Book excerpt: Burke is one of the most cold-blooded yet strangely honorable heroes in the history of crime fiction, an outlaw who makes his living by preying on the most vicious of New York City’s bottom-feeders, those who thrive on the suffering of children. In Andrew Vachss’s tautly engrossing novel Burke is given a purse full of dirty money to find the infamous Ghost Van that is cutting a lethal swath among the teenage prostitutes in the ‘hood. He also gets help in the form of a stripper named Belle, whose moves on the runway are outclassed only by what she can do in a getaway car. But not even Burke is prepared for the evil that is behind the Ghost Van or for the sheer menace of its guardian, a cadaverous karate expert who enjoys killing so much that he has named himself after death.

Download or read book La Belle Cr ole written by Alina García-Lapuerta and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The adventurous woman nicknamed La Belle Créole is brought to life in this book through the full use of her memoirs, contemporary accounts, and her intimate letters. The fascinating María de las Mercedes Santa Cruz y Montalvo, also known as Mercedes, and later the Comtesse Merlin, was a Cuban-born aristocrat who was years ahead of her time as a writer, a socialite, a salon host, and a participant in the Cuban slavery debate. Raised in Cuba and shipped off to live with her socialite mother in Spain at the age of 13, Mercedes triumphed over the political chaos that blanketed Europe in the Napoleonic days, by charming aristocrats from all sides with her exotic beauty and singing voice. She married General Merlin in Napoleon's army and discussed painting with Francisco de Goya. In Paris she hosted the city's premier musical salon where Liszt, Rossini, and great divas of the day performed for Rothschilds, Balzac, and royalty. Celebrated as one of the greatest amateur sopranos of her day, Mercedes also achieved fame as a writer. Her memoirs and travel writings introduced European audiences to 19th-century Cuban society and contributed to the debate over slavery. Mercedes has recently been rediscovered as Cuba's earliest female author and one who deserves a place in the canon of Latin American literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some ghosts can be too friendly. Karo Follett left her career in a blaze of glorious rage, ditching both work and its attendant philandering plagiarist, her boyfriend, for a job restoring the Belle Ange plantation in Virginia. On the way, inspiration struck like... well, like lightning. "Melanie Jackson has a truly awe-inspiring imagination... and writes romance for those with a yen for something different." -RT Book Reviews A billion volts can be eye opening, but an even bigger shock is on its way. Karo can now see spirits-and what a spirit! Hugh Vellacourt, the original owner of Belle Ange, was eighteenth-century America's answer to the Marquis de Sade. (She's not exactly sure what de Sad was asking.) Kinky, snarky, twisted, lonely... his fantasyland in the attic is like nothing she's ever seen, and his sense of humor requires Karo get together with her whimsical irreverent, to-die-for boss-a work relationship, which she's sworn off forever. Romance is in the air, but has it got more than a ghost of a chance?
