But things have not exactly been breaking right lately for the Alaskan PI. The logical thing to do? Take a vacation, of course. Well, it’s not exactly a vacation. Cecil has been paid to investigate a doctor aboard a cruise ship up the Alaskan coast following some complaints from his patients . . . that is, the patients who are still alive to complain. Worst of all, someone is leaving evidence pointing an accusing finger at Cecil. By the time the S.S. Westward makes landfall, Cecil will be wishing he was back guarding chickens.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The private investigator juggles multiple investigations and a crumbling personal life in the second Cecil Younger mystery set in Sitka, Alaska. “Like the Coen brothers on literary speed, John Straley is among the very best stylists of his generation.” —Ken Bruen, author of The Guards When Louise Root, a new client of Cecil Younger, is found murdered, the private investigator finds himself in the middle of a web of secrets and deadly repercussions—usually not found in the world of environmental politics. Not only that, it seems everyone suddenly wants Younger's help: his old friend, Doggy, the DA; his autistic roommate, Todd, whose Labrador retriever has disappeared; an image-conscious environmental activist; and even the sleazy executives of Global Mining, whose interest in the case is a more than a little suspicious. In the midst of all this, Younger is wrecked by guilt, and his personal life is fraying as he tries to keep his drinking under control. He's got his hands full trying to juggle his lingering emotions over his ex-lover, the multiple investigations, and simply trying to stay alive.

Book excerpt: To his chagrin, Alaskan PI Cecil Younger learns his teenage daughter has launched her own detective agency. But when her first case goes awry, she’s going to need some help from an unlikely source: her father, who’s currently locked up in prison. The verdict from the three-judge panel is in. Cecil Younger, bumbling criminal defense investigator and totally embarrassing father, has been sentenced to seven-and-a-half years in prison for his involvement in . . . well, a number of things, ranging from destruction of private property to killing a guy. But compared to the original twenty-five-year sentence, it's not so bad. His success with getting his sentence reduced has attracted the attention of his fellow inmates, and one man, "Fourth Street," reaches out for advice for his upcoming parole hearing in exchange for protection and companionship. When he isn't reading Adrienne Rich or James Baldwin with Fourth Street, Cecil spends his time filling up large yellow legal pads. He writes, mostly, about his teenage daughter, Blossom, who is on a Nancy Drew–like quest to help her friend, George, discover the truth about her biological parents, which turns out to be complicated. Shortly after submitting a mail-in genetics test, George learns she is the infamous "Baby Jane Doe" who was kidnapped from her Native mother shortly after she was born. A media and legal circus quickly ensues, and George's reunion with her birth family isn’t the heartwarming story the journalists hoped it would be. There is an even darker secret about the baby-snatching case, a secret threatens to destroy not just George’s family—but Cecil’s as well.

Book excerpt: Times have been hard lately for Alaskan p.i. Cecil Younger; chicken-coop surveillance was not what he had in mind. Enter Sonny Walters of the Great Circle Cruise Lines, whose first-class ship has a first-class problem: unsavoury rumours about the ship's doctor, not good for business when most of the passengers are already ill. More than that he will not say, but with free rein, free passage and unlimited bar tab, Cecil's not about to quibble. But when the well-heeled but elderly passengers start going belly-up, it's clear that this cruise is no rest cure. Euthanasia is one thing; but is this murder? Shamus Award-winning John Straley writes mysteries of unusual depth and moral complexity, and The Angels Will Not Care is his best yet.

Download or read book HOLY ANGELS written by SEBASTIAN CHUKWUMA ANOKWULU and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a testimony of faith to reawaken in the reader the presence and ministry of the Holy Angels as ordained by God and revealed in the Holy Bible. The Holy Angels as Messengers of God are never treated in isolation from God. Whenever and wherever they are mentioned in the Scriptures, it is always to inform us further about God's love and care for man. Using wide range of Biblical citations and narratives from the OT and NT, the early Christian community, the Church Fathers, lives of some famous Saints and personal encounters, the author leads the reader to see that these Holy Messengers still minister to us today. The book strongly re-emphasizes the truths about the love and care of the Holy Angels to man as commanded by God. Where there is light, there is no darkness. Demons or evil spirits do not work where the Holy Angels minister. Whoever believes in the works of the devil should believe more in the ministry of the Holy Angels because it is in their absence that the evil one operates. The author wants the reader to realize that as life is miserable without light and light energy, so miserable is a life without the presence and ministry of the Holy Angels. God sent them to help those who are to "inherit salvation" (Heb. 1:14).
