When Frank teams up with Spud he thinks he’s got it made. But he hasn’t. He’’s made a deal with the Devil.
‘Dodgy’ Frank Kusy, born into poverty from immigrant parents, learns to live on his wits––first as an unwitting money collector for Ronnie Kray, later as a Buddhist trader in London’s St Martin’s-in-the-Fields market. Then he meets up with thuggish ‘Spud’ who is so good at scaring people, notably the Petrovs, two encroaching Russian gangsters, that he hires him on the spot as his business partner.
But it’s a deal with the Devil. Spud is a loose cannon, liable to blow up at any moment. The two travel to India to become the largest wholesaler of hippy-Hindi glad rags in the UK, and to fulfill their dream of becoming rupee millionaires.
Along the way, they pick up a motley crew of kooky characters––Ram, a lovable, crutch-bound Rajasthani, George, an irascible American, Nick and Anna, a quirky Canadian couple, Susie, a Dagenham girl gone ‘native’, and Rose, the secret love of Ram’s life. These become the ‘Pushkar Posse’, a group of oddball traveler-entrepreneurs who meet once a year to have fun and make money in equal measure.
Join Frank on this wild rite of passage through India.

A tragic accident. An opportunistic CEO. A shocking announcement at the opening of a bizarre new stock market.
Seven year-old Ryan Tyler, Jr. has just been adopted. By a corporation.
Ticker symbol RTJ is the initial public offering on James Prescott’s Avillage Exchange, a market that trades in the financial futures of exceptionally gifted orphans.
Before the brilliant first-grader has even had a chance to catch his breath, he is whisked off to live with seemingly perfect new parents he’s not sure he can trust. And he’s got a sinking feeling that the only ally he has from his previous life is somehow conspiring with the corporation.
With Prescott and a board of directors pulling strings behind the scenes, Ryan’s only chance at freeing himself from his shareholders may be to team up with his fellow Avillage orphans: an embittered computer-programming savant, a once-in-a-generation NBA prospect, and a show-stopping Latin American model.
Koontz’s fast-paced yet introspective writing style is sure to keep your mind whirring and the pages turning, right to the explosive final page.

101 Delicious Chinese Recipes – discover the simplicity and smoothness that surround the dishes of the Middle Kingdom (Easy cooking)
By Chan Tao / Genre: China, Asia, Cookbooks / Rating: 4.4 out of 5 stars (8 reviews)
In its traditional dishes, which are renowned for their perfect balance of flavors, China uses an infinite variety of meats, vegetables and spices. The vastness of this empire has given rise to various culinary arts, which depend greatly on the region. They are adapted to the climates of those regions that divide the territory into four parts: Canton, the Northeast region, Sichuan and the Shanghai region.
Canton uses a variety of natural ingredients, which are sautéed or steamed. This southern region regularly flavors its dishes with ginger or soy sauce. Cantonese cuisine is the best known in Western countries, where it is considered to be the best in China.
The Northeast region, where the capital of Beijing is located, has a harsher climate but boasts delicious dishes, such as the famous Peking duck. The cuisine of Beijing was formerly called ‘Mandarin cuisine’ or ‘imperial cuisine’ and it is, indeed, in the capital where you can find the famous Forbidden City and the home of the Emperors.
In Sichuan, in the center of the country, the food is hotter and spicier. Sichuan pepper, which is a slightly lemony spice, is used in almost all of the region’s dishes. The high consumption of chili suits the hot and humid climate of the region.
In the region of the megacity of Shanghai, the ingredients are slowly braised to create delectable dishes of fresh meat and fish. Sugar is added in large quantities but you cannot really notice it. The dishes flavored with sweet and sour sauce are the stuff of legend.
In this book, ‘101 Delicious Chinese Recipes’, I invite you to discover the simplicity and savor of the dishes of the middle kingdom. You are in for a few surprises!
