Download or read book Jack Be Quick written by Donald A. Moses and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-10 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sociopathic individuals are rampant in our society. They can be likeable people, who we are inclined to trust as they are able to hide their distain and disregard for others. In Jack Be Quick, I have used my psychiatric expertise to create characters who fit the sociopathic profile and initially leave the other characters, and therefore the readers, confused as to their true personality and motivations. Michael Marshall, a wealthy and obviously unscrupulous industrialist, is murdered. A short time later, his widow, Jill, comes to see Dr. Daniel Cooper, a psychiatrist, ostensibly to help her overcome her depression resulting from her husband's murder. Jill expresses doubts to Dr. Cooper, and eventually to Captain Jack DeAngelis, head of the homicide division, as to whether Michael's death was murder with robbery as the motive. Initially, no one suspects that Jill, an attractive woman of apparent refinement, could be guilty of duplicity in the murder. Through many twists and turns, including the murders of Marshall's accountant and private banker, the involvement of the mob, and the smuggling of drugs, the involvement of Jill becomes clear. Her sociopathic ability to worm her way out of this dilemma fools even the best detectives, but perhaps not the most cunning reader? Jack Be Quick is a murder mystery as well as an intriguing study about the complexities of the human mind.

He was on the other side of the world involved in a grueling black ops mission for Iniquus Corporation at the behest of the US government. Mission fail meant a special flight home, and an ambulance ride to the hospital where Suz should have been waiting for him. Devastated by Jack's last death-defying act of heroism, life quickly takes a turn for the worse for Suz. Terrorists attack the school where Suz teaches first-grade. Suz saves her students' lives, but her own moment of heroism leads the terrorists to believe she is a CIA operative. Suz is taken hostage. When Jack rouses from his surgery to find Suz missing, he knows something is very wrong. Led by the psychic "knowings" of his Iniquus colleague, Lynx, Jack risks everything as he desperately tries to reach Suz in time to thwart the terrorists' plot and save her. This time, his mission is for more than love of country; it's for the love of his life - his heart and soul.

Download or read book Trans written by Jack Halberstam and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title is part of American Studies Now and available as an e-book first. Visit ucpress.edu/go/americanstudiesnow to learn more. In the last decade, public discussions of transgender issues have increased exponentially. However, with this increased visibility has come not just power, but regulation, both in favor of and against trans people. What was once regarded as an unusual or even unfortunate disorder has become an accepted articulation of gendered embodiment as well as a new site for political activism and political recognition. What happened in the last few decades to prompt such an extensive rethinking of our understanding of gendered embodiment? How did a stigmatized identity become so central to U.S. and European articulations of self? And how have people responded to the new definitions and understanding of sex and the gendered body? In Trans*, Jack Halberstam explores these recent shifts in the meaning of the gendered body and representation, and explores the possibilities of a nongendered, gender-optional, or gender-queer future.
