When a big case is on the line, Auty is the suit you want in your corner. And he owes it all to his friend, mentor, and senior partner of his law firm, Ed Fielding. So Auty doesn't think twice about taking a plane from Wisconsin to Florida to break the news to the old man in person. He hopes to find some time to relax in the sun, but there will be no downtime on this trip.

What terrible secret has Ed Fielding been keeping from Auty all these years? Why is Auty giving up a six million dollar inheritance? Why is he risking his life for a gorgeous flight attendant and a teenage college student he barely knows? And why are there suddenly people trying to kill him?

Join Auty as he pursues his dreams, tries to save his friends, and uncovers mysteries in Gold Fish.

As a sinner enters the confessional, he glances about the empty church. Father Dan Rutledge waits patiently for Ray Cronin to begin his declarations of guilt. No one hears the squeak of church door as a tall shadow quietly enters and trains his weapon on the confessional doors. Moments later, Ray Cronin is dead, Father Dan Rutledge is barely hanging on, and the only thing everyone knows is that someone has already killed four priests in Dade County in the last six months.

Traditional valuation approaches are increasingly recognised as being insufficient to address the wicked valuation problems of the diverse peoples and groups that inhabit the globe from north, south, east to west. This book demonstrates the limitations of science and, in particular economics, as the foundation on which valuations are traditionally based. It demonstrates the importance of and provides justification for the personal, cultural values and norms which underpin our assessment of "value", and the fact that these vary across the world. In Wicked Valuations Michael McDermott develops a means of engaging with highly complex valuation problems. His autoethnography provides a lens to draw on knowledge and experience from his 40 years in land valuation in Africa and the Asia-Pacific, while documentary analysis is used to draw in the views of other valuation practitioners and scholars who are becoming increasingly aware of the need to develop ways to adapt land valuation processes to the complexity of our contemporary landscapes.
