Barclays AND Broken Promise: A Thriller [Kindle Edition]

Rosemary Gaynor is brutally stabbed to death in her home. Her baby somehow ends up in the possession of a mentally unstable young woman named Marla. The nanny has disappeared. Meanwhile there's a flurry of attempted rapes on the campus of the local college. And someone is staging sick visual jokes in unexpected places.

It's almost too much for the small police department of Promise Falls to handle. The town has plenty of economic woes -- and now all this madness...

The various narrative threads are rich in interesting characters with colorful relatives and troublesome kids. There's engaging dialog and unexpected drama at every turn. And it all flows seamlessly, at a crisp pace. Despite the complexity of the plot, and the multiple mysteries afoot, the narrative is never confusing.

Bank Secured Loans The Handbook of Loan Syndications and Trading

I recently received and read The Handbook of Loan Syndications and Trading. I purchased it because I am a lawyer who has recently begun working in the real estate and mortgage loan trading area, and wanted to get some deeper background on the loan sales and trading business operations of the financial institution clients I serve.

The Loan Sales and Trading Association (LSTA), the trade association for the loan sales and trading industry, has outdone itself with this fine book, which is a model of clarity which will set the standard in this field for years to come. It has contributions from a host of top experts in this field. In 20 years of practicing law, this work is by a country mile the most comprehensive and clearest professional book I have ever read. It does exactly the job I needed of providing the business background for a lawyer who works in this area. It would also be of great value to people who work in the financial services industry who work in the loan sales and trading area, as well as to those who work in other financial services areas who need to understand the expansive growth and functioning of the loan sales and trading field.

I cannot recommend this superb book highly enough.
