A Dark Room in Glitter Ball City : Murder, Secrets, and Scandal in Old Louisville
David Dominé
This true crime saga—with an eccentric Southern backdrop—introduces the reader to the story of a murder in a crumbling Louisville mansion and the decades of secrets and corruption that live within the old house’s walls. On June 18, 2010, police discover a body buried in the wine cellar of a Victorian mansion in Old Louisville. James Carroll, shot and stabbed the year before, has lain for 7 months in a plastic storage bin—his temporary coffin. Homeowner Jeffrey Mundt and his boyfriend, Joseph Banis, point the finger at each other in what locals dub The Pink Triangle Murder. On the surface, this killing appears to be a crime of passion, a sordid love tryst gone wrong in a creepy old house. But as author David Dominé sits in on the trials, a deeper story emerges: the struggle between hope for a better future on the one hand and the privilege and power of the status quo on the other.As the court testimony devolves into he-said/he-said contradictions, David draws on the confidences of neighbors, drag queens, and other acquaintances within the city's vibrant LGBTQ community to piece together the details of the case. While uncovering the many past lives of the mansion itself, he enters a murky underworld of gossip, neighborhood scandal, and intrigue. --Publisher's website.

College Geometry Using GeoGebra
William Fenton
"Several years ago, we co-authored the text College Geometry using The Geometer's Sketchpad®. In the time since then, friends and colleagues have expressed substantial interest in using our course materials with an alternative software package, GeoGebra®. Indeed, some reported to us that they have used the Sketchpad book with GeoGebra and have experienced good success. Spurred on by those reports, we began experimenting ourselves with this other option for geometry software. This new text is the result of our course experiences with GeoGebra. Of course, there are differences in commands and tools between the two software packages. Those differences imposed frequent re-wording and revising of the computer investigations. Further, the algebraic presentation used by GeoGebra required us to re-think many of the investigations to encourage students to grapple with the geometric content. The activities have been re-written to match GeoGebra, as have the portions of the text that discuss the specific software. However, the geometric content remains the same as our earlier text. We hope this new version of College Geometry will support students and instructors who desire a pedagogy that incorporates technology in an active, exploratory classroom"-- Provided by publisher.

Death Handed Down : A Mags O'Malley Mystery
Kathleen Breen
It’s the opening night of Hamlet at Shakespeare in the Park, and things go terribly wrong. One actor dies on stage; another goes missing. Maggie O’Malley, who is there to watch her great-niece’s acting debut, finds herself center stage in an altogether different revenge drama. An experienced researcher and genealogist, Maggie begins asking persistent questions that unearth family secrets long buried – secrets rooted in slavery at Farmington plantation, the theft of valuable papers, and shocking betrayal. The police have barely started investigating when another death draws Maggie further into the mystery. Using her skills – and her Irish gift of second sight – she discovers motives concealed in a trove of hand-written documents, fragments of the legacies of a 19th c. poet and a U. S. president. But the past is never past, especially in this small Kentucky town. With her own life in danger, Maggie persists, delving into every curious connection to piece together the mystery of multiple murders – death handed down through the generations. --Amazon.
