New York Times bestselling author Jason M. Hough dives headfirst into the world of thrillers with this “gripping…timely, and entertaining” (Kevin Hearne, New York Times bestselling author of the Iron Druid Chronicles) new tale.Welcome to Silvertown, Washington. Population 602 (for now). Despite its size, the small mountain town is home to more conspiracy theories than any other place in America. Officer Mary Whittaker is slowly acclimating to the daily weirdness of life here, but when the chief of police takes a leave of absence, she is left alone to confront a series of abnormal incidents—strange even by Silvertown standards. An “indoor kid” who abhors nature dies on a random midnight walkabout with no explanation. A hiker is found dead on a trail, smiling serenely after being mauled by a bear. A woman known for being a helicopter parent abandons her toddler twins without a second thought. It’s almost as if the townsfolk are losing their survival instinct, one by one… As Whittaker digs deeper into her investigation, she uncovers a larger conspiracy with more twists and turns than a mountain road and danger around every corner. To save Silvertown, she must distinguish the truth from paranoia-fueled lies before she ends up losing her own instincts…and her life.

From one of the world’s top experts on the economics of skyscrapers—a fascinating account of the ever-growing quest for super tall buildings across the globe.The world’s skyscrapers have brought us awe and wonder, and yet they remain controversial—for their high costs, shadows, and overt grandiosity. But, decade by decade, they keep getting higher and higher. What is driving this global building spree of epic proportions? In Cities in the Sky, author Jason Barr explains all: why they appeal to cities and nations, how they get financed, why they succeed economically, and how they change a city’s skyline and enable the world’s greatest metropolises to thrive in the 21st century. From the Empire State Building (1,250 feet) to the Shanghai Tower (2,073 feet) and everywhere in between, Barr explains the unique architectural and engineering efforts that led to the creation of each. Along the way, Barr visits and unpacks some surprising myths about the earliest skyscrapers and the growth of American skylines after World War II, which incorporated a new suite of technologies that spread to the rest of the world in the 1990s. Barr also explores why London banned skyscrapers at the end of the 19th century but then embraced them in the 21st and explains how Hong Kong created the densest cluster of skyscrapers on the planet. Also covered is the dramatic result of China’s “skyscraper fever” and then on to the Arabian Peninsula to see what drove Dubai to build the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, which at 2,717 feet, is higher than the new One World Trade Center in New York by three football fields. Filled with fascinating details for urbanists, architecture buffs, and urban design enthusiasts alike, Cities in the Sky addresses the good, bad, and ugly for cities that have embraced vertical skylines and offers us a glimpse to the future to see whether cities around the world will continue their journey ever upwards.

From one of the world’s top experts on the economics of skyscrapers—a “fascinating” (Daily Mail, London) and “informative” (Publishers Weekly) account of the ever-growing quest for super tall buildings across the globe.The world’s skyscrapers have brought us awe and wonder, and yet they remain controversial—for their high costs, shadows, and overt grandiosity. But, decade by decade, they keep getting higher and higher. What is driving this global building spree of epic proportions? In Cities in the Sky, author Jason Barr “provides an enjoyable, expansive study of a subject he loves” (Kirkus Reviews), explaining why they appeal to cities and nations, how they get financed, why they succeed economically, and how they change a city’s skyline and enable the world’s greatest metropolises to thrive in the 21st century.

In 1947 the United States Army sent out an official press release informing the world: Roswell Army Air Field Captures Flying Saucer. One day later, the army claimed the flying saucer was nothing but a weather balloon. In 1994 the U.S. Air Force admitted the weather balloon story was a cover-up. Over the last 71 years the U.S. Government, witnesses, and researchers have issued reports, written books, and filmed documentaries about the infamous UFO incident. Until now, there have been no independent, objective, and non-involved third-party reports released from a licensed investigative source. The Author is Jason M. Doss, who is a licensed, board certified, and nationally recognized private investigator. The book is an investigative report, and essentially brings the 1947 incident into a courtroom, where professional and accepted judicial practices are used to eliminate bias, uncover truth, and finally solve one of the greatest mysteries in history.

This book reveals a superior way to live. There are many ways to navigate through life and some work better than others. Most people make safe choices with mediocre results. They react to life instead of creating their own conditions. They "go with the flow," but it's often said that only dead fish go with the flow. Creating your own conditions can bring exactly what you want in life. This book shows you how. It is by no means a standard, run-of-the-mill self-help book. There's a ton of them at every trash dump in every major city. You've seen them, read them and they didn't work. There's a reason for this. A single fact about how we view the world around us remains unmentioned by these authors. Understanding the very fabric of reality and how the mind works within it is one of the keys covered in this book. It reveals guarded secrets of the elite, who use what is in this book to control corporations, governments, and the most powerful organizations in the world. They also operate the stream that the collective masses flow down, a population being herded and controlled, with comparatively few rewards. If you believe it's time to reap your own rewards in life and create the conditions that serve you best, then this book is for you.
