Book excerpt: "From Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Edgar Allan Poe to Dorothy Sayers and Ellery Queen, the best mystery writers have always favored the short story. And the tradition is alive and well in Deadly Allies II, the second collaboration between the two most influential mystery writers' organizations in America - Private Eye Writers of America and Sisters in Crime." "This exciting new anthology of previously unpublished works once again features thematically paired stories - one by a member of PWA, the other by a SinC - that are sure to generate provocative contrasts for the readers. S. J. Rozan and Loren D. Estleman provide classic tales of private eyes whose clients think their money can buy anything; Max Allan Collins and Faye Kellerman remind us of how terrifying utter helplessness can be; Marilyn Wallace and Benjamin M. Schutz explore the passionate revenge of discarded lovers." "These and eight other pairings - of such luminaries as Jeremiah Healy and P. M. Carlson, Sarah Shankman and John Lutz, Joan Hess and Michael Collins - will keep mystery buffs up reading long in the night."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

  • Author : Malcolm Fraser
  • Publisher : Melbourne Univ. Publishing
  • Release : 2014-05-01
  • ISBN : 0522862667
  • Pages : 369 pages

Download or read book Dangerous Allies written by Malcolm Fraser and published by Melbourne Univ. Publishing. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia has always been reliant on 'great and powerful friends' for its sense of national security and for direction on its foreign policy—first on the British Empire and now on the United States. Australia has actively pursued a policy of strategic dependence, believing that making a grand bargain with a powerful ally was the best policy to ensure its security and prosperity. Dangerous Allies examines Australia's history of strategic dependence and questions the continuation of this position. It argues that international circumstances, in the world and in the Western Pacific especially, now make such a policy highly questionable. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, the United States has also changed dramatically, making it less relevant to Australia and a less appropriate ally on which Australia should rely. Malcolm Fraser argues that Australia should adopt a much greater degree of independence in foreign policy, and that we should no longer merely follow other nations into wars of no direct interest to Australia or Australia's security. He argues for an end to strategic dependence and for the timely establishment of a truly independent Australia.

Book Playing Detective

    Book Details:
  • Author : Robert Eidelberg
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2013-05
  • ISBN : 1477290605
  • Pages : 565 pages

Download or read book Playing Detective written by Robert Eidelberg and published by . This book was released on 2013-05 with total page 565 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intentionally long subtitle to Detectives comes close to saying it all about this unique two-in-one book - but not quite. Detectives is both a book to read for the fun of it and a book to read for self-improvement if you are looking to become a better reader, thinker, and writer. The for-the-fun-of-it part comes from reading and wondering about the mystery-solving skills of the contemporary and classic detectives showcased in these 24 remarkable mystery stories and plays. The self-improvement part comes from the book's four special features: Suspicions?, How Clever?, DetectWrite, and Don't Peek! Multiple Suspicions? "intermissions" in the margins of each mystery are strategically placed to help you to think like a detective -- and like a good reader. Their provocative questions prompt you to note and track clues and to make predictions while you are immersed in the mystery. How Clever? questions and activities, located immediately after each mystery's conclusion, give practice in the skills of detection and reflection so vital to the self-improvement goal of becoming a more observant reader and more mindful thinker. How Clever? sections enable you to review the now-solved mystery, analyze the strengths and weaknesses of your own Suspicions? speculations, and evaluate just how capable both you and the story's fictional sleuth were in arriving at a solution. DetectWrite writing prompts following all the How Clever? sections of each mystery help you to establish your own voice as a more effective writer in a variety of writing forms while giving you opportunities to even write like a detective story author. At the very end of the book (but don't jump to any conclusions!), the almost 50 pages of the Don't Peek! section provide "one reader's" explanations of the solutions to the 24 mystery stories and plays.

Following an explosive showdown with President Fuerte and his supernatural henchmen, the forgotten five and their allies are feeling lost. Their trusted friend and mentor The Librarian has left the group and declared her loyalty to the corrupt president. Has the Librarian really abandoned them in their quest to take down Fuerte’s regime, or has she been kidnapped? Then, without warning, Troy Cordoba—Tenner’s dad, who has been working for Fuerte for years—shows up at the five’s safe house wanting to join their cause but accidentally leading the presidential guards right to their doorstep. Troy insists that he has changed for the better, but Tenner isn’t sure he can be trusted. Meanwhile, Magdalia Palacio’s election campaign is gaining steam. If she’s against the president, does that make her the five’s ally? The kids will have to decide who to put their faith in—and fast—before the president uses his supernatural army to crush his opponent and cement his criminal rule over Estero once and for all.

Book Fighting to Lose

  • Author : John Bryden
  • Publisher : Dundurn
  • Release : 2014-04-19
  • ISBN : 1459719611
  • Pages : 510 pages

Download or read book Fighting to Lose written by John Bryden and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2014-04-19 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Startling new revelations about collaboration between the Allies and the German Secret Service. Based on extensive primary source research, John Bryden’s Fighting to Lose presents compelling evidence that the German intelligence service — the Abwehr — undertook to rescue Britain from certain defeat in 1941. Recently opened secret intelligence files indicate that the famed British double-cross or double-agent system was in fact a German triple-cross system. These files also reveal that British intelligence secretly appealed to the Abwehr for help during the war, and that the Abwehr’s chief, Admiral Canaris, responded by providing Churchill with the ammunition needed in order to persuade Roosevelt to lure the Japanese into attacking Pearl Harbor. These findings and others like them make John Bryden’s Fighting to Lose one of the most fascinating books about World War II to be published for many years.
