The House of Silk:A Sherlock Holmes Novel
The House of Silk
PUBLISHER : Mulholland Books
For the first time in its 125-year history, the Arthur Conan Doyle Estate has authorized a new Sherlock Holmes novel: London, 1890. 221B Baker Street. A fine art dealer named Edmund Carstairs visits Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson to beg for their help. He is being menaced by a strange man in a flat cap - a wanted criminal who seems to have followed him all the way from America. In the days that follow, his home is robbed, his family is threatened.
And then the first murder takes place.
Almost unwillingly, Holmes and Watson find themselves being drawn ever deeper into an international conspiracy connected to the teeming criminal underworld of Boston, the gas-lit streets of London, opium dens and much, much more.

The Crash Course

Chris Martenson gave up a successful and conventional career to study the two great problems that we face: running out of critical resources - especially carbon-based energy - and a congenital failure to process unpleasant facts. Reading “The Crash Course” will help you recognize how dangerous our future is likely to be and will help you prepare for it. It is a job well done.
One Click: Jeff Bezos and the Rise of Amazon.com
One Click
AUTHOR : Richard L. Brandt
PUBLISHER : Portfolio Hardcover
Amazon’s business model is deceptively simple: Make online shopping so easy and convenient that customers won’t think twice. It can almost be summed up by the button on every page: “Buy now with one click.”
Why has Amazon been so successful?
Much of it has to do with Jeff Bezos, the CEO and founder, whose unique combination of character traits and business strategy have driven Amazon to the top of the online retail world.
Richard Brandt charts Bezos’s rise from computer nerd to world-changing entrepreneur. His success can be credited to his forward-looking insights and ruthless business sense.
