The Billion Dollar Project


Book Description

Starfleet Security Express moves millions in cash around Jamaica, a fact that hasn't gone unnoticed by Neville. He's got a plan to acquire some of that wealth for himself-a plan that requires the reluctant help of his good friend Karl. Together with a motley crew of gang members, Karl and Neville plan a daring heist on Starfleet-a heist that, to Karl's surprise, seems to succeed. Neville's plans don't usually go so smoothly. There's a cost to their victory, however: three innocent lives. It's a price one member of the heist proves unwilling to pay. Pursued by the police, Karl and Neville must rely on each other to remain free men. Unfortunately, one of the two friends thinks evading arrest would be easier to accomplish on his own, even if it means removing the other from the equation-for good. A compelling crime caper set in the colorful arena of the Jamaican underworld, The Billion Dollar Project brings suspense, drama, and a touch of lighthearted humor to a world of high-stakes theft, corrupt police, warring gangs, and one treacherous friend. Most men have their price. In Neville and Karl's case, that price is a billion dollars.

The Billion Dollar BET


Book Description

Praise for The Billion Dollar BET "In a gripping narrative that is both inspirational and cautionary, Brett Pulley tells us how Robert Johnson built Black Entertainment Television into a billion-dollar media empire. In a remarkable feat of reporting, without Johnson's cooperation, Pulley shows what it really takes to get ahead in America today, and in doing so provides as valuable a cultural as business history." --James B. Stewart Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and bestselling author of DisneyWar, Den of Thieves, and Heart of a Soldier "Like or dislike? Agree or disagree? Bob Johnson's richly varied and fascinating life presses you against the window that Brett Pulley opens widely." --Bernard Shaw retired CNN anchor "Through his BET network, Bob Johnson reached the pinnacle of capitalism, the billionaire boys club, in the spirit of legions of driven, American moguls . . . Veteran business journalist Brett Pulley peels back the layers of this fascinating and complex entrepreneur." --Teri Agins Senior Special Writer, the Wall Street Journal, and author of The End of Fashion: How Marketing Changed the Clothing Business Forever
