A thrilling exposé revealing how Opus Dei - a secretive, ultra-conservative Catholic sect - pushed its radical agenda within the Church and around the globe, using billions of dollars siphoned from one of Europe's largest banks. When Gareth Gore was dispatched to report on the sudden collapse of Banco Popular, he uncovered one of the most brazen cases of corporate pillaging in history, perpetrated by a group of men sworn to celibacy and self-flagellation. Drawing on unparalleled access to bank records, insider accounts, and exclusive interviews with whistleblowers from within Opus Dei, Gore reveals how money from the bank was used to lure unsuspecting recruits - some of them only children - into a life of servitude. He also tracks the ascent of Opus Dei around the globe, exposing its role in bankrolling many right-wing causes, including the US Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade.

Many people don’t get along with their parents. But for
Bobby Luisi Jr., the relationship with his father deteriorated to the point
where it became a matter of life or death—kill or be killed. 

Luisi grew up in the shadow of his father, a notorious
mobster who was feared by many in Boston’s North End, a tight-knit Italian
neighborhood that was full of wiseguys. 

It all came to a bloody end in 1995 when Luisi’s father,
brother, and cousin were gunned down in broad daylight in a busy 99 Restaurant
in Charlestown, Massachusetts. The mass shooting made national headlines and Luisi’s family turned
against him. 

In Four on the Floor, Emily Sweeney&nbsp;chronicles the last of Boston’s mob
wars and provides an intimate look at a family torn apart by violence, and
tells the story of how Luisi’s rocky relationship with his father drove him to
seek success as a gangster.

From the streets of Boston’s North End to mob
hangouts in South Philly, this book reveals the inner workings of crime
families and the deadly power struggles and infighting that took place among
organized crime factions in the 1990s. It’s a fascinating tale of alliances,
betrayal, and redemption that readers won’t want to put down

The Story of Bobby Luisi and Boston's Last Mob War

Four on the Floor

On Riddleston Road each house reaches three storeys high, with smart gabled roofs and neat garden paths unfurling from pastel coloured front doors. Wide, sash windows stare outwards from the brick facades, revealing a glimpse of beautiful interiors. And concealing dark secrets. Today a new family has moved into number twenty-three. A family who shouldn't be there. As Iris stacks boxes in the hallway, she knows she has made a mistake in coming here. This house will mean her son will get the future he deserves. That will make everything she's done worth it. But someone knows Iris's secret and what she did to get her dream home... Would she kill to keep it?

A totally gripping psychological thriller with a twist you won’t see coming

The Family at No 23

An illuminating account of the most storied friendship of the American West: the bond between Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday In 1878, Wyatt Earp, town marshall of Dodge City, was attempting to arrest some drunken, armed men who’d cornered him in a saloon. John Henry “Doc” Holliday, who'd been gambling nearby, stepped in with a revolver and quieted the drunks, allowing Earp to make his arrests. This was the start to the most legendary friendship and partnership of the American West. Through action-packed adventures, Gardner shows us how, over the years, Holliday became like a brother to Wyatt, riding from town to town, throughout the west. This thrilling narrative builds up to the moment when they'd hunt down the very men who murdered Wyatt's brother, Morgan, a legendary search that enthusiasts of the Wild West are eager to learn more about.&nbsp; Gardner shows that there is far more to unearth about this famous friendship. Researched through firsthand observations at historic sites and countless contemporary letters and newspaper reports, this&nbsp;is the definitive book on Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and their fascinating bond.

A Matter of Time

From true-crime legend T. J. English, the epic, behind-the-scenes saga of "Los Muchachos," one of the most successful cocaine trafficking organizations in American history-a story of glitz, glamour, and organized crime set against 1980's Miami. Despite what Scarface might lead one to believe, violence was not the dominant characteristic of the cocaine business. It was corruption: the dirty cops, agents, lawyers, judges, and politicians who made the drug world go round. And no one managed that carousel of dangerous players better than Willy Falcon. A Cuban exile whose family escaped Fidel Castro's Cuba when he was eleven years old, Falcon, as a teenager, became active in the anti-Castro movement. He began smuggling cocaine into the U.S. as a way to raise money to buy arms for the Contras in Central America. This counter-revolutionary activity led directly to Willy's genesis as a narco. He and his partners built an extraordinary international organization from the ground up. Los Muchachos, the syndicate founded by Falcon, thrived as a major cocaine distribution network in the U.S. from the late 1970's into the early 1990's. At their height, Los Muchachos made more than a hundred million dollars a year. At the same time, Willy, his brother Tavy Falcon, and partner Sal Magluta became famous as championship powerboat racers. Cocaine, used by everyone from A-list celebrities to lawyers and people in law enforcement, came to define an era, and for a time, Willy Falcon and those like him-major suppliers, of whom there were only a few-became stars in their own right. They were the deliverers of good times, at least until the downside of persistent cocaine use became apparent: delusions of grandeur, psychological addiction, financial ruin. Thus, the War on Drugs was born, and federal authorities came after Falcon and his crew with a vengeance. Willy found himself on the run, his marriage and family life in shambles, the halcyon days of boat races and lavish trips to Vegas and parties at the Mutiny night club seemingly a distant memory. T. J. English has been granted unprecedented access to the inner workings of Los Muchachos, sitting down with Willy Falcon and his associates for many lengthy interviews, and revealing never-before-understood details about drug trafficking. A classic of true-crime writing from a master of the genre,&nbsp;The Last Kilo&nbsp;traces the rise and fall of a true cocaine empire-and the lives left in its wake.

“T.J. English hits the bullseye again. This is true crime writing at its most gripping and immediate — a riveting epic about crooked cops, lawyers, prosecutors, judges, and politicians who corrupted a continent and got snow to flow out of the tropics.

Willy Falcon and the Cocaine Empire That Seduced America

The Last Kilo

In the annals of Wild West desperadoes, Belle Starr is remembered as the Bandit Queen. Now Michael Wallis parses over a century of mythmaking to reveal the woman behind the renegade legend.
Starr was born Myra Maibelle Shirley in 1848 and was educated to be a Southern belle. Her early years were characterised by the chaotic violence of the American Civil War-she was traumatised by the death of her brother while riding with a guerilla group supporting the Confederate Army and she swore revenge against all Yankees, becoming a "friend to any brave and gallant outlaw".
Turning a redemptive eye to Belle Starr's legacy, Wallis crafts portrait of a woman demonised for refusing to accept genteel Victorian ideals, who chose to live her life outside the law, riding with a pearl-handled Colt .45 strapped to her hip.

'A powerful tribute to female solidarity that you won't be able to stop thinking about' GLAMOUR 'An ode to how women support, protect and uphold each other in a misogynistic world. Read then pass it on' SYTLIST 'Took my breath away from the first page and did not let go of me till the very last' NIKITA GILL 'There is no singular experience of womanhood and we create the chain to remind ourselves of this. We stand beside each other in such a way that we may say, Tell me your story as a woman, and yours, and yours, and yours . . .' One cold January day, Chimene Suleyman walks out of an abortion clinic to find her boyfriend has vanished. Later she watches as her building's CCTV shows him calmly removing his belongings from her home, erasing himself from the life he has destroyed. Then she discovers he has done this before. But this is not his story. Told with breathtaking clarity and tenderness, The Chain is a love letter to the sisterhood that formed despite (and in spite of) a man who deceived dozens of women. Suleyman shows us just how fiercely women shelter and strengthen one another in a society that asks them to sacrifice themselves for men.
