Drop Dead - Richard E. Farley
Ford to City: Drop Dead'' is perhaps the most famous tabloid headline of all time. It set the narrative for the New York City Fiscal Crisis of 1975, even though it wasn''t exactly true. In truth, a bumbling President Gerald Ford had very little to do with causing the 1975 Fiscal Crisis, and ultimately, he bailed New York City out. There has never been a financial crisis where more mythmaking and misrepresentation have been uncritically accepted as truth by the media, historians, and politicians than the New York City Fiscal Crisis of 1975. Those portrayed as fiscal geniuses who ''saved the City'', in truth, performed badly. Those portrayed as villains were no worse than the so-called heroes. The real villains - those who benefited from the corrupt system of governance of America''s largest city - skated away and lived to grift again. Critically acclaimed author Richard Farley brings us back to the New York City of the 1970s, a wildly corrupt time when gangsters held court with governors, crooked judges fixed cases, and politicians of both parties helped themselves to the public''s money with the help of ''respectable'' bankers and lawyers... until the money ran out. Through meticulous research and engaging storytelling, Drop Dead brings to life the colorful cast of characters who played a role in the crisis, from President Ford, Vice President Nelson Rockefeller, Governor Hugh Carey, Mayor Abe Beame, and banker Felix Rohatyn. It also exposes the behind-the-scenes players who preferred to remain hidden, such as Donald Trump and his father, Fred Trump, and a quartet of lawyers who did their bidding - Roy Cohn, Bill Shea, Bunny Lindenbaum, and Simon Rifkind. City machine bosses Meade Esposito and Carmine DeSapio benefitted from the corrupt system along with union bosses Albert Shanker and Victor Gotbaum. And, at the top of the heap? Legendary public relations guru John Scanlon, the puppet master of spin, whose unmatched skill helped turn his grifter clients from villains to heroes. Only in New York, my friends. If you can make it there, you''ll make it anywhere. This is a critical analysis of a corrupt system of governance and a must-read for anyone interested in the history of New York City, the politics of the 1970s, or the causes and consequences of financial crises. It is also a brilliantly researched cautionary tale told by an author and attorney who has spent his career studying the machinations of Wall Street and New York City politics. He reveals the untold story of the 1975 crash and knows, full well, that it might just happen again.

Drop Dead Sisters - Amelia Diane Coombs
“Compulsively readable, Drop Dead Sisters is perfect for readers who love shows like Bad Sisters and Dead to Me. A mystery about three estranged sisters who accidentally kill someone? Yes, please.” —Mindy KalingThree sisters reunite on a family vacation and rekindle their relationship the only way they know how—by covering each other’s tracks in a real-life murder mystery not even they can figure out.Remi Finch has spent the better part of her adult life avoiding family—especially her sisters. They just don’t click. Besides, her unconventional upbringing and major anxiety have convinced Remi that she can’t build a relationship with anyone. Period.When her parents plan a family reunion camping trip to celebrate their anniversary, Remi’s willing to reconnect, if only because she doesn’t have a choice. But then a dead body turns up at their campsite, and their sisterly bonding kicks into high gear.No one knows the whole story, but the Finch women are prepared to cover up the pieces before anyone tries to put them together. It’s a precautionary measure, probably unnecessary. Nobody else was there, so how could they have seen anything?Between old grudges and new dynamics, a handsome park ranger, and a body that won’t stay hidden, Remi is about to learn that nothing strengthens family ties quite like crime.

One mysterious mansion. Two rival journalists. Three weeks to uncover the story – and love – of a lifetime.Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn''t mind being called "Lady Death." It suits the ice queen persona she''s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn''t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive.Nadine''s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy. She''s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot has also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal. Intrigued, Wes goes to the source to learn more – only to discover Nadine had the exact same idea…and the infuriating woman isn''t willing to respect dibs. Typical.At first, Dot refuses to speak to either side of the squabbling pair, but then they receive an unusual request: work together, and Dot will share everything with them both. The offer seems too good to be true…and of course, it is: in a bitter twist of irony, Dot dies for real before she can finish recounting her story. Not all is lost, however. The estate''s executor allows Wes and Nadine access to Dot''s sprawling wonderland of a mansion for three weeks to find their answer. That''s three weeks of working together…three weeks of endless sweltering in tight spaces…three weeks of learning there could be something more between them than a desire to win at any cost.And maybe, just maybe, under the rubble of all those could-have-beens they''ll uncover more than the secret of Dot Voline''s long-ago scandal – and Lady Death will finally embrace what she''s wanted from life all along.Drop Dead tells the story of an endearing enemies to lovers romance, with a hearty dash of romantic comedy and a fascinating cosy mystery for readers to lose themselves in.TropesEnemies to LoversRomantic ComedyCosy MysteryContemporary Romance

Of Wives, Talismans and the Dead - I.N.C. Aniebo
Of Wives, Talismans and the Dead is a collection of short stories by influential author, I.N.C. Aniebo. Written originally in the 1960s, these tales explore superstition, Westernisation, and the rising tensions of an unequal society in post-independent Nigeria.''Now, dry your tears my child,'' his father said gently. ''I am going to drive him, away. He will not disturb you again. Dead men should not wander in the land of the living.''In the title story, ''Of Wives, Talismans and the Dead'', eleven-year-old Ibe worries about embarrassing himself in front of his father, finding time to play hide and seek with his friends, and, most importantly, his impending marriage with a young girl named Egeolu.Ibe''s tender innocence is set against the gravity of death and marriage as I.N.C. Aniebo captures the enduring traditions of 1960s Nigeria from the perspective of a young boy.Throughout the collection, Aniebo masterfully weaves together tales of exploitation, cultural change, and the desire to challenge authority. Of Wives, Talismans and the Dead is an outstanding illustration of classic Nigerian literature.Edited by Willfried F. Feuser.

All the Living and the Dead - Hayley Campbell
''A gentle book and, like death itself, sometimes an unexpectedly kind one'' Neil Gaiman''This is an absorbing and important book, seeking out stories so many shy away from and telling them with such respect, humanity, heart and, yes, wit. Without exaggeration, an awe-inspiring achievement'' Nigella Lawson___________________We are surrounded by death. It is in our news, our nursery rhymes, our true-crime podcasts. Yet from a young age, we are told that death is something to be feared. How are we supposed to know what we’re so afraid of, when we are never given the chance to look? Fuelled by a childhood fascination with death, journalist Hayley Campbell searches for answers in the people who make a living by working with the dead. Along the way, she encounters mass fatality investigators, embalmers, and a former executioner who is responsible for ending 62 lives.

Eat to Beat Disease - William Brodrick
Is your diet feeding or defeating disease?We are at a turning point in our understanding of how to prevent and fight disease. Rates of cancer, heart disease, strokes, diabetes, obesity and other common health problems are skyrocketing. However, the latest scientific research and clinical evidence is revealing that the power to protect ourselves against these threats and resist them lies in a simple solution: the foods we eat everyday. In Eat to Beat Disease, Dr William Li explains that your body was designed to fight threats like these and we have radically underestimated how food can be used to amplify this hidden power. Your body has five natural defence systems that, if functioning well, can protect you: angiogenesis (growing new blood vessels), cell regeneration, the microbiome, DNA protection and immunity. The healthy working of each has been found to be intimately connected to the foods we eat – and the findings are sometimes surprising. Discover: · Why scientists think drinking hot cocoa boosts stem cells crucial for your body''s regeneration· The role of cheese and wine in maintaining healthy gut bacteria· Why drinking coffee lowers your risk of dyingRevealing more than 200 foods that you can incorporate into your life today to help you live longer, Dr William Li proposes a simple 5 x 5 x 5 framework, inviting you to choose five foods and eat them five times a day, to fortify your five defence systems. It is not about dieting or cutting out – it is about having the confidence to incorporate the healthy foods you already love into a plan for life-long change. It could save your life.

But when she has a chance to claim what’s rightfully hers, the one obstacle in her way is a dangerous murder mystery . . .Miss Caroline has doubts when she receives an urgent invitation from a London law firm to discuss her late father’s estate. After all, the dishonored Earl of Morton died without a pound sterling to pass on to his two daughters. But while immersing herself in helping Mrs. Frogerton’s capricious daughter navigate the high social season, Caroline meets with a cagey lawyer, Mr. Smith, who shares life-altering news—the earl composed a second will, leaving behind an undisclosed fortune.Mrs. Frogerton, however, is thoroughly unimpressed with the firm’s conduct and suspicious of their true motives. Her instinct proves right when the two ladies find the office ransacked, staff in turmoil, and Mr. Smith missing. The full weight of the situation doesn’t sink in until Mr. Smith dies following a brutal attack on the street—discovered with an empty envelope bearing Caroline’s name in his pocket. With a connection forming between two deaths at the firm, Caroline can’t imagine why anyone would kill twice over the contents of a will. Further complicating matters is the amorous Mr. DeBloom—who claims his mother goaded the earl into making bad investments and promises to link Caroline to her inheritance—and the disappearance of Susan, her younger sister. As Caroline unwittingly becomes the center of both a criminal case and a sordid love triangle, she must tread with caution while seeking the truth . . . because someone is waiting to reduce her to nothing more than a signature on a dotted line.
