Book excerpt: How London was bought and sold by the Super-Rich, and what it means for the rest of us Who owns London? Today, the city is the epicentre of the world’s financial markets, an elite cultural hub, and a place to hide one’s wealth. In Alpha City, Rowland Atkinson tells the story of eager developers, sovereign wealth, and grasping politicians, all of which paved the way for the plutocratic colonisation of the cityscape. Atkinson moves through the gated communities and the mega-houses of the urban elite, charting how the rich live and their influence on the disturbing rise in evictions and displacements from the city. The book, fully updated, also looks at the capital’s prospects in the aftermath of Brexit and the pandemic, showing how the super-rich may capitalise on the crisis, increasing inequality and hardship.

Download or read book Alpha written by David Philipps and published by Crown. This book was released on 2022-09-13 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An “infuriating, fast-paced” (The Washington Post) account of the Navy SEALs of Alpha platoon, the startling accusations against their chief, Eddie Gallagher, and the courtroom battle that exposed the dark underbelly of America’s special forces—from a Pulitzer Prize–winning reporter WINNER OF THE COLORADO BOOK AWARD • “Nearly impossible to put down.”—Jon Krakauer, New York Times bestselling author of Where Men Win Glory and Into the Wild In this “brilliantly written” (The New York Times Book Review) and startling account, Pulitzer Prize–winning New York Times correspondent David Philipps reveals a powerful moral crucible, one that would define the American military during the years of combat that became known as “the forever war.” When the Navy SEALs of Alpha platoon returned from their 2017 deployment to Iraq, a group of them reported their chief, Eddie Gallagher, for war crimes, alleging that he’d stabbed a prisoner in cold blood and taken lethal sniper shots at unarmed civilians. The story of Alpha’s war, both in Iraq and in the shocking trial that followed the men’s accusations, would complicate the SEALs’ post-9/11 hero narrative, turning brothers-in-arms against one another and bringing into stark relief the choice that elite soldiers face between loyalty to their unit and to their country. One of the great stories written about American special forces, Alpha is by turns a battlefield drama, a courtroom thriller, and a compelling examination of how soldiers define themselves and live with the decisions in the heat of combat.

Okay, so maybe Freya's life isn't quite as perfect as she thought. There is more to the picturesque town of Jasper, Alberta than meets the eye. The residents quiet, and laid back demeanors perfectly disguise an extraordinary community of werewolves, vampires, and hunters. When Freya is finally able to see beyond the secrets, she is introduced to a supernatural world full of temptation, power, and love rivals. Freya's relationship with Tristan struggles to make it past all of the lies and secrets, so when a mysterious stranger strolls into her life, will she be able to resist his seductive charms? The biggest question is, how will she react when she discovers that she belongs in this new world, far more than she ever realized. This book contains adult themes, therefore 18+ is advised. This story ends in a cliffhanger, and is then continued in Abandoned By An Alpha. There may be some triggers in this book, ie, stalking, murder, adultery, and hunks that might melt your clothes off. The series as a whole, has a reverse harem feel to it, but Freya does not entertain all of the guys at once. That being said, there are a few scenes where more than one guy is involved, so be prepared. Lastly, if you would like to follow me, I can be found on Facebook (L.P. Dillon) or at Author L.P.Dillon's Divas on Facebook. I'm also on Twitter and Instagram occasionally, and my Freya Rose series can be found on Radish. Ps.

This book was released on 2023-03-14 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Stop! Let her go." A deep voice roared from outside of the dungeon forcing the guard leader's hand to hang in the air. Luciana gasped and fell to the ground, groaning as her wounded sore body came in contact with the hard cold floor but somehow grateful for the distraction and whoever it was that gave her a minute to breathe even if she knew it wouldn't last for long. All the eyes turned towards the figure. Anyone that could make the guard leader cower at his voice must be someone highly important. The figure walked into the dungeon room straight to Luciana where she lay helplessly on the ground. He towered over her with his penetrating eyes hovering over her. Then he gulped thickly. How could it be? The question pondered in his head as he stared down at the weak girl curled up and trembling before him whom a strange fragrance had drawn him to. Could she be ...his mate… "No…no way..." he muttered under his breath, taking a foot backward. There was no way he would agree to being mate to a weakling and a slave. Never.
