Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - A single night of uninhibited passion. A locked maritime empire. Zero escape paths. Natasha King is a brilliant, fiercely independent naval logistics director who controls the high-velocity container routing arrays at the Deepwater Baltic Terminal. She operates on cold logic, clean schedules, and absolute control. But when a multi-billion dollar shipping vessel drops anchor under mysterious conditions, she finds herself trapped in a secure terminal lockdown with the one man she was never supposed to see again. Christian Vane-Aleksander Vane's ruthlessly powerful, shadow-dwelling older brother-is the absolute kingmaker of international maritime shipping. He is cold, physically imposing, and used to total, unyielding compliance. Six months ago, they shared a breathless, masked encounter in Monaco that was supposed to be a one-time anomaly. Now, a massive autumn storm has knocked out the port's infrastructure grids, locking them together inside the terminal's ultra-luxurious executive suite for forty-eight hours. Outside, the storm rages. Inside, the professional friction explodes into a volatile, white-hot physical hunger that neither can override.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - You live two lives, and you have only been shown one of them.Every night you close your eyes and go somewhere. A third of your life passes there, unwitnessed. Human beings can learn to remember the night, to wake inside their dreams, and to cross consciously into the worlds beyond the body. But most who try fail for years, and the reason is almost never talent. They arrive at the doorway empty.Sealing the Vessel is not another book of techniques. It is the first work, the work that comes before every technique and quietly decides whether any of them will bear fruit. In these pages you will discover where the energy of your consciousness drains away each day, how your imagination has been stolen and spent on things that do not exist, and how to gather what was scattered so that the vessel of you begins to fill again. Consciousness cannot gather into new worlds while it is leaking.Inside this Revised and Expanded Edition- The ten reasons sincere people fail at astral projection and lucid dreaming, and what actually stands in their way- What imagination really is, and why it is the organ of perception in the inner worlds- Meditation taught from the ground up, and the seven gentle practices that fill the vessel- The crowd of selves inside every one of us, and how to see it without fighting it- Fear taken apart layer by layer until nothing is left of it- The author's own dated experiences on the far side of sleep, including one he was able to verify against the physical world- The presence in you that has never once been asleepWho this book is forAnyone drawn to astral projection, out-of-body experiences, lucid dreaming, or simply to being more awake in their own life. No belief is required, and no prior experience. This edition more than doubles the original, first written for a small circle of students, and moves from the sober evidence of Western explorers to the dream yogis of Tibet. Read it slowly. The journey has already begun.About the author. Gene Hart is the author of Beyond Dreaming and the teacher behind the Astral Doorway. He writes and teaches from Cebu, in the Philippines, and keeps a wide correspondence with seekers around the world.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - She was ten years old the first night. She went back every night she could for seven years. And in forty-two years she has never once been able to keep his face. Charlene Whitfield falls asleep in a back bedroom off Washington Boulevard in March of 1979 and opens her eyes on her own street in the middle of a warm, clean afternoon - same stucco, same cracked step, same ficus pushing up the sidewalk - with the helicopters gone and the buses gone and a boy named Odell sitting on the step with a screwdriver, glad she came. It is always three o'clock there. No time passes. Nothing hurts. She can't bring anything in and she can't bring anything out - except her shoes, and a tune he hums while he works, one that isn't off the radio and isn't out of any hymnal. She comes back to exactly where she left off, every time, as if she'd only stepped inside for water. And the boy gets older right along with her, on a day that never ends. Then she is seventeen, and a phone rings at two in the morning, and a girl standing in a hospital hallway learns that she is the one now - the one who picks the suit and signs where her grandmother can't see to sign. She decides that rest is for children. She shuts the door on that street and stands guard on it for thirty-four years. What follows is a whole life built on the other side of that door. A bad marriage in Inglewood. A good man who came late. Two daughters raised on a hum she never explained. A job at an admitting desk where she says good morning and date of birth and hands the card back, and checks - without ever deciding to - the walk and the stand and the right hand of every tall man who comes through those doors. Until a tired, grown woman with a pressure the doctor doesn't like does the arithmetic one night and says out loud, in the dark, like a woman signing something: All right. I'll go. A novel about a woman who spent her life looking for a face she was never allowed to keep - and about what she finally set down instead. Where I Left Off is told start to finish in Charlene's own voice, the way a woman tells a stranger the one thing she never told anybody at her own table. From the author of the Odessa Pruitt and Ruby Jean Turner mysteries.…

Neuware - Luke Vance has a license now, and a condition nobody in London wrote.A queue has opened against his entire world: nine claims, and his license obliges him to answer every one in order.

Nobody will say who wrote it.Luke copies it line by line and makes the Office call the record it cites. He is not the only one with a license now. Other estates are already on the Office's register.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Four estates are gone from Earth's line, and every clearance that closed them is correct.The books balance. Every transaction has a filing behind it. There is no second ledger in a drawer. Luke Vance checks it all himself and finds nothing wrong with any of it. That is the problem.A claim book kept by hand since before the Ledger came holds thirty-one claims. Each one is owed by one of two of the cleared estates.

And he has thirty-one claims he just promised, in writing, to carry into whatever he files next.He starts asking who certified that standard. And he asks why the reconciliation behind it sat open for forty years with nobody reading it.A System Apocalypse LitRPG. The final book of the Apocalypse Auditor trilogy, following The Apocalypse Audit and Total Loss. …

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - He may not even open it in front of you - which is courtesy here, not indifference. And if the gift was wrong, you will never hear a word about it. It will be received graciously, put away, and quietly forgotten, because complaining would insult your generosity.So the person who gets it wrong is never corrected. This book is that correction, written by an Arab American man raised in his father's cloth shop, where judging quality by hand was the first thing anyone taught him.You will learn: - Why silver and not gold - and exactly how far the rule reaches- The three gifts that almost never miss, whatever his country or his age- The gifts that quietly offend - including the one many Westerners reach for first- Which hand to give with, why the price tag stays on, and what to say as it changes hands- What his warm thanks are actually telling you, and what to watch instead- How to judge silver, stone, leather and wool by hand, in any market or on any screen- What compliance rules mean for a corporate gift, and how the tradition's own ethics line up with them If you are marrying into an Arab family and about to meet them, this book was written for you first. It is also for anyone with an Arab colleague, client or father-in-law, and for anyone who travels to the region for work and would rather not guess.Fifteen gift categories, judged by hand.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Hurricane Ian is moving toward Southwest Florida, and Ryder Stone and Katherine Grace are already running out of time.The death of Jason Wortham should be a single investigation. Instead, the circumstances surrounding his final days begin reaching backward into a decades-old disappearance, disputed property records, and a part of Englewood's history that has never fit together as cleanly as the surviving documents suggest.At first, Ryder has possibilities rather than answers.Then the connections begin appearing.Names surface where they should not. Records contradict one another in small but important ways. Old events suddenly matter to a present-day death. And some of the evidence Ryder finds seems almost too helpful-as though someone wants him looking in a particular direction.That possibility changes everything.Outside the investigation, Ian continues strengthening. Evacuation orders spread. Businesses close. Residents board their homes and leave. Roads fill with people trying to get away from the coast. Government offices and ordinary sources of information become harder to reach precisely when Ryder and Katherine need them most.Soon the landscape itself may become evidence that no longer exists.Ryder knows a convincing story is not necessarily a true one. Katherine knows that when someone wants investigators to believe a particular version of events, the most dangerous clue may be the one that fits perfectly.Together, they begin separating what actually belongs to Jason Wortham's death from what may have been deliberately placed in its path.But every answer pushes the investigation further into the past.What happened years ago Why does it matter now What did Jason discover before he died And who else understood the connection before Ryder began looking As the pressure drops and the wind rises, the investigation becomes a race against something no investigator can interview, delay, or control. Hurricane Ian is approaching Englewood, threatening homes, roads, records, evidence, and the physical places where the answers may still exist.Once the storm arrives, there may be no ordinary crime scene left.No ordinary neighborhood.No guarantee that what Ryder can examine today will survive until tomorrow.And someone may be counting on exactly that.After the Rain - Part One is a suspenseful Ryder Talon Stone mystery set against the approach of Hurricane Ian, where a present-day death collides with an old disappearance, disputed history, and evidence that may be revealing the truth-or directing Ryder toward the version someone wants him to believe.The hurricane is almost there.Before it arrives, Ryder must determine which pieces of the mystery were uncovered by his investigation-and which were deliberately left behind for him to find.Because after Ian makes landfall, the difference between destroyed evidence and hidden evidence may disappear with everything else.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Inspector Bhaskar Naidu signed the form himself. \*No suspicion\* - accidental drowning, April 2020, a woman nobody ever identified. The file closed in his own blue ink. Two years later another body comes out of the same lake. This one has a name, a widow, and a post-mortem that doesn't match the water. The new file doesn't just reopen the case - it leads back to the sentence Naidu wrote when he was too busy, too junior, too certain to look twice. To find the truth of one death he has to prove the negligence behind another: his own. What he uncovers runs from a gated flat in Jubilee Hills to an undisclosed offshore fund to a forged company-secretary certificate - a machinery so respectable it has never once needed to threaten anyone. The people who saw everything were never asked. Told across three lives and two timelines through the Indian lockdown - the inspector who signed, the widow who won't stop asking, and the woman in the water whose handwriting is still waiting to be read - \*No Suspicion\* is a police procedural in which the detective is investigating his own signature. From the author of \*The Blood Cipher\*. For readers of Tana French and \*Age of Vice\*.…
