In St. Henderson, a picturesque town on the Oregon coast, girls disappear without a trace. Among them is seventeen-year-old- Zelda Schulz’s sister, Jaybird. With no bodies and little evidence, the close-knit community dismisses the cases as runaways. Girls gone wild, lost, but not stolen. And life carries on as normal. But for Zelda, nothing will ever be the same again. When a teenage girl is found murdered on the beach during spring break, clutching Jaybird’s necklace in her hands, Zelda hopes for a chance to find out the truth. She uncovers her murder board and focuses on her main suspect, the English teacher who seems a little bit too friendly. The only problem is, she keeps coming up empty and no one in town seems to know anything. Zelda wonders who she can trust, when an anonymous envelope is delivered to Zelda’s ex-beau promising the truth about her sister’s disappearance in exchange for a favor. If she succeeds, she’ll find answers - she may even catch Jaybird’s killer. If she fails, the killer promises more missing girls will become dead bodies, and the truth about Jaybird will die with them.

The PIMS Yearbook is the annual yearbook of the International Panorama Council (IPC, Switzerland). It surveys the historical and contemporary landscape of panoramic and immersive media. This interdisciplinary field includes--but is not limited to--360-degree paintings; dioramas and museum displays; gaming; gardens; immersive experience; maps; material culture studies; media archeology; nineteenth-century popular media; optical and haptic devices; performative media; printed matter; public history; and virtual and augmented reality. Whereas the notion of the panoramic describes extensive, expansive and/or all-embracing vistas, immersion refers to porous interfaces between representation and the real, observer and observed, nature and culture, and past, present, and future. Together, the concepts of panorama and immersion have catalyzed time- and space-bending strategies for creating, experiencing, and transforming culture, ideas, and built and social space across the arc of human history. The PIMS Yearbook presents a range of disciplinary perspectives with the understanding that methodologies in the humanities, the arts, the sciences, design disciplines, social sciences, engineering, and other fields contribute important perspectives to the interdisciplinary field of panoramic and immersive media studies. The IPC is the international organization of panorama specialists committed to supporting the heritage and conservation of extant nineteenth and early-twentieth-century panoramas, and promoting awareness of the medium's history, derivative forms, and contemporary iterations. As a non-government and not-for-profit association subject to Swiss law, the IPC is active in the fields of panorama research, restoration, financing, management, exhibition, and marketing. The PIMS Yearbook succeeds the International Panorama Council Journal (IPCJ), a selected proceedings of the annual conferences of the IPC, published 2017-2023.

Thick as a Brick is a story of desire and denial. It’s about friend-zoning someone, even when you wanna jump his bones. Because he calls you perfect, but you know he’s a threat to your heart. Tattoos, boyish charm, a million-dollar bank balance, and a faulty filter between his brain and his mouth? That’s romance author, Drew Katterman. Big boobs, tiny waist, wide hips, and a painful case of self-consciousness? That’s me, up-and-coming audiobook narrator, Zelda Gordon. Drew’s fans call him brilliant. His detractors call him a playboy. My reviewers call me talented. My enemies call me opportunistic. Drew? He calls me perfect. And I call him a threat to my heart because he’s flirtatious, fun, and rich. He also has a gorgeous girlfriend, and I want only a professional relationship with him to prove my detractors wrong. Right? So why do his sexy smile and kind words inspire ideas that have nothing to do with a microphone and a manuscript? My competitors may be wrong about me sleeping my way to success, but they’re correct about one thing: I’m in this business to succeed. Screwing with Drew Katterman can only break my heart and prove the competition right. NOTE: Thick as a Brick hits a two on the spice-o-meter, but the rest of the series is a hot level four. This means if you're offended by four-letter words and people enjoying sex, this isn't the series for you.
