Detective Isaac Bell faces an attack on the Federal Reserve in an all-new adventure in the #1 New York Times bestselling series from Clive Cussler. In the summer of 1914, Isaac Bell attends a private meeting on Woodrow Wilson's presidential yacht, as Wilson addresses the newly launched regional Federal Reserve banks. Bell is present as a security agent with his father, who will be the head banker of the Boston region. Just after Wilson introduces a plan for new currency notes, the yacht comes under attack from a bi-wing airplane. Bell shoots down the plane with a machine gun and saves everyone aboard. But the attack on the yacht was only the first of Bell's problems. While responding to a curious murder scene in Rhode Island, he learns of a heist planned for the new federal printing and engraving building in D.C., where the new currency has been printed. Bell must track down the thieves and the currency before the new Federal Reserve system--and America's economy--is destroyed.

Unlike many horror fiction and fantasy writers, Clive Barker is true to the literary heritage of the genre. Though aware of the importance of entertainment in his writing, he embraces the traditional formulas of horror fiction and builds upon them, all the while alluding to the works of Dante, Poe, Mary Shelley, and others. The complexity of Barker's writing is best evidenced in the six volume Books of Blood. Many of these short stories are entertaining "hair raisers," yet they do not revel in gratuitous violence, instead relying on style and a masterful sense of language to entertain. This detailed study analyzes the significant themes in Barker's writing, placing him in the British Gothic tradition of Marlowe, Saki and others.

Clive's High Flying Poems is a collection of thought provoking and imaginative poetry that takes the reader on a magical journey. It starts gently with traditional English verse exploring chocolate box villages before gradually and surprisingly tackling more controversial subject matter like obesity, HS2, the environment and politician's shortcomings. The poem Ghost Town gives us an eerie feeling of desolation of a town torn apart by war. Without getting too serious though, it is also laced with delicate love poems which explore new love and lost love. The poem Your, Soldier Boy about a lover lost in WWII will bring a tear to the eye and September Time will bring a smile of warm reminiscence, but you are soon brought back down to earth with the humorous The Crocodile Hunter who demonstrates the art of crocodile wrestling.Enjoy this varied collection and explore the journey.
