Download or read book A Collection of Nightmares Dreams written by Ken Dube and published by Ken Dube. This book was released on 2024-08-04 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection features a series of short stories penned over the years. They draw inspiration from my formative years immersed in eerie television shows movies, comic books, and British satire. Some aim to deliver that spine-tingling twist at the finale, while others offer contemplative reflections on life. Despite their diverse styles and tones, they coalesce into a tapestry of nightmares and dreams, awaiting interpretation during your waking hours. I divided the collection into two parts, nightmares and dreams. Like my novels, the stories border on the surreal. As my short stories later led to writing novels, they may have in common a character's name, dream sequences, and painting/creativity coming to life.

Download or read book SOUR CANDY written by Kealan Patrick Burke and published by Kealan Patrick Burke. This book was released on 2015-11-13 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At first glance, Phil Pendleton and his son Adam are just an ordinary father and son, no different from any other. They take walks in the park together, visit county fairs, museums, and zoos, and eat together overlooking the lake. Some might say the father is a little too accommodating given the lack of discipline when the child loses his temper in public. Some might say he spoils his son by allowing him to set his own bedtimes and eat candy whenever he wants. Some might say that such leniency is starting to take its toll on the father, given how his health has declined. What no one knows is that Phil is a prisoner, and that up until a few weeks ago and a chance encounter at a grocery store, he had never seen the child before in his life. A novella from the Bram Stoker Award-winning author of THE TURTLE BOY and KIN.

Download or read book Hoover s Nightmare written by Wade Shirley and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-05-20 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In creating the world’s premier law enforcement agency, J. Edgar Hoover built a gigantic bureaucratic machine resembling a slow-moving freight train, which was kept on his undeviating track by volumes of manuals containing rules and regulations beyond imagination. Each car of this lumbering snakelike apparatus had a function, but fastened loosely to the rear was a lonely straggling caboose known as the One-man Resident Agent. Hoover and his sycophants in the corner offices on Pennsylvania Avenue hated the concept of the one-man office and looked at them as necessary evils. They were needed to get the work done but hated as they were too far removed to be effectively micromanaged, and as they were out of sight, they were wrongly assumed to be screwing off. Hoover’s Nightmare: A Special Agent Gone Native is like no other book ever written from within the ranks of the FBI. Penned as a novel to allow the author flexibility, the reader is taken on an exciting, informative, dramatic, and often humorous journey through a part of US history that is, unfortunately, rapidly being swallowed up and lost down the memory hole of time. As the reader travels with the main character, Agent McWade, he will experience Indian wars, crazy kidnapping scenarios, Behavioral Science Unit experiences, unimaginable sex crimes, heart-wrenching tragedy, and a host of other unparalleled real-life cases. All this through the eyes of the agent who became Hoover’s nightmare. Read and enjoy the book that took the FBI well over a year to approve and allow to be published.

Book excerpt: “Candy, why is your bed so big?” “… to fit my two boyfriends when we snuggle together at night.” Only that’s my father asking, staring at the bed in question. Oops. So yeah. Unruly Jethro and cocky Joel are now officially my boyfriends. My Candy Boys. I moved in with them, and I expected things to be tense, awkward. I was wrong. This feels so right, and well, hot. These boys are SO hot. But with college starting, Jethro returning to work at the bookshop, and Joel planning to start his own business, everything’s shifting. Not to forget the fact that Joel still hasn’t confronted his parents about our relationship, that Jethro is still recovering from his dad’s brutal attack, and that I feel insecure, well… Wait a sec. Insecure? Come on, Candy. That’s BS. These boys love you. Yeah, I know. The boys and me, we’re solid. However, doubt still lingers. I mean, Joel’s parents hate each other. Jethro’s dad killed his mom, for chrissakes—and my mom has acquired a sudden interest in sex toys and escort services. So I wonder if true love really exists. Love that doesn’t fade over time. You know, the kind that withstands nightmares and bad jokes, unwashed dishes in the sink and lack of lube. Yeah, that happened. These boys own me.

Because of an extremely incompetent sheriff and his under-sheriff (the only law in the tiny town), the Tenders, with the aid of an Annie Oakley-wannabe teacher, are left to rescue their buddies before they become additional deadly scenes in the community's nightmare...
