- The Fentanyl Scourge in America
183,95 kr. The Carpenters, an American family. Mom and Dad have lived their lives in Ohio and retired to Florida. Three offspring, all out of the nest and on successful career paths. Two girls and a boy. The family is close, even though they are apart geographically. Mom and Dad are active, fit, seniors living the American dream. Why and how could they both be laid flat on their backs? Tish, stone-cold dead, and Arthur comatose? What could have caused this tragedy? Two thousand miles away El Mencho, the cartel King, smiled. Another bunch of Gringos would be affected by his product. He didn't care. His growing fentanyl profit margin caused his smile What could the Americans possibly do that would affect his newest, most promising, income stream? The US government was caught up in a quandary because of their border policy. They were weak, ineffective, and even better for him, they had no vision. No, his billions in fentanyl profits were safe, and secure, as long as he keeps flooding the border with his product. El Mencho was dead wrong; but how could he know? He hadn't counted on the victims' families fighting back.

- Sailors in the Big Apple
173,95 kr. Rear Admiral Sam Wilson-Carter was hopping mad but trying her best not to show it. Three times in the past months the bonehead she worked for had totally misinterpreted clear and unequivocal intelligence data and jumped to the wrong conclusion. Bosnia, the Khobar Towers attack and the North Korean nuclear deal. He'd been on the wrong side of them all and it had taken her patient hand-holding to make him see the real-world truth and keep him out of serious trouble with the President. If he flubbed up again she had half an inkling to let him take his own medicine.

108,95 kr. Questions and Answers is a collection of thirteen contemporary stories about men's relationships with women. Most of the stories are written from a male perspective and encompass many of the emotions that men feel but seldom talk about. Dan in 'Highlands' runs away from a cycle of failed love-affairs to the mountains of Ethiopia; Robbie in 'Bleed' struggles with the complexity of an indistinct relationship; Finn in 'Favourites' blurs the line between friends and lovers; Sam in 'Cracks in the wall' experiences the fragility of love; the protagonist in 'The menu' considers the consequences of infidelity. In all relationships there are questions and answers but - like people in relationships and those in these short stories - they are not necessarily connected to each other.

278,95 kr. Wiltshire is particularly lucky in the variety and quality of its chapels, which range from tiny country meeting houses of traditional gable-ended design to large town churches with Classical facades and space for 1000 or more worshippers in their galleried interiors. This book documents them. Introductory chapters describe the development of nonconformity in the county and the way chapel design has evolved in the three centuries since the first were built. These are followed by a gazetteer describing each of the almost 500 chapels still standing, with details of their appearance and history. With over 250 photographs in addition to the authoritative text, this book provides the definitive guide to the history and design of these fascinating buildings.

- a Guide and Gazetteer
182,95 kr. Gate lodges are amongst the most attractive of all small buildings, full of architectural style to reflect the grand country houses whose entrances they guard. They are easy to spot, nearly all being sited alongside public roads, and they survive in surprisingly large numbers. They are a treasure, both for the appeal of the buildings themselves and for their many historical associations. Yet they are not much studied and not much appreciated, a serious omission from architectural history. This book fills the gap, for Wiltshire at least, with a comprehensive study of all the county's 300 plus lodges. Preliminary chapters describe how gate lodges came about, their architecture and how they developed over time. The lodges to the great estates are described in the context of estate history; a tour of the county highlights many of the most interesting other lodges, and further chapters discuss the lodges to cemeteries, as well as providing insights into the life of the gate lodge keeper. Backing this up is a comprehensive gazetteer for the county, describing every lodge, locating it by parish and grid reference, and giving known details of its history. Wiltshire is well provided with gate lodges and has some of the country's best: with this copiously illustrated book the reader will be equipped not only to understand much more about their history and architecture but also to set out to explore these fascinating and often delightful buildings.Published by Hobnob Press for the Wiltshire Buildings Record
