Download or read book Don t Wee in the Bath Terry written by Gez Walsh and published by Kings England Press. This book was released on 2003-09-01 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We've all been there. Some kids still are. Looking under the bed for the bogeyman, experiencing the delights of odd socks, or suffering from (our own and other people's) bad breff as Gez so charmingly puts it. Yet Gez isn't always so grounded in real life and the authentic language of the school playground and the top deck of the bus. Sometimes he goes off into the absurdest, grossest of fantasies, with Spike-Milligan-esque poems like Gnome Sweet Gnome and Steve and His Secret Agent Underpants. Not to mention Henry Meek, who can make his bottom squeak, and saves a climber lost in the mountains with this unusual talent.

Book excerpt: From hard-hitting New York Daily News columnist Linda Stasi comes Book of Judas, a riveting religious thriller featuring beloved protagonist Alessandra Russo. When her infant son is placed in mortal danger, New York City reporter Alessandra Russo is forced to save him by tracking down the missing pages of the Gospel of Judas, a heretical manuscript that was unearthed in Al-Minya, Egypt, in the 1970s. The manuscript declares that Judas was the beloved, not the betrayer, of Jesus. The Gospel disappeared for decades before being rediscovered, rotted beyond repair, in a safety deposit box. Rumors insist that the most important pages had been stolen—pages that Alessandra now must find, if they even exist. Do the lost pages contain a secret that will challenge Christianity's core beliefs about the creation of life, or that might hold the power to unleash Armageddon? What if such explosive documents fell into the hands of modern-day terrorists, dictators, or religious fanatics? Alessandra plunges into a dark world of murder, conspiracy, and sexual depravity...and most importantly, a race against the clock to save her own child. In this exciting follow-up to The Sixth Station, award-winning journalist Linda Stasi brings her formidable investigative skills, big city street smarts, and fast-flying pen to a thriller that will leave readers breathless. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
Download or read book The Twain Does Meet written by Elaine L. Orr and published by Elaine Orr. This book was released on 2020-03-15 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Twain Does Meet" is a between-the-numbers book in the Jolie Gentil series, and while there are joys and problems to discover it's not a traditional cozy mystery. In book 10 (The Unexpected Resolution) Jolie solves a murder, she and Scoobie get married, and they gain a new family member--Scoobie's much-younger half-brother. Book 11 (Underground in Ocean Alley) takes place a few years later, and mystery solving is accompanied by their three-year old twins. I promised readers they would have the story of the twins' birth -- an anything-but-calm event -- but it didn't seem right to mix it with a murder. So, we have a 33,000 word novella that features laughs and angst with the Ocean Alley crew and more than a few surprises. A fun read with familiar characters.

It is a poignant story that will tug at your heart a story jammed with unexpected excitement. The author of Boy s Home went through eight formative years in this unusual situation, and writes his unique story in first person, realistic fiction. Damon, an adept, handsome boy, nearly two years older befriends him. He protects guides and teaches him the way of life in this uncanny climate. Everything is shared: the cliques, the problems, the pranks, the initiation rituals, the discipline, and the intimacies. Subordinated with unbelievable, unique characters: Miss Jay, the head matron, an indifferent old bitch, crafty, cold-hearted, and faster than a hummingbird with her back-handers. Mrs. Smith, the compassionate cook with an English accent, a facade of toughness, but a heart as soft and sweet as pure whipped cream; Julie, the author s first encounter with the opposite sex that leaves him with a deceived and aching, crushed nebulous heart. The thread of sexual awakening that slowly wends its way through the pages of Boy s Home becomes the unraveling and final snag to this rare and innermost story.

Download or read book Peacekeeping written by Mischa Berlinski and published by Sarah Crichton Books. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE DARING, EAGERLY ANTICIPATED SECOND NOVEL BY THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD–NOMINATED AUTHOR OF FIELDWORK Mischa Berlinski’s first novel, Fieldwork, was published in 2007 to rave reviews—Hilary Mantel called it “a quirky, often brilliant debut” and Stephen King said it was “a story that cooks like a mother”—and it was a finalist for the National Book Award. Now Berlinski returns with Peacekeeping, an equally enthralling story of love, politics, and death in the world’s most intriguing country: Haiti. When Terry White, a former deputy sheriff and a failed politician, goes broke in the 2007–2008 financial crisis, he takes a job working for the UN, helping to train the Haitian police. He’s sent to the remote town of Jérémie, where there are more coffin makers than restaurants, more donkeys than cars, and the dirt roads all slope down sooner or later to the postcard sea. Terry is swept up in the town’s complex politics when he befriends an earnest, reforming American-educated judge. Soon he convinces the judge to oppose the corrupt but charismatic Sénateur Maxim Bayard in an upcoming election. But when Terry falls in love with the judge’s wife, the electoral drama threatens to become a disaster. Tense, atmospheric, tightly plotted, and surprisingly funny, Peacekeeping confirms Berlinski’s gifts as a storyteller. Like Fieldwork, it explores a part of the world that is as fascinating as it is misunderstood—and takes us into the depths of the human soul, where the thirst for power and the need for love can overrun judgment and morality.

In this who's who of top-tier wrestling, Duggan reveals not only the high points of championship bouts but also the low points that occurred far away from the TV cameras and screaming fans, including his fight against kidney cancer during the prime of his career.
