After barely surviving thirty-nine days of hell in Costa Rica the site of his first-ever botched assignment the Specialist is just coming off a six-month hiatus when the beautiful Mimi Sabo contacts him. Desperate to find her kidnapped father and with just days to come up with millions in ransom, Mimi needs the Specialist's expertise, and quick. But there is only one problem: she is from Costa Rica the last place the Specialist ever wants to be again. The Specialist is prepared to decline the job until Mimi slaps a fat check on his desk. When he begins his investigation, he enlists the help of his friend and former Israeli secret service member and soon discovers that things are not as they appear. Swept up in a life-or-death mission, the Specialist heads to Costa Rica, where he must walk a path of corruption and betrayal, pitted against drug cartels, dirty cops, turncoat agents, and a terrorist bomber. But even the Specialist could never have predicted what happens next. In this gripping thriller, one man must return to the place that has given him so much trouble and face his demons in order to solve a case for a beautiful client. "The Specialist is chock full of those good action packed ingredients of the tough, hard-boiled American covert-action thriller which currently fill our nation's bookstores." -by Robert Fleming, New World Review, VOL. 6 NO. 45

Perhaps you are part of a big national brokerage or an office that specializes in luxury real estate. You might have expected the company owner to provide you with cutting edge marketing tools but instead all you have received are the same old trainings and collateral that everyone else uses.

Specialist Markets in the Early Modern Book World, edited by Richard Kirwan and Sophie Mullins, investigates an underexplored yet important facet of early modern book production. Bringing together 19 detailed case studies, this volume considers and reconstructs the characteristics of specialist book production in the early modern period. In particular it explores the motives that led to specialisation ranging from the desire for profit on the part of risk-taking, entrepreneurial individuals or family firms to the more propagandist or missionising aims of corporate groups who subsidised production, often without regard for profit. The book also explores the economic and personal pressures and perils that accompanied specialist production, which was often a risk-laden enterprise that could end in financial and social ruin.
