    FIVE DECADES. A DOZEN STRETCHES BEHIND BARS. ONE SENTENCE WITH NO END DATE.  
    Bang Bang Ray Hill is a true crime legend in the making; a British gangster memoir from a man who lived every page of it. 
    Growing up hard on the wrong side of the tracks in 1950s London, Ray became a career criminal by his teens: an armed robber, a bare-knuckle prize-fighter, and an enforcer trusted by some of Britain's most feared criminal firms. 
    He crossed paths with the underworld's most notorious faces, rubbed shoulders with the era's most infamous names, and served time across five different decades of the UK prison system; watching crime, punishment, and the criminal underworld itself change beyond recognition. 
    Through it all, Ray lived by a code that even fellow villains respected: there were lines Ray Hill would not let anyone cross.But surviving the streets was only half the fight. Addiction, an indeterminate prison sentence with no fixed release date, and one final, desperate job pushed him to the very edge of his life. 
    This is a true crime memoir. 
    A prison memoir. 
    A story of violence, survival, and the long road out the other side. 
    Told entirely in Ray's own unfiltered voice.

    You reuse passwords. You click links without thinking. You accepted a connection request last week from someone you don't quite remember meeting. You have done at least one of these things in the past thirty days, and so has almost every person you know. 
    This book is about what happens next. 
    Moving Target: The Art of Online Camouflage follows Stevie Parker, a composite character built from the real experiences of people whose lives collided with cybercrime. Across twelve chapters, Stevie makes the same small, ordinary mistakes most of us make every day while real crime stories play out alongside her, sourced from FBI briefings, ransomware negotiators, fraud victims, and the criminals themselves. 
    This is not an IT book. This is a crime book. 
    The criminals in these pages are not mysterious hackers in hoodies. They are organized crime syndicates running businesses with quotas, shift changes, HR departments, and performance reviews. They have studied you longer than you have studied them. 
    Dean Mauro, host of Cyber Crime Junkies on YouTube, FBI InfraGard member, and VP of Growth at NetGain Technologies, has spent years sitting across from people who just found out. This book is everything he wished someone had told them before that conversation happened. 
    You do not need to become a cybersecurity expert. You do not need to build Fort Knox. You just need to stop being the easiest target on the street. The basics work. Camouflage works. And by the end of this book, Stevie Parker is out of range. 
    Now it is your turn. 
    Book One of The Moving Target Trilogy. Narrated by the author.

When Jackie returns to her Chinese birthplace with her aging American parents (former medical missionaries), profound questions arise about love and family. These questions set her on a quest to understand her troubled childhood and what she wants from life. Living in Alaska for five years, Jackie discovers her soul-place and an affinity for mountains and begins three decades of environmental work. Several solo visits to China help her forge a bridge of understanding and forgiveness with her mother. After her parents’ deaths, Jackie takes her adult children to China to retrace her parents’ 1932 trek into eastern Tibet. In so doing, she realizes she has come full circle to the authentic life she has craved.
