In the next Mitch Rapp thriller, a bioterrorist threat threatens an America already weakened by internal divisions. The head of ISIS, Sayid Halabi, survived Mitch Rapp’s attack on him, but while he convalesced, he plotted. Once healed, Halabi kidnaps a brilliant Yemeni microbiologist and forces him to produce anthrax. ISIS releases videos of his progress and uses them to stir up hysteria in the States in the midst of an extremely divisive presidential election. ISIS contracts with a Mexican drug cartel to smuggle the anthrax into the US, but the anthrax is really just a feint. Unknown to anyone but Halabi’s team, he also kidnapped people infected with the virus with the plan to use the drug cartels’ human trafficking capability to smuggle these infected people into the US. If he succeeds, it would trigger a pandemic that would kill untold millions. Mitch and Irene Kennedy are, of course, on the case.

V každé epoše bojuje ve službách Bohyně za udržení starých pořádků, za živočišnost „barbarství“ a zachování kontaktu s přírodou... což je v protikladu s idejemi nastupujícího křesťanství, propagujícího zdrženlivost a odříkání. To není nic pro Sláina. Ve dvou epických příbězích se Sláine dostane do doby Robina Hooda, aby zachránil nové převtělení své věčné lásky Niamh - a následně se přenese do Anglie po pádu krále Artuše, aby dal dohromady ztracené poklady Británie a zachránil tak umírajícího krále a s ním i celou zemi.

Small businesses are the backbone of the U.S. economy. They are the biggest job creators and offer a path to the American Dream. But for many, it is difficult to get the capital they need to operate and succeed. In the Great Recession, access to capital for small businesses froze, and in the aftermath, many community banks shuttered their doors and other lenders that had weathered the storm turned to more profitable avenues. For years after the financial crisis, the outlook for many small businesses was bleak. But then a new dawn of financial technology, or “fintech,” emerged. Beginning in 2010, new fintech entrepreneurs recognized the gaps in the small business lending market and revolutionized the customer experience for small business owners. Instead of xeroxing a pile of paperwork and waiting weeks for an answer, small businesses filled out applications online and heard back within hours, sometimes even minutes.

Nejnovější román bývalého londýnského řidiče autobusů, který se prosadil svou navýsost originální prvotinou Ohrady pro zvířata. Mills opět předvedl, že ač klasicky nevzdělán, má rozhodně předpoklady řadit se po bok samotného Samuela Becketta. Příběh-nepříběh hrdiny-nehrdiny - obyvatele domu na jakési pustině, zeměpisně neurčené, je ještě obecnějším a tajemnějším podobenstvím o naší moderní době než autorova prvotina. Pustina, domek, běžné zařízení a odpolední čaje, žena, co se odněkud vezme a nastěhuje se, přicházející návštěvy, lidé, kteří houfně odcházejí na jakousi zvláštní stavbu.
