When I was fifteen, I went for a walk in the woods. I was never the same again. I was told to bury what I saw happen and to never speak of it again. But secrets have a way of eating you alive until nothing is left, and seven years later, I''m in the middle of a divorce and trying to start over when I receive a call from my mother, telling me my father has died. Now, I have to return to the place that holds every one of my dark secrets. Everything appears to be the same: the town, my family, even the woods. But secrets are weeping out of the weakening branches, and I discover that my father''s death might not have been an accident. I need answers. But finding them means digging into a past I''ve spent years trying to forget.

Silent Parties ist ein auf acht historischen Rechtsfällen basierendes Gesamtkunstwerk. Die Arbeit des Künstlerduos benandsebastian im Auftrag des Gerichts von Aarhus konzentriert sich auf nicht-menschliche Protagonisten in der Rechtsgeschichte und untersucht Fälle, in denen Tiere oder Roboter im Mittelpunkt von Rechtsstreitigkeiten standen. Von einem Verfahren aus dem 15. Jahrhundert, in dem ein Hahn wegen des angeblichen Legens eines Eis vor Gericht stand, bis hin zu einem aktuellen Fall, in dem verhandelt wurde, ob lebensgroße, singende und tanzende Roboter einer amerikanischen Restaurantkette als lebende Darsteller behandelt werden sollten. benandsebastian haben mit Expert*innen aus den Bereichen Recht, Robotik, Ethik, Anthropologie und Kognitionswissenschaft zusammengearbeitet, um herauszufinden, auf welche Weise Nichtmenschen in der Rechtsgeschichte zwar stumme, aber dennoch für das Denken ihrer Zeit aufschlussreiche Parteien waren.

My new life in Honeyton is becoming complicated. It all starts when I hear my uncle talking about some sketchy stuff that may have to do with me. I also think there might be more to Hunter, Jax, and Zay than they''re letting on, like maybe we''ve met before. Not that everything is terrible. The guys are nice to me, and they''ve brought me into their group. For the first time, I think I might finally have some friends. But a lot of mystery still surrounds me. And I''m still being blackmailed by someone. I need to figure out the truth about my past and fast.

But I''m pretty sure he might be keeping a secret from me. After a little digging around, I discover I''m right. But the truth is way more complicated, and maybe even dangerous, than I thought.

Things are going well for Callie and Kayden. They''re still dealing with their past and the pain connected to it, but for the most part they''ve moved on. The biggest decision they have at the moment is what they want to do with their lives in the future. Eventually, though, the past catches up with them and they''re left facing tough choices. But Callie and Kayden learn that as long as they have each other, they can make it through just about anything. And in the end, they discover what they really want out of life.

Grey is one of the most popular guys at school, and he hasn''t always been that nice to me. So I expect him to tell everyone what he found out about me. But strangely, he doesn''t. That should be a relief except, turns out, he isn''t the only one who knows a secret of mine. And this person is trying to blackmail me. I need to find out who they are and quickly, before I end up in a lot of trouble.

One day ago my life was pretty perfect. But a lot can change in a day. In one day, I went from being Ashlynn Wynterland, one of the most popular girls in school, to being the girl who spends lunchtime hiding out in Mr. Chester''s classroom and watching Maxon Harter, and his science obsessed friends mess around with experiments. All because Queeny Harlington thinks I made out with her crush. Queeny Harlington is the queen of Fareland high. And up until a day ago, she was my best friend. Now she''s my worst enemy who''s threatening to tell the entire school all of my secrets. Being a friendless, social outcast has its downsides. So, when Maxon invites me to hang out with him and his mad scientist friends, I accept his offer, even though they all seem to despise me. Which is fine. Sort of... The truth is I''ve always thought Maxon is cute in a weirdly unordinary way. And the more I get to know him, the more I find myself liking him. But when Queeny decides to tell everyone my darkest secret of all, my new friendship doesn''t look like it''s going to survive. As my heart breaks, I make a choice that ends up shattering my world completely. In that dark moment, I learn who my real friends are and that nothing about Fareland is what it seems.
