Berlin, 1932. Hulda Gold ist als Hebamme im berüchtigten Frauengefängnis Barnimstraße in der Nähe des Alexanderplatzes tätig. Dort versorgt sie inhaftierte Schwangere und Mütter mit ihren Kindern und hat einen guten Draht zu den oftmals verzweifelten Frauen. Als innerhalb der Gefängnismauern die junge Insassin Ruth völlig unerwartet stirbt, kann Hulda nicht untätig bleiben. Aber die Kriminalpolizistin, die mit der Aufklärung des scheinbar unbedeutenden Falls betraut wird, ist ausgerechnet Irma Siegel. Hulda und sie kennen sich von früher, doch sie gingen nicht als Freundinnen auseinander. Bald kommen Zweifel auf, dass Ruth eines natürlichen Todes starb. Der Verdacht fällt auf ihre Zellengenossin, die bereits wegen versuchten Mordes verurteilt ist und kurz vor der Entbindung ihres Kindes steht. Doch ist diese Frau, die Hulda als Gefängnishebamme betreut, wirklich die Mörderin? Hulda und die Kommissarin Irma Siegel müssen endlich zusammenarbeiten und gemeinsam gegen das Unrecht kämpfen - während sich die politischen Kräfte in Deutschland immer mehr radikalisieren.

Shortlisted for the The British Book Design Awards 'Every witch uses her magic differently. I use mine to heal people, while others ...' 'What do the others do!? Are there many different types of witches!?"Oh yes! Many...' Witchcraft: A Graphic History immerses readers in the world of witchcraft, revealing the practices and beliefs of witches. Through the story of Lindsay, a young and curious 19th-century lass, and her encounters with Biddy Early, the famous 'wise woman of County Clare,' readers learn how magic was used to heal, protect, and empower communities. Biddy Early, who lived from 17981874 in Ireland, was by no means the first-ever witch, but she was the first to appear on the historical record. Before her, fears and superstitions surrounding practitioners of 'the nameless art' were too strong. It is said that Biddy took an apprenticeship with the 'good folk,' sidhe or faeries, when she was very young, and it was from them that she learnt her skill as a healer. Never one to accept monetary payment for the help she offered, Biddy would often swap home-brewed alcohol for her services, which in turn made her ramshackle cottage in Feakle a hub for the local community. When her little corner of the county drew the attention of the Catholic Church and the local authorities, things became very difficult for this unusual woman . . . Encompassing self-empowerment, feminism, dealing with stigma and eco-spirituality, as well as plant magic, traditions and green wisdom, Witchcraft: A Graphic History provides a visually rich and engaging exploration of an endlessly fascinating subject, showing how historical witchcraft continues to inspire curiosity and reflection today. This book is part of a series that also includes Tarot: A Graphic History and Goddesses: A Graphic History, each offering a vivid, illustrated journey into magic, mysticism and the extraordinary women behind these traditions.

"Kenojuak Ashevak (1927-2013) is widely considered a Canadian national treasure. She was a groundbreaking artist for Kinngait Studios, in the Arctic territory of Nunavut, and ultimately a pioneer of modern Inuit art. Ashevak made her first print as a member of the cooperative studios in 1958, and for decades she continued to transform the plants and animals of the Inuit world into radiant works of art. After establishing her reputation in 1960 with The Enchanted Owl-an image so popular it was reproduced on a Canadian postage stamp-she worked nearly nonstop. She contributed to Cape Dorset's print collection almost every year and completed countless pieces. This book celebrates her life and legacy, presenting a selection of drawings and the prints they were turned into. An essay by Leslie Boyd, author and editor of multiple books on the artists of Cape Dorset, and a foreword by Silaqi Ashevak, Kenojuak's daughter, add context to the work. Both the essay and forward are presented in English, French, and Inuktitut"-- Autorid: Silaqi Ashevak, Leslie Boyd, Kenojuak
