Nu ze geen werk meer heeft en haar geld opraakt, heeft Kat dringend meer cli?nten nodig, of ze moet met hangende pootjes terug naar haar oude, saaie negen-tot-vijf-baantje bij haar vorige werkgever. En dat is wel het laatste wat Kat wil. Dus als Susan Sullivan, de hoogste baas van Liberty Diamond Mines, Kat inhuurt om de verdwenen financieel directeur van het bedrijf terug te vinden – en de gigantische som gestolen geld die hij met zich meegenomen heeft – neemt Kat de opdracht net iets te graag aan. Rood staan is natuurlijk een belangrijke stimulans om moeilijke klussen aan te nemen, maar haar enthousiasme verandert al snel in doodsangst als twee werknemers van Liberty op brute wijze worden vermoord.? Kat beseft dat dit onderzoek wel eens gevaarlijker zou kunnen zijn dan ze had verwacht. Alsof alles nog niet ingewikkeld genoeg is, ontdekt ze een sinister verband tussen bloeddiamanten en georganiseerde misdaad. Nu moet ze alleen nog bewijzen vinden... en zorgen dat ze niet wordt vermoord voordat ze de echte criminelen ontmaskert.

Chamberlain Legacy
Chamberlain Legacy
Nettlefold, Charles
¥93.10
The Chamberlains were the most powerful political dynasty in England between 1876 and 1940 when one or, more usually, two members of the family sat in the Commons, holding between them nearly all the great Offices of State. In recent times, they have sunk into relative obscurity but recent political developments have made their lives seem particularly relevant. Theresa May's listing of Joe Chamberlain in her apostolic succession of great conservatives has brought him back to the forefront of political debate; whilst Brexit has made his policy of Tariff Reform relevant once again to British economic policy. The concerns over President Putin's foreign policy, coupled with the weak state of Britain's defence forces, have mirrored the conditions that led to the humiliation of Neville Chamberlain, whilst the UK's current political turmoil reflects those of the 1920s, which led to Austen Chamberlain being mocked as a perpetual loser. In this book, the author has sought to re-examine the reputations of these three men by concentrating as much on their personal lives and the motives that drove them as on the mighty political events that dominated their times. His conclusions may surprise the reader and may help those who are trying to forge policies to deal with the current political and economic environments.
