The word here in Florida ever since I moved here is that "Florida doesn't have earthquakes." Well, one of about 4.3 on the Richter Scale occurred a few years ago. Quite a few years ago, I live close enough to the New Madrid fault that I had some real concerns. Only place that I've ever lived in the deep South where I actually added earthquake insurance to my home policy. |

I am not going to be able to do a proper post of this, but the Whispersync deal on this book is only $2.98. And the book has very high ratings. However, the book is not particularly long. And it is only Book 1, so how many more WS deals would you have to buy to have the whole series? Anyway, someone might be interested. |

Very Highly Rated Book on Russian Prisons--Tatoos and Organized Crime Gangs. FREE.
I know, it's on a strange topic. And, frankly, it's not something that interests me one scintilla. But, it's got a 4.50 average rating at GoodReads, from an amble number of ratings (30 of 'em) (at Amazon, a 5.00 rating, but from only 3 reviews). And it's free--having dropped 100% in price from the digital list price of $4.99. And at 346 pages, it's not just a pamphlet. So, I ask you, what am I supposed to do? I can't ignore it. It's got to get posted.
And, if you ever get thrown in a Russian prison, you'll know your way around a little bit to begin with. Help you get acclimated to your new home, and all of that. Or, at least, if you like tattoos, you might find something inspiring in the book for the next tattoo that you get. I can't find out anything about the publisher, "One's Own Publishing, Ltd." and it seems like an indie or self-pub, so it's got to go on this thread instead of the Non-fiction one. Thief in Law: A guide to Russian prison tattoos and Russian-speaking organised crime gangs. By M.G. Bullen. Ratings given above. Print list price N/A; digital list price $4.99; Kindle price now $0.00. One's Own Publishing House, Ltd., publisher. 346 pages. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01E2WV6C2/. Book Description "Giving a thorough overview of a fascinating culture, Thief in Law is a fine encyclopedia of Russian prison tattoos as well as a guide to the country's prison history and culture." The Daily Telegraph. 1st Nov, 2016. Thief in Law: A guide to Russian prison tattoos and Russian–speaking organised crime gangs is the first comprehensive guide in English to the history, actions and tattoos worn by the Russian Mafia. Through the 346 fascinating pages of this book, you will discover everything you could ever want to know about the world's number 1 criminal organisation. This book contains over 100 never before seen photos from Russian and European police archives and also includes over 50 original drawings by the artist A. Malkovskaya. With each picture comes detailed information about the tattoos created in Russia's notorious prisons. Thief in Law contains exclusive information and images previously only available to law enforcement officers. Based on a training package given to British, American and European police forces and written by a former police officer turned journalist. Thief in Law is a remarkable insight into the activities of the world’s most powerful criminal gang. |

Mystery. This doesn't belong here, but it appears to be self-published.
