Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four aviation thrillers from an author who “melds the maze of today’s airline industry with intrigue and mystery” (John J. Nance, New York Times–bestselling author of Final Approach). The friendly skies are anything but in these expertly crafted novels of suspense set in the cutthroat world of the airline industry, now available in one volume. In Hard Landing—called “an edge-of-your-seat thriller that sweeps you up and carries you along for the ride” by Lisa Gardner—Alex Shanahan takes over Majestic Airlines at Logan International Airport, and discovers that her predecessor’s mysterious death may not have been suicide. In Parts Unknown, black market airplane parts put countless lives at risk, including Alex’s. In the “action-filled” First Class Killing, Alex goes undercover as a flight attendant to bust up a mile-high prostitution ring (The Boston Globe). And in The Pandora Key, a very cold case heats up, and puts Alex in the crosshairs of the Russian mob, as acclaimed author Lynne Hinton brings “the whole shebang to a taut, satisfying conclusion” (Publishers Weekly).

Logan Airport is in a state of chaos, with divided loyalties tearing it apart. And hanging over everyone’s heads is the mysterious suicide of Alex’s predecessor. There are dark secrets at Logan—especially surrounding a fatal plane crash—that could destroy the careers of everyone involved. Secrets that have already claimed lives. And Alex may be next. “Fasten your seat belt—this story, written by an airline industry insider, is exciting from start to finish.” —American Way “Hard Landing delves beneath the ticket counters and departure gates to expose how both a major airline and a major airport really work . . .

Download or read book A Dream or A Nightmare written by Armando Ramirez and published by Armando Ramirez. This book was released on 2021-03-13 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pages of this book will discuss a little bit about the reasons for migration and its consequences. The questions are raised and analyzed what is what motivates migrants to leave their land, family, friends, and in many cases possessions which are often poorly sold (losses) to afford the expenses of the trip. It is not intended at all to propose a solution to this phenomenon or problem as some describe it, but to capture in a general way the panorama of migrants, their experiences and vicissitudes, mainly in America, and to motivate a little to awareness on this situation that generates this so-called “American Dream” which for most people in too many cases ends in a nightmare. The hardships and experiences suffered by migrants in general. It should be clarified that other books or articles may have already been written addressing this topic, however, I have not read anyone about it, only some articles and also I know of this subject by what it is seen in the news and what I lived on my own. Here are described some specific stories and cases in which this so-called “American Dream" did not end as it was figured out by those who experienced it. In addition to the statistical data provided in this book for which a full research work has been done through different websites, the stories of those who and for whom this so-called dream became a nightmare or simply the dream ended in its own beginning, that is, it did not even begin. Success stories are also told, the book intends to point what has been called “dream” from two sides or two points of view, although it should be clarified that originally it was not conceived to raise it that way, however, it would be unfair to raise only the negative side, as also focusing only on the “positive” side (if we can call it so). So, the reader will have an overview of this phenomenon and then form his own concept and draw his own conclusions. By clarification, this book emphasizes the stories of immigrants for which this so-called dream was not only possible, but it even went beyond their expectations, so that this so-called "dream" could be seen in these two ways. It is now necessary to be clear that North Americans like immigrants have their own dreams. It is a fact that all human beings are dreamers, whether we are white, mixed or natives Americans, whether Asian, European, African, etc. We all dream of a better tomorrow, of a better life, of well-being, with financial comfort, and with happiness for us and ours. Dreaming is inherent to the human being. In the end, the reader will find a reflection on this topic, on this so-called «American Dream». However, it is necessary to clarify that this is neither a book for nor against migration, nor is it neither for nor against this so-called "American Dream", since, although in many cases the purpose was not achieved, it is also true that in more than one case, those who emigrated, were able to achieve their purpose, or their “dreams”. If you are willing to fulfill this “dream”, you must also be willing to pay the cost of making it true. It is about giving the elements to the reader to evaluate on their own whether it is worth the risk, knowing and being aware that everything in this life has a price, but no dream is worth it if the result is hardship, sadness, loneliness, high sacrifices and in the worst case, death. It may be as a bit of advice, a warning to those who have not yet emigrated and to those who have already done so, so that they may reflect on whether effort or sacrifice was worth it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “But will it play in Peoria?” For years, the Midwest has been used as a stand-in for “average America”. The sweeping great plains, the heavy snows of winter, ice fishing and mighty rivers and frozen lakes. Midwesterners have a reputation for being the salt of the earth, friendly and kind and helpful and nice. But is “Midwestern nice” merely a cover for what really goes on in this part of the country? John Wayne Gacy, the bloody Benders, and Jeffrey Dahmer were all Midwesterners—but that doesn’t mean every Midwesterner has bodies buried in their basements…or does it? To celebrate Boucheron, the world’s largest mystery fan convention, coming to Minneapolis in 2022, editor Greg Herren is proud to present a series of tales that will shock and surprise you—and maybe make you think twice about that ice-fishing trip, or before taking a snowmobile out after the sun goes down. Featuring authors from all over the Midwest who know just how dark and lonesome it can get out there in the country at night, these crime stories will entertain you with their trip down the dark side of the “real America”—where the twilight’s last gleaming has an entirely different meaning and feel. Featuring some of the top, award-winning authors in the field today—from Mindy Mejia to Marcie R. Rendon to Michael Wiley, Susanna Calkins and Erica Ruth Neubauer, and Bryon Quertermous, Tessa Wegert, Raquel V. Reyes, and Richie Narvaez—doing some of their finest work to date. Collected and curated by award-winning editor Greg Herren, with stories ranging from light to darkly funny to just out-and-out macabre, Land of 10,000 Thrills is one of the strongest anthologies put together by the Bouchercon conference to date. These stories may not “play in Peoria”…but mystery fans everywhere will enjoy them.

Download or read book Nighty Nightmare written by James Howe and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-01-24 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An overnight camping trip! Not Harold's idea of fun. Too many mosquitoes, ticks and cockleburs. But when the Monroe family set out, their faithful dog Harold was with them, mostly because he remembered that camping could also bring s'mores and toasted marshmallows. Howie, the other family dog, and Chester the cat were also included in the trip. Only Chester thought the idea was completely insane. The woods, he informed Harold, were not only full of cockleburs and ticks, but of spirits, evil spirits who prey on the innocent. And on this, the worst night of the year -- St. George's Eve, when all spirits are set loose -- who knew what could happen. What Harold knew was that Chester was a well read, over-stimulated cat, full of weird ideas. He did not take Chester's worries too seriously. He had s'more to think about. But then, the Monroes set up camp near two strange men and their even stranger dog, and things began to happen that made even Harold wonder. Could Chester be right? This begins a long night, full of terrors and alarms, full of Chester's horrifying tale of how Bunnicula, the vampire bunny, was born and came to America, full of storms and a total sense of danger; and at the end came surprises that even Chester could not have predicted. Once again, the Monroe family may be the victims of evil forces or only of Chester's strange imagination. But whichever, the result is suspenseful and very, very funny.
