Summary

"Dark Web Hitmen" explores the unsettling world of alleged hitman-for-hire services on the dark web, questioning whether these platforms are genuine criminal enterprises or elaborate scams. This true crime investigation delves into the intersection of technology and criminal behavior, examining real-life cases of individuals seeking to commission murder online. While the existence of functional hitman services is largely unconfirmed, the book argues that the perception of their existence poses a significant threat, highlighting the dangers of online exploitation. 

 
The book begins by establishing the context of the dark web, explaining its architecture and accessibility. It then presents detailed case studies of individuals arrested for attempting to hire hitmen online, exploring their motivations and psychological states. A key insight is that many of these sites are likely sophisticated scams designed to extract money from vulnerable individuals.

 
The technical aspects of the dark web platforms, including security protocols and cryptocurrency payment methods, are analyzed to determine the likelihood of genuine criminal activity. Ultimately, "Dark Web Hitmen" provides a fact-based and analytical assessment of the risks and realities of dark web hitman services. Drawing from court records, law enforcement investigations, and cybersecurity expert interviews, the book culminates in an evaluation of the implications for law enforcement, cybersecurity professionals, and the general public, offering recommendations for preventing online exploitation and mitigating associated risks.

    Ninth Building is a fascinating collection of vignettes drawn from Zou Jingzhi's experience growing up during the Cultural Revolution, first as a boy in Beijing and then as a teenager exiled to the countryside. Zou poetically captures a side of the Cultural Revolution that is less talked about—the sheer tedium and waste of young life, as well as the gallows humor that accompanies such desperate situations. Jeremy Tiang's enthralling translation of this important work of fiction was awarded a PEN/Heim Grant.

    Irina Nikifortchuk was nineteen years old and a Ukrainian schoolteacher when she was abducted to be a forced laborer in the Leica camera factory in Nazi Germany. Eventually pulled from the camp hospital to work as a domestic in the Leica owners' household, Irina survived the war and eventually found her way to Canada. 
     
     
     
    Decades later Sasha Colby, Irina's granddaughter, seeks out her grandmother's story over a series of summer visits and gradually begins to interweave the as-told-to story with historical research. As she delves deeper into the history of the Leica factory and World War II forced labor, she discovers the parallel story of Elsie Kühn-Leitz, Irina's rescuer and the factory heiress, later imprisoned and interrogated by the Gestapo on charges of "excessive humanity." 
     
     
     
    This is creative nonfiction at its best as the mystery of Irina's life unspools skillfully and arrestingly. Despite the horrors that the story must tell, it is full of life, humor, food, and the joy of ordinary safety in Canada. The Matryoshka Memoirs takes us into a forgotten corner of history, weaving a rich and satisfying tapestry of survival and family ties and asking what we owe those who aid us.

    If you could have a dinner party with anyone dead or alive, who would it be? 
     
     
     
    That's the question film critic and food writer Alissa Wilkinson answered as she gathered a hypothetical table of women who challenged norms and defied conventional wisdom. 
     
     
     
    Ella Baker, Alice B. Toklas, Hannah Arendt, Octavia Butler, Agnes Varda, Elizabeth David, Edna Lewis, Maya Angelou, Laurie Colwin: these smart, engaging, revolutionary, and creative twentieth-century women were all profoundly influenced by their own relationships to food, drink, and other elements of sustenance. 
     
     
     
    In Salty, Wilkinson explores the ways food managed to root these women into their various callings. For some, it was cultivating perseverance in the face of hardship. For others, it was nurturing a freedom to act, even in the face of opposition, toward justice and equality. For others, it was an examination of what it means to be human with all its desire, heartbreak, sacrifice, isolation, and liberty. 
     
     
     
    Salty is Alissa Wilkinson's invitation to you. Join these sharp, empowered, and often subversive women and discover how to live with courage, agency, grace, smarts, snark, saltiness, and sometimes feasting—even in uncertain times.
