Stamp Duty Land Tax ('SDLT') raises some 6 billion per annum - more revenue than inheritance tax and capital gains tax put together. Providing a much-needed, incisive and comprehensive commentary on every aspect of SDLT, this book will appeal to property lawyers, tax specialists, and anyone involved in land transactions. It gives a detailed discussion of the legislation and puts forward suggested interpretations and planning opportunities. The second edition is fully updated and deals with the many changes that have been made since the introduction of SDLT. New chapters provide in-depth coverage of the treatment both of leases and partnerships. Areas of difficulty which arise in practice are dealt with throughout. In addition, the chapter on planning has been revised to take account of new legislation and case law, including the impact of the SDLT disclosure rules.

Dr. Pamela Bell is missing, and an atypical (but apparently effective) research group is pursuing her. Among them, her longtime colleague, Paul, and her twin sister, Jolene. But, among them, there is also a traitor: why does someone want to prevent the group from finding Pam? What awaits them once they cross the mysterious portal? What are the terrible secrets that the extraordinary and advanced civilization that lives beyond the portal hides? With an increasingly fast pace, the stories of the characters, and on balance of the world itself, come to an unexpected and breathtaking conclusion.
