Then new evidence comes to light and confirms the team’s worst suspicions. Why were the children left in the house alone? Why is neither parent answering their phone? Were they kidnapped? Murdered? From the start, DI Fawley-still reeling from his own personal tragedy-knows that this house fire is the scene of a crime, not an accident. The mystery deepens when it becomes clear that the parents are nowhere to be found. It's Christmas in Oxford, and firefighters have pulled two children from the smoking ruin of their home. It's one of the most disturbing cases DI Adam Fawley has ever worked. DI Adam Fawley returns in the continuation of one of Britain’s most enduringly popular and mega-selling crime series as a ghastly house fire on Christmas Day launches an investigation that shocks a community.

She was a radical pragmatist and arguably the first woman "public philosopher" in the United States. Īn advocate for world peace, and recognized as the founder of the social work profession in the United States, in 1931 Addams became the first American woman to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. In 1920, she was a co-founder of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). In 1910, Addams was awarded an honorary master of arts degree from Yale University, becoming the first woman to receive an honorary degree from the school. Addams co-founded Chicago's Hull House, one of America's most famous settlement houses, providing extensive social services to poor, largely immigrant families. She was an important leader in the history of social work and women's suffrage in the United States. Laura Jane Addams (September 6, 1860 – May 21, 1935) was an American settlement activist, reformer, social worker, sociologist, public administrator, philosopher, and author.
