"Russian Dolls" marks the beginning of a new detective series. Everybody who has seen the pre-release could not put it down.

2013-02-20

GENEVA, SWITZERLAND, February 20, 2013 (Press-News.org) Cristelle Comby has announced the upcoming release, on 13/03/13, of the first book in her new "Neve & Egan" detective series. Mark the calendar, as this first entry, Russian Dolls, is sure to set the literary world on fire. Cristelle has mastered the art of spinning an engrossing crime drama, while making the reader feel that they are part of the story.

Russian Dolls has all the elements of a successful new-adult crime drama. The story opens with the main character, Alexandra Neve, a student at a London University, as her world is shattered by the news of her best friend's "apparent" suicide. The policemen involved in the case are not willing to look deeper into the matter, so what can she do to prove there's more to it? And if her friend's death was not a suicide who was it that killed her?

Soon enough Neve comes to realise that she needs help, but doesn't know who to turn to. In steps Professor Ashford Egan, a blind middle-aged history teacher, who's willing to accompany her on her dangerous journey of discovery. The two of them become one of the most unlikely team of investigators who, in order to accomplish their goal, have to overcome their deepest fears and confront an all-powerful enemy, the Russian mafia.

Neve and Egan are two seemingly ordinary people, who in the course of the investigation manage to become extraordinary, and thus form a team unlike any other in Detective fiction. Russian Dolls, their first adventure, is a story of self-discovery in a way; the ones to follow will highlight their crime-fighting future, a future that the reader will be thrilled to discover along with them.

Fluids in Space, Shaken Not Stirred

2013-02-20

James Bond might be the first to tell you that a well-shaken martini is a vast improvement over one that has settled and separated. A good mixture depends on understanding exactly how much to agitate a drink, as well as how quickly the ingredients will settle and if there are other mediating factors, such as temperature. If Bond really wanted to understand the science of his spirits, he could follow the examples of researchers who sent fluid mixture experiments to the International Space Station. The Selectable Optical Diagnostics Instrument-Influence of Vibrations ...

Young malaria parasites refuse to take their medicine, may explain emerging drug resistance

2013-02-19

New research has revealed that immature malaria parasites are more resistant to treatment with key antimalarial drugs than older parasites, a finding that could lead to more effective treatments for a disease that kills one person every minute and is developing resistance to drugs at an alarming rate. University of Melbourne researchers have shown for the first time that malaria parasites (Plasmodium falciparum)in the early stages of development are more than 100 times less sensitive to artemisinin-based drugs, which currently represent a last line of defense against ...

Some cheeses exceed contaminant levels recommended by EU

2013-02-19

Researchers at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (Spain) have analysed more than 60 brands of cheese commonly available in supermarkets. The concentration of organochloride contaminants in the majority of the samples was lower than levels set by European legislation, but in a few cases it was higher. The scientists recommend that an eye is kept on polychlorinated biphenyls as they are carcinogenic. The majority of these compound concentrations appeared in organic cheeses. "In general, chloride contaminant residue levels were low in the cheese samples that we ...

Gene linked to worse outcomes for melanoma

2013-02-19

Scientists at Queen Mary, University of London have identified a gene present in some melanoma which appears to make the tumour cells more resistant to treatment, according to research published today in the Journal of Experimental Medicine. The scientists discovered that the gene TP63 is unexpectedly expressed in some melanoma and correlates significantly with a worse prognosis. It is hoped this new understanding of what makes some melanoma cells so difficult to kill will help inform the development of new therapies. Melanoma is a form of skin cancer which usually appears ...

Not just cars, but living organisms need antifreeze to survive

2013-02-19

Jerusalem, February 17, 2013 – If you thought antifreeze was only something that was necessary to keep your car from freezing up in the winter, think again. Plants and animals living in cold climates have natural antifreeze proteins (AFPs) which prevent ice growth and crystallization of organic fluid matter. Without such antifreeze, living matter would suffer from frost damage and even death. Production of such antifreeze proteins is one of the major evolutionary routes taken by a variety of organisms, including fish, insects, bacteria, plants and fungi. Understanding ...

Blood is thicker than water -- and blood plasma is, too

2013-02-19

The results are significant because they can help to improve our understanding of medical conditions, such as thrombosis, aneurysms and arteriosclerosis. The research team is publishing its results in Physical Review Letters and the American Physical Society has highlighted the work on its Physics website, placing it on the Focus List of important physics news. Blood flows differently than water. Anyone who has ever cut themselves knows that blood flows viscously and rather erratically. The similarity between blood and ketchup is something not only filmmakers are aware ...

Researchers in Manchester find genetic key to preventing spine tumors

2013-02-19

Genetic medicine experts from Manchester Biomedical Research Centre at Saint Mary's Hospital and The University of Manchester have identified a new gene responsible for causing an inherited form of tumour, known as spinal meningioma. Professor Richard Marias, Director of the Paterson Institute Meningiomas are the commonest form of tumour affecting the brain and spine. Usually meningiomas can be removed by surgery and do not recur. Occasionally people can develop more than one meningioma or many members of the same family can be affected. A team led by Dr Miriam Smith, ...

Subordinate animals as guinea pigs

2013-02-19

In their environment, wild animals are exposed to countless threats, be they predators, diseases or natural obstacles to get over, such as gorges or rivers. In the course of evolution, they have developed specific behavioural responses to allow them to deal with these risks. In recent times, numerous man-made threats have been added to the naturally-existing ones, such as dangerous roads to cross. On the evolutionary time scale, it is excluded that the animals have evolved a whole new repertoire of adaptive responses to these risks. Simon Townsend is a behavioural biologist ...
