Sinopse

In this biting social satire, the Billionaire Condemnation Society is a group that begins assassinating billionaires to draw attention to the world’s wealth disparity. As humanity learns of the damage billionaires have been inflicting on people and planet, an angry global majority sides with the assassins.
 
 
 
With humor dark, The Billionaire Condemnation Society takes on economic inequality, the growing influence of the mega-rich, increasingly intrusive technology and a vacuous entertainment culture that distracts us from what’s really being done to our world—and by whom.
 
 
 
An alumnus of Adbusters and having written for international development and aid organizations such as Oxfam and Amnesty International, author Brutus Macdonald sees the global catastrophe-in-progress that is plutocratic rule. In his fiction debut, the author chooses humor to tell us how much trouble we’re in.

    Four novels in one volume, featuring a British doctor who investigates symptoms and suspects with equal dedication . . . This collection of crime thrillers stars Dr Cathy Moreland, who manages not only her own practice and her bipolar disorder, but also investigations into murder, and includes:Shooting Pains When a patient visits Cathy with a disturbing story of marital tension and a bruise on her arm, she’s understandably concerned. But Fiona, despite confiding her fear of her husband, refuses further help. After Fiona’s husband asks Cathy to sign his gun licence form days later, and then someone is killed with the gun, Cathy must sort through her suspicions and find out what’s been happening behind closed doors.Clinically Dead During a condolence call to medical secretary Sara Wiseman, Cathy finds it odd that Sara seems more upset about the recent suspicious death of her boss at the hospital than about the loss of her own mother to Alzheimer’s. But she’s far more alarmed when Sara’s husband says he suspects Sara was having an affair with the dead doctor—and fears that was the least of her transgressions . . .Lethal Resuscitation A medical conference becomes a murder scene when Cathy checks in at a country hotel for an advanced life support course—and the equipment meant for saving lives is instead used to kill a bad-tempered doctor.The Vanishing Patient Cathy is taken aback when an irate patient claims his ailing wife has been kidnapped by one of her colleagues using a false name. Is someone impersonating a doctor, or is Adam Steer delusional? But the more she looks into the bizarre story, the more she starts doubting her own sanity. Can she make sense of the events around her before everything spirals out of control?

    Do your job or move along already. Trouble is, I'm in too deep to do either one. 
    A year into Samantha True’s forensic photography classes she knows three things: 
    1.   Crime scenes are messy.  
    2.   Especially when you throw up on them. 
    3.   She may not be cut out for this. 
    When the police drag her to an investigation, she’s just as baffled by the scene. With clues like superhero masks, disco balls, and Bigfoot, are they ever going to find who did it?  
    As she digs deeper into the photographic evidence, she realizes her small town is full of secrets. And she might be happier staying in the dark.  
    A laugh-out-loud mystery that will keep you guessing and quickly turning the pages. One Hit Wonder offers the just right reader escape, but fair warning, this book leaves readers wanting more.

    A lovely little spot for murder! 
     
     
     
    Not much happens in Biddle Rhyne, a quiet, picturesque village in the southwest of England. Especially if you don't count the meat raffle on a Thursday night and the odd sheep escaping a field. 
     
     
     
    However, that's all set to change when Julia Ford, a normal(ish) twenty-something who works in the local pub, stumbles upon a murder victim. 
     
     
     
    Upsetting, but not the end of the world. Particularly as the victim is Audrey White, the cantankerous owner of a nearby garden center. 
     
     
     
    But when the police discover Julia had argued with the woman in the past, and her fingerprints are found on a death threat, she is accused of the crime, and her life is turned upside down. 
     
     
     
    Released on police bail and encumbered with an unfetching ankle tag, Julia will have to clear her own name. 
     
     
     
    Yet the murderer is intent that she takes the fall. Will Julia land on her feet?
