Book excerpt: Detective Joe Kavinsky and his bride Sarah are interrupted in their Bermuda honeymoon by a report of the nearby suicide of Sarah's father. In returning home, they receive wedding photos that include several taken by a bodyguard of a notorious drug lord. Tracking down the photographer leads Joe to nearly swallowing poison at a huge shopping mall and a piano player who helps capture the drug network with some fancy notes. Lots of exciting drama occurs as both local and federal authorities team up to "run down" the clever drug lord and his "kingly" gang. Meanwhile, Joe's uncle Al, the newspaper reporter, uncovers a fraudulent DNA examination at a major clinic where the global drug network kingpins visit while pretending to be undergoing medical checkups. With the support of a "very pretty" Muslim girl the terrorists are finally arrested at the mall. Success is bittersweet, however, since Kavinsky learns that a trusted cop was a "mole" for the terrorists... but who is it?

Book Laughing in the Face of Terrorism

Download or read book Laughing in the Face of Terrorism written by Bahadur Tejani and published by BAHADUR TEJANI. This book was released on 2009 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LAUGHING IN THE FACE OF TERRORISM is a collection of five books under a new title making the works affordable and a bargain for teachers and students of literature, culture, diversity seekers and the general public. The search for harmony is a main theme in Tejani's work and here he speaks of it in words destined to be classic: Music has the sweetness of the September sun, the tenderness of a bird call in the woods, the depth of unknown oceans and the serenity of the earth's swift strong glide across space. You will marvel at the incredibly comic mission of the new Indian immigrant in America to teach Americans how to speak English properly. Or rejoice in the friendship between Washington, America's First President and a Muslim boy on Mount Rushmore. Even wonder at Shakespeare committing suicide on the stage. For variety, Tejani teases the women of the world by comparing their scent to the aroma of rain on earth; and exposes the vulnerability of men with satire on their pre-occupation with the 'thermostat between their legs'. In this collection Ba Tejani has set out with mischief in his heart, irreverent wisdom in his hands and a tickling, teasing imagination which carries you on with a smile and a large question. Just what is he upto? What gifts of humanist synthesis does he have in his heart that we emerge refined and delighted and not peeved after reading one of his stories or watching his play? 451 Pages

Book Terror Financing in Kashmir

Download or read book Terror Financing in Kashmir written by Abhinav Pandya and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-12-06 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the layered and complex web of terror financing in Kashmir. It examines the role of multiple actors — including formal and informal, state and non-state, profit and non-profit, and local and international — to delineate the various strands of an intricate financial system. It shows how, over time, these sophisticated networks have largely remained elusive to Indian counter-terrorism agencies and the need for a specialised and focused effort to understand it. Drawing on interviews with confidential sources within terror networks, as well as inputs and intel from security agencies on the ground, the author lays the groundwork for a robust counter-terrorism strategy in Kashmir. This book will be a must read for professionals and researchers in security studies, military and strategic studies, politics and international relations, and South Asian studies.

The volume draws on extensive archival research as well as insightful interviews with significant writers, producers and actors. The book offers detailed analysis of major radio series such as Appointment with Fear, The Man in Black, The Price of Fear and Fear on Four as well as one-off horror plays, comedy-horror and experimental uses of binaural and digital technology in producing uncanny audio.

Book Engaging Terror

    Book Details:
  • Author : Marianne Vardalos
  • Publisher : Universal-Publishers
  • Release : 2009
  • ISBN : 1599424533
  • Pages : 417 pages

Download or read book Engaging Terror written by Marianne Vardalos and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engaging Terror: A Critical and Interdisciplinary Approach is a collection of select extended papers drawn from The Human Condition Series (THCS) conference on Terror that took place in May, 2008. The international scope of the conference drew participants from twenty-three countries including Brazil, Columbia, Cuba, France, Israel, Lebanon, Lithuania, New Zealand, Nigeria, Pakistan, the Philippines, Scotland, Singapore, South Africa, Turkey, and the United Kingdom. The thirty-five essays presented here are a representative sample of the interdisciplinary discussion which sought to analyze popular concepts like 'terrorism' and 'terrorist' as social, political, and psychosocial phenomena. Engaging Terror seeks to reveal the diverse forms of terror that persist in contemporary societies. For instance, cultural forms such as the fine arts, film, literature, mass media, religion, and market economy continue to define and limit rationality and freedom through institutionalized forms of terror. In this way, terror shapes our experiences not only through the politics of nation-building and international relations, but also through the social and ideological production of fear in everyday life. Topics covered in this volume include the representation and production of terror from a multiplicity of sites, ranging from mental health practices and organized religion, to news coverage and musical scores. This book will appeal to both scholars and general readers interested in how seemingly benign forms of terror shape and maintain the contemporary human condition. Reaching beyond mainstream studies on terror as simply an international political phenomenon, this interdisciplinary collection of work multiplies the fields of critical research to broaden the scope of analysis and fundamentally challenge the state of modernity.

Book Defeat  Trauma  Lesson  Israel Between Life and Extinction

Download or read book Defeat Trauma Lesson Israel Between Life and Extinction written by Raphael Israeli and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2014-07-22 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History books are usually written by victors, while the defeated write poetry and words of nostalgia hoping for better days. This volume takes major defeats in Jewish history and tries to describe what happens to a defeated nation, and how in the specific case of Israel and the Jews, the trauma of defeat engenders hope and forces the survivors to learn lessons for the future. The destruction of the two Jewish temples in antiquity, the Holocaust, and the 1973 War serve as case studies to illustrate the problematic. National grief as a result of disasters is a process of recuperation. Drawing lessons learned from the event will help the nation come out of trauma. Survivors commemorating the dead also help that process.
