Download or read book Hunting Season written by James Harkin and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2015-11-10 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on his groundbreaking reporting for Vanity Fair, Hunting Season is award-winning journalist James Harkin's harrowing investigation into the abduction, captivity, and execution of James Foley, at the hands of the masked militant known as "Jihadi John" (Mohammed Emwazi), and the fate of more than two-dozen other ISIS hostages. On August 19, 2014, the jihadist rebel group known as ISIS uploaded a video to YouTube. Entitled "Message to America," the clip depicted the final moments of American journalist James Foley's life--and the gruesome aftermath of his beheading at the hands of a masked executioner. Foley's murder--and the choreographed killings that would follow--captured the world's attention, and the Islamic State's kidnapping campaign exploded into war. Hunting Season is a riveting account of how the world's newest and most powerful terror franchise came to target Western hostages, who was behind it, and why almost no one knew about it until it was too late.

Download or read book Hunted Hunter written by Carlos Siderman and published by . This book was released on 2023-11-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of how one man, for the first time, brought a nation to justice. In 1976, a successful Jewish businessman in Argentina named Jose Siderman was kidnapped again. The first time it was because he was rich, and Marxist guerillas were looking for an enormous ransom ($10,000,000). The second time it was because he was a rich Jew, and Argentina's new Nazi-emulating dictators wanted his money and his life. They tortured him for days while questioning him, but ended up exiling him instead of disappearing him. After his family made a harrowing escape to America, afraid they might be disappeared themselves, Jose started to fight back, telling his story around Florida and California, exposing the atrocities in his homeland. He got Argentina's attention. While on a trip to Italy he was kidnapped a third time, essentially, arrested by police following an Argentine extradition request for Jose. They said Jose committed crimes. Jose argued after an incredible fight and many negotiations to free him, that Argentina wanted him back for more malignant reasons. And Italy agreed. Galvanized by his victory, Jose returned to America and struggled for years to build a case against Argentina. As a foreign country it can't be sued in the U.S. That's when Jose played his hole card: because Argentina persecuted him through the U.S. courts earlier, now it was subject to them itself. The Ninth Circuit agreed and the Supreme Court offered Argentina no relief. "Siderman vs. Argentina" entered the American legal lexicon as a searing vindication of his mistreatment and the pain of so many other victims of human rights violations around the world. He never gave up his odyssey of vindication. Though he spoke little English, was not trained in the law and was rebuffed by hundreds who were, he plotted the legal strategy and captained the legal team that opened a door to the prosecution of human rights abuses committed abroad. Hundreds of plaintiffs would benefit from his precedent, a landmark human rights case.

Download or read book The Cold Vanish written by Jon Billman and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perfect for readers of Jon Krakauer and Douglas Preston, this "authentic and encyclopedic" book examines real-life cases of those who vanish in the wilderness without a trace (Roman Dial)—and those eccentric, determined characters who try to find them. These are the stories that defy conventional logic. The proverbial vanished without a trace incidences, which happen a lot more (and a lot closer to your backyard) than almost anyone thinks. These are the missing whose situations are the hardest on loved ones left behind. The cases that are an embarrassment for park superintendents, rangers and law enforcement charged with Search & Rescue. The ones that baffle the volunteers who comb the mountains, woods and badlands. The stories that should give you pause every time you venture outdoors. Through Jacob Gray's disappearance in Olympic National Park, and his father Randy Gray who left his life to search for him, we will learn about what happens when someone goes missing. Braided around the core will be the stories of the characters who fill the vacuum created by a vanished human being. We'll meet eccentric bloodhound-handler Duff and R.C., his flagship purebred, who began trailing with the family dog after his brother vanished in the San Gabriel Mountains. And there's Michael Neiger North America's foremost backcountry Search & Rescue expert and self-described "bushman" obsessed with missing persons. And top researcher of persons missing on public wildlands Ex-San Jose, California detective David Paulides who is also one of the world's foremost Bigfoot researchers. It's a tricky thing to write about missing persons because the story is the absence of someone. A void. The person at the heart of the story is thinner than a smoke ring, invisible as someone else's memory. The bones you dig up are most often metaphorical. While much of the book will embrace memory and faulty memory—history—The Cold Vanish is at its core a story of now and tomorrow. Someone will vanish in the wild tomorrow. These are the people who will go looking.

And he must admit, his illness has caused him to “lose time” before. What if there’s more to what happened than he’s able to remember? Though haunted by the fear that it might be better for Annabelle if he never finds her, Sean can’t bring himself to let go of her without a fight. To save her, he’ll have to do more than confront his own demons… He’ll have to let them loose. A chilling, deeply suspenseful page-turner set in the 1980s, Hunting Annabelle is a stunning debut that will leave you breathless to the very end.

Book excerpt: Our plans for the June weekend were simple: camp on Friday and Saturday night in a pretty little mountain campground and drive our youth group down to San Juan Capistrano on Sunday for a beach outing. Saturday evening, a group of motorcyclists roared into the campground. Shouting that there were children asleep, the camp manager ordered them to get out. They left as noisily as they had come in. I drifted back to sleep. Bam! Bam! Gunshots jolted me awake! “It won’t work to shoot ’em in the head,” a man’s voice said. “When they do the autopsy, it will show they were shot with a 410.” “Get the rope and turn the lights on this bunch of trees and start here! If you find any little ones, just hang ’em in their bags!” Frantically tearing the back screen from our tent and awaking my twelve-year-old daughter, we began a terrifying two-week flight for help and survival!

Book excerpt: THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “My favorite kind of whodunit, kept me guessing all the way through, and reminiscent of Agatha Christie at her best -- with an extra dose of acid.” -- Alex Michaelides, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Silent Patient Everyone's invited...everyone's a suspect... During the languid days of the Christmas break, a group of thirtysomething friends from Oxford meet to welcome in the New Year together, a tradition they began as students ten years ago. For this vacation, they’ve chosen an idyllic and isolated estate in the Scottish Highlands—the perfect place to get away and unwind by themselves. The trip begins innocently enough: admiring the stunning if foreboding scenery, champagne in front of a crackling fire, and reminiscences about the past. But after a decade, the weight of secret resentments has grown too heavy for the group’s tenuous nostalgia to bear. Amid the boisterous revelry of New Year’s Eve, the cord holding them together snaps, just as a historic blizzard seals the lodge off from the outside world. Two days later, on New Year’s Day, one of them is dead. . . and another of them did it. Keep your friends close, the old adage says. But how close is too close? DON'T BE LEFT OUT. JOIN THE PARTY NOW.
