His cousin Graham is missing, leaving behind a cranky girlfriend and a cryptic message but little else. Teaming up with a vivacious park ranger named Lauren, Ray deciphers Graham's message and follows it to a variety of Jackson Hole landmarks. Each is somehow tied to a century-old contract, a power struggle between two of the area's prominent families, and a cult-like belief rooted in the valley's mystical aura. The more they learn, the more questions Ray and Lauren have-and the more they fear the worst about Graham. Set against the panorama of the Teton Mountains, Broken Trust explores the lust for power, the relationship between the mystic and the divine, and the depths of loyalty and friendship . . . and ends with a bang!

If Jackson is to procure the Bible for Abby, he'll need to stay one step ahead of the entire gang-not to mention stay alive long enough to figure out how to pull it off.
Download or read book Howard Fast written by Gerald Sorin and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2012-11-05 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Howard Fast's life, from a rough-and-tumble Jewish New York street kid to the rich and famous author of close to 100 books, rivals the Horatio Alger myth. Author of bestsellers such as Citizen Tom Paine, Freedom Road, My Glorious Brothers, and Spartacus, Fast joined the American Communist Party in 1943 and remained a loyal member until 1957, despite being imprisoned for contempt of Congress. Gerald Sorin illuminates the connections among Fast's Jewishness, his writings, and his left-wing politics and explains Fast's attraction to the Party and the reasons he stayed in it as long as he did. Recounting the story of his private and public life with its adventure and risk, love and pain, struggle, failure, and success, Sorin also addresses questions such as the relationship between modern Jewish identity and radical movements, the consequences of political myopia, and the complex interaction of art, popular culture, and politics in 20th-century America.
