Luxury villas on hot white sand, views for miles over turquoise water. Flawless hostess Penny gathers guests to an island for her husband's birthday celebrations. But she soon regrets inviting self-obsessed Eloise...When a child vanishes on the night of the party, their perfect island weekend is ripped apart. Even paradise harbours murky secrets... Has he been taken? Has he drowned? In the panic to find any trace, Penny casts about for someone to blame--even if that person is her own daughter, Rosie. Even clear waters descend to pitch black... But it's not the first time Rosie's been attacked by her mother. And it's not the first time she's turned to Eloise for support. As the sun beats down and dark secrets rise to the surface, can they find the missing child before it's too late--or will this sudden disappearance endanger them all? ...and someone among them knows the whole shocking truth.

Not knowing what she's filmed, Emma's daughter Kiki innocently uploads footage of Ariella's brutal death. Emma fears the worst--the killer will know what she and Kiki have seen. Their safe suburban lives no longer exist. Her husband knows more than he's revealing. Emma's husband Charles forces the family to leave their perfect life and escape on their yacht. His dangerous plan to flee means Emma is trapped and desperately seeking answers. What are they hiding from? What did Ariella have to confess? And who else knows Emma's own secret? Her secret isn't safe and neither is she.

Weaving together lessons and original stories from the world's top contributors to human rights and social involvement, this book leaders readers to a greater understanding of how we grow and develop as human beings by helping others. Cutting-edge research on the nature of personal and social change illuminates the Me to we philosophy. We can all build a better life - and an ideal world - by reaching out to others. Me to We is a manifesto and a manual. It includes tales to inspire, studies and statistics to persuade, and practical advice to motivate and guide. Craig and Marc Kielburger have written from their own experiences as advocates and global social leaders, as have supporters suc as Oprah Winfrey, Richard Gere, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and Dr. Jane Goodall. These dynamic stories teach us how to live our lives as socially conscious and responsible people, engage in daily acts of kindness, building meaningful relationships through community, and focus on the impact of "we" decision making. Both modern in its fresh way of looking at the world and traditional in its return to the simplest, purest, and most basic impulse of humanity, Me to We represents a vibrant shift, a remaking from the inside out, and a new definition of success, happiness, and community. --Back cover

Legastheniker und Versager. Mit 16 Jahren bricht Richard Branson 1968 die Schule ab. Deren weitsichtige Einschätzung seiner Zukunft: Knacki oder Millionär. Nicht einmal drei Jahre später eröffnet er in der Oxford Street den ersten Virgin-Plattenladen und landet kurz darauf mit einem Plattenvertrag den ersten Millionen-Deal. Damit legt Branson den Grundstein seiner Virgin-Group, die heute mehr als 20 Milliarden Dollar Umsatz erwirtschaftet und mehr als 50 000 Menschen beschäftigt. In seinem Millionen-Bestseller Losing my Virginity spannt das umtriebige Multitalent den Bogen von 1950 bis an die Schwelle des Millenniums. Es ist die beeindruckende Autobiografie eines Abenteurers und Paradiesvogels, für den Aufgeben nur eines ist: keine Option

Am Silvesterabend 1998, an der Schwelle zum neuen Millennium, beginnt nicht nur der zweite Teil seiner Biografie sondern auch Bransons zweites Leben – zwei Jahrzehnte, voll mit noch mehr Höhen und Tiefen, Rekorden und Grenzüberschreitungen. Doch es sind nicht nur die Höhenflüge, an denen Branson den Leser teilhaben lässt. „Wenn jemand sein Leben als eine einzige lange Erfolgsgeschichte beschreibt, wird das Buch niemand gern lesen. Außerdem ist derjenige wahrscheinlich ein Lügner.“ Und so gewährt Branson dem Leser auch einen intimen Einblick in sein Leben jenseits von Weltrekorden und Weltraumflügen, ein Leben, das nicht frei war von Misserfolgen, Rückschlägen und Krisen – doch aus jeder ist er nur noch stärker hervorgegangen. Ein einmaliger Blick auf das Leben eines außergewöhnlichen Menschen, dem schon sein damaliger Schuldirektor prophezeite: „Entweder du landest im Gefängnis oder wirst Millionär“. Mit Finding My Virginity folgt 20 Jahre nach Erscheinen des Millionen-Bestsellers Losing My Virginity der zweite Teil der Autobiografie von Ausnahme-Unternehmer Sir Richard Branson. Mit 150 exklusiven und vielen, noch nie veröffentlichten Bildern aus Richard Bransons persönlichem Fotoalbum.
