Amidst prevailing debates that construe rationality and emotionality as polar opposites, this book explores the manner in which emotions shape not only prevailing conceptions of rationality, but also culture in general terms, making room for us to speak of an 'emotional culture' specific to late-modern societies. Presenting case studies involving cultural artefacts, narratives found in fictional and non-fictional literature and television programs, speech patterns and self-talk, fashion, and social networking practices, The Emotions and Cultural Analysis sheds light on the relationship between emotion and culture and the ways in which emotion can be harnessed for the purposes of cultural analysis.

In the summer of 1930, two federal prohibition agents were murdered. The first died in a hail of buckshot on a dark street in Aguilar, Colorado. Six weeks later, the second agent and his vehicle disappeared on a sunny afternoon along a New Mexico state highway south of Raton. During their fifty-year search, the authors sought answers to why no one was ever prosecuted for these crimes. This is the first book to correlate the two murders, identify how and why they occurred, and name the parties involved and the roles they played. Drawing from first-hand interviews and National Archives files, this book lifts the shadows along the trail as the light of truth is shown upon this mystery. Two federal agents can now rest in peace.
Spirit Pass: Revised and Expanded Edition is the compilation of Jessica Stone Novellas #1-3 plus a bonus chapter of the upcoming installment in the series titled A Soul Darker Than Midnight. More than four out of five indigenous women report they have been victims of violence. For decades, indigenous women have faced a murder rate higher than the national average. It is part of the spectrum of violence experienced by Native women. This fictional collection of novellas delves into these types of missing and murder cases. It shows what obstacles exist for tribal law enforcement and the extent to which families will go, like using social media to track their missing person cases. That's because the utter lack of coordination between law enforcement agencies is failing to help the missing and murdered as well as their survivors. This is the tale of tribal Detective Sergeant Jessica (Medicine) Stone and her oftentimes partner, FBI Special Agent Casey Borgreve.
