After a radical plan of world domination is uncovered, an elite intelligence team must attempt to stop the jihadist threat before western civilization is destroyed forever.

It is 1966, and Commander Trent McStuart has just landed inside the area known as the Golden Triangle, Southeast Asia's most prolific source of opiates. He has no idea that he is about to uncover a secret microfilm containing the key to radical Islam's hundred-year plan to dominate the world.

Once the shocking scheme is revealed, it commands the immediate attention of the US and British governments. As both countries mobilize intelligence forces to track down its source, they call on the elusive Black Orchid, a covert, London- based agency, to lead in the endeavor. In turn, the Black Orchid recruits members from MI5, MI6, the CIA and the NSA to devise a means to combat the plan's initial phase, setting its sights on one of radical Islam's primary sources of funding- the opium fields of Afghanistan.

In this riveting tale based on actual people and events, only time will tell if the Black Orchid can eliminate the forces determined to destroy western civilization-before it is too late.

In the spring of 1914, two college friends, Thomas "Tiggy" McStuart and Hans von Gotha, one British and the other German, find themselves on opposite sides of the impending war. Tiggy's dream of becoming a barrister and Hans' plan to receive his doctorate are quickly fading. As Hans leaves for Germany after being conscripted, he realizes their friendship might never be the same. Tiggy, feeling compelled to defend the crown, joins the London Light Infantry where he excels as a sniper in World War I and is eventually captured by the Germans. Meanwhile, Hans completes express doctorate training and is sent to serve at a field hospital in France. The lives of the two friends reconnect in a way neither of them thought possible. Based on real-life events, Legends of the Black Orchid follows Tiggy and Hans through World War I and the start of World War II. It depicts how circumstances and the influences of the Black Orchid, a society formed by the royal families of Europe, bring them together as one, ultimately making them part of an exclusive intelligence unit that becomes the platform on which the British and American governments form a cooperative base for espionage.

Much has been written in charity law on the type of benefits that charities can provide - charitable purposes - and towards whom such benefits must be directed - the public benefit question. Almost nothing has been written about when benefits must be provided. However, accumulation of assets by charities raises profound ethical, economic and social considerations that are highlighted by the present retreat of the welfare state and the impact of the Global Financial Crisis and COVID-19. This book analyses the issue through a normative, doctrinal and comparative analysis of the legal constraints upon accumulation by charities. It reveals that the legal restraints contain significant gaps in relation to the intergenerational distribution of benefits and to the balance of decision-making between generations. In particular, the book asserts that there is room for law reform to better identify and incorporate principles of intergenerational justice into the regulation of charities.
