Book Description
When technologies, products, and services converge in radical, creative new ways, a killer app emerges-a new application so powerful that it transforms industries, redefines markets, and annihilates the competition. The steam engine, the cotton gin, and the Model T were all killer apps of their time. Today's killer apps spring from the digital realm: the personal computer, e-mail, and the World Wide Web. Tempted by the promise of such devastating power, companies large and small, from vast multinationals to lean entrepreneurial start-ups, are remaking themselves into organizations that nurture killer apps rather than succumb to them. How is it done? In this groundbreaking new book, strategists Downes and Mui identify the twelve fundamental design principles for building killer apps and offer a progressive guide to transforming your company into a place where killer apps are born. Unleashing the Killer App provides the tools, the techniques, and the proof that you need to incubate the killer app within your organization--and perhaps even release one.

On Becca’s second day there, Ferris wheel operator Virgil Morrison is found hanging from his rickety ride, dead from a gunshot. As Becca starts to notice Scott suspiciously sneaking around the fairgrounds, she begins to worry her ex may be involved in the murder. Then there’s the shadow she sees in the creepy corn maze and rumors of a gypsy curse—not to mention Virgil’s mysterious spider tattoo. Now Becca must search through a labyrinth of lies, secrets, and superstition to find a kernel of truth…before the killer starts stalking her.

Both are keen amateur detectives. This is an intriguing case for Blower since the crime, the unusual stabbing of a woman conveyancer surveying an apartment in the house whose owner works abroad, appears motiveless.

However, his intuition and experience as a Metroplolitan Police Detective, leads him to work with the Kent County Police Inspector who originally dealt with the crime scene. Through this association, and the eruption of a series of burglaries in the county, Blower begins to wonder if burglary was a factor in the womans murder. Some dubious characters, including the houseowners son, recently imprisoned for aggravated burglary, come under suspicion. It takes persistence, application and lateral thinking for several burglars, and the murderer, to be apprehended. The Annual Fete on the village green fronting Benfield House, provides the backdrop to an eventful outcome, which is concluded after a car chase through the Kent countryside to its coast.
