Download or read book The Unknown Courier written by Ian Colvin and published by Biteback Publishing. This book was released on 2016-11-17 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 30 April 1943, the drowned corpse of Major William Martin washed up on the coast of Spain. In what appeared to be a stroke of grave misfortune for the British, he was found to be carrying top-secret plans for the invasion of Italy. Truth, however, is often stranger than fiction: the plans, as well as the identity of the Major himself, were fake - part of a secret British intelligence ruse called 'Operation Mincemeat', which misled Hitler, causing him to divert his forces away from the Allied target of Sicily. Journalist Ian Colvin became fascinated by tales of this audacious scheme and decided to investigate further. His search led him to Madrid, Gibraltar, Seville and finally to a grave at Huelva. The resulting book, originally published in 1953, is a breathtaking account of Colvin's journey, involving German ex-intelligence officers, Spanish generals, flamenco dancers and even a frogman pathologist specialising in drowned bodies. With its thrilling insights into what turned out to be one of the most successful wartime deceptions ever attempted, The Unknown Courier inspired Ben Macintyre's bestselling Operation Mincemeat. Colvin's lively account looks beyond the military machinations and considers the mysterious identity of the unknown courier - who was this man who, after his own death, changed the course of the Second World War?

Download or read book In Sunlight or In Shadow written by Lawrence Block and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-12-06 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A truly unprecedented literary achievement by author and editor Lawrence Block, a newly-commissioned anthology of seventeen superbly-crafted stories inspired by the paintings of Edward Hopper, including Jeffery Deaver, Joyce Carol Oates, Stephen King, Lee Child, and Robert Olen Butler, among many others. "Edward Hopper is surely the greatest American narrative painter. His work bears special resonance for writers and readers, and yet his paintings never tell a story so much as they invite viewers to find for themselves the untold stories within." So says Lawrence Block, who has invited seventeen outstanding writers to join him in an unprecedented anthology of brand-new stories: In Sunlight or In Shadow. The results are remarkable and range across all genres, wedding literary excellence to storytelling savvy. Contributors include Stephen King, Joyce Carol Oates, Robert Olen Butler, Michael Connelly, Megan Abbott, Craig Ferguson, Nicholas Christopher, Jill D. Block, Joe R. Lansdale, Justin Scott, Kris Nelscott, Warren Moore, Jonathan Santlofer, Jeffery Deaver, Lee Child, and Lawrence Block himself. Even Gail Levin, Hopper’s biographer and compiler of his catalogue raisonée, appears with her own first work of fiction, providing a true account of art theft on a grand scale and told in the voice of the country preacher who perpetrated the crime.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solace in Verse was penned by the author in the last few years after he retired and while living in Costa Blanca, Spain. The majority of Migel Jayasinghe's poems are his response to this new environment, while others hark back to his origins in Sri Lanka. A few touch on contemplative and philosophical themes. One critic commented that these "pages reflect an imagination that is at times playful and at others serious, but always expressed with the utmost clarity and accuracy." Migel Jayasinghe grew up in British Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) and was educated in English since the age of seven. At the age of 26, he left his position as a sub-inspector of police and emigrated to the United Kingdom. Eventually, he found his vocation as an occupational psychologist after acquiring two university degrees over a period of time. Since retirement, he has devoted himself to creative writing.
