Circle of Greed
by Patrick Dillon and Carl M.Cannon
"John Grisham would have to struggle to invent a character as brilliant and unethical as Bill Lerach. It is a credit to the reporting talents of Patrick Dillon and Carl M. Cannon that, in Circle of Greed, they capture the felon-lawyer in all his charm and ruthlessness. Along the way they show how the plaintiffs' bar has transformed the process of class actions into big business."—Wall Street Journal
For more than two decades, Bill Lerach threatened, shook down, and sued top Fortune 500 companies, including Disney, Apple, Time Warner, and—most famously—Enron. Now, the man who brought corporate moguls to their knees has fallen prey to the same corrupt impulses of his enemies, and is paying the price by serving time in federal prison.

The Lunatic Express
by Carl Hoffman
"Opened my eyes to the off-the-grid travel ... This book is fabulous."—Keith Bellows, editor in chief of National Geographic Traveler
Indonesian Ferry Sinks. Peruvian Bus Plunges Off Cliff. African Train Attacked by Mobs. Whenever he picked up the newspaper, journalist Carl Hoffman noticed those short news bulletins, which seemed about as far from the idea of tourism, travel as the pursuit of pleasure, as it was possible to get. Off he went, spending six months on the world's most dangerous conveyances, in some of the most teeming cities: from Havana to Bogotá on the perilous Cuban Airways, Lima to the Amazon on crowded night buses, across Indonesia and Bangladesh by overcrowded ferries that kill 1,000 passengers a year, and scariest of all, Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., by Greyhound.
