As the privileged daughter of a powerful local judge, Kate views the case as her chance to show her boss, her family, and the public that she is more than just “the judge’s daughter.” As Kate delves into it, she becomes convinced that she shares a personal link with the killer, who seems to know intimate details about a tragic childhood event from Kate's past—an event she’d long been trying to forget.

Download or read book Beat the Devils written by Josh Weiss and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2022-03-22 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This inventive, page-turning crime thriller, shortlisted for the Sidewise Award, with "palpable emotional depth" (New York Times Book Review) envisions a world in which the Red Scare never ended. USA, 1958. President Joseph McCarthy sits in the White House, elected on a wave of populist xenophobia and barely‑concealed anti‑Semitism. The country is in the firm grip of McCarthy's Hueys, a secret police force evolved from the House Un-American Activities Committee. Hollywood's sparkling vision of the American dream has been suppressed; its remaining talents forced to turn out endless anti‑communist propaganda. LAPD detective Morris Baker—a Holocaust survivor who drowns his fractured memories of the unspeakable in schnapps and work—is called to the scene of a horrific double‑homicide. The victims are John Huston, a once‑promising but now forgotten film director, and an up‑and‑coming young journalist named Walter Cronkite. Clutched in the hand of one of the dead men is a cryptic note containing the phrase “beat the devils” followed by a single name: Baker. Did the two men die in an attack fueled by better-dead-than-red sentiment, as the Hueys are quick to conclude, or were they murdered in a cover-up designed to protect—or even set in motion—a secret plot connected to Baker's past? In a country where terror grows stronger by the day, and paranoia rises unchecked, Baker is determined to find justice for two men who raised their voices in a time when free speech comes at the ultimate cost. In the course of his investigation, Baker stumbles into a conspiracy that reaches deep into the halls of power and uncovers a secret that could destroy the City of Angels—and the American ideal itself.

Book Where the Devil Don t Stay

  • Author : Stephen Deusner
  • Publisher : University of Texas Press
  • Release : 2021-09-07
  • ISBN : 1477323937
  • Pages : 295 pages

Download or read book Where the Devil Don t Stay written by Stephen Deusner and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1996, Patterson Hood recruited friends and fellow musicians in Athens, Georgia, to form his dream band: a group with no set lineup that specialized in rowdy rock and roll. The Drive-By Truckers, as they named themselves, grew into one of the best and most consequential rock bands of the twenty-first century, a great live act whose songs deliver the truth and nuance rarely bestowed on Southerners, so often reduced to stereotypes. Where the Devil Don’t Stay tells the band’s unlikely story not chronologically but geographically. Seeing the Truckers’ albums as roadmaps through a landscape that is half-real, half-imagined, their fellow Southerner Stephen Deusner travels to the places the band’s members have lived in and written about. Tracking the band from Muscle Shoals, Alabama, to Richmond, Virginia, to the author’s hometown in McNairy County, Tennessee, Deusner explores the Truckers’ complex relationship to the South and the issues of class, race, history, and religion that run through their music. Drawing on new interviews with past and present band members, including Jason Isbell, Where the Devil Don’t Stay is more than the story of a great American band; it’s a reflection on the power of music and how it can frame and shape a larger culture.

Book All the Devils Are Here

Download or read book All the Devils Are Here written by Bethany McLean and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-08-30 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as "the best business book of 2010" (Huffington Post), this New York Times bestseller about the 2008 financial crisis brings the devastation of the Great Recession to life. As soon as the financial crisis erupted, the finger-pointing began. Should the blame fall on Wall Street, Main Street, or Pennsylvania Avenue? On greedy traders, misguided regulators, sleazy subprime companies, cowardly legislators, or clueless home buyers? According to Bethany McLean and Joe Nocera, two of America's most acclaimed business journalists, many devils helped bring hell to the economy. All the Devils Are Here goes back several decades to weave the hidden history of the financial crisis in a way no previous book has done. It explores the motivations of everyone from famous CEOs, cabinet secretaries, and politicians to anonymous lenders, borrowers, analysts, and Wall Street traders. It delves into the powerful American mythology of homeownership. And it proves that the crisis ultimately wasn't about finance at all; it was about human nature. Just as McLean's The Smartest Guys in the Room was hailed as the best Enron book on a crowded shelf, so will All the Devils Are Here be remembered for finally making sense of the financial meltdown and its consequences.

Book Devil s Music  Holy Rollers and Hillbillies

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rock music today is universal and its popular history is well known. Yet few know how and why it really came about. Taking a fresh look at events long overlooked or misunderstood, this book tells how some of the most disenfranchised people in a free and prosperous nation strove to make themselves heard--and changed the world. Describing the genesis of rock and roll, the author covers everything from its deep roots in the Mississippi Delta, key early figures, like deejay "Daddy-O" Dewey Phillips and gospel star Sister Rosetta Tharpe, and the influence of so-called "holy rollers" of the Pentecostal church who became crucial performers--Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard.

Book The Devils Wimp Was Gods Man

  • Publisher : Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
  • Release : 2022-11-03
  • ISBN : 1642996262
  • Pages : 34 pages

Download or read book The Devils Wimp Was Gods Man written by Alzina Mouton-Moore and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-11-03 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why This Book In the late 1980's I started Ministering at different Men Jails and Prisons in California. This particular time as I was getting ready to go to my assigned Pod, there were Deputies bringing in Men shackles by their hands and feet; one of the Men looked at me and said we need prater too. I always wanted to go into the Pod where the gangs were, but they never allow me. My Hear would cry for them because they would allow gang members to be in the same cells and you could actually feel the tension. I ministered at Chuckawalla and Ironwood Prison in Blyte CA; Donovan Prison which is in San Diego, CA. The talent and gifts that were in the Jails and Prisons blew my mind because all these gifts and talents were locked up. The Devils Wimp was born in 1989, and the Lord bless me to preach it in the prisons and jails. Let's Get to Eden was born in 2010. I was visiting this church in Rialto CA and they sang the song Let's Get Back to Eden living on top of this world. And in January 2011, the Lord blessed me to have Men's Conference "Let's Get Back to Eden because You're Up Front On Top and In Charge" was the theme. In 2016 was when the Lord out the titles together and He wanted it in book form, so here it is. Truly just seeing the miraculous hand of God's work in the lives of Men, the transformation is awesome. Why the book, because men are hurting wanting to be delivered and set free. They really don't like themselves the way they are, but they have so much pride and would rather stay that way until they are urged by God that they need to be delivered. When God sets them up and touch their heart truly they are ready to get rid of the pride and every chain that is keeping them in bondage and want to be free. Just seeing them crying and crawling on the floor trying to get to the altar, and God meeting them there at the altar is life changing not just for them but for us also. Just seeing the new creation bloom. There was one time I was having a Men's fellowship in my one-bedroom apartment. I didn't' think it was going to be that man men there. It was fifty men and they were in the balcony, living room, dining room and in the kitchen and they were like sardines. I forgot the message that God has given me but man oh man, oh man it was truly a set up by God. Afterwards, (I always was the only there) I would have a couple of ladies that would help me serve food. When they walked in they were shocked and guess what my Brothers in Christ cleaned up and put everything back in order. Why the book, just like us ladies men have been mistreated, rejected, betrayed, bruised, abused and the list goes on and on, so have they. And God wants His men to be encouraged and strengthened, Delivered and set free so they could be the Real Men, husbands, father's, uncles, grandfathers, and brothers' that God ha call them to be. My prayer is that every make would allow The Man (Jesus Christ) into their lives, so He could teach them how to take their Rightful place in this world and take dominion (rule) over everything God has given them, they way it was in Eden ( the garden of delight)....

But nobody knows about them' A young boy grows up in Terezn - an infamous fortress town with a sinister past. Together with his friends he plays happily in this former Nazi prison, scouting the tunnels for fragments of history under the careful eye of one of its survivors, Uncle Lebo, until one day there is an accident, and he is forced to leave. Returning to Terezn many years later, he joins Lebo's campaign to preserve the town, but before long the authorities impose a brutal crack-down, chaos ensues, and the narrator finds himself fleeing to Belarus, where fresh horrors drive him ever closer to the evils he had hoped to escape. Bold, brilliant and blackly comic, The Devil's Workshop paints a deeply troubling portrait of two countries dealing with their ghosts and asks: at what point do we consign the past to history?
