A serial killer thriller which will appeal to fans of Val McDermid, Mark Billingham, and James Patterson.
When mutilated corpses are discovered in one of Cardiff’s most exclusive suburbs it falls to Detective Inspector Jemima Huxley to find the killer before they have a chance to kill again.
On a personal level the case could not have come at a worse time as Huxley’s world is falling apart, and she is at an all-time low, self-harming just to feel in control of things. In this, the biggest case of her career, she struggles to focus on the facts and keep her emotions in check. Exhausted, disillusioned and at odds with some of her team, she begins to question her own judgement, as she comes to believe the victims have been selected to implicate an innocent person.
The investigation leads Huxley to uncover shocking secrets, so well hidden within middle-class suburbia that even those closest to the truth are unaware of the full extent of the deception or the danger they are in.
When Huxley finally realises who is responsible for the deaths it becomes a race against time to save the next victim.

Transforming From command and control scope to collaborative customer driven culture
The waterfall methodology isn’t at fault, is it merely the manifestation of a managerial command and control structure that demands a plan – scope driven approach for creating products.
The PMBOK® and resultant product development command and control waterfall methodology is enticing since it offers us an illusion of certainty. Not only management benefits from this, rather we as humans, by default adherence to the allure of THE PLAN.
We now know it NEVER really functioned! Attributing to work by Professor Daniel Kahneman who coined the term “planning fallacy”, as well as the failure of the transformational view of input process and output management, and the delusion of thermostatic control, among others, we understand better our cognitive failures in planning, and controlling.
The linear command and control managerial planning approach was somewhat sufficient as long as the speed of change in markets was reasonable. It isn’t anymore, it has been accelerating.
We need a new paradigm.
This is Agile.

This book continues the practice of anchoring down an idea that flies by in a dyslexic student’s mind and putting that idea on paper. The dyslexia advantage is based on research from the Yale Center for Dyslexia & Creativity which clearly shows that the front part of the dyslexic brain has approximately three times more neural activity than their non-dyslexic peers.
