  • The Triumphs of Eugene Valmont

    Robert Barr

    eBook (MysteriousPress.com/Open Road, June 30, 2015)
    Can Paris’s most interesting detective make it in London? Eugène Valmont was once considered one of Paris’s top detectives. But a high-profile failure to recover the jewels of Marie Antoinette made him the laughingstock of the city, and in turn caused him to flee to the last place any self-respecting Parisian would ever want to be: London. Despite the stiffness of his English contemporaries and the red tape of their legal system, however, Valmont continues to try to solve crimes. Going toe-to-toe with the likes of his crime-fighting rival, Sherlock Holmes, Valmont will break any rule necessary to catch his man—no matter what the stakes. This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.

  • Macroeconomics

    Robert J. Barro

    Hardcover (The MIT Press, Oct. 8, 1997)
    Robert Barro's Macroeconomics has become the classic textbook presentation of the equilibrium approach to macroeconomics. In its first four editions, this book has shown undergraduates how market-clearing models with strong microeconomic foundations can be used to understand real-world phenomena and to evaluate alternative macroeconomic policies. Moreover, a single, unified framework works as well for short-term business fluctuation as for long-term economic growth. This latest edition includes the most recent theoretical and empirical developments in economic growth, recent evidence on the macroeconomics of labor markets and public finance, and up-to-date results on the interplay between nominal and real variables.

  • The Isaac Identity: A Novel of Good and Evil...and In-Between

    Robert E. Baker

    eBook (Robert E. Baker, April 7, 2016)
    A respected therapist, a talented teacher of philosophy, and a brilliant college student form an unlikely alliance to bring to justice the worst kind of criminal untouched by the law. The therapist needs revenge, the professor needs to right a moral wrong, and the student needs to satiate an undeniable hunger to kill. Dr. Madeline "Maddie" Rivers earned her psych degree from a prestigious women's college, where she found a lifelong friend who does not know of Maddie's collusion in recent homicides. To Maddie’s chagrin, her friend marries a detective on the Maine State Police, who is investigating the apparent serial killings in cooperation with the FBI. The professor, suffering from fugue states, becomes one of Maddie's clients, and falls in love with her, in spite of learning of her role in the serial murders in New England. He is able to rationalize and justify that her behavior transcends accepted moral norms. Stanley Rabinowitz, one of the professor’s students, is referred to Dr. Rivers by his teacher to treat what Stanley says is his obsessive compulsive disorder. Dr. Rivers quickly determines he is not suffering from OCD alone. She identifies and understands Stanley's pain because, like him, she, too, is a survivor of child abuse. Her final diagnosis is that Stanley is a psychopath with lesser disorders and susceptible to manipulation. This could lead to her finally finding justice by the assassination known pedophiles…through a willing instrument under her control.
