| Synopsis: |
A little book that takes a quirky look at the world of driving and finds that, universally, the law is an ass! "The Little Book of Loony Driving Laws" reveals over 250 loony driving laws and rules - some current, some ancient. Did you know that: in Australia all cars parked in public places must be locked but their windows must also be lowered by no more than the width of a hand!; in Bermuda, hire cars are banned?; in Montreal, Canada, drivers cannot park their cars blocking their own driveways?; until 2000 in Luxembourg a driver was required to sound his horn when overtaking another road user? "The Little Book of Loony Driving Laws" is the perfect antidote to road rage and car congestion. |

Scarpetta
Kay Scarpetta takes up an assignment in New York City, where the NYPD has asked her to examine an injured patient in a psychiatric ward. The handcuffed and chained patient, Oscar Bane, has specifically asked for her. The story he has to tell turns out to be one of the most bizarre she has ever heard. Is his paranoid tale true? The only thing Scarpetta knows for certain is that a woman has been tortured and murdered, and that more violent deaths will follow.

Just What I Always Wanted
What do Mount Kilimanjaro, a hundred-million-dollar marble mansion, a pair of handcuffs, a jar of walnut jam, the bleeding heart of a dead elk, an incontinent donkey, two Scottish terriers called Negus and Stasi, a fur-lined jockstrap, and the fossilized bowel movement of a turtle have in common? They have all been offered as birthday presents to some rather famous people. This book presents a curiously compelling collection of celebrity birthday gifts from the 16th century to the present day.

Fern
