Here is the Naked Ape at his most primal - in love, at work, at war. Meet man as he really is: relative to the apes, stripped of his veneer as we see him courting, making love, sleeping, socialising, grooming, playing. Zoologist Desmond Morris's classic takes its place alongside Darwin's Origin of the Species, presenting man not as a fallen angel, but as a risen ape, remarkable in his resilience, energy and imagination, yet an animal nonetheless, in danger of forgetting his origins.With its penetrating insights on man's beginnings, sex life, habits and our astonishing bonds to the animal kingdom, The Naked Ape is a landmark, at once provocative, compelling and timeless.

Hank Thompson is living off the map in Mexico with a bagful of cash that the Russian mafia wants back and many, many secrets. So when a Russian backpacker shows up in town asking questions, Hank tries to play it cool. But he knows the jig is up when the backpacker mentions the money . . . and the family Hank left behind.

Along the way he'll face Federales and Border Patrol, mafiosi and vigilantes, extortionists and drug dealers, and a couple of psychotic surf bums with an ax to grind. From the golden beaches of the Yucatán to the seedy strip clubs of Vegas, Charlie Huston opens a door to the squalid underworld of crime and corruption - and invites the reader to live it in the extreme.

Sassy, curvy and red-haired, Amber wasn't a woman Joe would ever forget. Her cute temper made more than his blood pressure spike. In fact, it was possible that they were fated to be together. As long as he didn't strangle the stubborn woman first! Men were created to annoy women. It was a harsh fact that Amber noticed every time she came face to face with Sheriff Joe Lott. Sure, his shoulders were the kind girls drooled over and that dark, husky voice made her knees weak, but that sort of thing was for pushover women without the guts to face the world on their own. The only male she needed was her tortoise, and Joe could just stop running his eyes over her curves. But even Cupid has a sense of humor and his aim is never wrong. Throw in a drug dealer, a voodoo-wielding mother, a tortoise and a team of SEALs and you have a recipe for mayhem…and a determined sheriff who won't take no for an answer. One thing Joe knows for certain-life with his "Little Red" will never be boring! And he wouldn't have it any other way. Views: 27
