A filmmaker moonlighting as a top-secret courier must thwart a deadly plot involving kidnappers and Nazi gold in this break-neck thriller. Pero Baltazar’s work as a film producer takes him all over the world. It’s the sort of career that has made him an asset to the US State Department as a part-time courier. His last assignment from them, however, proved almost fatal and required some time off. Finally rested and ready to get back to work, Pero takes a job on a spy film shooting in Berlin. Unfortunately, someone at the CIA has a mysterious package waiting for him upon his arrival. With little details or instructions to go off of, Pero finds himself thrust into a deadly game. Soon the director and the star of his film are kidnapped, and Pero discovers the secret behind the package’s contents. Enlisting the help of his friend, Mbuno, an expert tracker and safari guide, Pero hopes he can stay ahead of his enemies, because if he gets killed, millions more could die . . . Praise for The Berlin Package “An explosive radioactive thriller written with intelligence. . . . The reluctant spy motif works grandly. . . . An extremely thoughtful and terrifying exposure of the dangers inherent in the nuclear world.” —Ron Lealos, author of Pashtun and Don’t Mean Nuthin’

A film producer, a handsome star, and an African safari guide must race to protect themselves and the world from a terrorist nuclear trade. Film producer Pero Baltazar thought he was taking a Berlin filming assignment. He needed the work, needed to get back in the saddle after fighting off a life-threatening experience in East Africa—al-Shabaab had attacked his crew, intent on a much larger terrorist attack. Suddenly he finds himself under orders from his part-time employers at the State Department and the CIA when he is handed a mysterious package. It’s an assignment he doesn’t want. The problem is, it’s a job contracted by mysterious patrons who are prepared to kill him if he doesn’t deliver. Pero—now in far too deep—turns to friends, old and new, to help him unravel the mystery of the package, uncover connections to Nazi concentration camp gold recently sold by the US Treasury, and thwart the ex–Stasi chief, now head of a powerful banking group. In this fast-paced sequel to Murder on Safari, Pero calls on Mbuno, his friend and East African safari guide, to anticipate the moves of his enemies as if they were animals—dangerous vermin—who have kidnapped both the film star and director. Mbuno’s tracking skills may keep them from getting killed—provided Pero can rope in more help and keep the CIA at bay. Exhilarating and expertly crafted, The Berlin Package is a gripping, page-turning thriller set in post–German reunification Europe.

This book was written with one purpose in mind: to improve your bass playing skill in 24 clear lessons. Each of the exercises featured in (title is based on solid music theory concepts and structured academic approaches. The book contains etudes grounded in common (and not so common) chord tonalities written in melodic form. They are all geared to teach when to play the right notes at the right time. Each lesson builds on the previous one to introduce increasingly more sophisticated concepts and techniques. This approach enables the bass student to polish his/her reading skills and technique simultaneously. A focus on reading requires players to find more accurate left-hand positions and fingerings to play the notes as they are written. Reading brings together mind, body, and instrument, thus resulting in better playing. By studying this book, the bass student will find that better technique will be coupled with greater expressiveness. We all seek the ability to play with freedom and artistry. The better you can play, the better you will express the art that is within you.

As John Harrington grew older, he sat down with his daughter to share the story of his life. What she learned made her rethink the man who had raised her. The tale begins with his childhood in the Australian outback, and follows his immigration to English and enrollment in the British forces in 1914. After being injured in France, he is hired by the British Foreign office, which sends him to Berlin as a passport clerk in the 1930s. For the next ten years, he lives in a world of intrigue and espionage as the Nazi regime grows stronger around him. This is a compelling inside look at the rise of Nazism in the 1930s, from subtle changes in the people’s everyday behaviour to Hitler’s sinister consolidation of power. It is an eyewitness account of an era we all read about, but rarely experience with such a personal touch. Having promised not to release the story until after his passing, Darlene Harrington now shares her father’s remarkable life, which will change the way we understand the Second World War and the impact one person can have on history.
