Book Description
“Almost unbearable suspense. Leonard has produced another winner.” —People A wild ride with “the coolest, hottest writer in America” (Chicago Tribune), Bandits has everything Elmore Leonard fans love: non-stop thrills, unexpected twists and turns, unforgettable characters, and the most razor-sharp dialogue being rapidly exchanged anywhere in the crime fiction genre. Leonard stands tall among the all-time greats (John D. MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, James M. Cain) and towers far above most of the writers currently plying the noir fiction trade. The master who created U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, currently of the hit TV series Justified, is at the top of his game, ensnaring readers in an ingenious plot hatched by a former jewel thief and a radical ex-nun to scam millions from a sadistic Nicaraguan colonel. In fact, the Philadelphia Inquirer says Bandits “may well be his best.” Read it and decide for yourself.

Book Description
My Book of Urban Poetry showcases the different types of poems written by Brian Black Cowboy Montgomery. In his new book, the author has separated his poetry into three different sections. The first part, The Romantic Side of B, delivers some truly erotic prose. For the Hero Within Us features inspirational poems, while the final section, Welcome to the Dark Side, delves into Montgomery's dark and brooding verse. I credit my supportive and loving girlfriend, Latasha, and my dysfunctional family for providing me my inspiration for my poems, he says. Looks like I have a good, bad and ugly thing going on, but I like it because I want the readers to understand what they're reading and the meaning behind my pieces. For the good, the bad and the ugly, check out the symbolic and versatile verses that constitute the Black Cowboy's sweet and dark pieces.

Book Description
Risk Bandits: Rescuing Risk Management from Tokenism provides directors and executives with a unique yet highly warranted insight into poorly understood organisational risk management practices. As respected business practitioners with extensive experience in meaningful risk management, authors Rob Hogarth and Tony Pooley, have teamed up to turn a clear and unblinking eye upon typical, contemporary organisational risk management and present a take-no-prisoners critique of its often shaky processes. This book offers directors and executives a must-read critique of typical organisational risk management and proposes an alternative for grounding organisational risk management practices on a solid foundation that protects and creates value. It is not often that I read a book on risk and find myself saying here, here as I turn the pagesJean Cross, Emeritus Prof. in Risk, University of NSW I think this is an excellent book and industry is long overdue for the truth, I cant wait to get my risk managers reading it.
