How well do you know your children? And how well do they know you?
When Helen Whitmore's stepson brings home a new girlfriend one
evening, her already imperfect family begins to tip towards
breaking point. Diana is smart, beautiful, feisty and clearly out
to cause trouble. Then an old photograph resurfaces that threatens
to uncover a long-buried secret, one that Helen has taken great
care to keep hidden in the past. Only one person could have that
photograph - and she is dead. Helen immediately suspects that Diana
is connected somehow, but before she can confront her, Diana is
found dead and the entire family has motive. An absolutely
addictive, page-turning thriller perfect for Lisa Jewell, Liane
Moriarty and Louise Candlish. Readers love What I Never Told You:

Goodreads reviewer,
In recent years, evidence-based medicine (EBM), clinical governance
and professional accountability have become increasingly
significant in shaping the organisation and delivery of healthcare.
However, these notions all build upon and exemplify the idea of
human-centred, individual action. In this book, Dawn Goodwin
suggests that such models of practice exaggerate the extent to
which practitioners are able to predict and control the
circumstances and contingencies of healthcare. Drawing on
ethnographic material, Goodwin explores the way that 'action'
unfolds in a series of empirical cases of anaesthetic and intensive
care practice. Anaesthesia configures a relationship between
humans, machines and devices that transforms and redistributes
capacities for action and thereby challenges the figure of a
rational, intentional, acting individual. This book elucidates the
ways in which various entities (machines, tools, devices and
unconscious patients as well as healthcare practitioners)
participate, and how actions become legitimate and accountable.

A hilarious, irreverent, and touching account of one seriously
Christian girl's struggle to please any available savior. . . .
K. Dawn Goodwin's holy crusade to be the Lord's sexiest
spokesperson began at the tender--but far from innocent--age of
seven. And while she always thought Jesus was kinda hot, even He
could not quiet the avalanche of prepubescent lust and the burning
wish for a man to find her, like Bathsheba, comely enough to spy
on.
Crucified by soulless pretty girls and cruel jocks whose mission it
was to make her life hell on earth, adolescent Dawn, painfully
obsessed with her own ugliness, found slivers of sweet relief in
dry-humping the scrawniest guy on the wrestling team and scribbling
bodice rippers starring her favorite teacher. But, Praise Jesus, at
least her virginity was intact.
Until college, where, thanks to a seriously sculpted Jew, Dawn's
chastity crumbled like the Tower of Babylon. Her sex marathons kept
her shouting, "Hallelujah " but with her body image in apocalyptic
disarray, her future husband unable to faith-heal her as promised,
and the Bible threatening an extra-crispy afterlife, Dawn would
have to face down her demons. Which was okay, because they were
kinda hot too. . . .
