Book excerpt: The eighth hotly anticipated book in the Elemental Assassin series by New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Estep: it’s Gin Blanco's party—and you’ll cry if she wants you to. Red is definitely my color. Good thing, because in my line of work, I end up wearing it a lot. Most people shy away from blood, but for an assassin like me— Gin Blanco, aka the Spider—it’s just part of the job. Still, it would be nice to get a night off, especially when I’m attending the biggest gala event of the summer at Briartop, Ashland’s fanciest art museum. But it’s just not meant to be. For this exhibition of my late nemesis’s priceless possessions is not only the place to be seen, but the place to be robbed and taken hostage at gunpoint as well. No sooner did I get my champagne than a bunch of the unluckiest thieves ever burst into the museum and started looting the place. Unlucky why? Because I brought along a couple of knives in addition to my killer dress. Add these to my Ice and Stone magic, and nothing makes me happier than showing the bad guys why red really is my color.

Download or read book The King s Assassin written by Benjamin Woolley and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An absorbing account of the conspiracy to kill King James I by his handsome lover, the Duke of Buckingham, an historical crime that has remained hidden for 400 years. The rise of George Villiers from minor gentry to royal power seemed to defy gravity. Becoming gentleman of the royal bedchamber in 1615, the young gallant enraptured James, Britain’s first Stuart king, royal adoration reaching such an intensity that the king declared he wanted the courtier to become his ‘wife’. For a decade, Villiers was at the king’s side – at court, on state occasions, and in bed, right up to James’s death in March 1625. Almost immediately, Villiers’ many enemies accused him of poisoning the king. A parliamentary investigation was launched, and scurrilous pamphlets and ballads circulated London’s streets. But the charges came to nothing, and were relegated to a historical footnote. Now, new research suggests that a deadly combination of hubris and vulnerability did indeed drive Villiers to kill the man who made him. It may have been by accident – the application of a quack remedy while the king was weakened by a malarial attack. But there is compelling evidence that Villiers, overcome by ambition and frustrated by James’s passive approach to government, poisoned him. In The King’s Assassin, acclaimed author Benjamin Woolley examines this remarkable, even tragic story. Combining vivid characterization and a strong narrative with historical scholarship and forensic investigation, Woolley tells the story of King James’s death, and of the captivating figure at its center.

JFK was going to replace Hoover and Johnson craved the Presidency. Kennedy was going to end our involvement in "the quagmire" of Vietnam which the Military-Industrial "complex" could not afford to let happen. President Eisenhower had warned Kennedy about that situation.

Download or read book Lincoln Assassination Series Box Set written by Sidney St. James and published by BeeBop Publishing Group. This book was released on with total page 1323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lincoln Assassination Series Books 1 – 5 Written as Creative Historical Nonfiction BOX SET President Abraham Lincoln said, "It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt!" President Jefferson Davis said, "I worked night and day for twelve years to prevent the War, but I could not. The North was mad and blind, would not let us govern ourselves, and so the War came." BOOK 1 – THE LOST CAUSE – The Lincoln Assassination The assassination of Abraham Lincoln on April 14, 1865, and his death at 7:22 am on April 15 is covered in this first novel. His funeral train back home is narrated along with the ending punishment phase of the conspirators. Much of the life of Jefferson Davis is brought to life, including how the United States didn't fly a flag at half-mast honoring him. He was the only former Secretary of War not given this respect in the history of the United States. BOOK 2: PURSUIT AND CAPTURE OF JOHN WILKES BOOTH General Robert E. Lee said, "There's a terrible war coming. These young men who have never seen War can't wait for it to happen. But, I tell you, I wish that I owned every slave in the South, for I would free them all to avoid this War!" This novel will follow John Wilkes Booth and the federal forces' extensive manhunt to capture him. Still, there are questions. In the memoirs of one of the soldiers who captured the assassin, said the man they killed had a "red" mustache. Booth's, of course, was black. BOOK 3: LEWIS THORNTON POWELL – The Conspiracy to Kill Abraham Lincoln Winston Churchill once said, "History is written by the victors." From all indication, enough preliminary witnesses placed Lewis Thornton Powell in the same room with Secretary of State Seward. William E. Doster took over representation for the defense of Powell. Doster was a graduate of Yale and Harvard and the former provost marshal for the District of Columbia. BOOK 4: KNIGHTS OF THE GOLDEN CIRCLE – A Most Secretive Organization This book is more of a reference manual for writing the other four novels in the series. You can't understand the Lincoln Assassination without an understanding of the Knights of the Golden Circle, the most powerful and secret society in all America at the time of the Civil War. The organization grew out of Southern Rights Clubs in the South who were mostly interested in opening up more territory to slavery. The actual words written in this reference novel were written by a member of the Order who never revealed his name. BOOK 5: MARY ELIZABETH SURRATT – First Woman Executed by the Federal Government The entire court case for Mary Elizabeth Surratt is depicted in this novel, the fifth novel in the Lincoln Assassination Series. The reader can follow the trial and determine for themselves from the evidence and the testimony of the witnesses if she should be found guilty or innocent. A military tribunal, rather than a civilian court, was chosen as the prosecutorial venue. Why? President Andrew Johnson did not declare an end to the War Between the States until August 1866. Was Mary Elizabeth Surratt in the wrong place at the wrong time? Was the United States Government out for revenge… out for blood! President Andrew Johnson said, "Mary Elizabeth Surratt kept the nest that hatched the egg!" This quote suggests that Johnson was bolstering his belief that she was guilty and deserved the harshest sentence allowed. An exciting conclusion in this five-novel series on the Lincoln Assassination…

Download or read book Assassin written by J. Bowyer Bell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assassination as a political act has a long history, predating the murder of Julius Caesar and continuing into our own time. The murder of the mighty has long fascinated artists and rebels but only rarely has it been studied in a scholarly manner. In Assassin, J. Bowyer Bell combines existing historical evidence with years of personal interviews with terrorists in Africa, the Middle East, and Europe. The result is an incisive study of that enigmatic figure, the revolutionary killer. As Bell makes clear, the motives of the actors, and effectiveness of assassination, vary widely across time and place. Assassination in many parts of the world has not only been a normal political act, rational, explicable, but also often effective, in some cases taking fewer lives in the transfer of power than an election. Likewise, there have been all kinds of assassins--personal, psychopathic, professional, ranging from lonely failures trying to make their mark to authorized agents of the state. Using the assassination of Henry IV of France as a historical backdrop, Bell writes about contemporary political murder from the perspective of one who has studied the subject of political violence for decades. Bell has met with or known well the perpetrators, conspirators, and intended victims of assassination who have escaped. His interviewees include a radical Irish revolutionary leader, an American Arabist diplomat, a spokesman for the PLO, and the president of a Mozambique liberation movement. The itinerary of his investigative journeys covers most of the flashpoints of contemporary political violence. The people and places studied here at firsthand are engaged in a deadly game. The attrition rate is often high, the power fleeting, and the consequences often unforeseen. If past is prologue, assassination is to be with us for years to come. The volume will be essential reading for those engaged in the prevention of political violence and terror as well as historians and political scientists.
