Download or read book Payback for Revenge written by Alex Markman and published by Asteroid Publishing. This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What sacrifice is too big for all-consuming love? What is revenge worth? Are there psychological and moral boundaries beyond which passion does not dare to step? Chantal, a woman with irresistible charms, was a clear-minded, very successful journalist when at the age of 28, she married a financial tycoon who convinced her to try a different lifestyle. Jovan, the 42 years old surgeon from Yugoslavia - an extraordinary man both in appearance and in substance, considered his life a journey to wisdom, to discoveries of life’s meaning and purpose. This journey came to an abrupt end when his daughter, a 14 years old beauty, was abducted and killed in a small town in Montenegro in 1995, while the civil war in Yugoslavia was still in full swing. From this moment on, revenge became the purpose of his life, the obsession, the only justification for his existence. At this crossroad, by a sheer chance, he met Chantal in New York: they fell in love with each other. Chantal had to make a terrible choice: leave her loving husband and life of luxury and go after Jovan and her mission in life - journalism, or stay in comfort and lose her first genuine love and mission. Her hesitation was painful but short. Finding killers was a demanding task for Jovan. Police closed the case claiming that hostile Croats abducted his daughter Lilia. The only witness, though, who later refused to testify, said that he saw how local pimps grabbed the girl on the street and ran away in a car. Both versions lacked credibility, as the autopsy concluded that the girl was a virgin. Soon Chantal discovered something not less horrendous than the war and no less important to report about: the East European prostitution ring, which used Yugoslavia as a hub for trafficking adolescent girls from Russia, Ukraine, and Romania to the affluent West European countries and North America. Again, she witnessed terrifying events when innocent and helpless girls had to go through hell during their short and horrific lives. Jovan discovered the secrets of his daughter’s death and found the killers. The revenge was as brutal as the crime which triggered it. The vengeance and the payback for it ruined Chantal’s and Jovan’s love and changed their lives forever.

Taking readers through the basics of dog psychology and behavior, Cesar shares the inside details of some of his most fascinating cases, using them to illustrate how common behavior issues develop and, more important, how they can be corrected. You'll learn: • What your dog really needs may not be what you’re giving him • Why a dog’s natural pack instincts are the key to your happy relationship • How to relate to your dog on a canine level • There are no “problem breeds,” just problem owners • How to choose a dog who’s right for you and your family • The difference between discipline and punishment • And much more!

Download or read book Climatic Variability in Sixteenth Century Europe and Its Social Dimension written by Christian Pfister and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A multidecadal cooling is known to have occurred in Europe in the final decades of the sixteenth-century. It is still open to debate as to what might have caused the underlying shifts in atmospheric circulation and how these changes affected societies. This book is the fruit of interdisciplinary cooperation among 37 scientists including climatologists, hydrologists, glaciologists, dendroclimatologists, and economic and cultural historians. The known documentary climatic evidence from six European countries is compared to results of tree-ring studies. Seasonal temperature and precipitation are estimated from this data and monthly mean surface pressure patterns in the European area are reconstructed for outstanding anomalies. Results are compared to fluctuations of Alpine glaciers and to changes in the frequency of severe floods and coastal storms. Moreover, the impact of climate change on grain prices and wine production is assessed. Finally, it is convincingly argued that witches at that time were burnt as scapegoats for climatic change.
