bayer

    Hardcover (Severn House Publishers, Dec. 3, 2019)
    In this multi-layered psychological mystery, photographer Jason Poe is transfixed by a disturbing set of murals he encounters in the attic of an abandoned house, and resolves to uncover the secret behind them. "The murals hit me hard. First came terror, then awe. It was only after I’d taken them in that I began to feel their immense power." Jason Poe, a former war photographer, has been breaking into abandoned houses for an art project to document what previous tenants have left behind. One night he finds more than expected when he ascends to an attic and is confronted by a haunting set of murals. The murals cover all four walls of the cramped space and hypnotise Jason. Convinced there’s an important story behind them, he embarks upon a quest to identify their creator and uncover their meaning. To do so Jason recruits several friends, including Joan Nguyen, a reporter for Calista Times-Dispatch. As the team delve deeper they uncover a mystery involving accusations of satanism, police corruption, a scandal involving a wealthy Calista family, a series of contemporary arson attacks . . . and an enigmatic patient in a Swiss psychiatric clinic.

Strategies are determined both by the subject matter to be taught and the characteristics of the student. While today’s schools encourage creativity, this was not always the case.And in this Book International law refers to the set of rules that govern relations between states, and as a result serves as the framework for stable and organized international relations. International law is dinguished by the fact that it is primarily applicable to countries rather than to private citizens. In some cases national law can become international law when treaties delegate national jurisdiction to supranational tribunals. This occurs with the European Court of Human Rights and the International Criminal Court. Treaties such as the Geneva Conventions may require national law to conform to its statutes.
