A startling look at an event which spawned an unprecedented level of public concern, emotion and circulation of conspiracy theories, along with a new explanation for how the government responded to the Sandy Hook massacre.

Marty Kessler is a prototypical second-generation Jewish boychick who finds himself always trying to do the 'right thing.' Follow Marty from college to graduate school, then to a brief academic career and then to a willing but totally unknowing partnership with Victor Sadof, a fictional version of Bernard Madoff. Marty survives the scandal and ends up still wondering who he really is and what he really wants.

A lively and provocative book which tells how and why there is a debate about guns in the United States seen through the perspective of someone who has been in the gun business his entire life. As a manufacturer, importer, wholesaler and retailer of firearms, the author has seen every aspect of the gun world and shares both his personal experiences as well as evidence-based research to show what both sides know and don't know about guns.

Do you know: * Why do Americans really buy guns? * How many guns are truly sold without background checks? * How many Americans are actually injured by firearm violence each year? If you think you know, think again. Drawing from 30 years of experience in the gun industry, Mike the Gun Guy will give you the whole story about gun violence-the one based on facts, not on any political agenda. With writing that is often provocative, sometimes hilarious and always informative, Mike breaks down how the gun industry works, and what both sides get right (very little) and wrong (almost everything) about how Americans think about, purchase, and use guns. Want to know what neither the NRA nor Michael Bloomberg will tell you about guns? It's in this book.
