Book Description
A “fast-paced, high-energy” space adventure that is part sardonic heist caper and part homage to science fiction B-movies of the 1970s (Booklist) “Five awesome and entertaining words to describe this one: Bank heist set in space. Yes, please.” —io9 In the year 2778, Jimmy Vik is feeling dissatisfied. After busting his ass for assorted interstellar mining outfits for close to two decades, downsizing is in the wind, his ex-girlfriend/supervisor is climbing up his back, and daily Jimmy wonders if he’s played his last good hand. So when Jimmy stumbles upon a significant gold pocket during a routine procedure on Kardashev 7-A, he believes his luck may have changed—larcenously so. But smuggling the gold “off rock” won’t be easy. To do it, Jimmy will have to contend with a wily criminal partner, a gorgeous covert assassin, the suspicions of his ex, and the less than honorable intentions of an encroaching, rival mining company. As the clock ticks down, treachery and betrayal loom, the body count rises, and soon Jimmy has no idea who to trust.

Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
Marvin Heemeyer was a blue-collar man whose greatest joy in life was to see his muffler-repair shop prosper. When he felt the government of Granby, Colorado, was conspiring against him and the success of his business, he decided to take action. He did not take his vengeance by walking into the town hall with a gun. Nor did he build bombs and deliver them to local politicians. No, Marvin was more ingenious than that. He put his welding skills to work. In so doing, Marvin Heemeyer made history as one of the most original, complex, controversial, and misunderstood criminals in history. Malice is the story of his life leading up to his one-of-a-kind crime. Exhaustively researched, author Liam Llewellyn portrays the story in its entirety, then poses an alternative interpretation. Malice challenges the reader to ask such questions as: Do governments conspire against individuals? In the wake of enormous tragedy, do governments tell the truth? What is a criminal? Do two wrongs make a right?
