Dr. Louisa North knows time is against her as she tries to create a “miracle” medical treatment for a disease with no known cure, until she creates a sample so powerful that the wrong people want to use it as a chemical weapon. At first, Six is unwilling to accept Louisa as his client.

And now that an enemy is on Louisa’s trail, Six will do whatever it takes to protect her—or die trying.

Zen Under Fire by Marianne Elliott Pdf

I am about to be left in charge of the office. I'm not sure I'm ready for the responsibility, so I double-check with my boss. He reassures me. "You'll be fine, Marianne. As long as no one kills Amanullah Khan, you'll be fine." By midday, Amanullah Khan is dead. Marianne Elliot is a human rights lawyer stationed with the UN in Herat when the unthinkable happens: a tribal leader is assassinated, and she must defuse the situation before it leads to widespread bloodshed. And this is just the beginning of the story in Afghanistan. Zen Under Fire lays bare the struggles of a war-torn region from a uniquely personal perspective. Honest and vivid, her story reveals the shattering effect that the high-stress environment has on Marianne and her relationships. Redefining the question of what it really means to do good in a country that is under siege from within, Zen Under Fire is an honest, moving, at times terrifying true story of a women's experience at peacekeeping in one of the most dangerous places on Earth. "This is an amazing book, kind of like if Eat, Pray, Love had happened in Afghanistan and the stakes were life and death."—Susan Piver, New York Times bestselling author of Wisdom of a Broken Heart

Love under Fire by Dorothea Odom Pdf

This book is based on true events which occurred during the mid- to late 1980s in Colombia when terrorist elements were very active in their campaigns to derail U.S. and Colombian Government efforts to destroy the coca crop and, thus, stem drug exports from Colombia to points northward. Readers will get an inside look at how the U.S. Embassy functioned as well as profiles of certain key characters. The central theme is that true love comes under fire but ultimately triumphs although there is no “happily ever after” ending. The basic idea is that one’s trust must be placed in God, not in circumstances which can and do change from time to time.
