Book Description
“With a rich cast of characters buffeted by love, betrayal and loyalty, glamour and conflict, this is Vincenzi at her best.” —Woman & Home In 1950s London, Tom Knelston is charismatic, charming, with a passion for politics and reform. He is a man with ambition—and someone to watch. His wife Alice, a former nurse, shares his ideals. It seems they are the perfect match. Then, out of the blue, Tom meets an old childhood acquaintance, the beautiful and unhappily married Diana Southcott, a fashion model. In many ways, she is everything Tom fights against, but she is also irresistible and so, flirting with danger, they embark on an affair that is potentially damaging to both. And when his child becomes ill, Tom is forced to make decisions about his principles, his career, his marriage, and, most of all, his love for his child. A Question of Trust is a vintage Penny Vincenzi novel: rich in characterization, life-changing decisions, love, desire, and conflict. Praise for Penny Vincenzi “The doyenne of the modern blockbuster.” —Glamour “Soap opera? You bet—but with her well-drawn characters and engaging style, Vincenzi keeps things humming.” —People “Nobody writes smart, page-turning commercial women’s fiction like Vincenzi.” —USA Today “Will draw you in against your better judgment and keep you awake reading all night.” —The Boston Globe “Vincenzi does it again with another captivating and entertaining family saga that combines power, riches, lies, and greed . . . For fans of Barbara Taylor Bradford and Danielle Steel.” —Library Journal

Book Description
* Published in association with the Risk Management Association of the USA (RMA), the Association of Insurance and Risk Managers (AIRMIC), and the Institute of Risk Management (IRM), * Will stimulate the thinking of executives and leave them wanting to do something about it (and give them the means to start) * A topical, and increasingly important, issue reflected in recent scandals (Enron, Marconi), government responses (e.g. the Combined Code in the UK), and the continuing growth in consumerism An organization's own reputation is a valuable asset that is often insufficiently managed, if it is managed at all. This book not only outlines its importance, but it presents a new and insightful definition of the risk and proposes an approach for managing it properly. For the first time, a whole range of current issues (scandals and frauds, government legislation on risk management and reporting, the growth of consumerism, etc.) is targeted in a single logical argument on how to deal with it. Aimed at directors and senior executives, professional risk managers, consultants and professional risk advisers, and students in advanced courses.

Book Description
[This convenience copy of the official report by the UK Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation, made available under OGLv3 on a cost-only basis] Modern communications networks can be used by the unscrupulous for purposes ranging from cyber-attack, terrorism and espionage to fraud, kidnap and child sexual exploitation. A successful response to these threats depends on entrusting public bodies with the powers they need to identify and follow suspects in a borderless online world. But trust requires verification. Each intrusive power must be shown to be necessary, clearly spelled out in law, limited in accordance with international human rights standards and subject to demanding and visible safeguards. The current law is fragmented, obscure, under constant challenge and variable in the protections that it affords the innocent. It is time for a clean slate. This Report aims to help Parliament achieve a world-class framework for the regulation of these strong and vital powers.

A witty, fast-paced thriller with a dash of mathematics and a large dose of danger Life is not going smoothly for Tom Winscombe. His girlfriend Dorothy has vanished, taking with her all the equipment and money of the company she ran with her friend Ali. Now Tom and Ali are forced to eke out an awkward shared bedsit existence while they try to work out what she is up to. Meanwhile, Tom has other things on his mind, including how to untangle his father from a cryptocurrency scam, how to break into a hospital in order to interrogate an old acquaintance and what is the significance of the messages he’s been receiving from Rufus Fairbanks’s LinkedIn account. Tom and Ali’s investigations lead them in a host of unexpected and frankly dangerous directions, involving a pet python, an offshore stag do and an improbable application of the Fibonacci sequence.
