But then Kelly died after jumping--or being pushed--out of a twelfth-floor window of Manhattan's Plaza Hotel--wearing only a black garter belt and black stockings. And after having sex with two men. How could this have happened? Kara uncovers a bizarre and twisted world of sadistic sex and decadent violence--and something worse. Something strange and evil in her sister's past that she must conquer. Because as Kara herself slips into the kinky and dangerous world that killed Kelly, she realizes that it's coming after her.

Download or read book Real Justice Guilty of Being Weird written by Cynthia J. Faryon and published by Lorimer. This book was released on 2012-09-12 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At twenty-four, Guy Paul Morin was considered a bit strange. He still lived at home, drove his parents' car, kept bees in the backyard, and grew flowers to encourage the hives. He played the saxophone and clarinet in three bands and loved the swing music of the 1940s. In the small Ontario town where he lived, this meant Guy Paul stood out. So when the nine-year-old girl next door went missing, the police were convinced that Morin was responsible for the little girls murder. Over the course of eight years, police manipulated witnesses and tampered with evidence to target and convict an innocent man. It took ten years and the just-developed science of DNA testing to finally clear his name. This book tells his story, showing how the justice system not only failed to help an innocent young man, but conspired to convict him. It also shows how a determined group of people dug up the evidence and forced the judicial system to give him the justice he deserved. [Fry Reading Level - 5.0

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a World War rages in Europe, a very different kind of war rages in the Barton household. Given that he comes from a long line of doctors, it is with immense difficulty that Donald Barton finally manages to convince his father to let him study something other than medicine at the University of Michigan. The battle only intensifies when Donald feels compelled to drop out of school to join the American cause against the Germans. After spending several months in training, Donald learns that his outfit will find their orders not in France, as they had expected, but rather in northern Russia and a town called Archangel. There, they will join a battle that the history books have long forgottena brief skirmish between the Americans and Russians following the Bolshevik Revolution and just prior to the end of the conflict with Germany. Though the war is drawing down for the rest of the world, Donald finds himself locked in an intense battle for control of a railroad line and a large cache of military supplies. During the crossfire, he falls captive to a Russian platoon, but makes his escape as they transport him through a thick, snowy forest. The resourceful Donald makes his way through a harsh and unfamiliar land without any sense of where he can go to reunite with his fellow soldiers. After a time, he stumbles across a farming village and, faced with the prospect of freezing to death, decides to take the chance of knocking at the door of one of the simple farmhouses. Inside, he finds a humble and welcoming Russian family who feed him and give him safe shelter. In the morning, they introduce him to their beautiful daughter Sofiya. From the way they communicate with their hands, Donald gets the sense that they want to send Sofiya along with him. Reluctantly he agreesmostly because he feels a strange, unspoken connection to this woman, but also because he gets the sense that she will be in danger should she remain behind. Unaware that the war has already ended, Donald and Sofiya embark upon their remarkable odyssey across frigid and unforgiving Siberia in search of American troops who might help them secure safe passage to America. The journey takes them more than a year. In that time, they teach each other their native tongues, foster their creative interests, find help from many unlikely sources, and fall deeply in love. By the time they reach the Trans-Siberian Railroad and the Americans guarding it, they are ready to be married. After a quick wedding ceremony in Harbin, China, they ship home for Philadelphia. Back home, Donald finds an unexpectedly warm welcome from his father. His mother, grandmother, and sister are overjoyed to see him, for his long absence and inability to send letters forced them to assume he was dead. With the help and connections of Donalds family, the two young lovers manage to return to school. The only trouble is that Donald does not yet have any idea what he wants to do for a living. Sofiya is a promising young artist, but Donald cant seem to find a place for himself in life. This restlessness draws the two back to Europe, where they help provide aid to the downtrodden Polish following the war. There, Donald makes a connection with a Jewish tailor named Bergman, a man whose stories send the young wanderer on a path back to his grandmother. From all that he has learned, he discovers that his grandmother is Jewish, a fact that throws his familial identity into question. Intrigued, Donald traces this line of Bergmans to several other previously unknown family members in Philadelphia and Berlin. From Benjamin Bergman in Philadelphia, Donald secures his first real job in a career he never could have envisioned for himself: as a traveling wholesaler of fashionable luggage trunks. Benjamin and his factory construct a high-end, artistic, and well-crafted product that makes Donalds sales job easier than he would have imagined. This fact coupled with Donalds ingenuity leads to exponential growth fo

Download or read book Boleslaw s Curse written by Paul F. Jopling and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So who suffers the greater agony, the cursed or the curser? Don't ask Boleslaw because he won't be able to tell you. There you have it, a most vexing quandary. Truth be told, if it hadn't been for the psychoanalyst who age-regressed Godfrey Christopher, a distraught divorce, to a traumatic childhood incident during one of his therapy sessions, the people and events that ultimately provoked Boleslaw's curse might never have been revealed. While in this hypnagogic state, Godfrey is confronted by a man he had met only recently and later realizes that the individual evoked by his subconscious mind appears not to have aged one iota in the intervening thirty years pursuant to the incident. While attempting to get to the bottom of the enigma he stumbles onto a conspiracy dedicated to avenging the victims of the Katyn massacre, a heinous atrocity committed decades earlier by the Soviets that claimed tens of thousands of innocent lives. Boleslaw's Curse is a novel that not only opens a window onto the Soviet KGB apparat and its infamous Spetzburo Department but also leads the reader across two continents as the brother and the son of one of the murdered victims pursue the principal perpetrators of the massacre. When they ultimately follow them to the United States the question becomes, will Godfrey Christopher's astute probing into the murders of the perpetrators combined with the work of the local police agencies there unmask these two determined assassins, or will the devious stratagems employed by their cadre of compatriotic supporters enable them to escape detection long enough for them to complete their mission of vengeance and return to their homeland? There is an additional quandary, how will the love triangle involving a captivating European woman, the ubiquitous Godfrey Christopher, and one of the assassins be resolved in that both Christopher and the assassin are equally well-liked in this novel and both seemingly driven by unassailable principles?"

Or that as McPhee Investigations goes to the dogs, he'd fall deeply in-like with Dina Wexler, an undertall groomer, whose definition of a P.I. comes from watching w-a-a-y too many detective shows. Or that his absolutely genius idea to catch a thief would make him the prime—and only—suspect in a cold-blooded, diabolical homicide.
