Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ryker Powers was the biggest prick I’d ever met. He was also my biggest mistake. He’d taken what he wanted then left, and I detested him for it. Not that the jerk had cared to stick around long enough to know how I felt. Everyone thought he was a perfect gentleman with all his quiet intensity but I knew better. I knew he had a filthy mouth. That he liked things dirty. He may have had people fooled into thinking he was a nice guy but I knew exactly who he was. He was a bad boy who’d ask for a light from the devil himself. And I wanted to see him burn. Until I realized—to my utter horror—that what I really wanted was him. Who was going to get burned now?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drake Powers had to be the most infuriating piece of work I’d met in my entire life. Never mind his gorgeous face, body, and tattoos. That was beside the point. The things that came out of the cocky bastard’s mouth—directed toward me, of course—had my own mouth falling open in shock. His controlling, bad-boy demeanor should’ve had me running in the other direction. But there was something behind that dominant presence of his. Something guarded. And I had to find out what it was. I knew it was probably in my best interest to stay away. But when was I ever one to listen?

Download or read book America s Secret Power written by Loch K. Johnson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1991-03-14 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on hundreds of interviews with CIA officials, national security experts, and legislators, as well as a thorough culling of the archival record, America's Secret Power offers an illuminating and up-to-date picture of the CIA, stressing the difficult balance between the genuine needs of national security and the protection of individual liberties. Loch Johnson, who has studied the workings of the CIA at first hand as a legislative overseer, presents a comprehensive examination of the Agency and its relations with other American institutions, including Congress and the White House, and looks closely at how it pursues its three major missions--intelligence analysis, counterintelligence, and covert action. At once fascinating and sobering, Johnson's book reveals how the best intelligence reports can be distorted or ignored; how covert actions can spin out of control despite extensive safeguards, as in the Iran-Contra scandal; and how the CIA has spied on American citizens in clear violation of its charter. Further, he provides a thorough review of legislative efforts to curb these abuses, and suggests several important ways to achieve the delicate balance between national security and democratic ideals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a woman’s bones are found in the icy dregs of the noxious Nor’ Loch, newly appointed sheriff of Edinburgh, Walter Scott, is called upon. Are these the remains of a drowned witch or religious heretic, or are they perhaps linked to something more recent and sinister? For although Edinburgh is known to be the center of literature, science, and medicine, it is also the haunt of body snatchers who prey upon the living and the dead alike, selling their victims for study by the student physicians at the medical school. When a band of Travelling People is forced to winter near the city, two young women are taken, one from her bed while she sleeps near her family. Justice from the settled people is rarely accorded to gypsies and the Travellers fear they will be murdered one by one by the ghouls stalking their people. A young gypsy named Midge Margret is sure that Scott will care. He befriended her family before and once more he promises to help find the murderer who prowls the snowy forest in a black coach. When a patchwork woman with supernatural strength begins hunting the streets as well, Scott and Midge Margret know the crimes are rooted in bloody dark magic. In order to catch the killer, the butchered victims themselves must testify. By Nebula Award winning author Elizabeth Ann Scarborough. Publisher's Weekly says, "Skillfully cross-stitching history, mystery and old-time urban legend... tension mounts steadily... an artful work."
