Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secrets have deadly consequences, especially in a digital world. What would you do if you-lost everything? Were haunted by demons and hunted by an invisible enemy? Could not trust the FBI or the U.S. Attorney General? Kevin Albright was about to find out. Kevin's world is turned upside down, and the search for answers only leaves more questions and doubts. The hunt takes him deep into an invisible underworld where he teams up with a woman who shares a common haunting past and a remarkable resemblance to his wife. But she is hiding a secret, a secret that could kill him. He knows the only way to locate and force the killers out into the open is to match their ruthlessness and cunning-and then destroy them, and their network, before the clock runs out and they execute their next deal. As Kevin closes in on the killers, he discovers evidence that their next deal is about to be launched. The potential target area-the U.S. east coast which includes twenty-six nuclear facilities, four liquefied natural gas terminals and major high-density population cities-New York, Philadelphia, Boston and Washington.

What would soul mates do to stay together? On the night of his tenth wedding anniversary Kevin Albright was about to find this out, and so much more. Kevin Albright is a renowned Internet computer technology security expert, on the verge of finally having it all-a family. But in an instant he loses a wife and a son as security is breached at the highest level of government and his world is turned upside down. When he describes the thug who killed his wife, FBI investigators are quick to tell him a person matching the description died years earlier in Central America, while two FBI Agents claim they tried to save his wife and that it was a drug deal gone-wrong. Kevin suspects the FBI are not sharing the real details about that night and wonders if the United States Attorney General knows what is really going on in the Department of Justice. He vows to get the killers even if they're in the government and he has to "die" to do it. When he is nearly killed, it sets off a high stakes game of 3D cyber chess on the Internet. Kevin must play like a chess master to stay alive and close in on an unseen enemy-a "dead" drug lord and partner reincarnated as stealthy information brokers operating in plain sight. While the FBI and CIA frantically search for those threatening the United States, their information brokering business is thriving-stealing and trading state secrets to the highest international bidder. They are ruthless, something learned in the drug trade, destroying anyone and everything that gets in the way of their next deal. Dying to get his wife's killers, the hunt takes Kevin deep into an invisible Internet underworld, where anyone's computer or cell phone can be remotely armed to fire invisible bullets and launch sinister attacks; where time, distance and location mean nothing. Where computer trafficking is more lethal than drug trafficking. Where crime and terrorism are a global electronic game played, won or lost in nanoseconds. This is the new reality, virtual reality-a world of evil and deadly invisible enemies.

Book excerpt: SECRETS HAVE DEADLY CONSEQUENCES, ESPECIALLY IN A DIGITAL WORLD. What if all things that happen in life-good and evil-are not random or coincidence, but really intentional cyber events? Kevin Albright is relocated to a foreign country, with a new identity. Trapped between the living and the dead, he's a lone wolf left to fight evil global cyber forces, and his past life demons, alone. His unrelenting search for the truth about what really happened to his family puts him on a collision course with enemies from his past as he uncovers a plot that will bring world superpowers to their knees. With no home country and uncertainty about whom he can trust, Kevin develops an elaborate plan to catch the deadly invisible enemies and stop their planned attack. As his plan unfolds, on the dark side of the World Wide Web, he learns the full scale of evil's resurrection-the reach and power of the Internet places the fate of ten percent of the world's population and seven world leaders in his hands. With the minutes counting down he unleashes a "cyber rendition," luring evil into his world and putting himself in its cross-hairs.

Book excerpt: Modern techno-industrial society has sheltered its citizens from fundamental biological and ecological truths that were well-known to people in the past. The power of science and endless technological innovation has produced a culture insulated in a protective, socially constructed prison of comfort. But nature often has a way of making a dramatic comeback, periodically unleashing plagues and other Invisible Enemies on humanity. The present pandemic is one of many deadly events in our history. However, the 2020 pandemic is not the only Invisible Enemy to confront humanity. Ecological-existential crises can arise and imperil civilizations. One must also consider the socio-economic costs of necessary lockdowns, which are staggering. Invisible Enemies also covers these issues, including the rapidly approaching Great Depression 2.0, social breakdowns, and the rising tide of violence that could ensue. The aim of this book, beginning with the socio-economic consequences of pandemics, is to examine these interconnected threats, and chart a personal survival strategy for individuals. A practical individualist approach to survivalism is advocated, and its practice mapped in detail. As always, your survival is in your own hands.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to alert you to enemies, familiar and unknown. Your observations of people are investments in your protection; forming an alarm system, a log of patterns, designed to alert you to danger. The broader your exposure to the nuances of evil the more sensitive your alarm system becomes. But observations of enemies are not nearly enough. When we see the outward menace of a shark's fin above water we are blind to the scores beneath as we kick toward shore. The deadliest of enemies cloak themselves well. They put us at ease. The water is calm. Only with bloodshed do we know they are there. Find out who they are.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America is on the brink of a post-nuclear war. Recent events have catapulted the American military into a state of emergency and American enemies are planning their assault. It started when a reporter discovered the horrific truth regarding the Strategic Offensive Reduction Treaty (a critical peace agreement between the former Soviet Union and the United States): Russia is cheating, and even worse - they hold the ultimate trump card: the one secret that can bring down the worlds super power. To exploit this haunting secret, Russia has constructed the most dangerous network of secret operatives ever known. Brutally trained from birth to act and think like Americans, this dynamic organization has been planted on American soil long ago by the former KGB to retrieve information at any cost, cause political catastrophe, or kill on moment's notice. Now they are out of control, striking fear into the heart of the Pentagon. In response to a devastating political assassination, the CIA has assembled a powerful team of agents that "do not exist" in an attempt to terminate an enemy that cannot be caught by any traditional methods. The fate of the free world is in their hands. These CIA agents are the last link between liberty and a nuclear holocaust. This exhilarating sequel casts the reader further into the furious depths of the intense vendetta, and unpredictable deceit - where there is a frightful undercover agenda that even the operatives themselves are not aware of, and an ominous shadow enemy is introduced. The reader is paralyzed with anticipation as the deadly rivalry somersaults out of control after the enemy operatives realize they have been set up by the system of honor they lived by. Here the game changes and no one has told them the rules. Betrayed by their own country and thrown into a world they can not trust, they are forced to depend on the most potent weapon they had ever been trained to use: their unnatural minds. In a fast paced sequel that spins from one explosive scene to the next, the most high-tech weaponry is used including speed of light weapons, "smart chips," artificial intelligence, and never before exposed government technology and organizations, thus introducing a new, exciting, untapped level of spycraft where nothing is what it seems.

Book excerpt: We are facing an overwhelming army of deadly, invisible enemies. We need a plan? before it's too late . Unlike natural disasters, whose destruction is concentrated in a limited area over a period of days, and illnesses, which have devastating effects but are limited to individuals and their families, infectious disease has the terrifying power to disrupt everyday life on a global scale, overwhelming public and private resources and bringing trade and transportation to a grinding halt. In today's world, it's easier than ever to move people, animals, and materials around the planet, but the same advances that make modern infrastructure so efficient have made epidemics and even pandemics nearly inevitable. And as outbreaks of Ebola, MERS, yellow fever, and Zika have demonstrated, we are woefully underprepared to deal with the fallout. So what can? and must? we do in order to protect ourselves from mankind's deadliest enemy? Drawing on the latest medical science, case studies, policy research, and hard-earned epidemiological lessons, Deadliest Enemy explores the resources and programs we need to develop if we are to keep ourselves safe from infectious disease. The authors show how we could wake up to a reality in which many antibiotics no longer cure, bioterror is a certainty, and the threat of a disastrous influenza pandemic looms ever larger. Only by understanding the challenges we face can we prevent the unthinkable from becoming the inevitable. Deadliest Enemy is high scientific drama, a chronicle of medical mystery and discovery, a reality check, and a practical plan of action.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For all our hubris, humans can be felled rapidly by an invisible enemy - viruses. All around us are minute entities that can damage and kill: the millions of viruses that pervade the natural world. Our bodies harbour many that we have long tolerated, but a new one, that jumps into humans from another species, can be lethal - as we have seen most recently with the virus responsible for COVID-19. But what are viruses, how do they cause disease, and how can we fight them? In Viruses: The Invisible Enemy, a brand new edition of her classic work, virologist Dorothy Crawford explores these questions. She takes the reader on a journey through the past to show how, as the human race evolved from hunter gatherer to farmer to our present urban, industrialised society, viruses have taken advantage of each lifestyle change to promote their own survival. We have acquired many new viruses along the way, some spreading globally and causing killer diseases. But now, in the 21st century, as humans increasingly encroach into and exploit the natural world, the rate of emergence of novel viruses is accelerating. Already we've had a flu pandemic, large epidemics from SARS, Ebola and Zika viruses, and most devastating of all, SARS-CoV-2, which swept around the world in 2020-21, causing the COVID-19 pandemic. The response of scientists has been rapid, producing vaccines in record time. But we can expect more such challenges in the future. This book discusses why and how SARS-CoV-2 and other killer viruses emerged, and how we can win the battle against such an enemy.

Download or read book Deadly Companions written by Dorothy H. Crawford and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since we started huddling together in communities, the story of human history has been inextricably entwined with the story of microbes. They have evolved and spread amongst us, shaping our culture through infection, disease, and pandemic. At the same time, our changing human culture has itself influenced the evolutionary path of microbes. Dorothy H. Crawford here shows that one cannot be truly understood without the other. Beginning with a dramatic account of the SARS pandemic at the start of the 21st century, she takes us back in time to follow the interlinked history of microbes and man, taking an up-to-date look at ancient plagues and epidemics, and identifying key changes in the way humans have lived - such as our move from hunter-gatherer to farmer to city-dweller - which made us vulnerable to microbe attack. Showing how we live our lives today - with increasing crowding and air travel - puts us once again at risk, Crawford asks whether we might ever conquer microbes completely, or whether we need to take a more microbe-centric view of the world. Among the possible answers, one thing becomes clear: that for generations to come, our deadly companions will continue to shape human history.
