The Price of Trust

The Price of Trust

Employees are important to any thriving business but can the people you employ potentially cause your company’s downfall? Dr Brian Warrington provides an unrivalled insight into stopping theft in the workplace. Occupational fraud – stealing from your employer – is booming across the globe and is costing companies millions. In the USA it is the fastest-growing form of crime and responsible for one in three business failures. In the UK, 72 percent of employees admitted to stealing from their firms more than once.

Dr Brian Warrington knows the damage that occupational fraud can cause. When the company he chaired fell victim, he began to research how to prevent this devastating crime. Following meticulous research into the behaviour patterns of potential perpetrators, Brian has now compiled his studies into this vital guide for employers to utilize in tackling occupational fraud, looking at how tell-tale personality disorders and early warning signs can be used to prevent the crime before it occurs.

The Price of Trust is the perfect solution to preventing workplace theft and building trust to make your business a more successful, crime-free environment.

The Pegasus Adventure

The Pegasus Adventure

The Pegasus Adventure is a tale of a small group of people dissatisfied with life on earth and determined to start a different way of life. To ensure that no-one can escape the intolerable New World Order imposed on the Earth, even space travel has been forbidden – or, indeed, any venture into space.  In reaction to this, the small band of adventurous people, mainly scientists, have come together to plan and work together to elude the throttlehold of a world dictatorship – in an isolated place, a desert no less, surprisingly, in a remote area of China!  Secrecy, of course, is of the utmost importance.

Will they succeed in building a spacecraft that will take them outside the earth’s atmosphere – and propel them to a new life of freedom and adventure, to a new world that they can seed to form a new earth where there are new heavens and new untethered ideologies?

The Pegasus Adventure is a page-turner, not just on account of the impetus of the story, but because of the fascinating, yet believable technological innovations that emerge as a result of the lateral and collaborative thinking of the individuals concerned.

The Patriotic Art

The Patriotic Art

Martin Rickerd considered accountancy, the Merchant Navy and journalism before joining the Foreign and Commonwealth Office a month after his eighteenth birthday as a filing clerk. Promotion soon followed, and there followed 38 years of adventure and challenge in the diplomatic service in countries around the world, from New Zealand to Barbados, Italy to Singapore and Liberia to the USA, interspersed by spells back at HQ in London. By the end of it all he had risen to the rank of Consul General, the senior resident British Government representative in an area of the southern USA three times the size of the United Kingdom. Despite all this responsibility Martin has never taken himself too seriously, as this book shows.

Robin Chesham is a successful consultant surgeon with a keen interest in genetics. When he meets Georgiana Gilmour, a young rising star in the field, at an international medical conference, the attraction is immediate, powerful and mutual. But surely, thinks Robin, he has met Georgiana somewhere before. United by common professional interests, a shared love of culture and an irresistible emotional and physical attraction, Robin and Georgiana become lovers. As they are swept away in an increasingly powerful tide of love and desire, their illicit life together seems almost too good to be true. But then a chance meeting opens up a secret from the past, and reveals to Robin why he feels so drawn to Georgiana, and she to him. And this is not the last shock that fate has in store for them both…

The Passion Gene is a fascinating first novel from the pen of Louis de Savy, a former hospital consultant.

The Other Round Table

The Other Round Table

To most people Round Table means only one thing – King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. However, for many other people it has a separate, more important meaning – being part of what is in the opinion of the author the greatest club ever formed for young men, The National Association of Round Tables or as the members know it, RTBI (Round Table Britain and Ireland). For these people, “The Other Round Table” is membership of RTBI. This book is a celebration of the author’s 14 years he had as a member of Round Table and incorporates a potted history of Mendip Round Table, the club where he spent the majority of his Table life and which sadly folded in 2001. Thus it is also a historical document as to what life was like being a member of Mendip Table during its existence from 1959 to 2001

The Messenger

The Messenger

Oswald S. Early was a First World War wireless operator with the 1/9th Battalion Territorial Force of the Royal Hampshire Regiment, serving from 1916 to 1919 in India, Iraq and Afghanistan. Throughout his adventures he kept a diary, which gives us a vivid picture of the trials, the tedium, the hardships and occasional horrors of the campaign and the challenges and dangers he faced. “The Arabs… are dangerous fellows to tackle when caught. The best way is to shoot them first and then make enquiries.” “A few tribesmen tried to get into camp last night, but some Gurkhas were waiting for them… early this morning they came into camp carrying the heads of the tribesmen under their arms. They put one on a pole and stuck a cigarette into its mouth.”

The Man God Made

The Man God Made

When God breathed the breath of life into us, he made us perfect. The Man God Made was strong, creative and noble, devoted to the path of God. But ever since Adam succumbed to temptation in the Garden of Eden, many of us have fallen below that standard set by God. Pastor Oghenethoja Umuteme of the Royal Diamonds International Church in Nigeria tells us in his new book how we can renounce evil and regain that path set for us by God, becoming once again the men and women God intended us to be. The book enables us to understand the qualities expected of those who would live life to its fullest and reach Heaven. These qualities will enable them to follow Christ’s ways and minister His word to the world, wherever they may be. The Man God Made has been written to bring out the best in all.
