Then he started touching her in ways she didn't like. When she was twelve, he raped her. The next twenty years were filled with harrowing abuse as McDarby continued to rape Mary, leading to the birth of five of her children.

Against the odds she created a safe place for her children and reclaimed her life. This is Mary's inspirational story of courage and survival.

Download or read book That Old Scoundrel Death written by Bill Crider and published by Minotaur Books. This book was released on 2019-02-19 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beloved Texas Sheriff Dan Rhodes is back with his final murder case in That Old Scoundrel Death. When a man is run off the road by a thug with a snake tattooed around his neck, Sheriff Dan Rhodes knows it's his duty to stop and help out. The grateful victim gives his name as Cal Stinson, on his way to the nearby town of Thurston to take a look at the old school building before the city tears it down. The next day, Cal Stinson turns up again. Only this time, he's dead. His body is found in the dilapidated school that's about to be razed, and the woman who let Cal onto the premises claims he gave his name as Bruce Wayne. Whoever is he is, he was shot in the back of the head, and a piece of chalk lies inches away from his hand, under a lone line on the chalkboard, his last words unfinished. Between not-so-bright hoodlums who can't seem to stay on the right side of the law, powerful families in town who are ready to go to battle over whether the old school should come down, and trying futilely to get private detective Seepy Benton to stop making mountains of mole hills, Sheriff Rhodes is beginning to wonder if retirement might be as good as it sounds.

Download or read book The 4D Printed Apocalypse written by Vlad Stoiculescu and published by Mondofy. This book was released on 2020-10-16 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rejected suicide application, an insight from the devil's image consultant, and the ramblings of the dog who wiped out humanity. In other words, a brief collection of endings, penned by the ones who made them happen. Affectionately dubbed by their author „corporate sci-fi”, the stories in The 4D Printed Apocalypse are a blend of office humor, the absurd, and science fiction. While their genre may hit home with amateurs of magical realism and soft sci-fi fans, their topics will likely land on any conoisseur of the mundane. Penned between 2012 and 2016, these stories have never been officially published before, only reaching the awards and honorable mentions lists of a few UK and US competitions. Why now? Because the vanity of corporate life and tone-deaf songs of social media have reached their peak. And also, because the Apocalypse is slowly becoming a historical event.

The good news is that Jean and Pat Abbott are present to solve this fiendishly complex murder puzzle set in San Francisco.
