He and his partner, David Rourke, discover a terrorist plot against the United States.

Book Description
This historical thriller, whose protagonist is inspired by a real 16th-century doctor named Simon Furman, is full of period detail that is reflective of the political intrigues of the times. On May Day 1592, after a night of revelry and a day tending the sick, Forman falls into bed utterly exhausted. Soon afterward, he is woken by a man on his doorstep who is dying from a sword thrust, and the next morning Forman is summoned to Whitehall, accused of harboring enemies of the state. To prove his innocence, he agrees to journey to Edinburgh on a secret spying mission. But once he enters the borders between Scotland and England—where the bloodthirsty Reivers vow a life for a life—he realizes that death is stalking him. As one gruesome murder closely follows another, Dr. Forman must act quickly to identify a ruthless killer before his own life is put in jeopardy.

Book Description
Supported by original sources and thoroughly illustrated, a detailed account of the Douglases' fight against the Percys. In his Chronicles, Froissart describes Otterburn as 'the best fought and the most severe' battle of his time. Fought at Redesdale in Northumberland in August 1388, the battle originated from the ongoing war between the Scots and the English following Robert Bruce's victory over the English at Bannockburn in 1314. Using all the contemporary sources, this book details the events that led up to the clash on the borders, examines the opposing armies, their weaponry and their commanders – including the Douglases on the Scots side and the Percys on the English – and gives a full account of the battle and its aftermath.

Book Description
There is a preponderance of prejudice, bigotry, hate, violence, mayhem and murder committed in the name of a religion called Islam. Even though the history of both Islam and Christianity is replete with this horrific side of human interaction, Islam is spiraling downward into hate-filled evil at the speed of light. Islamic history is replete with so much bloodshed, slavery, mass murders, and pillage. Islam has always had bloody borders, and it continues the legacy of bloodshed which started with Muhammad about fourteen hundred years ago. Such is the reality of Islam that we cannot turn a blind eye to. Violence is so ingrained in Islam that it can never stop being at war within itself or with the others outside Islam. The sooner we learn and embrace the truth, the better we can prepare to combat Islamic terrorism and fanaticism. Islam by nature, and through its essential principles, encourages and propagates extremism. To understand why Muslim fanatics behave the way they do and why they commit abominable crimes against innocent people, "Bloody Borders Of Islam" leads the readers through the origins of Islam, the life of Muhammad, the epic split of the Muslim community, the jihad conquests of Christian and non-Muslim territories and then discuss the status of Christians and Jews and people of other faiths under Islamic Law.

Book Description
This book examines the deterioration of relations between the USSR and China in the 1960s, whereby once powerful allies became estranged, competitive, and increasingly hostile neighbors. It shows how the intrinsic inequality of the Sino-Soviet alliance - seen as entirely natural by the Russians but bitterly resented by the Chinese - resulted in its ultimate collapse.
