The second part of the Grievance trilogy sees DI Carole Armstrong drawn deeper into a web of secrets and lies. Following the funeral of Brenda Forres, Carole promises her son Johnny that she will nail' the two prime suspects. But as more evidence is uncovered and politicians begin to reach for the dream of peace in Belfast, circumstances make it harder than ever for her to keep that vow. Johnny leaves for Germany, to spend time with his brother and see if a new life, in a unified Germany might take the edge off his anger, his longing for revenge. Can he put the past behind him? With the Good Friday Agreement about to be signed, the security services realise that some ties must be cut, secrets buried deeper, and some people will have to be left to their fate. Loyalties, on all sides, are about to be tested to the bitter end.

This volume contains 25 articles covering a wide array of subjects, reflecting the breadth of scholarship of one of today’s leading experts in the field of Frisian Studies. The articles, written mostly in English and German, encompass a temporal range from Old Frisian to Modern Frisian and a geographical range from West Frisian in the Netherlands to Sater and North Frisian in Germany, and include Low German. Some articles initiate new fields of enquiry, e.g. uncharted areas of dialectology, others give comprehensive reviews of certain domains, e.g. the provenance of Old Frisian law texts, while a third category focusses on specific topics ranging from phonology, grammar and etymology to aspects of Frisian literature and a medieval Frisian ballad.
