Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kartoon. A city of undercurrents. A city plunged into darkness. A city on the edge of insanity. A serial killer is on the loose. A city of shadows. To examine a murder scene is to look only at a shadow of what happened, and the shadow of the killer. The target are police. The killer is successful. Confusing clues. A dancer in adult’s only nightclub a person of interest. The dancers wear masks. The killer’s face unknown. The only witness to a kill in a dark alley recalls ‘a very sexy ass’. The killer is unpredictably inventive and appears to be in two places at the same time. Buildings large teams of police enter in the hunt for the killer tend to explode. Carnage. Yet it seems an unfortunate accident. The police death toll starts looking like a war casualty list. Mayhem. Identifying the ‘very sexy ass’ among shapely young dancers in adult's only clubs not easy. Even in the face of an elaborate trap the killer proves elusive. Suspense from beginning to end as pieces of the puzzle became less easy to fit together. An explosive climax.

At twenty-five, he succeeds in a brilliant escape and change of identity and begins to move across the country, murdering women in particularly gruesome ways. Pursued by reporters, police, and the mob, Bishop manages to elude them all, and the search for him becomes the greatest manhunt in US history.The chilling denouement will hold readers spellbound until the shattering, unforgettable conclusion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Beginning at the edge of the internet age, a time when radical zine culture prefigured social networking sites, these timely writings paint an illuminated trail through a complex labyrinth of undocumented migrants, anarchist community organizers, brilliant visionary artists, revolutionary seed savers, punk rock historians, social justice farmers, radical mental health activists, and iconoclastic bridge builders. This book is a document of one person’s odyssey to transform his experiences navigating the psychiatric system by building community in the face of adversity; a set of maps for how rebels and dreamers can survive and thrive in a crazy world.
