"A well-crafted gangland crime thriller with a fascinating military subplot and a deliciously mysterious villain." -BestThrillers.com
When a covert operation during the Vietnam War ends in tragedy, one of its members resolves to kill the man who betrayed it to the enemy. Now, fifteen years later, he'll finally get his chance.
Chicago, 1987. Home of mediocre baseball teams, gangs that rule the streets, and a Mexican drug cartel that supplies the city with heroin. Chicago Police Detective Marcelle DeSantis and her partner, Bernie Bernardelli, are working a series of heroin-related murders, and their job just got more complicated. The man who sabotaged the Vietnam operation, Robert Thornton, is now the chief enforcer for a Southeast Asian heroin cartel, and after fifteen years overseas he's arrived in Chicago to eliminate the reigning cartel and seize control of the city's heroin trade.
Racing to stop a drug war, Marcelle and Bernie don't realize they're about to be caught in a deadly crossfire: another man is circling in the wings, one of Thornton's soldiers from Vietnam, who's preparing to exact his long-sought revenge against his former mentor. He's the last person anyone would ever suspect, and when he finally makes his move, the paths of these four people will explosively converge.
“Profound and meaningful for anyone who seeks a life of purpose”
This numismatic edition of Andrew Weston's modern translation is richly annotated with living historical context to enhance your experience of the ancient philosophy text.
The deeply personal thoughts in Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations reach out across the ages, resounding with truth and meaning…. an antidote to chaos now, as it was then.
By reading or listening to the narrated book, you will gain valuable insight into ancient Greek and Roman philosophy through the eyes and contemplations of one man, who ruled an empire, and sought to do so wisely.
Marcus Aurelius wrote the Meditations between 170 to 180 AD while on campaign defending Roman borders from barbarian tribes and other incursions. His journals introduce us to the dauntless struggle of a philosopher king in some of the darkest days of his life defending the epicenter of Western Civilization.
His reflections on life, and what it takes to be a good man, have inspired thinkers, philosophers, statesmen, entrepreneurs, poets and people from all walks of life since antiquity. The timeless wisdom of stoic philosophy, born in the ancient civilizations of our past, continues to re-emerge as an invaluable guide to build unshakable resolve and resilience in the face of fate.
By coming to know Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations:
Gain insight and inspiration from Marcus Aurelius quotes like this:
"From Apollonius, I learned the importance of free will and unwavering determination. I learned to focus only on logic, and constancy even in sharp pain such as after losing a child, or during a long illness. He showed me that a person can be both resolute and yielding."
Reading or listening to The Meditations will inspire you, and help you understand how these journals came to be some of the most influential Roman stoic philosophy books in the history of the world.
“It’s as if we were meant to follow the threads of old stories so embedded in our collective mythology and history as to be inscribed in our very genes.” - Andrew Weston
Throughout his notes to self,written on scrolls called ‘books’ nearly 2000 years ago, Marcus Aurelius refers to people, heroes and myths, some you will recognize, like Socrates, others you may think you do not know, but you will be astonished to discover just how long the reach of history is.
Have you ever wondered what life was like in Roman times of 170 AD? How much did a bread cost? What stories did they like to read? What was life like… Read the story in coins with historical provenance!
A comprehensive index of the people and great thinkers from this era gives added value and ample opportunity for easy insight into the origins of our civilization. An important return to knowledge succession, written in a way that will enable you to reconnect to “ancient Roman empire history’ and to a time and people who were superbly alive - "people whose discoveries set the foundation for the future we now live.”
Do yourself a good deed …. connect to your civilizational heritage and soothe and strengthen your soul with stoic philosophy that has endured through the ages.

And even though it seems like an adventure based on following the rules of story structure and using various tropes of fiction would be predictable, I was never able to guess where this one was going next."

But these are human concerns. These are the concerns of those confined to land, those with legs. Ren grew up on stories of creatures of the deep, of the oceans and the rivers. Creatures that called sailors to their doom. That dragged them down and drowned them. That feasted on their flesh. The creature that she’s always longed to become: the mermaid.
Ren aches to be in the water. She dreams of the scent of chlorine, the feel of it on her skin. And she will do anything she can to make a life for herself where she can be free. No matter the pain. No matter what anyone else thinks. No matter how much blood she has to spill.
