Book excerpt: APRIL, 1861. As the Confederate cannon opens fire on Fort Sumter and the Civil War begins. A rebel officer on a courier run to the telegraph office, is murdered in a historic Charleston graveyard and his pouch of secret despatches stolen. How did he come to be there? Is it the work of a Union spy? Former Charleston Police Inspector and now Confederate Officer, Major Hugo Legare is assigned to the case. Meanwhile the civilian police arrest a young Jewish soldier, Simon Mendoza, and charge him with murder and espionage. The evidence against Mendoza is dangerously strong and anti-Semitic incitement fills the newspapers, feeding the fires of suspicion and bigotry. But Major Legare is not convinced. There are holes in the police case against Mendoza. Legare and his associate, scapegrace Irish nobleman Captain James Redmond, quickly turn up more than a few skeletons in the dead man's closet as well as a plethora of new suspects including a Boston abolitionist, the beautiful daughter of the city's most wealthy citizen, and one of their own brother officers. But while Legare hunts the killer through the gaslit streets of old Charleston, more bodies start piling up. Legare and Redmond must race against time to stop more murders and recover the vital documents which could change the course of the whole war.
Book Synopsis Who Slew Bonnie Blue? by : Elbert Marshall
Download or read book Who Slew Bonnie Blue? written by Elbert Marshall and published by . This book was released on 2014-10-04 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two years after the serial killer, Nomad, terrorized the fictional city of Glamorgan, N.C., Glamorgan Police Department detectives Maxine Mudd and Jeffrey Pitts find themselves investigating the murder of Bonnie Blue, a '70s porno queen who had spent 30-plus years in prison for a murder committed in 1977. During their investigation, Mudd and Pitts find themselves revisiting the “old” murder files to assist them in solving the “new” murder case. In “Who Slew Bonnie Blue?,” author Elbert Marshall writes a “tale of two cities” — flashing back in Book One to 1977 to explore the underbelly of Glamorgan when drugs, sex and X-rated videotapes were the city's criminal foundation. A new character emerges in John Wesley Parrish, who is the Gazette's crime reporter. Parrish finds himself walking a tightrope with the “wrong crowd” — to include penning a movie script entitled “The Xanhedrin Rhapsody” for porno king, Jackson Brown Black, a.k.a. Blackjack; and writing the novel, “Fallen Angel: The True Story of Bonnie Blue,” after Miss Blue is convicted of murder and sentenced to prison.In Book Two, Marshall flashes forward to 2010. Bonnie Blue has served her prison sentence and returns to Glamorgan seeking redemption for her sinful acts. When she is found murdered at a local motel, the Gazette newsroom is abuzz. The new city editor, Evan Parris, assigns his crime writer, Norma Rae Smithers, to interview John Wesley Parrish, who still resides in Glamorgan County and is a successful sci-fi fantasy writer. Parrish commits to an interview — with one condition: Parrish wants Norma Rae to bring Evan and his mother, Penny, with her for the interview. Meanwhile, Detectives Mudd and Pitts stumble on a possible connection between older police department detectives and the 1977 murder case. They begin piecing the puzzle together — right up to a fatal shootout in a cemetery that will leave readers wondering, “What the Hell!” After nearly two years since publishing “Nomad,” Elbert Marshall continues the “Glamorgan Mystery Series” with another whodunit, “Who Slew Bonnie Blue?.” The series began with the publication of “Plotz” in 2011, which was co-authored with Sandy Bruney. Marshall is a former newspaper sportswriter, reporter and editor; therefore, he relies on his 29 years of experience in the newspaper trade to allow the reader a glimpse at the inner workings of the editorial side of the print business. In 1994, he left newspapering to become the executive director of the Anson County (N.C.) Chamber of Commerce, where he served until his retirement in December 2005. In 2001, he partnered with Chamber co-worker Sandy Bruney to form Marshall Bruney Media Consultants, a website development and multimedia consulting firm, until December 2009. He and his wife, Carla, reside in Concord, N.C.
Book Synopsis Emmett Till's Secret Witness by : Bonnie Blue
Download or read book Emmett Till's Secret Witness written by Bonnie Blue and published by . This book was released on 2011-04-08 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emmett Till's Secret Witness is a novelization of my 34 years of research, and rewrites. This work takes an in-depth look at the polarized cultures of 1955 in the North, which represented a degree of acceptance of social change and the South, which struggled to retain the norms of the pre-civil war division between the races. I have sculpted my scholarly work into a credible work of literature. I molded the cultures of Northern Blacks, Southern Black and Southern Whites to give the reader insight into the lives, passions and inner strengh of these different cultures. The purpose is to understand why people from a different culture feel the way that they do and to show that extreme actions against a group of people that can often times, produce the opposite affect of what you were trying to achieve.
Book Synopsis Justice for Bonnie by : Karen Foster
Download or read book Justice for Bonnie written by Karen Foster and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-12-03 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The shocking true crime story of an Alaskan college student’s murder and her mother’s relentless crusade for the truth. When police told Karen Foster that her eighteen-year-old daughter, Bonnie Craig, had died in a hiking accident, she knew the pieces of the investigation just didn’t add up. Bonnie would have never ditched her classes at the University of Alaska to go hiking. And she didn’t drive—so how would she have reached McHugh Creek, miles outside of Anchorage, in the first place? Armed with little more than her own conviction, Karen set out to find the truth behind her daughter’s death. After a long series of false leads and dead ends, it seemed the case would forever go unsolved. Then, after twelve years of public campaigning, private despair, and increasingly tense dealings with the detectives working the case, Karen received an e-mail that would change everything: the system, at long last, had produced a match for the unknown DNA in the case—from a man in a jail all the way across the country. Here is the chilling tale of a mother’s unflagging fight to track down the monster who stole her daughter’s life—and the battle to ensure that he, and others like him, would no longer be able to evade justice.

Book excerpt: Patricia Anne can't imagine why Mary Alice is in such an uproar over her son Ray's new bride. Sunshine Dabbs is Ucute as can be," even if she is a bit unconventional, which should hardly come as a shock to Mary Alicc given that she's the one who raised her boy. But with all her motherly instincts, Mary Alice is sure that this sweet little blonde Barbie doll--who met her son in Bora Bora after she won the trip on Wheel of Fortune--thinks she's found herself a fortune in Ray's hefty wallet. The sisters can't wait to get a look at Sunshine's family, and quite a look it turns out to be. As soon as Meemaw Turkett invites Mary Alice and Patricia Anne into her cozy trailer on the family compound they stumble over a corpse, and Meemaw's best hog butchering knife is stuck in its chest.

No sooner do the Southern sisters discover a common interest in some local art, when they're arguing the artistic merits of some well-coiffured heads at a gallery opening. A few hours later, one of those pretty ladies ends up dead -- with not a hair out of place. The other shows up on Patricia Anne's doorstep dazed, disheveled, and telling a wild tale of a narrow escape from some deadly cuts. Now the sisters are once again combing for clues to catch a killer with a bizarre style in art -- and murder.

Book excerpt: THE YEAR IS 1422. King Henry the Fifth of England, hero of Agincourt and conqueror of France, is dead. His son and heir is a ten month-old baby. The land is ruled by a council of quarreling nobles, the country is uncertain and the throne is shaky. A mysterious secret society called The Black Flame threatens the very foundations of the law, the Church, and the kingdom itself in a deep and terrible conspiracy of murder, treason, sorcery and devil worship. On the windswept northern coast of England stand Burnstow Abbey and the convent of St. Regula, headquarters for the Black Flame and the setting for deeds of debauchery and depravity of a kind to shock even the hardened fifteenth century. Royal agents sent to investigate vanish or wash up on the shore dead. Graves are opened and bodies taken for blasphemous and terrifying occult rites. Young women enter the convent of St. Regula and never come out. A young novice at the abbey, Arthur Fitzroy, the bastard son of the late King Henry, is found horribly murdered in an obscene parody of the crucifixion. The regents must take action, and so they send in the Middle Ages' most har-boiled detective: Sir Thomas Clave, the Black Knight. Murdering monks, poisoning prioresses, scheming royal uncles, back street assassins, a mad alchemist, a beautiful and dangerous Queen of the Witches, the Black Knight cuts his way through them all to discover the truth and prevent the final horror set for All Hallows' Eve.
Download or read book Freedom's Sons written by H. A. Covington and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 977 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freedom's Sons is the fifth and last in underground cult novelist H.A. Covington's series of Northwest Independence novels. In the first four novels--A Distant Thunder, A Mighty Fortress, The Hill Of The Ravens, and The Brigade--we followed the path of the War of Independence when in the not-so-distant future, the people of the Pacific Northwest fought a five-year guerrilla war against the overbearing tyranny of Washington, D.C., and finally established the Northwest American Republic as an independent nation. Freedom's Sons chronicles the first fifty years of the NAR's existence as a country and a new society, including the struggle against crushing economic sanctions imposed by the outside world, as well as an attempt by the enraged Americans to reconquer the Northwest with a military invasion. The novel follows the fortune of three families, one of former rebel guerrilla fighters from the Northwest Volunteer Army, one Unionist, and one refugee family who flees to the Republic from the collapsing U.S.A. Freedom's Sons is a story of redemption and the triumph of the human spirit over the darkness now engulfing the world.

Practical Patricia Anne has put away her aunt-of-the-bride blue chiffon and settled back into domesticity when fun-loving Mary Alice calls to say they have a post-wedding date with a genealogist from the groom's side of the family.

Their mysterious guest has taken a plunge from the ninth floor of the courthouse building -- an apparent suicide. But given the scandals a nosy genealogist might have uncovered, the sisters are betting that some proud Southern family is making sure their shameful secrets stay buried. . .along with anyone who tries to dig them up.

Luke is desperate to hunt down Virginia, his wife of forty years, who has run off with a housepainter/snake-handling preacher named "Monk." And the sisters have graciously agreed to accompany their stricken kinsman on his search...in Luke's car, of course.

And before you can say "anaconda," they are hot on the serpentine trail of a killer who'd like nothing better than to sink a pair of poisonous fangs into two meddling Southern sisters!

But now Mary Alice's impulsive behavior has land them both in the Birmingham jail! It all begins with a call from their good friend Mitzi Phizer, who's starting an investment club -- kind of a Beardstown Ladies group. Patricia Anne is willing to make a small, conservative investment in a thriving chain of HMOs; Mary Alice is hot to trot to put her money on Viagra. But before the club idea gets off the ground, the sisters spot Mitzi's supposedly faithful husband in a chummy little huddle with a redhead -- and the next thing they know, Arthur is accused of murdering the mystery woman.
