Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Widdershins Adventures come to a thrilling conclusion in an action-packed fantasy in which the young outlaw with a heart of gold (and the pesky voice of a god in her ear) returns home to face her destiny... After almost a year away from the grand city of Davillon, wandering thief Widdershins has finally come to terms with the pain and grief that drove her to leave. When she returns, all she can hope is that her old friends can forgive her hasty actions. But even that may be too much to ask...because home is not what it used to be. The entire city is on edge, with unrest and rumors of upheaval spreading through the darkened streets, and Shins is shocked to discover that she already knows the person behind the strife all too well—her dreaded nemesis, Lisette Suvagne. Thanks to an unholy bargain with otherworldly powers, the vindictive Lisette is far more dangerous than before—and far too formidable even for Shins and her personal god, Olgun, to confront alone. Now, for the sake of her friends, her city, and her own soul, Shins must gather allies from every corner of Davillon—lawful, unlawful, and seriously unlawful—if she hopes to face the greatest challenge of her life. Because the greatest challenge of Widdershins’ life might also be the end of it...

Download or read book A Burglar s Guide to the City written by Geoff Manaugh and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “deeply researched and brilliantly written” blueprint to the criminal possibilities in the world all around us (Warren Ellis, author of Gun Machine). At the core of A Burglar’s Guide to the City is an unexpected and thrilling insight: how any building transforms when seen through the eyes of someone hoping to break into it. Studying architecture the way a burglar would, Geoff Manaugh takes readers through walls, down elevator shafts, into panic rooms, and out across the rooftops of an unsuspecting city. Encompassing nearly two thousand years of heists and break-ins, the book draws on the expertise of reformed bank robbers, FBI special agents, private security consultants, the LAPD Air Support Division, and architects past and present. Whether discussing how to pick padlocks, climb the walls of high-rise apartments, find gaps in a museum’s surveillance routine, or discuss home invasions in ancient Rome, A Burglar’s Guide to the City ensures readers will never enter a bank again without imagining how to loot the vault, or walk down the street without planning the perfect getaway. Praise for A Burglar’s Guide to the City “This burglar’s guide isn’t for ordinary smash-and-grab burglars, it’s for the rest of us—who steal in, steal out, and get away with glorious dreams. A spectacularly fun read.” —Robert Krulwich, cohost of Radiolab “Who knew that urban studies could be so riveting? Geoff Manaugh excels at finding new, illicit, and fresh angles on a subject as loved as it is overexposed—the city. In his new book, elegant, perverse, sinuous supervillains maneuver and master the city like parkour champions. I see the TV series already.” —Paola Antonelli, design curator, MoMA

She’s certain she hasn’t seen the last of the infamous cat burglar Quinn. But she never expected him to turn up at her apartment one dark night in desperate need of her help—help she can’t refuse. The mysterious master thief is playing a dangerous game, and it’s a game that just might get him killed. With Morgan’s help, Quinn sets a trap intended to catch someone far more elusive…and more deadly…than a thief. But an unseen threat shadows him in the fog-shrouded San Francisco night, an unknown adversary more cunning than any he has yet encountered. Now, just when the stakes are higher than even Quinn can imagine, no one can be trusted—and everything’s at risk.

Download or read book The Falcon Thief written by Joshua Hammer and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “well-written, engaging detective story” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) about a rogue who trades in rare birds and their eggs—and the wildlife detective determined to stop him. On May 3, 2010, an Irish national named Jeffrey Lendrum was apprehended at Britain’s Birmingham International Airport with a suspicious parcel strapped to his stomach. Inside were fourteen rare peregrine falcon eggs snatched from a remote cliffside in Wales. So begins a “vivid tale of obsession and international derring-do” (Publishers Weekly), following the parallel lives of a globe-trotting smuggler who spent two decades capturing endangered raptors worth millions of dollars as race champions—and Detective Andy McWilliam of the United Kingdom’s National Wildlife Crime Unit, who’s hell bent on protecting the world’s birds of prey. “Masterfully constructed” (The New York Times) and “entertaining and illuminating” (The Washington Post), The Falcon Thief will whisk you away from the volcanoes of Patagonia to Zimbabwe’s Matobo National Park, and from the frigid tundra near the Arctic Circle to luxurious aviaries in the deserts of Dubai, all in pursuit of a man who is reckless, arrogant, and gripped by a destructive compulsion to make the most beautiful creatures in nature his own. It’s a story that’s part true-crime narrative, part epic adventure—and wholly unputdownable until the very last page.

Book excerpt: Nothing is overdone and not a word is out of place in this auspicious debut," wrote Kirkus in a starred review of Instead of Three Wishes, the first book by Megan Whalen Turner. Her second book more than fulfills that promise. The king's scholar, the magus, believes he knows the site of an ancient treasure. To attain it for his king, he needs a skillful thief, and he selects Gen from the king's prison. The magus is interested only in the theif's abilities. What Gen is interested in is anyone's guess. Their journey toward the treasure is both dangerous and difficult, lightened only imperceptibly by the tales they tell of the old gods and goddesses. Megan Whalen Turner weaves Gen's stories and Gen's story together with style and verve in a novel that is filled with intrigue, adventure, and surprise.

Download or read book Con Game written by Lionel S. Lewis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bernard Madoff's financial fraud was global, an enormous amount of money was involved, and thousands of people and hundreds of institutions were swindled. Madoff's con game was a Ponzi scheme—an investment that pays returns to early investors from money acquired from subsequent investors.This case study of the Madoff scheme looks at the effects of his crimes on the victims. Elements from a theoretical framework put forward by Erving Goffman provide a perspective for understanding the development and the aftermath of Madoff's con. For example, as Goffman would have put it, Madoff's marks were not cooled out. Many did not accept the fact that they were victims of a con game and publicly clamored for sympathy, restitution, and for public officials to share their perspective.Inside men, ropers, outside men, and victims are at the core of con games. Lionel S. Lewis emphasizes that it is important to understand a con game's characteristics so as to grasp how it operates. The Madoff fraud includes elements of a variety of con games. For a comprehensive study of this economic crime, the case study must be seen as part of the broader social system. Considerably more is known about the dynamics of con games than about Ponzi schemes, and this fact frames this book's approach. To better understand what Madoff did, who was central in keeping his scheme alive, whom he defrauded, and how they reacted, this work is as invaluable as it is illuminating.

It provides a precise interpretation, discussion and mathematical analysis for a wide range of "game-like problems in economics, sociology, strategic studies and war.There is first an informal introduction to game theory, which can be understood by non-mathematicians, which covers the basic ideas of extensive form, pure and mixed strategies and the minimax theorem. The general theory of non-cooperative games is then given a detailed mathematical treatment in the second chapter. Next follows a "first class account of linear programming, theory and practice, terse, rigorous and readable, which is applied as a tool to matrix games and economics from duality theory via the equilibrium theorem, with detailed explanations of computational aspects of the simplex algorithm.The remaining chapters give an unusually comprehensive but concise treatment of cooperative games, an original account of bargaining models, with a skillfully guided tour through the Shapley and Nash solutions for bimatrix games and a carefully illustrated account of finding the best threat strategies. - Balances a light touch with a rigorous yet economical account of the theory of games and bargaining models - Shows basic ideas of extensive form, pure and mixed strategies, the minimax theorem, non-cooperative and co-operative games, and a ''first class'' account of linear programming, theory and practice - Based on a series of lectures given by the author in the theory of games at Royal Holloway College

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A THIEF’S FORGIVENESS” This is the story of a man who spent a good part of his life running from his erroneous perception of God, which resulted in living nearly eleven years within the confinement of prisons, one of which was the famous Leavenworth... In this story you’ll experience first hand what it’s like to be in prison and solitary confinement, to escape and be captured, to have attack dogs hunt you down ready to sink their teeth into your flesh, to be shot at and hide in the dark like a trapped animal while corrupt guards search for you. This story will keep you on the edge of your seat! You’ll try to predict all the twists and turns it’ll take, but you’ll be wrong. That’s because it’s real life not make believe... Just when you think this young man has wised up, he does something else outlandish! Though the road he chose was rough and perilous, he finally found his salvation and freedom both spiritually and physically... Don’t be surprised if tears come to your eyes when you read about the phenomenal, moving spiritual experience that literally saved his life; but the story doesn’t end there! Even after he finds his salvation he makes unbelievable decisions that will shock you! Some of them will make you want to shake him to his senses, others will make you laugh and rejoice! When you’ve finished reading this remarkable story, there will be a chapter explaining further how to find happiness on earth and live the life God intended you to have. It’s a manual, if you will, on how to live successfully and joyously... This is the manual everyone has always said we didn’t come with when we were born. The truth is, we did come with it! It’s actually part of our innate programming. However, if it’s not nurtured and cultivated while we’re growing up, we lose a great deal of it, if not all, by the time we’ve reached adulthood. In order to relearn what God originally programmed in our “spiritual hard drive,” we must change our erroneous perception and get rid of the insatiable, controlling ego! That can only be accomplished with the help of a Higher Spiritual Power, which the book clearly guides you on. Author Marolyn A. Derby, volunteered to write this true-life story about Irving Eugene King, in order to help him get his message out to others like himself... To give the book more meaning and depth she chose to use her spiritual and counseling background to offer tools and positive solutions on nearly every page. These spiritual tools and solutions will assist all who read it to find the answers they need concerning life, through the knowledge and understanding of “The Universal (God) Laws” that govern each of us; as surely as the law of gravity... What’s more, this book will help everyone to know and understand themselves and others, as well as the teachings of Christ, in a whole new way! Once you’ve read “A Thief’s Forgiveness” you will have a more positive outlook about life and know how to live it honorably! What’s more, you will no longer wonder about who you are or why you’re here; you will know! Marolyn A. Derby is a trained spiritual councilor, minister, speaker and health practioner of thirty-six years, who has dedicated her life to documenting and practicing the Universal God Laws and helping others to benefit by doing the same. The tools in this book have been tried and proven over and over again to work! They are precise, easy to understand and simple to follow, because they are already an innate part of you... This book is for everyone who is tired of living in fear and uncertainty. It will show you how to turn your life around for the better and teach you how to forgive and be forgiven, to love and be loved. It will even help you conquer mental and physical illness and give you inner peace... You will learn through the examples given, that when we misuse the Laws of the Universe, they end up biting us where the sun don
