Download or read book Before the Devil Knows You re Dead written by Michael Ledwidge and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the full-throttle, noir-soaked tradition of Dennis Lehane and Michael Connelly, the acclaimed young author of Bad Connection unleashes an ambitious and edgy new thriller pulsating with raw, urban energy. Decorated NYPD Officer John Coglin always thought his picture on the front page of the newspaper would be one for the scrapbook. That was before he had the bad luck to be forced into a witness-free, kill-or-be-killed confrontation with a drug-dealing thug. It's of no help to him that the incident took place during the run-up to a bitter mayoral election campaign, and that his adversary was sixteen years old and black. Now, instead of another commendation, Coglin is staring down the barrel of a media- and politics-stoked murder rap. But on the eve of his sure conviction arrives a fateful telephone call. It's not the governor, but his long-lost uncle, Aidan O'Connell. A veteran of the IRA and a recently released guest of San Quentin Penitentiary for armed-to-the-teeth robbery, Aidan offers his nephew a pardon that has nothing to do with lawyers. Coglin is about to find out that the type of amnesty Uncle Aidan is proposing is the kind that involves a beautiful but dangerous Mafia widow, a car trunk full of M-16s, and thirty million dollars in jewels smack dab in the middle of Rockefeller Center. Before the Devil Knows You're Dead is a highly entertaining, deliciously gritty, super-fast thriller that takes us on a cutthroat ride into an urban realm where criminal intent collides head-on with the vagaries of fate and the inscrutabilities of the human heart.

Download or read book Come Quickly written by Elaine Hensley Ph.D. L.Ac. and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2019-06-06 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turn off your phone and TV. Find a quiet place and listen. God is trying to speak to you. Look for Him, seek His face, and listen. If God were trying to speak to you right now, what would He say? “Do you know how much I love you? Do you trust Me? Come to Me, come back. Come quickly and follow Me. Do not look to the right or to the left. Keep your eyes on Me.” I believe God in one way or another speaks to us daily if we learn how to communicate with Him. You want to just dismiss it, right? I can hear you saying, “God only spoke to people in the Bible.” I don’t believe God uses a burning bush or angel every time He wants to convey a message. God is everywhere. He can communicate in in any way and as often as He chooses. However, who says God spoke to them these days? They are either lying or crazy. Well, I say to you okay, have it your way and don’t believe. Then don’t be surprised when you dream about something totally odd one night and can’t help but wonder if it was just a dream or a message from God trying to talk to you. If he can’t get your attention one way, He will get it another. Do yourself a favor and pay attention the first time. Why is He speaking to us?
