    A major Manchester gangster called Tommy McKinlay is on remand and it looks as though he will be going away for a long stretch. But he knows something that DCI Miller can't possibly afford to be made public. Something about the infamous "Pop" case from three years earlier. Something that could see Miller behind bars, for a very long time. It was supposed to be a very closely guarded secret. As far as Miller was aware, only a handful of people knew the details which are now threatening to destroy his career, and his life. What does McKinlay want in return for his silence? More importantly, can McKinlay be trusted to keep this explosive information silent if Miller agrees to his demands? Twisting the Truth is a heart-stopping DCI Miller page-turner which promises to keep readers guessing until the very last page. Can Miller get out of this? Or is Tommy McKinlay going to be Miller's puppet-master for the rest of time? Will Miller manage to keep his team together as the gravity of the situation rocks his officers who also face disgrace and prison time if McKinlay's information ever became public? This is a very deep hole that Manchester's best known detective has found himself in, one which threatens everything. Twisting the Truth will be released on May 18th.

    This ebook cuts out all the BS seen in larger books and gets right to the point. By telling you the story of multiple real estate purchases I have made you will be able to put these practices to use to find properties in your area and close deals. If you want to know how to find and buy houses at rock bottom prices, this book is a good place to start. To make sure you do not waste your money, let me tell you more about to expect. I am a normal, average guy that has purchased all but one house with cash, spending as little as $5,000 and no more than $15,000. My most expensive house was purchased through owner financing. I prefer to buy cheap and use cash so that I do not go into debt. My first house cost $5,000. When I started the process, I only had about $1,000 but I sold some junk and came up with the rest of the money. I originally got into real estate investing because I wanted rental property. While that is still part of my investing, I've moved into buying and selling as well. Another aspect that I recently dipped my toes into is wholesaling, just completing my first deal. My long-term goal is to buy, renovate and sell houses for big profit and wholesale houses due to its low cost and fast turnover. Along the way, I will keep houses if they are great for rentals. If this sounds like you or something you want to work towards, that is the perspective that these books will be written from. Most of my books are short and to the point, I do this because I myself am not a huge reader due to time so I don't want to put you all through having to read a novel just to get some simple points. What it comes down to is that most things are easier than people think. I hope in telling my own story that you are able to push forward and make your first steps into real estate investing a reality. I'll be writing more on topics like this in the future, be sure to follow my Youtube channels, website and other social media for updates. "The Homestead Craftsman" & "Homemade Home" on Youtube.

     Today Lipton means tea. However, in his time Sir Thomas Lipton was known for much more. Raised in desperate poverty, he became rich beyond his wildest dreams. He built a global empire of markets, factories, plantations, and stockyards. And his colorful pursuit of the America's Cup trophy made him a beloved figure on both sides of the Atlantic. In A Full Cup, Michael D'Antonio tells the tale of this larger- than-life figure. Beginning with a journey across the United States just after the Civil War, Thomas J. Lipton developed the ambition and learned the business techniques that helped him create the first chain of grocery stores. Wealthy before the age of thirty, he set his sights on the tea trade, and soon his name became synonymous with his product. Lipton's great business success makes for a compelling story of innovation and achievement. Moreover, though, Lipton's most intriguing creation was a public persona-one of the first formed with the help of a modern mass media-that appealed to millions of ordinary people, as well as the elites in America and Europe. Concocting simple stunts like elephant parades, Lipton mastered the new art of obtaining free publicity. With shameless self-promotion, he became one of the world's most eligible bachelors, a patron of the poor, and ultimately reached legendary heights when he revived the competition for the America's Cup. With one losing attempt after another, the gallant Lipton, who didn't even know how to sail his own yacht, became ever more popular. D'Antonio's biography brings to vivid life this remarkable figure.
