Includes sensational new material! 12:23 a.m. August 31st 1997. The Mercedes driven by Henri Paul in which Princess Diana, Dodi Al Fayed and Trevor Rees-Jones were travelling crashes into a pillar in the Alma tunnel in Paris, killing Paul, Dodi and Diana and seriously injuring Rees-Jones. That much is certain. But little else. David Cohen never expected to be investigating Diana’s death. But after a reliable source asked him to fly to Geneva to listen to a dramatic story, he soon found himself on the trial of a young Englishwoman who, he increasingly came to realize, had been tragically out of her depth in the company of drugs dealers, arms dealers and secret service operators. Cohen reveals answers to some of the most troubling questions surrounding the events of that night. He discloses why the Mercedes was taking the wrong route to Dodi’s flat. He uncovers incriminating information about the owner of the infamous Fiat Uno. He reveals Henri Paul’s true role with M16. And, after years of investigation, he explains the links between the mysterious cult, The Order of the Solar Temple – whose members, including Princess Grace of Monaco, have died in a series of suspicious circumstances – and the circumstances surrounding Diana on the night she died.

Chasing the Red, White, and Blue: A Journey in Tocqueville's Footsteps Through Contemporary America

In 1831, Alexis de Tocqueville his journey to America, traveling from New York to the frontier city of Flint, Michigan, down the Ohio River Valley and into Mississippi, then turning east through the Old South and concluding in Washington, D.C. His journey spawned the classic Democracy in America, the book that defined "equality of opportunity" as the wellspring national character. At the end of the twentieth century, journalist David Cohen made that same journey, with one new destination—the frontier of Silicon Valley in California. Chasing the Red, White, and Blue is his account: a thought-provoking inquiry into the lives of Americans today. Talking with people at every level of society—from Manhattan real estate brokers and Washington lobbyists to supermarket clerks and illegal aliens—Cohen finds equality elusive and the poor increasingly adrift from American society. But he also finds hope alive in the most unexpected of places. Just as Democracy in America took the measure of our young republic, Chasing the Red, White, and Blue portrays a much-changed America on the cusp of a new millennium: still united by our passion for democracy, yet divided by our prejudices.

A decade after the fall of apartheid, South Africa is attempting to rebuild itself as a safe, just and democratic society. But an exponential rise in property theft threatens to derail that future. In People Who Have Stolen From Me, journalist David Cohen looks at his native country through the microcosm of Jules Street, at once the longest straight street in Johannesburg and a rambunctious thoroughfare on which crooked men thrive. On Jules Street, Cohen tracks the tragicomic fortunes of two charismatic businessmen and their colorful coterie of employees, who include former carjackers. The furniture store owned by Harry Sher and Jack Rubin is caught in the middle of an undeclared war: they are raided, robbed and defrauded by gangs of criminals, customers, even some of their own trusted employees. The descendants of Jewish immigrants who came from Eastern Europe at the beginning of the 20th century, Harry and Jack welcome the new democracy but must deploy all their humor, cunning, and salesmen's instincts to counter the criminals who threaten their business and sometimes their lives. Spending time with the perpetrators as well as the victims, both white and black, Cohen reveals as never before the hidden psychology of the new South Africa. Some say they merely steal material goods, while the system of apartheid has robbed them of their future. If you steal something from someone who has stolen from you, they ask, is that crime? Or is that justice? People Who Have Stolen From Me is the dramatic but true story of life at the sharp end in a country at the crossroads. It is also a hilarious and universal tale about conscience, betrayal and trust.

Written on the tenth anniversary of the fall of apartheid, People Who Have Stolen From Me describes a nation in the throes of rebuilding itself, through the eyes of two witty, perceptive men.
