Summary:

A DS Glyn Capaldi Mystery

DS Glyn Capaldi is in hospital recuperating from concussion and the after-effects of a car crash.

But, worse than that, a young woman is dead. She was the passenger in the car, whom he was bringing in for questioning following a night operation in a remote rural location.

Glyn is initially riven with guilt and self-recrimination. Until he starts to question the possibility that it may not have been an accident. But, if not, who had been the target? Had he made an enemy capable of achieving that level of planning and implementation? Or, if not him, what could a young woman have possibly done in her short country life to warrant that degree of retribution?

Glyn, on sick leave, has time on his hands to explore the background to these questions, and, in doing so, confronts a conspiracy that envelops arson, torture, blackmail, and leaves a clutter of bodies that further muddy the already murky waters.

Narrator: Arielle DeLisle

Format: Unabridged

Length: 12:33:00

Language: English

Release date: 03-18-14

Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers UK

Genres: History, Biography & Memoir, Business, World

Summary:

An insightful, behind-the-scences portrait of the technology giant Apple

Former Wall Street Journal technology reporter Yukari Iwatani Kane delves deep inside Apple in the two years since Steve Jobss death, revealing the tensions and challenges CEO Tim Cook and his team face as they try to sustain Jobss vision and keep the company moving forward.

Steve Jobs's death raised one of the most pressing questions in the tech and business worlds: Could Apple stay great without its iconic leader? Many inside the company were eager to prove that Apple could be just as innovative as it had been under Jobs. Others were painfully aware of the immense challenge ahead. As its business has become more complex and global, Apple has come under intense scrutiny, much of it critical. Maintaining market leadership has become crucial as it tries to conquer new frontiers and satisfy the publics insatiable appetite for insanely great products.

Based on over two hundred interviews with current and former executives, business partners, Apple watchers and others, Haunted Empire is an illuminating portrait of Apple today that offers clues to its future. With nuanced insights and colourful details that only a seasoned journalist could glean, Kane goes beyond the myths and headlines. She explores Tim Cooks leadership and its impact on Jobss loyal lieutenants, new product development, and Apples relationships with Wall Street, the government, tech rivals, suppliers, the media, and consumers.

Hard-hitting yet fair, Haunted Empire reveals the perils and opportunities an iconic company faces when it loses its visionary leader.

He charts his progress on his blog, proving that his techniques allow anyone to learn a language from anywhere.

Bennys blog, also called Fluent in 3 Months, is the largest language learning blog in the world.

The key principles of Bennys method:

- Speak from day one: find mother-tongue speaking partners online. Dont be self-conscious keep the flow going!

- Change your mindset: ditch the excuses, you can do it!

- Stay focused and determined: even if you dont have much time, never forget the goal youve set yourself and work at it.

- Learning a language doesnt need to be expensive: there is a wealth of free resources out there, if you know where to find them

- Reap the rewards! Learning a new language is not an end in itself, but a means to meeting new people and discovering new cultures. Curiosity will fuel your determination.
