He was going to be a famous bass player and had just been nominated to play with an elite group of musicians at Carnegie Hall. Then he touches his best friend, Connor's, vintage record album. Suddenly, he's seeing through someone else's eyes. He finds himself in a room hazy with smoke, carpeted in frayed red shag, and paneled in dark wood. He's holding the album cover, but Connor has vanished and a girl wearing a blue tie-dye t-shirt is sitting in front of him on the floor. She's sobbing, uncontrollably. Connor's album has opened a conduit to the girl in the tie-dye shirt and, now, she won't leave him alone. Each time Liam sees her, she's more upset and insistent; looming large in his vision, sobbing, and reaching out to him. She's preventing him from doing the things he loves and he can't get rid of her.Thinking he may be losing his mind, Liam confides in his sister and close group of misfit friends. With the help of a local shop owner, an expert in all things woo-woo, they soon discover that Liam has developed a psychic power - psychometry, the ability to pick up impressions of people or events by touching an object. The last thing Liam wants is a special power and he's desperate to get his life back. The group decides that the only solution is to figure out who the girl is and what she wants from him. They follow the one clue they have: the name Greg Ortman, neatly printed on the album cover. When they ultimately find the man they're seeking, the Misfits must risk their lives to save another and release Liam from the hold of the Girl in the Blue Tie-Dye Shirt.

Download or read book The Girl in the Polka Dot Dress written by Guy Cote and published by World Castle Publishing, LLC. This book was released on 2024-01-02 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early morning hours of June 5, 1968, The Girl in the Polka-Dot Dress ran down a fire escape, exclaiming, “We shot him! We shot him!” “Who?” asked a witness. “We’ve shot Senator Kennedy.” 2018 – Fifty Years Later. Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney Frank Caron is enjoying a highpoint in his career and the excitement of his new relationship with Sasha Frye. An amateur hypnotist, Sasha convinces him to let her treat his mother’s dementia with hypnotherapy. It’s supposed to do wonders for dementia-sufferers, but it backfires. Horribly. Under hypnosis, his mother makes a most unusual comment. “I don’t like this dress,” she says. “But I have to wear it for him to die. And Robert Kennedy must die.” Frank is stunned. So is Sasha. What are they supposed to make of a comment like that? Can their new relationship handle the burden of learning such a shocking revelation? One thing is for certain: neither can ignore it. What they do separately ignites the fire of ambition in Frank’s over-zealous boss, the District Attorney. It upends the California legal system. And it reawakens an evil that didn’t stop then – and won’t stop now – to keep its secrets hidden. Through it all, there’s one burning question Frank must have answered: was his mother a conspirator in the assassination of Senator Robert F. Kennedy? What he learns is far more than a simple yes or no.

Book excerpt: In 1970s Cincinnati, Kim’s overwhelmed, financially stressed parents dragged her and her four younger siblings into swimming—starting with a nearby motel pool—as a way to keep them occupied and out of their way. When Kim was eleven, they began leaving the kids at home with a sitter while they traveled the Midwest, where they sold imported wooden ornaments from their motorhome. But when Kim’s six-year-old brother crashed his new Cheater Slick bike and the babysitter deserted the children, what started as an accident became a pattern: Mom and Dad leaving for weeks at a time and the kids wrestling with life’s emergencies on their own. As Kim coped in the role of fill-in mother while dealing with the stresses of elite swimming, she struggled to shape her own life. She eventually found strength, competence and achievement through swimming—and became the second female swimmer to win a full ride to the University of Southern California, where she earned two national titles. Swimming for My Life is a peek into the dark side of elite swimming as well as a tale of family bonds, reconciling with the past, and how it is possible to emerge from life’s toxic and lifesaving waters.

Download or read book Turning Blue written by Lawrence Hoffman and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2016-01-26 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a kid growing up on Long Island, I struggled with an unknown psychological need to wear a uniform and a strong desire to be a part of an organization. My search would take me through Little League, Cub Scouts, and various fraternal organizations. This desire would only be fulfilled after joining the NYPD in February of 1984. Somewhere during my twenty-year career, I was transformed from that kid into a veteran New York City police detective. This is my evolution from a middle-class suburban kid with simple values who naively thought the “projects” were a homework assignment into a veteran detective working in some of the most unforgiving neighborhoods of New York City. With this transformation comes the ability to separate the daily exposure to the dark side of human nature from your own life-sustaining core beliefs. Many will fail to acquire this ability and fall victim to drugs, alcohol, divorce, crime, and even suicide. This is a process which I have come to call Turning Blue. This is my story of how I dealt with life-changing experiences at home while my gun belt and uniform hung safely in my locker. In my twenty years of experience as a police officer, I can honestly say that I have been scared and feared for my life. Could you go back to work after crying yourself to sleep, reliving your partner’s screams as he lay bleeding to death in the backseat of your unmarked car, and the only thing keeping your heart in your chest was your department-issued bulletproof vest?
