Nick Thompson is a young man finding his way in life. He returned to south Wales in the early autumn of 1970 in search of love, but discovered the girl of his dreams didn't love him. Things changed dramatically 6 months later when Nick made a substantial amount of money over night, by then he too had changed. Linda is doing the chasing now, and Nick discovers a previously unknown sly and devious side to her character. A trait he's more than happy to meet her head on with. Fighting his emotions the young man becomes involved in a murder case where he meets the colourful Beth Rhys, a white witch. They clash because Beth tells Nick a few home truths, and he in turn rubs her up the wrong way because of her beliefs. They discover more about one another than they'd wished for, which leads to some amusing confrontations. However, they share a common belief that drives them relentlessly forward—sometimes blindly, the glory of solving a one hundred year old murder.

Aren't You, Nick?

The Social Organization of Sexuality reports the complete results of the nation's most comprehensive representative survey of sexual practices in the general adult population of the United States. This highly detailed portrait of sex in America and its social context and implications has established a new and original scientific orientation to the study of sexual behavior. "The most comprehensive U.S. sex survey ever." —USA Today "The findings from this survey, the first in decades to provide detailed insights about the sexual behavior of a representative sample of Americans, will have a profound impact on how policy makers tackle a number of pressing health problems." —Alison Bass, The Boston Globe "A fat, sophisticated, and sperm-freezingly serious volume. . . . This book is not in the business of giving us a good time. It is in the business of asking three thousand four hundred and thirty-two other people whether they had a good time, and exactly what they did to make it so good." —Anthony Lane, The New Yorker New York Times Book Review Notable Book of the Year
