You know him as the founder of Microsoft; the philanthropic, kind-hearted billionaire who has donated endless funds to good causes around the world. But there’s another side to Bill Gates.
In this fearless, groundbreaking investigation, Tim Schwab offers readers a counter-narrative, one where Gates has used his monopolistic approach in business to amass a stunning level of control over public policy, scientific research and the news media. Whether he is pushing new educational standards in America, health reforms in India or industrialized agriculture in Africa, Gates’s unbridled social experimentation has shown itself to be not only undemocratic, but also ineffective.
All of which begs the question: why should the super rich be able to transform their wealth into political power, and just how far can they go?
Impossible puzzles, shocking twists and addictive romance combine in this unmissable new chapter in the #1 bestselling INHERITANCE GAMES saga - guaranteed to keep you hooked until the very last page . . .
A RUTHLESS GAME. SEVEN MYSTERY PLAYERS. LOVE AND LIVES ARE AT STAKE.
Welcome to the Grandest Game, a life-changing competition run by billionaire Avery Grambs and the four infamous Hawthorne brothers.
LYRA tells herself she’s only playing for the money – not for answers about her father’s death and certainly not to confront the infuriating, enigmatic GRAYSON Hawthorne. Facing off against Lyra are GIGI, Grayson’s half-sister, who is determined to prove herself, and ROHAN, who has few morals, a dangerous skill set, and no future – unless he wins the game.
Swept away to a luxury private island, Lyra, Gigi and Rohan must do whatever it takes to best one another, a cast of formidable rivals, and a game that only the sharpest minds can conquer. As sparks fly and the challenges push the players to their limits, it becomes clear that everyone has secrets, ad the past won’t stay buried forever.
WHO HAS WHAT IT TAKES TO WIN?
Lady Sings the Blues is the inimitable autobiography of one of the greatest icons of the twentieth century. Born to a single mother in 1915 Baltimore, Billie Holiday had her first run-in with the law at aged 13. But Billie Holiday is no victim. Her memoir tells the story of her life spent in jazz, smoky Harlem clubs and packed-out concert halls, her love affairs, her wildly creative friends, her struggles with addiction and her adventures in love. Billie Holiday is a wise and aphoristic guide to the story of her unforgettable life.
