  Romeo and Juliet is perhaps the most famous of Shakespeare's plays and is thought to be the most famous love story in Western history. It concerns the fate of two very young lovers who would do anything to be together. 
  The Montagues and the Capulets of Verona, Italy, are in the midst of a long-standing feud when Romeo Montague drops in on a masquerade party at the Capulets'. While there he meets and woos the daughter of the house, Juliet. She likewise returns his passion, and their secret meeting later that night on her bedroom balcony begins a series of tragic events that no one could have foretold.

  A riveting storyline that includes a sting operation carried out by 20-armed federal agents on the tarmac of a South Florida runway, and the tales of a prisoner living inside America’s maximum security prison, Leavenworth Penitentiary – this autobiography will captivate you from start to finish.Arrested With a Stolen JetIt was 9:05 in the morning. The sun was shining as our crew drove the silver Mercedes to meet the pilot of the Cessna Citation II jet taxiing toward us on the tarmac of the executive airfield in Florida.Something seemed off, but it was too late for the four of us to abort the mission.We were committed.The door of the plane opened, and off stepped the pilot I’d met with two days earlier at a Kansas City hotel room. He had agreed, for a price, to deliver a jet that was on our laundry list of planes we were stealing from the United States and delivering to the Colombians in South America.This was our second plane in a month. The pick-up place was Boca Raton, and the delivery location, Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands, where the plane would be repainted in a hanger, data plates changed, and then used in the cocaine trafficking world by the Cali Cartel.Later, I would discover two things: Boca Raton is translated, Mouth of the Rat, and a big rat was among us.I pulled a bag filled with cash from our vehicle and stepped onto the plane to meet the pilot to hand over a partial payment. The rest would be delivered once the plane was safely in the air. My pilot entered behind me in preparation to take the captain’s seat.In a matter of seconds, 20+ federal agents descended on us from all four sides, in unmarked vehicles and running on foot, all with weapons.The next thing I knew, a chrome 45 caliber pistol was pointed in my face while the agent was yelling, “Get your hands up, YOU ARE UNDER ARREST!”Everything was happening so fast. My head was spinning. My hands automatically went up in the air to display the international sign of surrender.

  Does Lieutenant Vera Backland lust for her suspect? Has she plotted revenge for her lover? 
  Go on a journey through this story to find out who might've been the actual killer and who might've been manipulated to think that they're the murderer. 
  On the night of January 20, Lieutenant Vera Backland visits her favorite bar and sees a man who attracts her in an unusual way. A few hours later she visits a strange crime scene, in Sleepy Hollow. But Vera is not at her best; the disappearance of someone close to her has wreaked havoc on her psyche and she knows she's not one hundred percent ready to lead the new Complex Crimes Bureau in New York City. 
  Along with her partner Luke Faller, she must find the murderer before he continues to claim more victims, guided by the play The Divine Comedy and by the classification he has made of sinners. 
  Vera doubts everything and everyone. Even from herself, and for this she asks for help from her psychiatrist Alan Holt and her former tutor Clarence Perkins. She must not only understand the killer's mind but her own. With a vast criminal imagination and a new erotic imagination, Vera must come to terms with the shadows she carries before the shadows consume her.

  The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives.  Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives. 
  But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy. 
  For centuries England has always had a leading and admired reputation for its poets and poetry.  In this volume we explore those born in the South-East who created such revered, enduring and respected verse.
