Return to solitude : more Desolation Sound adventures with the Cougar Lady, Russell the Hermit, the Spaghetti Bandit and others / by Lawrence, Grant,1971-author.;
"The long-awaited sequel to Grant Lawrence's bestselling memoir Adventures in Solitude. It's been over a decade since renowned broadcaster and indie rock musician Grant Lawrence launched his writing career with the award-winning Adventures in Solitude, yet some things never change--including the winding Sunshine Coast Highway, close calls at the BC Ferries ticket office and carsick children. But this time, Lawrence returns as a husband and father, not as the vomiting and nerdy kid dragged along by his athletic and unflappable parents. In his inimitable, high-voltage style Lawrence interweaves the rich and harrowing history of the Desolation Sound area with his own experiences of life on the coast. This lively book recounts the life and times of the legendary Cougar Lady, tracks a phantom-like squatter known as the Spaghetti Bandit, and details the bizarre exit and even more bizarre death of Bernard the German. Here too are many of the beloved personalities introduced in Lawrence's first book, including hippie recluse Russell the Hermit, plus the continued voyages of Big Buck$, the decrepit family boat, and the incredible return of large ocean mammals to Desolation Sound. From a hilarious, heartfelt and slightly wiser voice comes a momentous story of time, family and place whirling around one increasingly ramshackle cabin on a beautiful and not-at-all-desolate coast."--

Read by January LaVoy."When investigative journalist Gina Kane receives an email from a 'CRyan' describing her 'terrible experience' while working at REL, a high-profile television news network, including the comment 'and I'm not the only one,' Gina knows she has to pursue the story. But when Ryan goes silent, Gina is shocked to discover the young woman has died tragically in a jet ski accident while on holiday. Meanwhile, REL counsel Michael Carter finds himself in a tricky spot. Several female employees have come forward with allegations of sexual misconduct. Carter approaches the CEO, offering to persuade the victims to accept settlements in exchange for their silence. It's a risky endeavor, but it could well make him rich. As more allegations emerge and the company's IPO draws near, Carter's attempts to keep the story from making headlines are matched only by Gina Kane's determination to uncover the truth. Was Ryan's death truly an accident? And when another accuser turns up dead, Gina realizes someone--or some people--will go to depraved lengths to keep the story from seeing the light"--

The fall : the end of Fox News and the Murdoch Dynasty / by Wolff, Michael,1953-author.;
In The Fall, Wolff returns to one of the foundational subjects of his journalistic career, Rupert Murdoch, to tell the story of the collapse of a media dynasty. He writes of the effects of Foxs all-powerful controlling shareholders age (92), the desperate rivalries and contradictory desires of his children regarding the future of the network (the flesh and blood version of HBOs Succession ), the irresolvable contradiction of Rupert Murdochs antipathy to Trump, and to Foxs own stars, the full backstory of Tucker Carlsons ouster and of Foxs Chief Legal Officer, Viet Dinhs recent ouster, and reveals hidden details of the Dominion Settlement. Foxs power and its business are unsustainable, says Wolff, and the end of the network is not only imminent, but inevitable as we accelerate into the 2024 presidential election and a looming future without the patriarch.
