"Let's have a look-in while we're here, and see what a bag o' tricks these stunt flyers are holdin' up their sleeves, so's to give this crowd a row o' thrills." "Suits me, Perk; no great hurry about our jumping off, so long as we pull the gun before dark sets in." "Shucks! little difference it makes on a patch as well lighted as this Candler Field o' your home city, old boy; and with a flashlight beacon set every ten miles all the way down to Orleans, to keep us on our course. Look at that guy fairly burning the air like hot cakes-he must be tryin' to beat the speed record, I guess, Jack."

Book excerpt: In the first book of the series, readers will learn about God’s sovereignty and how things work together for good. The Exciting Start of the Last Chance Detectives! A dry, forsaken blip on the edge of civilization. That’s what Mike Fowler thinks of the little town of Ambrosia in the Arizona desert. He has no friends, no fun, and no answers to the agonizing disappearance of his dad in a top-secret military mission. But that could all change after Mike stumbles onto his dad’s puzzling journal in the old B-17 out back. The mysterious coded entries in the journal lead him to a hidden canyon rimmed with strange lights in the sky, muffled voices, and a knife he’s sure belongs to his dad! Something big—maybe a covert military operation—is going on in that secluded canyon. And Mike is sure if he just follows the clues, he’ll find his dad. But with each new discovery, he and his daring companions—Ben, Spence, and Winnie—land in more and more danger. It’s the case of their young lives. Now if only they only live to escape it!

Download or read book True Detectives written by Jonathan Kellerman and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2009-03-24 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Jonathan Kellerman’s gripping novels, the city of Los Angeles is as much a living, breathing character as the heroes and villains who roam its labyrinthine streets. Sunny on the surface but shadowy beneath, this world of privilege and pleasure has a dark core and a dangerous edge. In True Detectives, Kellerman skillfully brings his renowned gifts for breathless suspense and sharp psychological insight to a tale that resonates on every level and satisfies at every turn. Bound by blood but divided by troubles as old as Cain and Abel, Moses Reed and Aaron Fox were first introduced in Kellerman’s bestselling Bones. They are sons of the same strong-willed mother, and their respective fathers were cops, partners, and friends. Their turbulent family history has set them at odds, despite their shared calling. Moses—part Boy Scout, part bulldog, man of few words—is a no-frills LAPD detective. Aaron, sharp dresser and smooth operator, is an ex-cop turned high-end private eye. Usually they go their separate ways. But the disappearance of Caitlin Frostig isn’t usual. For Moses, it’s an ice-cold mystery he just can’t outrun, even with the help of psychologist Alex Delaware and detective Milo Sturgis. For Aaron, it’s a billable-hours bonanza from his most lucrative client. Like it or not, Moses and Aaron are in this one together–and the rivalry that rules them won’t let either man quit till the case is cracked. A straight-arrow, straight-A student from Malibu, Caitlin has only two men in her life: her sullen single father and her wholesome college sweetheart, who even the battling brothers agree seems too downright upright to be true. Reluctantly tag-teaming in a desperate search for fresh leads, Moses and Aaron zero in on Caitlin’s white knight as their primary “person of interest,” hoping that, like most people in L.A., he has a secret side. But they uncover more than just a secret as they descend into the sinister, seamy side of the City of Angels after dark, populated by a Hollywood Babylon cast of the glamorous and the damned: a millionaire movie director turned hatemongering eccentric; a desperate Beverly Hills housewife looking for an exit from the fast lane; a heartthrob actor being eaten alive by personal demons; a hooker who’s probably seen it all . . . and might just know too much. And at the center, a dead young woman whose downward spiral and brutal end loom over Moses and Aaron like an omen of what may come to be if the dark end of the street claims another lost soul.

Download or read book The Detective O Malley MEGAPACK written by William MacHarg and published by Wildside Press LLC. This book was released on 2017-11-29 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume collects 21 stories featuring Detective O'Malley from the pages of Collier's. They date from 1930 through the early 1940s. William MacHarg's title character is a lot of fun and sure to appeal to fans of classic puzzle mysteries. Of the series (which numbers about 80 stories), Mike Grost wrote: "The brief tales are heavily plot oriented. Some of them have mystery puzzle plots, in others the killer's identity is simply found through police work. O'Malley puts great emphasis on coming up with ingenious ideas to make the killer confess, or make a damaging admission of guilt; the stories contain numerous gimmicks of this type." Included are: The Green Paint The Ring The Sleeptalker Fingerprints The Fourth Degree In A Mirror The Wrong Hat Soiled Diamonds The Locked Door The High Bridge Too Many Enemies No Fingerprints Too Many Miles Three Bullets The Mind Reader Through The Cabin Window Spilled Perfume Help From Uncle Sam Mrs. Walder's Diamonds City Wise Deceiving Clothes If you enjoy this ebook, don't forget to search your favorite ebook store for "Wildside Press Megapack" to see more of the 400+ volumes in this series, covering adventure, historical fiction, mysteries, westerns, ghost stories, science fiction—and much, much more!
