The threat of war hangs over the post-Cold War world.  Death was agonising, yet mercifully quick, for a collector of dog corpses.   The Russian barely had time to react as the poison invaded his body and he became the first victim of a terrifying biological weapon known as RD-74…  A politically divided Russia is dominated by the ruthless Mafia barons who deal in drugs, weapons and protection, backed by a sophisticated new technology that threatens to make their power limitless.   Now they have control of a new breed of genetically engineered plague weapons, more effective and infinitely cheaper to make than a nuclear bomb — and they are open to the highest bidder.  As events begin to escalate out of control only one man can stop them…  David Nash of MI6 knows his way around the secretive intelligence worlds of Russia, America and Britain.   Steeled by past tragedy, Nash hardwires his human survival instincts to an electronic armory as the chilling endgame unfolds…  Hard Target is a gripping espionage novel that keeps you hooked until the very last page.  ‘A frenetic, continent-hopping thriller in the classic vein’ - The Times   James Adams is Washington Bureau Chief of the Sunday Times , and a leading authority on intelligence, covert warfare, terrorism and weapons. Born in Newcastle upon Tyne, he now lives in Washington, DC, with his wife and two children. He has written several works of non-fiction and, most recently, Sellout a book about Aldrich Ames and the biggest spying scandal ever to hit the CIA. His other two thrillers in Signet, The Final Terror and Taking the Tunnel , are also a blend of fact and fiction, giving extraordinary insights into the closed worlds of intelligence and terrorism.

"Shoot the Indian" is a provocative look at media and politics written by leading Native American journalists, academics and leaders. This book will change the way you perceive Native America, particularly if all your know about Indians is what you learned from the media. Published in 2007 by the American Indian Policy & Media Initiative, it examines the impact of the news media coverage with U.S. Indian policy. Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell said of the Initiative, "The founding meeting focused on how to build and communicate an effective defense of historic truths, and the legal and self-governance rights of tribal peoples in the United States."  Tim Johnson, Associate Director of the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian, said,  "'Shoot the Indian' reveals the historic roots of contemporary rhetoric in media and government about Native Americans; it's a strategic guide that colleges, tribal nations and anyone who cares about Native America should have in their libraries."

Before he knows what hit him, Jimmy finds himself waiting on tables of barflies at his local Waffle House.Many colorful characters soon emerge: man-hungry female patrons, a stonemason who carves his own teeth, and a man seeking refuge from the ghost in his apartment. Amidst the glorious chaos of the night shift, the 24-hour diner affords a bevy of comedic experiences as the author struggles to ingratiate himself with a motley crew of waiters and cooks. Unexpectedly, the restaurant also becomes a font of insight into financial markets and the human condition.
