Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every once in a while, someone with unprecedented access to the truth, lifts the veil in a memoir so stark and revealing that it has the power to reframe history and our perceptions of those who defined it. Pascal Mahvi's book is one such to me. The Deadly Secrets of Iranian Princes, which spans three decades, is Mahvi's candid account of his struggle growing up straddling two cultures and in the process reconciling his own identity both as an American and a descendant of Iranian royalty. When the newly appointed Shah of Iran reaches out to Mahvi's father to become his chief advisor and confidante, young Pascal is thrust into the controversial leader's elite inner-sanctum during one of the most pivotal periods in history. The author's story of survival is at once both riveting and poignant, offering rare, intimate glimpses of the Shah at his most human away from the glare of the spotlight. It is also a window into the surprising strengths and frailties of some of the world's most famous celebrities from the deeply personal perspective of someone who unexpectedly finds himself an intimate part of their world. Told through the eyes of a son forced to become a man against a backdrop of unimaginable danger and sacrifice, Deadly Secrets of Iranian Princes is the front page story that hasn't been broken...until now. The revelations in this book, from corporate treason and corrupt government to the surreal demands of being an insider in the shadow of a nuclear arms race are sure to ignite a firestorm of controversy, especially for those whose betrayals will finally become public. More than a news story, at its heart, Deadly Secrets of Iranian Princes is also a haunting testimonial to the complexities of extreme privilege and the unforgettable chronicle of one man's quest to honor his father....

Download or read book A Deadly Secret written by Matt Birkbeck and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-04-14 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of the HBO documentary The Jinx, convicted murderer Robert Durst's story is as outrageous as it is horrifying. Here, from the first reporter to access Durst’s NYPD files, is the authoritative account of a decades-long criminal odyssey—the very book found in Durst’s own apartment when it was searched by police. When medical student Kathie Durst vanished in 1982, she was married to Robert Durst, son of a New York real estate magnate. Kathie’s friends had reason to implicate her husband. They told police that Kathie lived in terror of Robert, and that she had uncovered incriminating financial evidence about him. But Durst’s secrets went even deeper. For decades, Kathie’s disappearance remained a mystery. Then in 2001, Durst, an heir to an empire valued at two billion dollars, was arrested for shoplifting in Pennsylvania. When the police brought him in, they discovered that he was a suspect in the murder of Texas drifter Morris Black, whose dismembered remains were found floating in Galveston Bay, and that Durst was also wanted for questioning in the killing of his friend, Susan Burman, in Los Angeles. Based on interviews with family, friends, and acquaintances of Durst, law enforcement, and others involved in the case, A Deadly Secret is a cross-country odyssey of stolen IDs and multiple identities that raises baffling questions about one of the country’s most prominent families—and one of its most elusive killers. Includes additional material not in the original Berkley edition and eight pages of photographs

Download or read book A Deadly Secret written by Drac Von Stoller and published by Drac Von Stoller. This book was released on 2024-08-12 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ed Pennington was a titan of industry, his name synonymous with oil. The Pennington Oil Company was an empire, sprawling across continents, a testament to his ruthless ambition. But beneath the veneer of success lurked a dark secret. Anyone who dared to challenge his dominion vanished, leaving behind only whispers of doubt and fear. Ed’s dirty deeds were about to come crashing down around him when rumours about shady deals, and mysterious deaths and people vanishing without a trace got back to Detective Graves by informants. He wasn’t about to ignore the rumours and seriousness on the faces of the informants. This would be considered a high-profile case that could catapult his career to unforeseen heights. Detective Jack Graves stood at his office window one day, staring out at the city skyline. The lights of Pennington Oil's headquarters blazed in the distance, a constant reminder of the case that had consumed his life for the past five years. Graves ran a hand through his graying hair, feeling every one of his 52 years. His weathered face, lined with the stress of countless investigations, reflected in the glass. Behind him, the wall was covered with photos, newspaper clippings, and red string connecting various pieces of evidence – all related to Ed Pennington and his empire. As he turned back to his desk, his eyes fell on a framed photo. A young woman with laughing eyes smiled back at him. Sarah, his daughter. The reason he couldn't let this case go, no matter the cost. Five years ago, Sarah had been an environmental activist, passionate about exposing corporate wrongdoing. She had been investigating Pennington Oil when she vanished without a trace. The official investigation turned up nothing, but Graves knew in his gut that Pennington was responsible. He picked up the photo, his throat tightening. "I'll find the truth, sweetheart," he whispered. "I promise." A knock at the door jolted him from his reverie. His partner, Detective Maria Sanchez, entered, carrying a stack of files. "Jack, we've got something," she said, her dark eyes alight with excitement. "Remember that offshore account we've been trying to trace? We finally got a break." Graves leaned forward, his fatigue forgotten. "What did you find?" Sanchez spread the files on his desk. "It's not just one account. It's a whole network. Look at this." She pointed to a complex diagram of financial transactions. "Pennington's been using a series of shell companies to funnel money. But here's the kicker – we've traced one of these companies to a small island in the Caribbean." Graves' pulse quickened. This could be the lead they'd been waiting for. But as he studied the diagram, a nagging doubt crept in. This information seemed almost too perfect, too convenient. "Maria, where did this intel come from?" he asked, his voice low. Sanchez hesitated. "An anonymous tip. I know what you're thinking, Jack, but this is solid. We've verified it through multiple sources." Graves nodded, but the unease remained. In his experience, there was no such thing as a coincidence in a case like this. Either someone on the inside was turning against Pennington, or this was an elaborate trap. "Alright," he said finally. "Let's dig deeper. But we need to be careful. If Pennington gets wind of this, he'll bury the evidence so deep we'll never find it." As Sanchez left to continue her research, Graves turned back to the wall of evidence. His eyes landed on a newspaper clipping about Alex Turner, the young engineer who had recently disappeared. Something about Turner's case had felt different from the start. Maybe it was time to revisit it. Graves pulled Turner's file from his desk drawer, spreading the contents across his desk. As he pored over the details, a pattern began to emerge. Turner had been working on an offshore rig when he disappeared, and according to his notes, he had discovered something that made him fear for his life. Graves' mind raced. Could Turner's discovery be connected to the financial irregularities they'd just uncovered? He needed to find out what Turner had been working on before he vanished. With renewed determination, Graves reached for his phone. It was time to pay another visit to Pennington Oil, this time armed with new questions and a sharper focus. As he dialed, he couldn't shake the feeling that he was getting closer to the truth – and that the danger was about to escalate dramatically. Little did Graves know, his every move was being watched. In a darkened room across the city, a figure observed multiple screens showing live feeds from hidden cameras in Graves' office. The figure reached for a phone, dialing a number from memory. "Sir," the voice said when the call connected. "Graves is on the move. He's digging into the Turner case again." On the other end of the line, Ed Pennington's voice was cold and calculated. "Keep watching him. If he gets too close, you know what to do." As the call disconnected, the observer turned back to the screens, a conflicted expression crossing their face. The game was intensifying, and soon, loyalties would be tested and secrets revealed in ways no one could predict. The sleek glass and steel facade of Pennington Oil headquarters loomed before Graves as he stepped out of his car. He straightened his tie, a gesture more out of habit than concern for appearance. His mind was racing, piecing together the puzzle of Alex Turner's disappearance and its potential connection to the offshore accounts. As he entered the lobby, the same receptionist from his previous visit greeted him with a plastic smile. "Detective Graves, what a surprise. I'm afraid Mr. Pennington is in a meeting and can't be disturbed." Graves leaned on the counter, his voice low but firm. "That's fine. I'm here to speak with someone from the engineering department. Specifically, someone who worked with Alex Turner." The receptionist's smile faltered for a moment. "I... I'll need to check on that, Detective. Please wait here." As she made a call, Graves scanned the lobby. His trained eye caught sight of a security camera adjusting its angle, following his movements. He suppressed a smile. Let them watch. He wanted Pennington to know he was here. A few minutes later, a nervous-looking man in his thirties approached. "Detective Graves? I'm Tom Chen, I worked with Alex in engineering." Graves nodded, gesturing toward the seating area. "Mr. Chen, I appreciate you taking the time to speak with me. I have a few questions about Alex's work before he disappeared."
