Book Description
Danger, secrets and lies… Maverick government officer Simon Byrne, undercover on a Caribbean island, must stop an international arms dealer’s sale of uranium that could trigger world conflict. Simon’s mission goes sideways when the woman he once failed to protect is assigned as his tech officer. He vows to keep her safe, but she’s in his head…and in his heart. By-the-book tech expert Janna Harris is determined to prove herself in the field and uncover whether her late husband, who sold to the arms dealer, also betrayed his government. A treason investigation could expose Janna’s own secrets. Her attraction to Simon wars with her pledge not to let another man into her life. But can she walk away from the only man who could heal her battered soul? Emotions and danger collide as the powder-keg deadline ticks down on their mission—and their survival.

Pages : 318
Book Description
The Porphyrin Handbook, Volume 13: Chlorophylls and Bilins: Biosynthesis, Synthesis, and Degradation provides information pertinent to every aspect of the chemistry, synthesis, spectroscopy, and structure of phthalocyanines.

This text then provides an accurate historical review of the two enzymes involved in photosynthetic pigment production. Other chapters consider the processes that take place in darkness in all plants including angiosperms as the early steps of chlorophyll biosynthesis. This book discusses as well the reactivity and structures of the known chlorophyll catabolites from vascular plants, synthetic sources, and microorganisms. The final chapter deals with the methodologies used for the synthesis of bile pigments. This book is a valuable resource for research scientists, engineers, and clinicians.

Book Description
Roger Ailes, former Republican political consultant, and current president of Fox News Channel, is a dominant media figure of our age. His made-for-TV imagery and mastery of “style over substance” has overtaken earlier methods of reporting the news, and radically refashioned our political and communications landscapes. Yet, no book has ever been published on this Oz-like figure: Dark Genius is the definitive study of Ailes and his controversial career. The 1960 television encounter between Richard Nixon and John F. Kennedy was the moment when slick television imagery began to take over politics. Ailes, a young TV producer, absorbed the lessons of the new video age, and put them into practice. While a director on “The Mike Douglas Show”, he met Richard Nixon, who soon hired Ailes to help him conquer the fledgling medium. Riding the wave of that triumph, Ailes went on to aid other key Republican figures like Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and Rudy Giuliani. In the 1990s, Ailes was hired to run CNBC, the first cable financial network, bringing a talk radio sensibility to the small screen. Then, Rupert Murdoch hired him to implement the media mogul’s vision for a different kind of cable news network. Now, with Murdoch (whose News Corp. has recently acquired the Wall Street Journal), Ailes is launching the FOX News business channel in 2007. Over the span of several decades, Ailes has played a key role in the growing reach of conservatism, first in politics, then in mass media. Part history, part media criticism, part current events, Dark Genius tracks the rise, dominance, and relevance of political television, and how it has been used and abused by its master.

Book Description
"One of the best PNR series ever written." I just can't put these books down! I.T. Lucas is a masterful storyteller and has woven a complex world filled with engaging characters, intense stories and amazing dialogue that draws the reader in and never lets go. Both Turner and Bridget appear in earlier stories and Ms. Lucas has made this their time to shine. As has been her pattern, there is a second story about Roni and Sylvia that has been developing along with others that is barreling to a conclusion. Finally, we have the conflict with The Doomers and human trafficking. That's another shoe that's sure to drop in future stories."Series is fantastic! IT Lucas did it again. Can't wait for next book. I could read this series a number of times. The characters are so diverse & the story line is awesome. If you've read Black Dagger Brotherhood you have to try this series.""Love, love, love this series!!! IT Lucas has such a gift for writing. She takes a character like Victor who doesn't show a lot of emotion, and gets you so invested in his story that you are rooting for a happy ending for him. I can't WAIT for the next book in the series to see what happens!!!!""This is a series not to be missed. Truly, one of the best Paranormal Romance series ever written.""FANTASTIC SERIES. This series is absolutely one of my favorite. I love being able to follow the lives of the characters from book to book and keep up with what is going on in their lives. In DARK OPERATIVE, Bridget meets Turner and the possibility of a long awaited love presents itself, but with obstacles on the horizon, there is a possibility that their romance will not be realized. As usual, I am anxiously awaiting the next installment. Oh, did I say I LOVE this series!!""Brilliant as always. Totally captivating! This series gets me Every. Single. Time. My heart goes out to Bridget and Turner. I hope they are lovemates!--------------------As a brilliant strategist and the only human entrusted with the secret of immortals' existence, Turner is both an asset and a liability to the clan. His request to attempt transition into immortality as an alternative to cancer treatments cannot be denied without risking the clan's exposure. On the other hand, approving it means risking his premature death. In both scenarios, the clan will lose a valuable ally.When the decision is left to the clan's physician, Turner makes plans to manipulate her by taking advantage of her interest in him.Will Bridget fall for the cold, calculated operative? Or will Turner fall into his own trap?--------------------The loneliness didn't bother Turner. He was entirely satisfied with his own company. Even sex wasn't a strong enough motivator to seek out partners other than the paid kind.Dealing with people in any capacity other than professional was a strain. He wasn't a charmer who knew how to pick up women, and he didn't arm himself with the latest jokes and sports statistics to entertain company. The things he liked to talk about were as effective at prompting others' hasty departure as small talk was for him.Bridget, however, was not only highly intelligent but one of the most alluring women he had ever encountered, maybe because she wasn't as transparent to him as most people were.And she was hot.As much as Turner liked to believe he was all brain and not susceptible to primal urges, apparently they were still there, lying dormant until the right woman triggered their resurgence.And yet, he could have stifled his immediate and quite disturbing attraction to the doctor if not for the mixed signals she was sending him. Those subtle flirtatious comments confused him. Was she like that with all her patients?
