From the central bank of El Salvador to a tantalum mine in Rwanda, the Acropolis Museum in Athens to the biggest freeport on the planet in Dubai, enter a world ruled by ones and zeroes and inhabited by people who don't believe in trust.
Nathan Pike is one of those people. To some he's a digital Robin Hood. To others he's nothing but an amoral hacker. A codebreaking and encryption expert, he sells his skills to whoever can pay him what he wants or give him something he needs.
And when he's sprung from a Cambodian prison by a woman calling herself Melody Jones, he's made an offer the likes of which he's never seen before.

Jak w najlepszy sposób wykorzystać naszego psychopatę wewnętrznego, by odnosić sukcesy i wycisnąć z życia jak najwięcej?Dobry psychopata kto to taki? Jakim cudem myślenie jego kategoriami może ci pomóc w osiągnięciu pełni możliwości?Doktor nauk psychologicznych Kevin Dutton spędził całe życie akademickie na przyglądaniu się psychopatom. W trakcie jednego z projektów badawczych poznał Andy'ego McNaba, legendę brytyjskich komandosów z SAS. Zaskoczyło go pewne odkrycie związane z tym człowiekiem: McNab niewątpliwie jest psychopatą, co ważne natomiast, jest on dobrym psychopatą. W przeciwieństwie do złych psychopatów jest w stanie podkręcać lub tonować niektóre własne cechy osobowości takie jak bezwzględność, odwaga, stanowczość, wyrzuty sumienia czy empatia aby w bardzo różnych okolicznościach wydobyć z siebie (oraz z innych) optimum możliwości. Wyjątkowe połączenie barwnych, wariackich doświadczeń jednego z akademicką znajomością tematu drugiego pozwala im na zgłębianie odmiennych ścieżek, jakimi podążają umysły dobrych psychopatów. Autorzy podpowiadają, w jaki sposób może się to okazać dla nas przydatne w życiu codziennym.
Afghanistan, 2009. A Rifle section is halfway through their six-month tour of duty in Helmand Province. Sixteen men from their Battalion have already been killed. Forty-seven others have been wounded and flown back home.
The last three months have been tough and it shows. Their kit is in a bad way. They are in a bad way. Young men with tans, scruffy beards, peeling noses and lips burnt raw by the Afghan sun. Despite the hardships they are enjoying their time out here learning how to fight the Taleban. The lads are on their way to becoming the best soldiers in the Army.
Last Night Another Soldier... is the story of four of the young men in this Rifle section, partly told from the point of view of eighteen-year-old squaddie, David 'Briggsy' Briggs.
This is the call he is always ready for. They’ve had word of a planned attack. That’s why he’s back here, opposite some suit who’s trying to tell him what he needs to do. But he knows exactly what’s required.
Four men. Plain clothes. Eyes peeled.
Three targets. Two cases. One car.
Gibraltar isn’t an ideal location. Too many people. Too many blind alleys. But then again, he’s not the terrorist. Who knows what goes through their minds? Well, he will soon. If everything goes to plan.
