The Killing Ground
For intelligence operative Sean Dillon, it is a routine passport check. But the events it will lead to will be as bloody as any he has ever known. The man he stops at Heathrow airport is Caspar Rashid, born and bred in England, but with family ties to a Bedouin tribe fiercely wedded to the old ways, as Rashid has just found out to his pain. His thirteen-year-old daughter, Sara, has been kidnapped by Rashid`s own father and taken to Iraq to be married to a man known as the Hammer of God, one of the Middle East`s most feared terrorists. Dillon has had his own run-ins with the tribe, and when the distraught man begs him for help, he sees a chance to settle some old scores -- but Dillon has no idea of the terrible chain of events he is about to unleash, nor of the implacable enemies he is about to gain. Before his journey is done, many men will die -- and Dillon may be one of them.

Fear Is The Key
A sunken DC-3 lying on the Caribbean floor. Its cargo: ten million, two hundred and fifty thousand dollars in gold ingots, emeralds and uncut diamonds guarded by the remains of two men, one woman and a very small boy. The fortune was there for the taking, and ready to grab it were a blue-blooded oilman with his own offshore rig, a gangster so cold and independent that even the Mafia couldn't do business with him and a psychopathic hired assassin. Against them stood one man, and those were his people, those skeletons in their watery coffin. His name was Talbot, and he would bury his dead

Twelve hundred lives in jeopardy, lives that could be saved if only the guns could be silenced. The guns of Navarone, vigilant, savage and catastrophically accurate. Navarone itself, grim bastion of narrow straits manned by a mixed garrison of Germans and Italians, an apparently impregnable iron fortress. To Captain Keith Mallory, skllled saboteur, trained mountaineer, fell the task of leading the small party detailed to scale the vast, impossible precipice of Navarone and to blow up the guns.

Discovering Your Hidden Spiritual Resources
Goodness has no need to enter the soul," wrote a fourteenth-century Christian mystic. "It is there already, simply unperceived. "Discovering Your Hidden Spiritual Resources" is Eknath Easwaran's phrase for the spark of divinity hidden in every one of us, regardless of our personal liabilities or past mistakes. And is Discovering Your Hidden Spiritual Resources he shows this spark of divinity can energize our lives. Love, compassion, meaning, hope, and freedom from fear are not qualities we need to acquire, Easwaran points out. We simply need to uncover what we already have. And in this book he shows us how. He begins with instructions in a simple method of meditation that he himself has taught and practiced for more than thirty years. - a method that gradually removes the conditioning which hides our native goodness. The following chapters each take a theme from the Beatitudes of the Sermon on the Mount. Easwaran ties these themes to specific strategies for putting meditation to work Christian mystics - among them Meister Eckhart, Mechthild of Magdeburg, Terasa of Avila, and John Ruysbroeck. Discovering Your Hidden Spiritual Resources will appeal to people who want to learn how to meditate but seek a method that fits comfortably within the Christian tradition. It is full of helpful suggestions for making spiritual ideals a practical part of daily life.
