When the Smoke Cleared by Bill Powers | Book Review ~ $25 Starbucks Gift Ca..

WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARED (A Murder Mystery in Malden) by Bill Powers follows an extraordinary murder investigation from the crime scene thru to the arrest & into the courtroom.

There is no greater distinction or responsibility for a law enforcement officer than to be selected to investigate homicides. The same is true for a prosecutor. It is analogous to a call up to the big leagues where the curveballs or slapshots are frequent and more challenging, the lights are brighter, the audience larger and louder, and the scrutiny and demand for perfection can at times be a bit overwhelming.

Spotlight: Avoiding Swindlers by Al Rosen | Non-Fiction ~ Business & Investing ~ $10 Gift Card Avoiding Swindlers

Spotlight: Avoiding Swindlers by Al Rosen | Non-Fiction ~ Business & I..

Avoiding Swindlers deals with actual situations that resulted in investors losing multi-millions of dollars to financial tricksters. Emphasis is placed on learning how to detect early warning signs. Financial exposure can be minimized before situations deteriorate into bankruptcies.

However, individual investors have to take specific actions after doing some homework. Otherwise, the alternative is to lose money by listening to “hot tips,” often involving publicly traded securities.

The book attempts to minimize technical language. Stress is placed upon encouraging investors to look for specific warning signs before opening their purses and wallets to the growing group of tricksters.
