Book excerpt: "I don't suppose you have a friend who is a warthog. You probably don't have a friend who is a professional detective, either. So it's very unlikely that you have a friend who's both. But I do."So begins the adventures of Nixk Sayga and his friend Bill, a warthog detective, in Full Metal Trench Coat, the first book in the new Bill the Warthog Mysteries series. As Bill fights kid's "crimes," such as investigating celebrity soccer shoes and broken skateboard helmets, he also teaches Nick and his friends about the Armour of God. Kids will love trying to figure out each chapter's mystery as they enjoy the zany antics of Bill, Nick and their friends. And they will laugh at Bill's crazy attempts to fit in with kids, even putting tennis balls on his tusks so he can join the soccer team without risk of injuring the palyers! Bill the Warthog Mysteries: Full Metal Trench Coat will bring laughter and learning to preteens, and kids of all ages!

But when she gets to Carter’s Crossing, the local sheriff and Mayor Elizabeth Deveraux have joined forces with two Majors from the Army’s 110th Investigative Unit to bury the truth forever. The Affair was the start of the Reacher saga. In Full Metal Jack, will Otto’s career end where Reacher’s began? Lee Child Gives Diane Capri Two Thumbs Up!
