Book Description
It’s War of the Worlds in the New York hoods. Nasir returns home two years later after the death of Denise. This time, he comes back to Queens with a crew and vengeance. He’s in a new relationship with Sunday, a beautiful but ruthless and ambitious bitch who’s ready to become the next Griselda Blanco in New York City. Along with her psychotic little brother, Sheek, the trio becomes a force to be reckoned with. Nasir’s beef with Sincere has been put on hold. Sincere is too busy dealing with his own hitches in Elmira Correctional Facility. Sincere barely survives a hit placed on him by an unknown force. New rivals are coming into play, one being Rondell—an OG with robust backing. Sincere creates a prison gang, KOS (Kings of Society), inside the state prison, and they’re becoming a booming threat in and out of the prison. Meanwhile, Zodiac is in Ghana, Africa, conducting the biggest drug deal in his life—to become a top distributor. With this deal, he’ll become one of the biggest heavyweights in the game. However, he and Trina are attacked during his trip to Africa. And with the news of Zulu’s death in federal prison, Zodiac is on high alert. Who’s behind these sudden attacks? There’s a greater force and entity than Zodiac, Sincere, and Nasir combined. His name is Ezekial, one of the founding members of a domineering and powerful international organization called The Outfit. Ezekial’s thirst for revenge for the death of his sons, Drip-Drip and Rafe, creates a civil war within The Outfit, and the streets of New York break out in bloodshed and war.

Book Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Family Business crime series comes a deliciously provocative legal page-turner about the Hudson family. When famed attorney Bradley Hudson learns of his youngest son Langston’s arrest for drug trafficking, he immediately assembles a team of lawyers and investigators, including members of his own family, to build a defense. With his reputation for being a shark in the courtroom, Bradley is confident he will get justice for his son—until he realizes he will be going up against an old foe, Assistant District Attorney James Brown. Is the ADA allowing his personal history with the Hudsons to influence his handling of the prosecution? To complicate matters, Bradley discovers that his older son, Lamont, a young lawyer and Bradley’s right-hand man, has secretly been planning his exit from the family law firm to get out from under his father’s shadow. Desiree, Bradley’s only daughter, is fresh out of law school and quite reserved compared to her siblings. She’s the good girl who doesn’t normally like to rock the boat, but in what could be considered the worst of all timing, she is secretly dating a man and a woman, and both relationships are on a collision course. Given the problems her family is facing, now is not the right time for Desiree to introduce more drama to the mix, but she just can’t seem to help herself. As if fighting for one son’s freedom and fending off the other’s betrayal isn’t enough pressure, Bradley is also in the middle of his own love triangle between his ex-wife, federal judge Jacqueline Hudson, and his current wife and jury consultant, Carla. He knows how much is at stake if his family’s drama spirals out of control, so he’ll do everything within his power to keep it all together and prevent his son from landing behind bars. With his trademark dramatic style, Carl Weber introduces readers to the Hudsons. Only time will tell if they can stand united, or if the legal dynasty of Bradley Hudson is about to come crashing down.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A fascinating look at how consumers perceive logos, ads, commercials, brands, and products.”—Time How much do we know about why we buy? What truly influences our decisions in today’s message-cluttered world? In Buyology, Martin Lindstrom presents the astonishing findings from his groundbreaking three-year, seven-million-dollar neuromarketing study—a cutting-edge experiment that peered inside the brains of 2,000 volunteers from all around the world as they encountered various ads, logos, commercials, brands, and products. His startling results shatter much of what we have long believed about what captures our interest—and drives us to buy. Among the questions he explores: • Does sex actually sell? • Does subliminal advertising still surround us? • Can “cool” brands trigger our mating instincts? • Can our other senses—smell, touch, and sound—be aroused when we see a product? Buyology is a fascinating and shocking journey into the mind of today's consumer that will captivate anyone who's been seduced—or turned off—by marketers' relentless attempts to win our loyalty, our money, and our minds.
