Download or read book The Georgia Davis Thrillers 1 6 BOX SET written by Libby Fischer Hellmann and published by The Red Herrings Press. This book was released on 2023-07-07 with total page 1205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Georgia Davis made her first appearance, a cameo really, in the second Ellie Foreman novel, A Picture of Guilt. She was a cop then. I expanded her role in An Image of Death (Ellie #3). I knew by then that one day she would have her own series—I just had to wait for the right story. That story was Easy Innocence, her first case as a Private Investigator. It's about high school girls and how far they will go to be accepted by their peers. Georgia is cautious. She's a loner, and she has baggage. While Ellie would love to go out to lunch with and give you TMI about herself, Georgia won't take a lunch break. The Ellie books have a dry sense of humor (at least I hope so), but the Georgia books? Not so much—Georgia is a serious person. She is driven partly by injustice, partly by her childhood, and partly because she can't bear to see people , especially young women, in pain. Georgia has plenty of stories to tell, and six of them make up this series, all set in Chicago and the suburbs. They’re darker than the Ellie books, because Georgia is a darker personality. Abandoned by her mother when she was young, her alcoholic father raised her with a stern hand. In fact, Georgia's arc over the series has been to “lighten up,” forgive, and find the joy she so richly deserves. Watch her develop her PI skills, and her humanity in The Georgia Davis PI Series. If you love Tess Gerritsen, Karin Slaughter, and Lisa Gardner, you'll love Libby Hellmann, author of Compulsively Readable Thrillers. * Get the first Georgia Davis thriller, Easy Innocence, FREE.

Even one that risks far more than her career. WHO IS ELLIE FOREMAN? If you’re just meeting me, hello. I’m Ellie Foreman and I produce documentary films and videos in Chicago. People tell me I’m too curious for my own good, because I sometimes investigate crimes and murders as well. The problem is that in each of the 6 thrillers, the suspense ramps up and puts me in life-threatening situations. Or, as has happened, my daughter’s or my father’s life is jeopardized. I cherish my family and promised them that in the future I would walk away from a case if anything remotely smelled dangerous. I tried. I really did. It didn't work. I can’t understand why they don’t believe me. "A masterful blend of history, politics, and suspense. Publishers Weekly It might be because of the 6 novels in this Box Set. When you read them, you’ll discover, along with me, secrets from the past that have affected the present. You’ll question suspects from Chicago to Eastern Europe and China, and travel from the plush corridors of the Greenbrier Resort to Chicago’s Lawndale, once ground zero for riots. In each story you’ll find nail-biting suspense along with my dry sense of humor… you'll stay up way too late, unable to rest until you too know who “did it.” "Complicated, Fascinating. Hellmann has a beautifully tuned ear... which makes many of her scenes seriously funny." Chicago Tribune I hope you’ll find, as I do, that my friends, like Susan and Fouad, are the balm every woman needs to keep her balance, both physical and mental. And I hope you’ll share the unconditional love I feel for my daughter and my father. My ex-husband? Not so much. When you’ve finished the Box Set, let me know. We can go out to lunch and… talk. I won’t try to talk you into anything dangerous. Really. I promise. Enjoy the 6 Ellie Foreman Mysteries from Award-winning author of Compulsively Readable Thrillers, Libby Fischer Hellmann.

Teaming up with her detective boyfriend Matt and his friend Detective Sergeant John Stone, Georgia must work out who’s responsible for the killings, but there’s little evidence to go on. The case tests the strength of Georgia’s relationship with Matt—complicating the situation is the daughter of a real estate mogul, who happens to have her eye on Matt.

Rye Mallett, a fearless "freight dog" pilot charged with flying cargo to far-flung locations, is rough-spoken and all business, but soft on regulations when they get in the way of meeting a deadline. But above all, he has a rock-solid reputation: he will fly in the foulest weather, day or night, and deliver the goods safely to their destination. So when Rye is asked to fly into a completely fogbound northern Georgia town and deliver a mysterious black box to a Dr. Lambert, he doesn't ask questions. As Rye's plane nears the isolated landing strip, more trouble than inclement weather awaits him. Greeted with a sabotage attempt on his plane, he has barely recovered from the crash landing when he meets Dr. Brynn O'Neal, who claims she is receiving the box for Dr. Lambert. Though he has a strict "no-involvement policy" when it comes to others' problems, Rye finds himself being irresistibly drawn in to the intrigue surrounding his cargo . . . and to the mysterious and alluring Brynn. Soon Rye and Brynn are in a treacherous forty-eight-hour race to deliver the box. With everyone from law enforcement officials to hired guns hot on their heels, they must learn to trust each other to protect their valuable cargo from those who would kill for it.

Download or read book Johnny Mercer written by Glenn T. Eskew and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2013-11-15 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Herndon “Johnny” Mercer (1909–76) remained in the forefront of American popular music from the 1930s through the 1960s, writing over a thousand songs, collaborating with all the great popular composers and jazz musicians of his day, working in Hollywood and on Broadway, and as cofounder of Capitol Records, helping to promote the careers of Nat “King” Cole, Margaret Whiting, Peggy Lee, and many other singers. Mercer’s songs—sung by Bing Crosby, Billie Holiday, Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Lena Horne, and scores of other performers—are canonical parts of the great American songbook. Four of his songs received Academy Awards: “Moon River,” “Days of Wine and Roses,” “On the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe,” and “In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening.” Mercer standards such as “Hooray for Hollywood” and “You Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby” remain in the popular imagination. Exhaustively researched, Glenn T. Eskew’s biography improves upon earlier popular treatments of the Savannah, Georgia–born songwriter to produce a sophisticated, insightful, evenhanded examination of one of America’s most popular and successful chart-toppers. Johnny Mercer: Southern Songwriter for the World provides a compelling chronological narrative that places Mercer within a larger framework of diaspora entertainers who spread a southern multiracial culture across the nation and around the world. Eskew contends that Mercer and much of his music remained rooted in his native South, being deeply influenced by the folk music of coastal Georgia and the blues and jazz recordings made by black and white musicians. At Capitol Records, Mercer helped redirect American popular music by commodifying these formerly distinctive regional sounds into popular music. When rock ’n’ roll diminished opportunities at home, Mercer looked abroad, collaborating with international composers to create transnational songs. At heart, Eskew says, Mercer was a jazz musician rather than a Tin Pan Alley lyricist, and the interpenetration of jazz and popular song that he created expressed elements of his southern heritage that made his work distinctive and consistently kept his music before an approving audience.
