Book excerpt: Some girls are better off dead… Being murdered in the bathroom of a cheap and nasty pub wasn't how Samantha Cross—awkward loner—envisioned her leaving party at work. She'd hoped for balloons and happy tears, what she got was a masked psycho and blood. Her blood. So, when she takes her first breath as a dead woman, the last thing she expects is to come face to face with the dangerously sexy man of Death himself. He gives her an ultimatum; work for him as a Death Chaser, or face an unknown fiery fate. It's a no-brainer. The trouble was, now she was dealing with demons, family secrets, newly discovered kick-arse abilities, and her gorgeously arrogant boss, she missed her simple life. Being dead was stressful and getting more complicated by the moment—especially when you turn down a deal with the devil himself and all Hell breaks loose. ** There are moments in your life that you'll never forget. Getting married, giving birth, having hot sex in the back of a stranger’s car... For Samantha Cross—loner, misfit and all round good girl—scrubbing at a red wine stain on her t-shirt in the bathroom of a seedy pub in London was one of them. Not because it was a particularly good wine; no, her works leaving party was cheap and nasty—as were many of her ex-colleagues. She'd remember because it was the evening she came face to face with a masked psycho, right there in the ladies’ bathroom. Oh. And because it was the day she died.

Book Synopsis The Man Who Caught the Storm by : Brantley Hargrove

Download or read book The Man Who Caught the Storm written by Brantley Hargrove. This book was released on 2019-04-02. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The saga of the greatest tornado chaser who ever lived: a tale of obsession and daring and an extraordinary account of humanity’s high-stakes race to understand nature’s fiercest phenomenon from Brantley Hargrove, “one of today’s great science writers” (The Washington Post). At the turn of the twenty-first century, the tornado was one of the last true mysteries of the modern world. It was a monster that ravaged the American heartland a thousand times each year, yet science’s every effort to divine its inner workings had ended in failure. Researchers all but gave up, until the arrival of an outsider. In a field of PhDs, Tim Samaras didn’t attend a day of college in his life. He chased storms with brilliant tools of his own invention and pushed closer to the tornado than anyone else ever dared. When he achieved what meteorologists had deemed impossible, it was as if he had snatched the fire of the gods. Yet even as he transformed the field, Samaras kept on pushing. As his ambitions grew, so did the risks. And when he finally met his match—in a faceoff against the largest tornado ever recorded—it upended everything he thought he knew. Brantley Hargrove delivers a “cinematically thrilling and scientifically wonky” (Outside) tale, chronicling the life of Tim Samaras in all its triumph and tragedy. Hargrove takes readers inside the thrill of the chase, the captivating science of tornadoes, and the remarkable character of a man who walked the line between life and death in pursuit of knowledge. The Man Who Caught the Storm is an “adrenaline rush of a tornado chase…Readers from all across the spectrum will enjoy this” (Library Journal, starred review) unforgettable exploration of obsession and the extremes of the natural world.

Book Synopsis Chaser by : John W. Pilley

Download or read book Chaser written by John W. Pilley. This book was released on 2014-11-03. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chaser has a way with words. She knows over a thousand of them—more than any other animal of any species except humans. In addition to common nouns like house, ball, and tree, she has memorized the names of more than one thousand toys and can retrieve any of them on command. Based on that learning, she and her owner and trainer, retired psychologist John Pilley, have moved on to further impressive feats, demonstrating her ability to understand sentences with multiple elements of grammar and to learn new behaviors by imitation. John’s ingenuity and tenacity as a researcher are as impressive as Chaser’s accomplishments. His groundbreaking approach has opened the door to a new understanding of animal intelligence, one that requires us to reconsider what actually goes on in a dog’s mind. Chaser’s achievements reveal her use of deductive reasoning and complex problem-solving skills to address novel challenges. Yet astonishingly, Chaser isn’t unique. John’s training methods can be adopted by any dog lover. Through the poignant story of how he trained Chaser, raised her as a member of the Pilley family, and proved her abilities to the scientific community, he reveals the positive impact of incorporating learning into play and more effectively channeling a dog’s natural drives. John’s work with Chaser offers a fresh perspective on what’s possible in the relationship between a dog and a human. His story points us toward a new way of relating to our canine companions that takes into account our evolving understanding of the way animals and humans learn.
