Book excerpt: The oil-rich middle eastern state of Jubayl is peacefully led by a long-serving and well-respected Emir, but that peace is shattered when his son and heir is found weighted in a watery grave beneath a leased oil rig. Peter Craig, overseas police adviser for the British Government, is in the region lecturing on couterinsurgency when his Embassy proffers his services to help find the killer. The chief suspect, an oil company worker with motive – his ex-girlfriend’s liaisons with the dead sheikh – looks to have been framed, but the ‘evidence’ against him is damning unless Craig can present proof that he has been set up, and find another credible suspect. How is the sale of the oil platform to a neighbouring state linked to a local pimp and businessman? And who has most to gain from the death? What had the Sheikh's network of spies discovered? When the final events of the intricate grand plan start to play out, the stakes are far higher than Craig could have anticipated and will call on all his skills and experience to avert international disaster in the Middle East.

Book excerpt: A year into marriage, Jack Culligan's ambition of assuming a paternal role to his two stepsons, introverted Chris and rebellious Ricky, is proving nothing more than a pipe dream. His wife, Betty, has all but given up on her husband when Jack, in an act of desperation, moves the family out of Baltimore to his nearby hometown of Creighton. That summer, a city street becomes the stage for a gruesome suicide. Nine months later, two of the witnesses, Jack and Chris, find themselves experiencing nightmares so realistic they fear not only for their sanity, but for their lives. The shared dilemma draws the boy and his stepdad together in an effort to stop the tidal wave of "Dreality" from washing away their dream of becoming a family.

Download or read book Spies and Holy Wars written by Reeva Spector Simon and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illuminating a powerful intersection between popular culture and global politics, Spies and Holy Wars draws on a sampling of more than eight hundred British and American thrillers that are propelled by the theme of jihad—an Islamic holy war or crusade against the West. Published over the past century, the books in this expansive study encompass spy novels and crime fiction, illustrating new connections between these genres and Western imperialism. Demonstrating the social implications of the popularity of such books, Reeva Spector Simon covers how the Middle Eastern villain evolved from being the malleable victim before World War II to the international, techno-savvy figure in today's crime novels. She explores the impact of James Bond, pulp fiction, and comic books and also analyzes the ways in which world events shaped the genre, particularly in recent years. Worldwide terrorism and economic domination prevail as the most common sources of narrative tension in these works, while military "tech novels" restored the prestige of the American hero in the wake of post-Vietnam skepticism. Moving beyond stereotypes, Simon examines the relationships between publishing trends, political trends, and popular culture at large—giving voice to the previously unexamined truths that emerge from these provocative page-turners.
