Did you miss me? / by Money-Coutts, Sophia,author.;
You never forget the one that got away ... Nell Mason is extremely happy with her life -- or at least, that's what she tells herself. She's lucky to have a high-powered job as a lawyer, even if it does come with an eccentric set of billionaire divorce clients. And she's absolutely fine living with her sweet, if slightly dull, boyfriend Gus in their London flat, where they have very sensible sex once (OK, sometimes twice) a week. She's definitely not stuck in a rut. But when Nell bumps into childhood friend and first love Arthur Drummond who broke her heart fifteen years ago, she's more than a little shaken. The seemingly perfect life she's worked so hard for starts to feel, well, less perfect.

The world for sale : money, power, and the traders who barter the earth's resources / by Blas, Javier(Journalist),author.; Farchy, Jack,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Two journalists expose one of the least scrutinized corners of the world economy: the workings of the billionaire commodity traders who buy, hoard and sell the earth's resources. It is the story of how a handful of swashbuckling businessmen became indispensable cogs in global markets, enabling an enormous expansion in international trade, and connecting resource-rich countries--no matter how corrupt or war-torn--with the world's financial centers. It is also the story of how some traders acquired political power, under the noses of western regulators and politicians, helping Saddam Hussein to sell his oil, fueling the Libyan rebel army during the Arab Spring, and funneling cash to Vladimir Putin's Kremlin in spite of western sanctions. A tour through the wildest frontiers of the global economy, as well as a guide to how capitalism really works.
