Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the endlessly hot summer of 1980, newspaper reporter Daniel Palmer finally gets his chance to do an investigation of what could possibly be a once-in-a-lifetime story. The only problem is he has to go undercover to do it. Palmer goes to work at a train-wrecking yard in efforts to find out why multiple supposedly accidental deaths have occurred in a very short period. Initial reports seem fruitless, and the tough physical work makes Palmer ready to call it quits almost immediately. When his boss makes him feel guilty for giving up so easily, he decides maybe he should give things another chance before throwing in the towel. Sooner than he knows it, he finds himself in the lion's den and deep into a seemingly unsolvable mystery that includes death right before his eyes, which creates additional trouble for him and his co-workers while trying to get to the truth. Palmer now knows in his heart that all these supposed accidents may be a cover-up for something much larger. His only chance at confirmation is to trust the people around him. But who can he trust and who must he avoid? If the hard work doesn't kill him first, opening up to the wrong person or persons might. Through a series of sheer luck and relentless fortitude, Palmer sees an opportunity and goes for it. Is the answer to all he is fighting for really there? Who can help him, and who will certainly hurt him? Will he live to write the story he was assigned, or will he become part of a story that will never be told?
Download or read book Steel Toes written by Eddie Little and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2002-11-09 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eddie Little, author of the hit Another Day in Paradise and who The New York Times describes as "Reminiscent of Hunter Thompson and William Burroughs," is back with a new gripping crime novel. Little writes about the world he used to inhabit, a place filled with drugs, crime and danger at every turn. His electrifying prose brings to life the rough, raw, and seedy life of Boston's underworld where corruption lies at the heart of every deception. Bobbie is a young criminal prodigy. Living in Boston he's approached by a mysterious Greek on behalf of an anonymous shipping tycoon, who wants to commission a theft. The Fogg museum is the target; a collection of ancient Greek coins the score. Everything goes fine with the burglary, but with easy street just around the corner Bobbie's life takes an unexpected twist and his big score evaporates. With his life on the line, Bobbie must learn who he can trust when trusting anyone can make you lose everything. Steel Toes is as close to reality as fiction can get. Little draws you in with his knife sharp writing, his authentic and unflinching characters and plot as tight and strong as the hold of addiction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have we become hypocrites? We learned the message of peace, love, joy, happiness, charity, and forgiveness at the fronts of our churches, mosques, and temples, but do we heed the teachings? I am happy to write this book with an open mind and without pity, to try to help people understand the simplicity of life as it was given to us many years ago. It speaks of our powers and how complex life has become through the manipulations of governing bodies and corporations. This book talks of ways we can achieve peace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My name is John Taylor. I’m a PI for hire in the Nightside, the dark and corrupt city within the city of London. Where the sun never shines and where pleasure and horror are always on sale—for the right price. Not a nice place to visit or a nice place to live. So you wouldn’t think I would care that it was about to be destroyed, by none other than my very own long-missing, not-quite-human mom. But I do. I was born here, I live here, and I got friends here. They might not all be acceptable in polite company, but they’re my friends, nonetheless. I know that I’m the only one who can stop her. The trick is, how to do it without fulfilling this prophecy that says whatever action I take, not only is the Nightside doomed, but the rest of the world will soon follow…

Download or read book The Boy from County Hell written by Thomas Pluck and published by Down & Out Books. This book was released on 2021-11-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jay Desmarteaux raised a whole lot of hell in New Jersey after he was released from prison after 25 years for the murder of a rapist bully at his school. Now he’s on the run in his home state of Louisiana, where he traces his roots to an evil family tree that’s grown large and lush, watered with the blood of the innocent. Jay’s hunt for his parents will take him to the doors of stately plantation homes built by the enslaved, through the deadly and gorgeous heart of the bayou, to his greatest nightmare—a cell in the infamous state prison, where his only escape is the wildest show in the South—the Angola Prison Rodeo. Scarred and shell-shocked, Jay Desmarteaux faces his deadliest adversaries yet: the demons within himself and the brutality wrought by his privileged ancestors. The Boy from County Hell is coming home... Praise for THE BOY FROM COUNTY HELL: “Thomas Pluck’s The Boy From County Hell is raucous and rollicking, just like The Pogues song it adapts its name from. There are echoes of James Lee Burke, Barry Gifford, and Joe R. Lansdale, but Pluck’s book burns hot and bright with its own indomitable punk spirit. Joyous, wild, dark fun.” —William Boyle, author of City of Margins, A Friend Is a Gift You Give Yourself, The Lonely Witness, and Gravesend “Blistering, violent, and written with Technicolor flourishes that are Pluck’s unmistakable signature. The Boy from County Hell is a hell of a book.” —Laird Barron, author of Swift to Chase “Pluck has crafted a hard-charging thriller that stomps the pedal from page one and never lets up. Crackling with exciting characters and language that pops off the page, The Boy From County Hell is a mad tale of rage, retribution, and no small helping of heart and soul. I loved it.” —Bill Loehfelm, author of the Maureen Coughlin series “Wow. The Boy from County Hell by Thomas Pluck is as wild as a night in a cage with an amorous monkey. So smart and tense and relentless. Pluck decides on his premise, and stays true to it until the rowdy end, but the real star here is his control of style, both hardboiled and poetic at the same time. Impressed.” —Joe R. Lansdale" “The Boy from County Hell is a harrowing and at times deeply philosophical journey through the heart of rage. Thomas Pluck is our trustworthy tour guide through that undiscovered country. With deft prose and an eye towards redemption and revelation Pluck accomplishes an amazing feat. We find ourselves feeling sympathy for the boy from county Hell” —SA. Cosby, New York Times bestselling author of Razorblade Tears
