This devastating book illuminates America's gun culture - its manufacturers, dealers, buffs, and propagandists - but also offers concrete solutions to our national epidemic of death by firearm. It begins with an account of a crime that is by now almost commonplace: on December 16, 1988, 16-year-old Nicholas Elliot walked into his Virginia high school with a Cobray M-11/9 and several hundred rounds of ammunition tucked in his backpack. By day's end, he had killed one teacher and severely wounded another.

Dive into the intricate world of Secret Passage, an exceptional murder mystery novel by the imaginative Fergus Hume. The story unfolds as a peculiarly wealthy old woman is found brutally murdered, leaving no trace of a clue to identify the killer.

With every character having secrets to hide and identities to protect, the clues lead to dead ends, keeping the suspense alive until the very last page. (Summary by Dawn Larsen and J.M. Smallheer)
