Mitch Rapp confronts a very different kind of killer in this explosive addition to Vince Flynn’s #1 New York Times bestselling series, written by Kyle Mills.
With President Anthony Cook convinced that Mitch Rapp poses a mortal threat to him, CIA Director Irene Kennedy is forced to construct a truce between the two men. The terms are simple: Rapp agrees to leave the country and stay in plain sight for as long as Cook controls the White House. In exchange, the administration agrees not to make any moves against him.
This fragile détente holds until Cook’s power-hungry security adviser convinces him that Rapp has no intention of honoring their agreement. To put him on the defensive, they leak the identity of his partner, Claudia Gould. As Rapp races to neutralize the enemies organizing against her, he discovers that a new type of assassin is on her trail.
Known only as Legion, the shadowy killer has created a business model based on double-blind secrecy. Neither the assassin nor the client knows the other’s identity. Because of this, Legion can’t be called off nor can they afford to fail. No matter how long it takes—weeks, months, years—they won’t stand down until their target is dead. Faced with the seemingly impossible task of finding and stopping Legion, Rapp and his people must close ranks against a world that has turned on them.

One of the most critically acclaimed suspense writers of our time, "New York Times" bestseller Gillian Flynn takes that statement to its darkest place in this unputdownable masterpiece about a marriage gone terribly, terribly wrong.
On a warm summer morning in North Carthage, Missouri, it is Nick and Amy Dunne's fifth wedding anniversary. Presents are being wrapped and reservations are being made when Nick's clever and beautiful wife disappears from their rented McMansion on the Mississippi River. Husband-of-the-Year Nick isn't doing himself any favors with cringe-worthy daydreams about the slope and shape of his wife's head, but passages from Amy's diary reveal the
alpha-girl perfectionist could have put anyone dangerously on edge. Under mounting pressure from the police and the media--as well as Amy's fiercely doting parents--the town golden boy parades an endless series of lies, deceits, and inappropriate behavior. Nick is oddly evasive, and he's definitely bitter--but is he really a killer?
As the cops close in, every couple in town is soon wondering how well they know the one that they love. With his twin sister, Margo, at his side, Nick stands by his innocence. Trouble is, if Nick didn't do it, where is that beautiful wife? And what was in that silvery gift box hidden in the back of her bedroom closet?
With her razor-sharp writing and trademark psychological insight, Gillian Flynn delivers a fast-paced, devilishly dark, and ingeniously plotted thriller that confirms her status as one of the hottest writers around.
The Oxford Handbook of John Donne presents scholars with the
history of Donne studies and provides tools to orient scholarship
in this field in the twenty-first century and beyond. Though
profoundly historical in its orientation, the Handbook is not a
summary of existing knowledge but a resource that reveals patterns
of literary and historical attention and the new directions that
these patterns enable or obstruct.
Part I -- Research resources in Donne Studies and why they they
matter -- emphasizes the heuristic and practical orientation of the
Handbook, examining prevailing assumptions and reviewing the
specialized scholarly tools available. This section provides a
brief evaluation and description of the scholarly strengths,
shortcomings, and significance of each resource, focusing on a
balanced evaluation of the opportunities and the hazards each
offers.
Part II -- Donne's genres -- begins with an introduction that
explores the significance and differentiation of the numerous
genres in which Donne wrote, including discussion of the problems
posed by his overlapping and bending of genres. Essays trace the
conventions and histories of the genres concered and study the ways
in which Donne's works confirm how and why his "fresh invention"
illustrates his responses to the literary and non-literary contexts
of their composition.
Part III -- Biographical and historical contexts -- creates
perspective on what is known about Donne's life; shows how his life
and writings epitomized and affected important controversial issues
of his day; and brings to bear on Donne studies some of the most
stimulating and creative ideas developed in recent decades by
historians of early modern England.
Part IV -- Problems of literary interpretation that have been
traditionally and generally important in Donne Studies --
introduces students and researchers to major critical debates
affecting the reception of Donne from the 17th through to the 21st
centuries.

towards your goals with greater efficiency, purpose, and results.
Pat Flynn, a seasoned and serial entrepreneur and business mentor to
millions, draws on his own experiences and of those who have
successfully implemented his techniques. Lean Learning isn’t just about
absorbing information efficiently—it’s about reshaping your approach to
knowledge altogether.
This book teaches you how to identify what’s essential for your growth
and eliminate all the distractions that tend to bog you down.

not just on “working smarter” but on revolutionizing the way we absorb,
process, and use information every single day. It’s a perfect read for
entrepreneurs, professionals, and lifelong learners who are ready to
cut through the chaos and start making real progress.
Backed by Flynn’s extensive entrepreneurial success real-life case
studies, Lean Learning offers a transformative approach to mastering

The Modern Guide identifies five core characteristics of
contemporary networks and translates these into ten key pieces of
guidance for researchers and practitioners. Arguing that a
knowledge–practice gap has emerged due to the lack of contact
between network practitioners and researchers, contributors chart a
more collaborative future for the field. They identify how research
can be effectively translated and implemented to shape the future
of social networks. This Modern Guide highlights the key dimensions
of today’s networks, advancing knowledge of how networks operate
and how they will function in the future. It showcases the
diversity of these networks through extensive case studies,
examining experiments in network structure, governance, management,
leadership, and evaluation. Combining academic perspectives with
practice-based insights, it pushes disciplinary boundaries and
provides unique insights into researching and participating in
social networks. Providing a state-of-the-art overview of modern
networks, it will prove invaluable to academics and researchers in
organisation studies, public administration and management, and
social networks. It will also be a useful resource for
practitioners seeking guidance on how to adapt to the rapid
evolution of networks.
