Описание: In this cautionary but optimistic book, Figueres and Rivett-Carnac--the architects of the 2015 Paris Climate Change Agreement--tackle arguably the most urgent and consequential challenge humankind has ever faced: the world's changing climate and the fate of humanity. In The Future We Choose, the authors outline two possible scenarios for the planet. In one, they describe what life on Earth will be like by 2050 if we fail to meet the Paris targets for carbon dioxide emission reduction. In the other, they describe what it will take to create and live in a carbon neutral, regenerative world. They argue for confronting the climate crisis head on, with determination and optimism. How we all of us address the climate crisis in the next thirty years will determine not only the world we will live in but also the world we will bequeath to our children and theirs. The Future We Choose presents our options and tells us, in no uncertain terms, what governments, corporations, and each of us can and must do to fend off disaster.

Описание: THE FIRST RULE OF THE HEIST IS: NEVER GO ALONE. "A pure adrenaline rush." - Kirkus Reviews A sudden rash of elaborate cat burglaries in Manhattan are unsolved, and even more shocking...
Each heist is becoming more complex, more dangerous, and more profitable for the unknown thieves.
And the city is starting to panic.
Meanwhile, Detective Jake Rivett of the NYPD's elite Major Crimes Division is deep undercover on another mission--and way, way off the reservation.
He doesn't want this case. But it wants him. Because maybe the heists are more connected to the city's underground criminal networks than he thinks...
Or maybe not.
A crew of social media obsessed millennials might be responsible... Might is the key word.
Ordered to pursue the case to save his career, Rivett dives into the scene in pursuit of the truth. But what, and who, he finds--deep in the sewers, up in the construction cranes above skyscrapers, and everywhere else in New York--will change Jake Rivett forever.
And might even save him from himself.
The second novel in the critically acclaimed Jake Rivett Series, Never Go Alone is a detective mystery, action heist thriller and urban exploration joyride on the razor's edge of modern culture.
From Kirkus Reviews:
"The most exhilarating action set pieces this side of either version of the movie Point Break."
"Written in a particularly visceral fashion... a] pure adrenaline rush."

Описание: ONE ALGORITHM: EXECUTED. FOUR TONS OF GOLD: GONE. "As entertainingly raunchy as The Wolf of Wall Street or the Showtime TV series Billions." -Kirkus Reviews When a rogue quantitative programmer intentionally crashes the gold index, it seems that Wall Street's worst nightmare has come true. In truth, the crisis has just begun. Across town, an armored truck filled with $120M of gold bullion is hijacked by an ingeniously crafted electromagnetic crane and seemingly driven into thin air. Hacker David Belov discovers that his virtual "Flash Crash" was simply a required stepping stone towards the largest physical gold robbery in history, and that's he's been framed for the resulting chaos, the lives of his beloved wife and son on the balance... Even worse, the cops are on David's tail. Brooding, hardboiled detective Jake Rivett wants to crack the case wide open. With Jake and the NYPD's finest operators from the Major Crimes Division actively seeking to locate and arrest David--and other, darker elements nipping at his heels--David is forced to confront his own past in order to have a future. He wants to prove his innocence. Unless he's actually the guilty one... The Flash Crash case propels David and Rivett from the corridors of elite trading floors in the untouchable and hubristic spires of Manhattan to the row houses and local mobsters of Bensonhurst. And eventually, it will lead them all the way to an impenetrable gold vault filled with hundreds of tons of untraceable commodities... FLASH CRASH... is a modern cyber heist thriller and financial thriller for the current day, filled with family, friends, and organized criminals on all rungs of society, and brimming with intense, exhilarating action set pieces and neck-breaking twists. FLASH CRASH is... "an absolute bullseye, reinventing the heist thriller for the information age." - BestThrillers.com ("One of the year's Best Thrillers")
