Man plans and God laughs… Alongside his fiancée, Carrie Marvin, Michael Callaway, former U.S. Customs Enforcement Agent, battled the devil and won, eliminating one of the world’s most dangerous drug dealers. But the man’s son, Derrick Drake, will make his father’s evil accomplishments look trivial. Drake wants only one thing. Vengeance. They murdered his father. Now they’re going to pay for it. An eye for an eye isn’t going to be enough to satisfy Drake. Everyone behind his father’s death is going to feel the same pain and rage they inflicted on him. He has a list. Callaway’s friends. Federal buildings. But his revenge begins with Callaway and Carrie. A hit man is taking out targets with uncanny precision. Is there a mole in the DEA? When Callaway’s beautiful plans are shattered, he’ll be sucked into in a vortex of fury with his own raging thirst for revenge, his “Boy Scout” reputation be damned. Judge. Jury. An executioner with no mercy. To hell with the law. How far into evil will a good man go to exact his own fierce vengeance?
After the death of her father, Nina Carey fulfills his last wish and struggles to bring together her three estranged brothers: Sam, a hardened cop currently on suspension, Leo, a loud-mouthed bail bondsman, and Douglas, a charming twenty-year-old thief fresh out of prison, who never even knew he had a family. Sam, Leo and Douglas are eager to inherit their father’s sizable fortune, but there’s a catch— before they can claim the money, the three brothers must start a family business together. Leo becomes even more desperate for the cash when one of his bails skips town, and soon all three brothers are on the chase. They become entangled in a war with Mexican drug cartels and wind up in the hunt for a kidnapped American billionaire. Their search will take them through the strip clubs, mountains, and deserts of Mexico where they will have to learn how to work together as a family if they want to stay alive.
Rhodolith beds are recognized internationally as a unique ecosystem, and they are the focus of this interdisciplinary book. These marine beds occur worldwide, from the tropics to the poles, ranging in depth from intertidal to deep subtidal habitats and they are also represented in extensive fossil deposits. In the light of international interest in rhodoliths and maerl concerning their role in coastal ecosystems and with respect to biodiversity, fisheries, and the production of sediment, this book provides the most comprehensive view possible. As readers will discover, rhodoliths/maerl are fundamental to a range of ecological processes, acting as ecosystem engineers including playing key roles in recruitment and providing nursery habitats. Rhodoliths/maerl have been used commercially in some parts of the world, and they are understood to be vulnerable to coastal modifications and human-induced change, and hence their status may serve as an indicator of ecosystem health. Rhodoliths/maerl contribute to global carbon budgets although the extent remains to be evaluated, as do the potential impacts of changing global climates and ocean acidification.
Ever since there has been a professional game, baseball fans have enjoyed debating comparisons of one player to another--both contemporaries and players across various eras in the sport's history. The Baseball Same Game adds to those debates. However, rather than focus on the traditional "Who's better?" arguments (such as "Mantle or Mays?" or "Ruth or Aaron?") The Baseball Same Game takes on the particular cases of "Which players were the same?" Unique baseball metrics--apart from those common and conventional baseball statistics that one would typically see on the back of a player's bubble gum card--are used to analyze career performance. And, The Baseball Same Game gives consideration to relativity when comparing statistics of baseball players from different eras in the game. Which baseball all-time greats were the same in terms of their relative performance? Who are the recently retired players that match-up to the stars of baseball's past? What players not in the Baseball Hall of Fame measure up to those already in the Hall? The Baseball Same Game provides these answers and more.
