A Grave Business (9780994457929)



A Grave Business is a mystery set in The French Quarter of New Orleans, Louisiana. Xavier and Lincoln are teenage street entertainers, tap dancing for tourists to earn extra cash in the school holidays. When Xavier's dad is accidentally sent an email that contains a cryptic code, the boys set out to unravel the mystery. They uncover a series of clues leading them across the famous Mississippi River to the local cemetery where they suspect a major crime is about to take place. The teenage detectives soon attract the attention of the notorious Neville brothers who do their best to scare them off, but Xav and Linc are determined to solve the case. The story has some mildly creepy moments with references to voodoo and midnight adventures amongst the crypts and graves. Xav's habit of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time puts them in danger on more than one occasion, and almost reveals their investigations to the crooks behind the scam. Can the boys figure out the connection between the red pick-up truck, the local antique shop and a series of odd advertisements in the newspaper before it's too late? A Grave Business hums along nicely, with short chapters and a number of plot twists and hair-raising chase scenes to keep older readers interested. Reviewed by Jane O'Connell

Current Antipsychotics (9783642257605)

Six decades after the serendipitous discovery of chlorpromazine as an antipsychotic and four decades after the launch of clozapine, the first atypical or second generation antipsychotic, psychopharmacology has arrived at an important crossroad. It is clear that pharmacological research and pharmaceutical development must now focus on complementary or even alternative mechanisms of action to address unmet medical needs, i.e. poorly treated domains of schizophrenia, improved acceptance by patients, better adherence to medication, safety in psychoses in demented patients, and avoiding cardiac and metabolic adverse effects. The first completely novel mechanisms evolving from our insights into the pathophysiology of psychotic disorders, especially the role of glutamatergic mechanisms in schizophrenia, are now under development, and further principles are on the horizon. This situation, in many respects similar to that when the initial second-generation antipsychotics became available, can b...
