Pages : 411
Book Description
Two similar paths colliding turns into one inevitable outcome… As a state police corporal, Owen Decker is no stranger to working undercover. Now, as a member of the Tri-State Federal Drug Task Force, his latest assignment is to wear a prospect cut and infiltrate the Deadly Demons MC. Unlike previous undercover assignments, this one is personal. After his sister’s fatal overdose, Decker was left to pick up the pieces and raise his young niece as his own. However, he’s not the only one determined to help take down the meth traffickers. Out of desperation, Sloane Parrish finds herself going head to head with the notorious MC when her drug-addicted sister, Sadie, gets tangled up with them. Despite being in over her head, Sloane’s still willing to risk everything—including her own safety—to save her baby sister before it’s too late. Unfortunately, the Deadly Demons have no limits when it comes to protecting both their club and very profitable enterprise. So when the people Decker loves end up in the outlaw MC’s crosshairs, he regrets the day he volunteered for this assignment. But he vows not to be the only one, he’ll make sure they regret that day, too. Note: Beyond the Badge: Decker is the third book in the Blue Avengers MC series. It’s HIGHLY recommended to read this six-book action/adventure series in order due to the continuing story arcs (subplots). However, each book focuses on a different couple who gets their HEA. This series has no cheating or relationship cliffhangers.

The Quinoa Bust

Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520401719
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
"High in the Peruvian altiplano, 13,000 feet above sea level, quinoa's rise to global stardom was pitched as an unparalleled sustainable development opportunity that heralded a brighter future for rural communities devastated by decades of rural-urban migration, civil war, and state neglect. Based in a longitudinal ethnography centered around Puno, Peru, the main quinoa production area in the world's chief quinoa exporting country, The Quinoa Bust traces the social, ecological, technological, and political work that went into transforming a humble Andean grain into a development miracle crop, and highlights that project's unintended consequences. The Quinoa Bust shows how even efforts based in the best of intentions - to counteract the homogenization of global food supply, empower small-scale farmers, revalue local food cultures, and adapt agricultural systems to climate change - can generate new kinds of oppressions. At a time when so-called "forgotten foods" are increasingly positioned as sustainable development tools, The Quinoa Bust offers a cautionary tale of fleeting benefits and ambivalent results"--

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 791
Book Description
Karl Jommers is a straight-shooting therapist committed to helping blue-collar men overcome their reluctance to seek counseling, a mission instilled in him after the suicide of his steelworker father. After a cop is set up to be shot, Jommers must evaluate the two police officers involved. They both offer conflicting accounts, but neither is lying. Their divergent perspectives are blurred by their personal anxieties and politics. Where one sees acts of local corruption, the other envisions a government conspiracy that includes covert dispersion of anxiogenic chemicals. Jommers methodically tries to disentangle the discordance, but is faced with a quandary. He can’t square his patients’ differing views without first discerning the truth of what happened. But stepping outside his domain to investigate may jeopardize his faltering practice and possibly his life. As he labors to clear the angst-fogged lenses of others, he is forced to question the clarity of his own perception.
