When Ali Muhammad a school teacher in rural Afghanistan leaves his family to go to work one Tuesday morning, he has no idea he is about to fall victim to the most sinister conspiracy in the world today. In a terrible turn to what should have been an ordinary day he is abducted by gunmen, handed over to the Americans and in the space of a few hours shipped to Guantanamo as a terror suspect. Unknown to the rest of the world there exists a secret cold war bunker in Guantanamo called Sector V. It has been handed over to a group of Christian Fundamentalists headed by an enigmatic figure simply known as The Shephard. They use this site to torture, brainwash and ultimately convert the detainees to their twisted version of the Christian faith. But all is not as it seems The Shephard also has an eye on the American soldiers. The Final Crusade follows the battle between Ali Muhammad and his nemesis Jonathan Miller an ambitious American captain who has been tasked to convert the Muslim at any cost. What Miller does not know is that his soul is also at stake.

Truth is the cry of all, but the game of the few, and Rudy Sammarco, a British lawyer of mixed Italo-Somali origin and a writer manqué, will soon discover that nothing is what it seems. His wife, who to all appearances is so attracted to him, has dumped him for a fat cat. Then it’s a coup de foudre with Paola, the graceful, enchanting Tuscan girl with a touch of Renaissance glamour who has just showed up at his office for legal advice as a victim of brutal harassment: but he cannot tell if she too feels for him, or is still bewitched by her psychopathic persecutor, or worse, has had a fling with his own father. He cherishes the memory of his mother, who killed herself, but Rudy wants to know why —because his father walked out on her, or because she loved his uncle, a physician turned herdsman who has downshifted to the countryside?

This ambitious work analyzes the past century of immigration policy in the United States in an effort to create a coherent framework for reform. After reviewing the last century of immigration law, Falit goes on to present a morally and economically based lens for analysis. Falit then uses this lens to analyze recently implemented immigration policies, focusing largely on the era following IRCA. In the last chapter, Falit proffers well-reasoned policy recommendations. This innovative and carefully researched novel was originally presented to the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University as an undergraduate thesis. If one is looking to become acquainted with the immigration policy debate in the U.S., including relevant historical data, then look no further than Falit's book.

When Jim Henderson wins over five million pounds on the lottery, he decides to buy an uninhabited Scottish island. But instead of making it a millionaire's paradise, he sets about establishing a self-supporting community to bring it back to life. First he advertises for volunteers who will share his dream of living simply and working hard for no money – and he has a surprising response. Practical people like farmers, an engineer and a vet are eager to make a new start away from the stresses of the mainland, but Jim also accepts a topless model (with other attributes), a cockney tearaway and a single teenage mum.

Best of all, two former crofters sign up to move back. The great day arrives, the islands flag is raised and the chosen fifty begin their huge task of settling in together. Ambitious plans are laid for the future, while romances spring up, friendships are formed and quarrels break out. Can the idealistic experiment succeed in this harsh and materialistic age?

When his business partner, Jake Collins, is murdered, Duncan Scott, a successful financial advisor, becomes a prime suspect. Senior Sargent, Tony Vascelli and Senior Detective, Mark Newman, have their work cut out, sifting through the evidence of a blood speared jacket, matching Jake’s DNA, and a threatening letter sent to him, just prior to his death.

Jake’s life passions were women and gambling. After a run of bad luck, his debts had rocketed to half a million dollars and Danny Brewster, the casino boss, got a little jumpy and started yelling for his money. Scott’s son, Zac, throws away college, for life in the drugs-and-brothels fast lane. Brewster, and his associate, Mike Truscott, take the kid under their wings and prime him for a career in their seedy world. When Zac gets in over his head he turns to Julie Anderson, his father’s second, but now divorced, wife.
