“Everyone involved pretends they had absolutely no idea.” Ian Hislop, Private Eye’s editor, appeared on Tonight with Andrew Marr to discuss the Epstein files, and the cover the Eye ran in reference to the paedophile sex trafficker all the way back in 2011.

Hideous licensing agreement from Red Ogre Review, but what really jumps out at me is the moral rights waiver
j-tkelly.bsky.social J-T Kelly @j-tkelly.bsky.social · 9h
Red Ogre (@ogre.red) gets rights to your work upon *submission*.

And those rights are ridiculous. They can change your work, not credit you, use your work for advertising, or put it in an anthology.

Don't submit to this one, folks.
Content Licensing# Content submissions of any type to Red Ogre Review are conditioned on, and evidence of, your explicit agreement that in exchange for Red Ogre Review’s evaluation of your content submission for potential publication with Red Ogre Review or any other publication outlet, you intentionally and unreservedly grant Red Ogre Review an unrestricted, transferable, and nonrevocable worldwide license and right to use the submission content on this site and in any reproduced, related, or derivative materials, including in print books and in electronic books produced by Red Ogre Review, and on social media channels operated by or affiliated with Red Ogre Review, without expectation of any cash payment, royalty payments, or any other valuable compensation; you also irrevocably waive in their entirety any current or future exercise of “natural rights” or “moral rights of authors” as may potentially be asserted.

Counter-narrative historical mystery
✨️ Mixed-race detective in 1870s Scotland
✨️ Female criminal gang
✨️Colonial interests running counter to justice
✨️ Complex mystery set around the world of Victorian theatricals
✨️ Woman fighting extradition as Scots law gave her more rights
A guide to Gin and Fog. 87,000 word historical mystery written by a former police officer who has studied early forensics. For fans of; Fingersmith by Sarah Waters, The Alienist by Caleb Carr, The Strings of Murder Oscar de Muriel. Historcial Background. The Pitch 1877 Scotland, and a mixed-race Detective Sergeant. The wife of a well-known psychic claims a mythical Celtic creature intends to kill her, pitting myth against scientific belief. She turns to the Black Heathers, a gang of female criminals for protection, but they have their hands full dealing with governmental colonial interests more corrupt than their own. New research has uncovered at last three mixed-race police officers in the UK from the 1830s onwards. One reached Superintendent rank in the 1840s. In the period in which this book is set Scotland had a mixed-race MP. The book aims cast light on forgotten history, putting new flesh on old bones. “Enough,”McIntosh’s voice hardened. “My sergeant speaks two languages and has a degree in sciences from the Sorbonne. I’m lucky he’s not white, because he’d never do a job like this if he was. No force in the country has a sergeant with such an education. That’s an end to this nonsense, General. He might be your musty-whatever you called him, but he’s our respected colleague. I won’t have it.”
