Download or read book Black Bird written by James Keene and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 2022-07-05 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featured on Dateline and CNN, Black Bird is the true story of a young man destined for greatness on the football field—until a few wrong turns led him to a ten-year prison sentence. He was offered an impossible mission: Coax a confession out of a fellow inmate, a serial killer, and walk free. James Keene grew up outside of Chicago. Although he was the son of a policeman and rubbed shoulders with the city's elite, he ended up on the wrong side of the law and was sentenced to ten years with no chance of parole. Just a few months into his sentence, Keene was approached by the prosecutor who put him behind bars. He had convicted a man named Larry Hall for abducting and killing a fifteen-year-old. Although Hall was suspected of killing nineteen other young women, there was a chance he could still be released on appeal. If Keene could get him to confess to two murders, there would be no doubt about Hall's guilt. In return, Keene would get an unconditional release from prison. But he could also get killed. A story that gained national notoriety, Black Bird is James Keene's powerful tale of peril, violence, and redemption.

BIG TROUBLE The Piasa bird is a bizarre buzzard with antlers like a deer, a beard like a lion, a body covered with scales—and damned if Clint Adams didn't catch a glimpse of it along the Mississippi. His curiosity about the mysterious legend leads him to Alton, Missouri, where a lovely but bashful librarian is willing to answer his questions, and the Law is eager to ask them—not about some fool bird, but about a killing. The Piasa bird may be a myth, but there's nothing fictitious about a woman's murder. Now the Gunsmith must separate fact from fancy—because he himself is the main suspect...
