Book Description
Duffy Dombrowski just accepted a dream job: chief sparring partner for Russian heavyweight contender Boris Rusakov in Vegas. His obstinate basset hound, Al, and a few friends join Duffy for the ride—but before Duffy knows it, his trip turns into a nightmare. Someone’s killing local Mexican workers, friends and relatives of Duffy’s gym buddies. And to make matters worse, Duffy’s got Boris’s Russian mobster pals chasing him with murder on their minds.
Quirky characters, rapid-fire dialogue, and nonstop action propel The Vegas Knockout into the sphere of gritty thrillers that hit with astonishing power.
Inside Job ($2.09 / £1.29 UK), by Charles Ferguson, is the Kindle Deal of the day for those in the UK (no US edition).
Book Description
The definitive big picture on the financial crisis, from the man behind the Oscar-winning documentary that exposed the workings of the new economic elite.
Based on explosive interviews conducted personally by award-winning filmmaker Charles Ferguson, as well as newly released court documents and information buried in archives, Inside Job traces in gripping detail how the financial industry and its enablers went rogue. Ferguson shows how three decades of deregulation created a “predator nation” and invited the crisis, particularly as key players cycled through positions of power in government, “independent” academia, and big-ticket finance. With clarity, toughness, and stunning freshness, he delivers an unrivaled accounting of how the new economic oligarchy have wrested control of our politics – and our prospects for eventual recovery.
