Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enjoy this Small-Town Murder Mystery Featuring A Unique Sleuthing Couple It’s an eventful October for Father Tom and Helen. It begins with the wedding of Father Tom’s mother Nola to her fiance, former strip club owner Stu Landry. The two septuagenarian newlyweds have no sooner embarked on their honeymoon than Saint Clare’s Parish plays host to the Cardinal Archbishop of Baltimore Walter Knowland, making his periodic visit. It should be a welcome homecoming for the Cardinal, who spent his high school years in Myerton. But there’s a cloud hovering over the visit. A special state grand jury issued a report, documenting decades of sexual abuse in the Archdiocese. While the report makes clear that the Archdiocese under Cardinal Knowland has mended its ways, he’s bearing the brunt of the criticism. He’s also received death threats. With this in mind, Helen assigns her newest officer Gwen Tolson–who also happens to be the Cardinal’s granddaughter–to his security detail. During a tour of the Unclaimed Blessings Thrift Store, a large urn falls from a loft, narrowly missing the Cardinal and injuring Gwen. That combined with the firebombing of the Archbishop’s Residence in Baltimore convinces Helen that he’s in danger. She begins to hunt for the person responsible. But then an elderly volunteer at the thrift store, Eliza Ross, is murdered. At first it looks like a robbery gone wrong. But it’s soon clear to Helen that someone staged the scene to make it look like a robbery. This raises two questions: who’d want to kill her, and why? In the midst of all this, Gladys goes into labor early . . . and one of the triplets may not make it . . . The Cardinal’s Clock is the fourteenth novel in the Mercy and Justice Mysteries, a contemporary small town mystery series. The series is a sequel to the Father Tom Mysteries that began with The Penitent Priest and includes the same cast of characters. It features Father Tom Greer, a Catholic Priest who is also an amateur sleuth in the tradition of Father Brown, and his wife Helen Greer, female Chief of Police and detective in the tradition of Kinsey Millhone.

Book excerpt: An “absorbing . . . magnificent” novel about an ordinary Irish Catholic man who ascends the church hierarchy to become Cardinal in the early twentieth century. (Boston Herald) A selection of the Literary Guild, The Cardinal was published in more than a dozen languages and sold over two million copies. Later made into an Academy Award-nominated film directed by Otto Preminger and starring John Huston, the book tells a story that captured the nation's attention: a working-class American's rise to become a cardinal of the Catholic Church. The daily trials and triumphs of Stephen Fermoyle, from the working-class suburbs of Boston, drive him to become first a parish priest, then secretary to a cardinal, later a bishop, and finally a wearer of the Red Hat. An essential work of American fiction that remains even more relevant today. “Extraordinary . . . controversial . . . first rate storytelling and characterization that has enormous appeal.” –Kirkus Reviews

Book Bears vs  Cardinals

Download or read book Bears vs Cardinals written by Joe Ziemba and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2022-08-31 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In their early years, the Chicago Bears and the Chicago Cardinals-- the two oldest teams in the National Football League --travelled the country with only rare mention in the newspapers. Both teams later saw their official records destroyed by fire. Most of what is now known about those initial seasons is based on often inaccurate statements made many years later. Reconstructing their missing history, this book draws on newly available resources to document the battles and brawls on and off the field, the cunning backroom deals, the financial woes and the 40-year rivalry that endured while both teams were in Chicago. Figures like Al Capone, Red Grange, Jim Thorpe and Bronko Nagurski make appearances in the lore of two old adversaries whose uneasy alliance helped ensure the survival of the fledgling NFL.

Book I Was in Prison with Cardinal Mindszenty

Download or read book I Was in Prison with Cardinal Mindszenty written by Fr. John Szabo and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2017-07-11 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells of the personal experiences by Father John Szabo, who spent five years in prison alongside Cardinal József Mindszenty (29 March 1892 - 6 May 1975), who was the Prince Primate, Archbishop of Esztergom, cardinal, and leader of the Catholic Church in Hungary from 2 October 1945 to 18 December 1973. For five decades, Cardinal Mindszenty “personified uncompromising opposition to fascism and communism in Hungary.” He was imprisoned by the pro-Nazi Arrow Cross Party during World War II and, after the war, opposed communism and the communist persecution in his country. As a result, he was tortured and given a life sentence in a 1949 show trial that generated worldwide condemnation, including a United Nations resolution. After eight years in prison, he was freed in the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and granted political asylum by the United States embassy in Budapest, where Mindszenty lived for the next fifteen years. He was finally allowed to leave the country in 1971. He died in exile in 1975 in Vienna, Austria. “In simple, understandable language, he has told in his own words of the harrowing experiences, of suffering, of bravery and death. The author’s style is intriguing in its directness and conversational approach.”—Brantley Burcham, Foreword
