This book is about road trips with a reason; retracing the steps of some well-known motorsport heroes like Fangio and Hopkirk, and less well-known (but no less interesting) men like Roy 'The Weasel' James, Jock Horsfall and Captain Albert Ball. There's some Hermann G�ring-inspired barnstorming too, thanks to lax security at an unnamed airfield.Starting with a �100 trip to Stelvio in a rented Fiat 500 and ending up hooning around France in a broken press fleet Maserati, the author unwittingly goes from weekend roadtripper to ham-footed TV presenter. Vehicles as diverse as the Volvo Laplander, Morgan 3 Wheeler and Mercedes 190E Cosworth all feature, in locations such as Zandvoort, Las Vegas and Sicily. Even time stuck in the office doesn't stop the mischief, with an amusing spell of chasing the ambulance chasers.This book is a loose collection of light-hearted and mildly incriminating stories from around Europe. It contains photographs, bad maps and a useless guide to dealing with foreign police. There are twelve uses of the word 'Porsche', six of the word 'apex' and one of the word 'frenulum'. Nothing handles like a rental car.

A haunting tale of desire, death, and the power of the past. Anthony is a British journalist whose American wife, Lucy, has suddenly died. Immersed in grief, he becomes obsessed with her youth and her life before they met. To satisfy his desperate need to uncover all the details of her previous existence, Anthony travels to a remote part of the Nevada desert to meet Lucy's first husband, who retained an emotional hold over her that endured even as Anthony's and Lucy's marriage grew increasingly passionate. The eerie, devastating encounter between the two men is the beginning of a journey that will take Anthony to the edge of madness, to a place where he is never far from the woman he loves. Thanksgiving is a dark and riveting work, an unsparing yet compassionate portrait of a man trapped in emotional turmoil. A brilliant departure for Michael Dibdin, it is certain to be his most widely read book yet.

This eBook collects 50 years of articles and reviews on the iconic American sportscar from the experts at Road & Track. Nothing says America like the Ford Mustang, the original pony car and the country’s most beloved sporting machine. This fully illustrated volume, pulled from the pages of Road & Track, documents the rise of this automotive icon—the brainchild of crude engineering, modern styling, and fantastic marketing. This eBook looks back across 50 years of coverage, from recaps of Ford’s game-changing win at Le Mans in 1966 to the dark years of the Mustang II. There are road tests, comparisons, and reviews from the R&T archives. Taken as a whole, this half-century of automotive journalism demonstrates why the car that defined a generation continues to mean so much to so many.

Part of our socialization is the urge to perform. We perform images of ourselves for others. For some, the urge is so great and the talent sufficient that we become performers. Performance Art is a series of short stories about performers and performances that are extreme—fire-eaters, knife-throwers, stand-up comedians, escape-artists, weight-loss artists—why we watch them, and why they do what they do. David Kranes dives into the inner lives of these risk-takers, exploring the allures and the costs of “performance.” His characters are unpredictable, quirky, and sometimes bizarre, but Kranes also reveals their humanity and insecurities. The result is a collection that is engagingly unique, sometimes comical, ironic, heart-tugging, and full of unexpected insights and delights.

The thrilling sequel to the ripped-from-the-headlines crime novel about three brothers who became Sweden's most wanted criminals, and the father who made them that way. After six years in prison, Leo Duvnjac is free. Prosecuted for numerous crimes--including ten bank robberies, planting a bomb in Stockholm's Central Station, and pulling off northern Europe's largest-ever weapons theft--he was convicted of just two robberies in the end. Unreformed, Leo has spent his imprisonment plotting one final heist, but he only has a brief window following his release to pull it off. The plan is to steal more than 100 million Swedish crowns from Sweden's largest police station--and then disappear forever. It is a decision that will threaten what remains of his relationships with his father and brothers, who also went to prison for the earlier robberies, and set him on a collision course with the aggressive cop who sent them to jail, John Broncks.

People ascribe different origins to their fairy tales. Many believe that fairies are the spirits of the dead. Often their origin is described as divine. The majority of fairy tales are the product of European folklore, the most famous being the tales of the "little people" or leprechauns of Celtic or Saxon legend. When a mysterious medallion is unearthed during an archaeological dig in Ireland, the new discovery sets an ancient and evil plan in motion bringing together six strangers in a race against time, a race against discovery, a race against extinction. The mystery and intrigue continue to escalate as each comes closer to knowing the truth about the fabled Golden Valley and whether or not leprechauns do really exist. With the evil and ruthless billionaire, Martin Gaft hot on the trail of discovery, the family that was sworn to protect the ancient secret of Ireland's precious Golden Valley must strive to continue hiding the truth. Even if it means sacrificing their lives to do it.
