Book excerpt: Max is a military veteran and former CIA asset. These days, he's retired from his life of service and is enjoying his middle age while pursuing his passion: high-risk cat burglary for only the wealthiest clients. While hitting the safe of a high-profile target, he stumbles upon a secret room, in which he finds a naked, chained up teenager. His job, with its explicit instructions to only take one specific item to "send a message," goes off the rails when he decides to take matters into his own hands.A little while later, Dean Roberts and Johnny Jones, local Alexandria, Virginia police officers, are sent to check out a crime scene at the home of a U.S. Senator, who has been murdered in what appears to be a burglary gone wrong. When they arrive at the scene, however, they determine that the death is way too gruesome to indicate a surprised burglar. Then they notice a secret chamber off the study with some disturbing furniture and paraphernalia. And what's up with the child-sized lingerie?Retribution by Michael Peck is an exciting and fast-paced novel revolving around Max's efforts to take down a child sex-trafficking ring. The novel switches between several different perspectives: Max, as he leaves a trail of destruction across Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, D.C., the police officers and FBI agents who are desperately trying to keep up, various members of the trafficking ring, and the corrupt government officials who are involved. At the beginning of the novel, the large number of characters was difficult to follow, but as I got to know them better, I grew to appreciate the way their stories were all brilliantly weaved into one cohesive plot. The twists and turns kept me guessing all the way through the book, and the characters' motivations weren't always what they seemed at the outset. The novel did a great job of portraying the good and bad sides of many of the main characters in a way that made them relatable. The plot was complicated, but the ending was satisfying, and all the loose ends were tied up nicely.

Book excerpt: Ex Special Forces soldier Michael "Hawke" Hawkins has spent every day of the last ten years waiting for the moment he would get to watch the life fade from the eyes of the men who brutally murdered his wife, but when he finally gets the break he's been waiting for, the trail leads him to someone he wasn't expecting. After nearly two years of running, 24-year-old Tate Travers has become an expert at hiding...until the day a dangerous stranger shows up looking for vengeance and threatens to destroy the fragile life Tate has managed to build for himself and his five-year-old son. Except the life Tate has been struggling to hold on to started unraveling long before Hawke showed up looking for the same men Tate has been running from...his own father and older brother. Retribution - it's all Hawke has wanted since the day he held his wife's hand as she took her last breath. And he won't give that up for anything or anyone...not even the tormented young man trying to give his little boy a better life. Because Tate is the only one who can lead Hawke to the men he's been searching for. And if it means forcing the young man to confront the past that nearly destroyed him, then so be it. Only the last thing Hawke expects to feel is something besides the hatred that has driven him. And he definitely never expected to feel it for a man. But when it comes down to choosing between the unwanted feelings Tate stirs in him and the revenge he's finally close enough to taste, will Hawke be able to give up the one thing that has kept him going for a second chance at a future he gave up on ever having?

Download or read book Retribution written by Max Hastings and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2009-03-10 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the summer of 1944 it was clear that Japan's defeat was inevitable, but how the drive to victory would be achieved remained unclear. The ensuing drama—that ended in Japan's utter devastation—was acted out across the vast theater of Asia in massive clashes between army, air, and naval forces. In recounting these extraordinary events, Max Hastings draws incisive portraits of MacArthur, Mao, Roosevelt, Churchill, Stalin, and other key figures of the war in the East. But he is equally adept in his portrayals of the ordinary soldiers and sailors caught in the bloodiest of campaigns. With its piercing and convincing analysis, Retribution is a brilliant telling of an epic conflict from a master military historian at the height of his powers.

Book excerpt: Retribution is perhaps the most popular contemporary theory about punishment and has enjoyed enduring appeal as the oldest, even most venerable, penal theory with its strong ancient roots. Retribution is understood in many different ways, but the standard view of retribution is that punishment is justified where it is deserved and an offender should be punished in proportion to his desert. In this volume, retributivism is examined from various critical perspectives, including its diversity, relation with desert, the link between desert and proportionality, retributivist emotions and the idea of mercy. The theory of retribution has been the subject of a revival of interest in recent years and the essays selected for this volume are the leading works on retribution from the dominant international figures in the field.
