Making things right was drug-lord-turned-contractor/minister Harold Brandon’s new purpose. But he soon finds out that changing sides comes at a steep price. Harold’s Harley roars across asphalt and dirt toward a meeting with DOJ agents and a few informants. It’s been eight years since he decided to do the right thing and take on the cartel he once served, and five since he became one of the Department of Justice’s most prized undercover operatives. While he’s good at what he does, Harold still teeters between love and hate for his job — for each assignment draws him closer to the life he now despises. And yet, even when every mission feels like his last, Harold can’t bring himself to turn his back on his double life. May it be for adventure or simply for retaliation, he doesn’t quite know. What he is sure of, however, is that he has a yearning to make things right. But, as soon as Harold starts a new mission, sinister forces connive against him and seek to teach him a lesson. How they were going to go about it, however, remains to be seen. Find out for yourself in “Operation Tucson Cartel: Harold Brandon’s War Against the Cartels,” the first installment to the bestselling “Code Name: The Fox” series by prolific author Dr. Hal Bradley, DD!

From the age of 14, Caitlin was completely controlled, repeatedly raped, provided with alcohol, given drugs, sold and passed on to new gangs over and over again. The majority of her abusers were Pakistani men, who were blatant in their attacks upon her, often collecting her from school or home, to be taken to flats they owned, family homes, or hotels booked for the day, to be horrifically and systematically abused.At a time when the abuse ring realities of young white women in Rotherham and other major English cities are coming to light, Caitlin's story will appal readers - not just because of the degree of horrific attacks which were perpetrated upon her, but also because of the ways in which the authorities refused to act. Caitlin speaks openly about what she has suffered, and also shows just how unwilling many people are to face up to what is happening in our midst, for fear of being called racist. By bravely speaking out, she will, hopefully prove just how deep these problems are and just how the abusers get away with it in plain sight of the authorities.Zum Buch
