Book Description
Ten years after a top-secret mission in Afghanistan, retired NYPD Detective and Navy SEAL Michael Keough finds himself about to hit rock bottom. He's divorced from his wife and instead married to the bottle. Then, on a cool fall evening, a volley of gunfire erupts outside his apartment. When he discovers his partner mortally wounded, it changes everything. As the dust settles, Keough learns that three of the six people involved in the mission are dead. A fourth is missing. Keough can't help but wonder if the rounds that cut down his partner were meant for him. First Grade Detective, and media darling, Rocco Locatelli catches the case. He vows to follow the evidence wherever it leads. Locatelli, however, is ordered by department brass to stand down and close out the investigation. Having gone up against the department previously, Locatelli has been labeled a renegade - a designation he embraces. Locatelli pushes back against the department's hierarchy in search of the truth; meanwhile, Keough is forced into a life and death situation and will have to face the consequences of his actions a decade earlier.

It's been four years since seventeen-year-old Mitchell Johnson was hit by a bus and inexplicably ended up in the Underworld. Hell is miserable, but Mitchell knows things could be worse. After all, he has the coveted job of The Devil's intern--plus three close friends who keep him from dwelling too much on his untimely demise. Still, he'd rather be living. So when Mitchell discovers that his boss is in possession of a legendary time-travel mechanism called a Viciseometer, he starts forming a plan. With a device like that, Mitchell realizes, he could escape Hell, revisit his death, and prevent it altogether. Getting his hands on the device turns out to be easy. But preventing his friends from accompanying him--and protecting them from whatever it is that's stalking them through time--is going to be impossible.

Book Description
Oh, hi there. Are you an adult, and still like anime? If you like a satire within a serious fiction, then this might be for you. We follow a mortal named, Yosei Tenshi, embarking to a new world as she discovers her identity, her friends, and her purpose throughout her journey in this action-packed, anime-inspired, fantasy. Yosei finds herself in constant danger, with villains and Kaiju taking the planet hostage. To make matters worse, the devils in the Underworld are restless, as they wreak havoc and invade the world of our adventurer. Perilous times await Yosei as she uncovers Hell's unholy plan and the rise of the ever infamous Satan. With the battle between Heaven and Hell in sight, can Yosei protect her world and beyond? Find out next time... in this book, if you read it. Did I mention it had hidden satire? Thus, become indulged and amused in interactive brain teasers as satire is lathered all within. Can you find all hidden meanings and topics within this book while still being immersed in this story-rich epic? *There is mature and graphic material in this novel, such as gore and subjective topics. It's also not as comedic of a satire as one would assume. It's also not that offensive, but... Reader discretion is advised.

Making News at The New York Times
Author: Nikki Usher
Publisher: University of Michigan Press
ISBN: 0472900226
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
Making News at The New York Times is the first in-depth portrait of the nation’s, if not the world's, premier newspaper in the digital age. It presents a lively chronicle of months spent in the newsroom observing daily conversations, meetings, and journalists at work. We see Page One meetings, articles developed for online and print from start to finish, the creation of ambitious multimedia projects, and the ethical dilemmas posed by social media in the newsroom. Here, the reality of creating news in a 24/7 instant information environment clashes with the storied history of print journalism, and the tensions present a dramatic portrait of news in the online world. This news ethnography brings to bear the overarching value clashes at play in a digital news world. The book argues that emergent news values are reordering the fundamental processes of news production. Immediacy, interactivity, and participation now play a role unlike any time before, creating clashes between old and new. These values emerge from the social practices, pressures, and norms at play inside the newsroom as journalists attempt to negotiate the new demands of their work. Immediacy forces journalists to work in a constant deadline environment, an ASAP world, but one where the vaunted traditions of yesterday's news still appear in the next day's print paper. Interactivity, inspired by the new user-computer directed capacities online and the immersive Web environment, brings new kinds of specialists into the newsroom, but exacts new demands upon the already taxed workflow of traditional journalists. And at time where social media presents the opportunity for new kinds of engagement between the audience and media, business executives hope for branding opportunities while journalists fail to truly interact with their readers.
