What if you figured out a way to pull off an impossible crime? Would you do it? That is the million-dollar question for security expert Viktor Alexov when he visits the Royal Canadian Mint in Ottawa as a tourist. What begins as a hypothetical, problem-solving exercise for him soon becomes an obsession when he realizes he knows the perfect way to steal gold undetected from one of the most secure buildings in the world. With two accomplices from his Bulgarian Army days, Alexov sets out to commit the crime of the century. But in order to do the job, they must first recruit inside help at the Mint. Some Mint workers are recruited through greed, some through passion, and others through blackmail. As hundreds of details come together, Alexov and his team become more and more confident that they have the perfect plan. With so much preparation, what could possibly go wrong... Inspired by a real-life reported $13 million "loss" of gold at the Royal Canadian Mint, with Theft at the Royal, Wayne H. Hyatt has created a page-turner crime novel that will leave you forever second-guessing "official reports" of events....

This updated and streamlined new edition of the pioneering Hyatt and French Community Association Law coursebook is an ideal vehicle for introducing students to this increasingly important subject. From housing just 2 million Americans in 1970, common interest communities had grown to house 57 million, or 19% of the American population, by 2006. Community associations, which manage these communities, bear similarities to not-for-profit corporations, municipal governments, and trusts, but are different. The evolving body of community association law draws from all these fields but reflects the unique character and needs of common interest communities. Reflecting the expertise of its authors, the book combines academic rigor and practical knowledge. Primary materials include important cases, statutes (including proposed revisions to UCIOA), the Restatement (Third) of Property, Servitudes, and references to the growing body of literature on gated communities, co-housing developments, private governments, and other property regimes used to avoid the tragedy of the commons in groups that hold common property.
