Book Description
This book addresses the issue of refugee protection in Europe, drawing on the approaches taken to the crisis in former Yugoslavia to find lessons for future comprehensive policies. Suitable for academics, students and policy-makers, this book gives a comprehensive overview of the twentieth-century history of refugee protection, the relationship between protection and human rights, and European integration in the asylum and immigration policy area. The focus of the book is the development of comprehensive approaches to forced migration and particularly the emergence of temporary protection mechanisms in the European context. Four specific national measures are analyzed and a model for future EU policy is advanced. This model satisfies specified practical and theoretical requirements governing the role of protection in international relations and relations between individuals and states.

Book Description
The first volume of this two part series is concerned with the fundamental aspects of relativistic quantum theory, outlining the enormous progress made in the last twenty years in this field. The aim was to create a book such that researchers who become interested in this exciting new field find it useful as a textbook, and do not have to rely on a rather large number of specialized papers published in this area.
· No title is currently available that deals with new developments in relativistic quantum electronic structure theory
· Interesting and relevant to graduate students in chemistry and physics as well as to all researchers in the field of quantum chemistry
· As treatment of heavy elements becomes more important, there will be a constant demand for this title

When a da Vinci masterwork is stolen from a private collector, Puller Monk is assigned to the case. Monk's private demons have worked for him before. No ordinary agent, he plays by his own rules. He's just what the FBI needs. Because what they're looking for is no ordinary thief...A young chameleon assassin, she was bred to kill. An American sleeper spy, she answers to many names, adapts to each identity, and is trained in every deadly art. Only a select few know who she really is. Only they know her ultimate objective: take out Puller Monk.A killing game begins between the agent and the sleeper. Both are the hunted. Both are the hunter. But when Monk finds himself seduced by his own past he also finds himself doomed by the dark side that was once his only salvation.
Customer Reviews:
Highly Professional Job of Work.......2007-03-12
"Sleeper" is the second novel, and second spy thriller by Gene Riehl, a former FBI agent involved in foreign counterintelligence and espionage, and he certainly makes good use of his background here. It concerns one Puller Monk, an FBI agent with personal problems, and one Sung Kim, an American-born, Korean-trained spy/assassin on a collision course, involving the highest and the mightiest in the land, as well as some of the most famous paintings. It's a highly professional, commercial job of work.
It's an exciting book if you don't look too closely at the two-dimensional characters, opens hard, moves fast, and piles up what appears to be three corpses by page 10; I've been known to tell friends that if a mystery doesn't open on at least one corpse by page 10, I won't read further. The plot's a mite unlikely-- aren't they all-- but Riehl treats it realistically. He tells the reader several more times than he ever needed to that his characters shampoo their hair and brush their teeth, and he leans on that same-old, same-old plot device of the agent unwillingly dragged into the action. But he's very strong on his weaponry and tradecraft. Also on the ambiance of our nation's capital, Washington, D.C. and its surrounding areas; in fact I think you could use this book instead of a map.
He's come up with an interesting plot device, too. Sung Kim was born Samantha WIlliamson in an American hospital, kidnapped by the North Koreans as an infant, to be raised according to their design. The North Koreans are, in fact, known to have kidnapped Japanese,and to be still hanging on to American Korean War veterans, for whatever their reasons. Of course, we can all readily see that this means life has been really unfair to this blond assassin, but we do have a former president who once noted that life can be unfair.
With a word of warning to the sensitive: this book contains one each of totally gratuitous sex, and torture scenes. But it's a good quick read. You could maybe polish it off in a sitting.
Fun, fresh and easy reading.......2006-03-21
I read this book without reading the first one, I just happened to pick it up at a book store and didn't know there was a first book (I'm a sucker for spy novels).
The book is fresh, easy to read, paced well and fun but no real surprises. The characters are developed enough for you to care about but not too much (again, I never read the first installment). For example I never cared about the hero's girlfriend, but found the villainess of the story much more fascinating. Actually I would wish Mr. Riehl could write a book about the villainess and her training / recruitment.
My predecessors mentioned the FBI procedures, I don't know if all they are accurate or not and would not even dare to guess, but they seem logical and make sense.
This book is the best sleeper success.......2005-08-30
I thoroughly enjoyed the characters, the story line and the real, true to life portrayals of the FBI innerworkings. A great and exciting read. I look forward to the next Puller Monk novel.
Gene Riehl ROCKS.......2005-06-05
Gene Riehl's continuing drama of Puller Monk is awesome! There is no disappointment from QUANTICO RULES, as a matter of fact, SLEEPER is bigger and better. The character development and storyline are very compelling. This book leaves you wanting another sequel. Congratulations, Gene, on another great piece of work!
fine espionage thriller .......2005-02-27
In 1992 Paris, sixteen years old Samantha Williamson of Asian descent watches the Americans kill her adopted parents. The North Korans "adopt" her following the tragedy insisting she is one of them and renaming her Sung Kim. They train and brainwash her to be the ultimate spy-terrorist causing havoc in the United States.
NSA Director Philip Carter learns that an Asiatic woman stole the Madonna, valued at $15 million, from the home of Lyman Davidson. Philip believes the deadly Sung Kim is the culprit and fears she is escalating her campaign to devastate those in power. He assigns FBI Special Agent Puller Monk to stop her. Besides a gambling problem, Puller believes he inherited from his recently deceased father, Alzheimer's and that he is already in the second perhaps third phase. Now the games begin.
SLEEPER is an intriguing sequel in which the fascinating character is the villainess though Sung Kim is more comic book than flesh and blood. Puller in spite of his concerns and his addiction lacks fullness (unless you read his previous appearance in QUANTICO RULES). Still although the key combatants seem two dimensional, espionage thriller fans will appreciate their spy vs. spy war in which both will do anything necessary to triumph.

Book Description
Explains to us things about professional arm wrestling- the techniques use to psych-out opponents, the sleazy settings for the contests themselves, the broken wrists, the compound fractures--we could never find out on our own without spending lots of time at interstate truck stops and the back rooms of unsavory beer joints along the back roads.
Customer Reviews:
Fun quick read.......2004-09-02
Definitely an entertaining fast read, quickly immersing you in both the characters and the arm wrestling subculture. It made me want to read more on the subject,and more by the author.
This novel will kick your butt, and you'll like it.......1998-12-07
Combine the Southern gothic weirdness of Sling Blade with the lunatic fringe athletes of ESPN's X-Games and the sociological commentary of Carl Hiaasen and you'll have an idea of where to start with Pullers, a fine first novel from Memphis writer Tom Graves. Pullers takes on the heretofore untouched literary territory of arm-wrestling, and traces the arc of a crew of appealingly weird characters seeking the title of Professional Arm Wrestling Association World Champion. As Graves points out in his introduction, these arm wrestlers--"pullers"--don't engage in daylong matches of superhuman endurance. Matches last just a few ticks of the clock, and shattered forearms are all too common at the highest levels of this sport. Be forewarned--this novel is not for the weak of stomach. Pretty much anything that can go into or come out of a human body is on display here. One of the most graphic chapters details the ravaging effects of steroids on the body of former armwrestling champ Steve Strong. But Graves' good humor and gleefully over-the-top descriptions keep you laughing even through your queasiness. The only real flaw in this novel isn't the author's fault, it's the editors'. Mistakes like "$20,000 dollars" and misspelling "Schwarzenegger" are inexcusable. But Graves' descriptions are dead on-target, his dialogue is both witty and funny, and his characters are quirky without being caricatures. Graves' depiction of Memphis is one of the book's highlights. This isn't the golden-hued magnolias-and-porch swings Memphis of so many of Graves' contemporaries, nor is it the goofy conspiracy-minded overgrown small town of Grisham's books. Graves' Memphis is a complex place, where lunatics and lawyers alike thrive. This is good, promising work by a strong new Southern voice. Go a couple of rounds with Pullers--it'll take you down, guaranteed!
A wholly sweet and twisted worldview.......1998-11-05
We're traveling in uncharted territory here, bud, the territory of juice freaks (not the Jack Lalanne kind, either) a land where, as an old-time carnival barker might say, everybody has his own proposition. You'll want to take a peek at this world, too, to find out something about your own little prejudices.
I can't rightly say that a novel set in the South and focused on the world of professional arm-wrestling is going to be a breakout bestseller. But in a righteous world, Pullers ought to be. First-time novelist Tom Graves gives a voyeuristic look into the world of arm wrestling, its characters and their cons, their mind games and psyche-outs, and ultimately, teaches us a bit about the South, and its own preoccupation with things that are a bit off the track.
You can't write a goddamn novel about the South without someone mentioning Faulkner, so I am going to beat you to it. Graves is perceptive enough to debunk the myth that Faulkner said "The Mississippi delta begins in the lobby of the Peabody Hotel."
What does begin in Memphis, around the Peabody, though, is a little bit of what John Gardner might call moral fiction, a dissection of this odd little world that would make other moralists (I'm thinking here of Madison Smartt Bell, Russell Banks, or even Harry Crews) proud.
In a jacket blurb, Harry Crews says everyone ought to buy this book. I'd be hard pressed to disagree. Pullers is both a fierce and funny book, a fine first novel.
