Book excerpt: Peter Michael Webb has two dreams in life: becoming a published author and finding true love. To his great surprise, accomplishing the latter proves far more difficult. Attending the prestigious Stepney Green College in New Jersey’s mountainous northwest is quite a contrast for 23-year-old Pete. In fact, it is a blessing. Raised by a single parent in a struggling working-class neighborhood, he is grateful to be here. Growing up, he witnesses the physical toll a laborious life takes on his hardworking mother, as well as the dark road traveled by his wayward older brother. Determined to avoid these fates, Pete focuses on achieving his college degree—and finding the woman of his dreams. A naïve, hopeless romantic, he learns the hard way that love is not the fluff he had pictured in his mind. Woman after woman shatters his fragile heart, and cruelly. But one woman, his closest friend at Stepney Green, does no such thing. In fact, Corinne Aldrich wants nothing more than to piece it back together with her love. Pete, however, has been hurt enough and is only interested in friendship. Unwilling to wait forever, Corinne moves on after graduation. While Pete pursues—and later, reaches—his goal of becoming a novelist, Corinne accepts a marriage proposal from a dashing Englishman and is the envy of women everywhere. Still, she cannot get her best friend from college out of her heart. When Pete learns Corinne is to leave the country with her fiancé, he must open his eyes to the treasure of a woman he has long since known, the one who can indeed make his dream come true...before it is too late.

Download or read book Thieves Fall Out written by Gore Vidal and published by Titan Books (US, CA). This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An American smuggler in Egypt finds himself at the mercy of killers, femme fatales, and an escalating revolution—a lost pulp crime novel from one of the legends of the genre Lost for more than 60 years and overflowing with political and sexual intrigue, Thieves Fall Out provides a delicious glimpse into the mind of legendary writer Gore Vidal in his formative years. By turns mischievous and deadly serious, Vidal tells the story of a man caught up in events bigger than he is, a down-on-his-luck American hired to smuggle an ancient relic out of Cairo at a time when revolution is brewing and heads are about to roll. One part Casablanca and one part torn-from-the-headlines tabloid reportage, this novel also offers a startling glimpse of Egypt in turmoil—written over half a century ago, but as current as the news streaming from the streets of Cairo today. Gore Vidal was one of America’s greatest and most controversial writers. The author of twenty-three novels, five plays, three memoirs, numerous screenplays and short stories, and well over two hundred essays, he received the National Book Award in 1993. In 1953, Vidal had already begun writing the works that would launch him to the top ranks of American authors and intellectuals. But in the wake of criticism for the scandalous content of his third novel, The City and the Pillar, Vidal turned to writing crime fiction under pseudonyms: three books as “Edgar Box” and one as “Cameron Kay.” The Edgar Box novels were subsequently republished under his real name. The Cameron Kay never was.
