This leads to the discovery of an extremely rich vein of Blue Diamonds that Jack Murray develops into a small but successful mining company with the assistance of a well known diamond producer. Listing on the Australian Stock Exchange sees the company’s fortunes rapidly grow and provide a rich return to investors.

With persuasion from disgruntled investors, Jack buys back the company at a rock bottom price that includes a lease to a diamond mine in the turbulent African country, the Democratic Republic of the Congo. With his partner, Jack relocates to the eastern regions of the troubled DRC and re-opens the mine with the help of untrained but enthusiastic local workers. Conflict soon erupts with rebel leaders from neighbouring Rwanda that threatens the lives of all involved

Book excerpt: Scott came home that evening expecting his normally calm, upscale suburban neighborhood to be normal and calm. The sight of police, fire department, and helicopters hovering above his house did not seem normal and calm. The crashed car on the lawn near the front entrance of his house foretold the chaos within. A detective warned him that the scene inside would be traumatic. The sight of his wife sitting in a pool of blood on the living room floor was a bit more than traumatic. The sight of blood on the walls, on the ceiling, everywhere, was a bit more than traumatic. But the sight of a man's savagely butchered body on the kitchen floor took traumatic to an entirely new level. What happened that fateful evening? Who killed the guy in the kitchen? And by what miracle did his wife survive? What led to that fateful evening was years in the making. From the very beginning, things between husband and wife were not at all what they seemed. Someone in the household was not who they claimed to be. But then, neither was the other someone in the household. As old secrets came to light, it became clear the marriage could not survive. But this is not a story of betrayal, of infidelity. This story goes much deeper than that. This story is about paths that crossed before either of them was born. What began as a boy meets girl, boy falls in love, boy marries girl story, quickly morphed into the terrifying inner workings of an altered mind, foreign intrigue, and courting with assassins story. An organization intentionally brought together two people who never should have even known each other. The fallout resulted in someone’s desperate attempt to cover for a botched covert operation that occurred years earlier. No one had any idea what a colossal mistake that was until it was much too late to reverse course. As things unfolded, a realization emerged that divorce, though not yet on the table, could not be an option. There were too many secrets, too much emotional pain, and too many people working behind the scenes to ensure an unthinkable outcome. One of the two, husband or wife, simply could not to survive.

Download or read book To Build a Black Future written by Christopher Paul Harris and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2023-09-12 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An incisive portrait of how the new Black politics can forge a future centered on collective action, community, and care When #BlackLivesMatter emerged in 2013, it animated the most consequential Black-led mobilization since the civil rights and Black power era. Today, the hashtag turned rallying cry is but one expression of a radical reorientation toward Black politics, protest, and political thought. To Build a Black Future examines the spirit and significance of this insurgency, offering a revelatory account of a new political culture—responsive to pain, suffused with joy, and premised on care—emerging from the centuries-long arc of Black rebellion, a tradition that traces back to the Black slave. Drawing on his own experiences as an activist and organizer, Christopher Paul Harris takes readers inside the Movement for Black Lives (M4BL) to chart the propulsive trajectory of Black politics and thought from the Middle Passage to the present historical moment. Carefully attending to the social forces that produce Black struggle and the contradictions that arise within it, Harris illustrates how M4BL gives voice to an abolitionist praxis that bridges the past, present, and future, outlining a political project at once directed inward to the Black community while issuing an outward challenge to the world. Essential reading for the age of #BlackLivesMatter, this visionary and provocative book reveals how the radical politics of joy, pain, and care, in sharp contrast to liberal political thought, can build a Black future that transcends ideology and pushes the boundaries of our political imagination.
