The astonishing, uplifting story of a real-life Indiana Jones and his humanitarian campaign to use education to combat terrorism in the Taliban’s backyard Anyone who despairs of the individual’s power to change lives has to read the story of Greg Mortenson, a homeless mountaineer who, following a 1993 climb of Pakistan’s treacherous K2, was inspired by a chance encounter with impoverished mountain villagers and promised to build them a school. Over the next decade he built fifty-five schools—especially for girls—that offer a balanced education in one of the most isolated and dangerous regions on earth. As it chronicles Mortenson’s quest, which has brought him into conflict with both enraged Islamists and uncomprehending Americans, Three Cups of Tea combines adventure with a celebration of the humanitarian spirit.

Raylan
Author: Elmore Leonard
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0062119486
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
“Elmore Leonard can write circles around almost anybody active in the crime novel today.” —New York Times Book Review The revered New York Times bestselling author, recognized as “America’s greatest crime writer” (Newsweek), brings back U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, the mesmerizing hero of Pronto, Riding the Rap, and the hit FX series Justified. With the closing of the Harlan County, Kentucky, coal mines, marijuana has become the biggest cash crop in the state. A hundred pounds of it can gross $300,000, but that’s chump change compared to the quarter million a human body can get you—especially when it’s sold off piece by piece. So when Dickie and Coover Crowe, dope-dealing brothers known for sampling their own supply, decide to branch out into the body business, it’s up to U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens to stop them. But Raylan isn’t your average marshal; he’s the laconic, Stetson-wearing, fast-drawing lawman who juggles dozens of cases at a time and always shoots to kill. But by the time Raylan finds out who’s making the cuts, he’s lying naked in a bathtub, with Layla, the cool transplant nurse, about to go for his kidneys. The bad guys are mostly gals this time around: Layla, the nurse who collects kidneys and sells them for ten grand a piece; Carol Conlan, a hard-charging coal-mine executive not above ordering a cohort to shoot point-blank a man who’s standing in her way; and Jackie Nevada, a beautiful sometime college student who can outplay anyone at the poker table and who suddenly finds herself being tracked by a handsome U.S. marshal. Dark and droll, Raylan is pure Elmore Leonard—a page-turner filled with the sparkling dialogue and sly suspense that are the hallmarks of this modern master.

Pages : 263
Book Description
"When hiding behind the scenes is no longer an option..." As an introverted party planner, Emma Toplin’s superpower is to blend. Except on her birthday when she tries to flee the worst public humiliation of her life, but can’t—because someone stole her Parte van. Struggling to shun the media spotlight, prank callers, and her sister, she’s also got a delicious detective on her case who’s a party-favour she doesn’t need. Newly promoted detective, Ryan Lewis, always follow orders, and it’s his job to trap the Parte van. Yet working with Emma blurs his lines of professionalism, stirring the battle between his heart and his badge. But when an uninvited guest threatens to wrench them apart, past secrets are revealed at a party that could be Emma’s last... Unplanned Party is a fun fling, celebrating lives filled with flaws, cocktails, and gallons of glitter. It's the perfect blend of drama, romance, friendship, and love; where its characters (and pets) are flawed and funny, making them perfectly relatable to readers who enjoy their heartfelt romance combined in today's women's fiction. Here are what some of the readers say in their Five Star reviews from Goodreads and Bookbub: “A cast of hilarious characters will make you laugh out loud!” “A very entertaining and upbeat crime solving love story from down under.” “This book was super good…it kept you wanting to read the book in one sitting.” “Love these characters and their screwed up lives!” “A thoroughly enjoyable read with a bit of everything…” “A terrific read… the descriptions of the characters bring them to life and you have lots of laughs along with them.” “This book was good…definitely full of quirky characters.”

As the Wicked Watch
Author: Tamron Hall
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 006303705X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
The first in a thrilling new series from Emmy Award-winning TV Host and Journalist Tamron Hall, As The Wicked Watch follows a reporter as she unravels the disturbing mystery around the deaths of two young Black women, the work of a serial killer terrorizing Chicago. When crime reporter Jordan Manning leaves her hometown in Texas to take a job at a television station in Chicago, she’s one step closer to her dream: a coveted anchor chair on a national network. Jordan is smart and aggressive, with unabashed star-power, and often the only woman of color in the newsroom. Her signature? Arriving first on the scene—in impractical designer stilettos. Armed with a master’s degree in forensic science and impeccable instincts, Jordan has been able to balance her dueling motivations: breaking every big story—and giving a voice to the voiceless. From her time in Texas, she’s covered the vilest of human behaviors but nothing has prepared her for Chicago. Jordan is that rare breed of a journalist who can navigate a crime scene as well as she can a newsroom—often noticing what others tend to miss. Again and again, she is called to cover the murders of Black women, many of them sexually assaulted, most brutalized, and all of them quickly forgotten. All until Masey James—the story that Jordan just can’t shake, despite all efforts. A 15-year-old girl whose body was found in an abandoned lot, Masey has come to represent for Jordan all of the frustration and anger that her job often forces her to repress. Putting the rest of her work and her fraying personal life aside, Jordan does everything she can to give the story the coverage it desperately requires, and that a missing Black child would so rarely get. There’s a serial killer on the loose, Jordan believes, and he’s hiding in plain sight.
