People have always grown food in urban spaces―on windowsills and sidewalks, and in backyards and neighborhood parks―but today, urban farmers are leading an environmental and social movement that transforms our national food system. To explore this agricultural renaissance, brothers David and Michael Hanson and urban farmer Edwin Marty document twelve successful urban farm programs, from an alternative school for girls in Detroit, to a backyard food swap in New Orleans, to a restaurant supply garden on a rooftop in Brooklyn. Each beautifully illustrated essay offers practical advice for budding farmers, such as composting and keeping livestock in the city, decontaminating toxic soil, even changing zoning laws.

V kaplnke Našej Panej Božieho svetla ležia dve mníšky – jedna mŕtva, druhá kriticky zranená, obete nevýslovne surového útočníka. Brutálny zločin na prvý pohľad nemá motív, no pri pitve mŕtvej ženy súdna lekárka Maura Islesová zistí, že dvadsaťročná sestra Camille pred smrťou porodila. Vzápätí nájdu ďalšie telo zohavené na nepoznanie. Doktorka Islesová spolu s detektívkou Jane Rizzoliovou pomaly odhaľujú starobylú hrôzu spájajúcu tieto príšerné masakre.
