Book excerpt: Life is starting to tick Robin Parsons off. Bad people get away with whatever, and good people are supposed to shut up and take it. When a friend gets into trouble and she sees a chance to even the score a little, Robin takes it. She makes a crooked politician give back the money he took. That's satisfying, and Robin wonders: Can I do it again? Should I do it again? She's no criminal mastermind, but help comes from unexpected sources. Soon Robin has a "gang," not exactly the Avengers, but willing and determined. As she continues her crusade for justice, Robin worries about a steely-eyed private investigator who's hot on her trail and seems to know where she'll go next. KIDNAP.org lets readers escape into "What if--?" with an everyday citizen who's had all she can take from the powerful and greedy. Enjoy the ride as Robin and her odd heroes use their not-so-super powers to make bad guys behave, turning victims into victors.
Book Synopsis Bring Back Our Girls by : Joe Parkinson
Download or read book Bring Back Our Girls written by Joe Parkinson and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-03-02 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 2021 Daily Telegraph Book of the Year Winner of the Overseas Press Club of America’s Cornelius Ryan Award “Everyone should read the testimonies of the Chibok girls who survived the capture. We need to help with efforts to liberate all of them and become more responsible for women and girls’ protection in conflicts.” — Malala Yousafzai What happens after you click Tweet? The heart-stopping definitive account of the mission to rescue hundreds of Nigerian schoolgirls whose abduction ignited a global social media campaign and a dramatic worldwide intervention. In the spring of 2014, millions of Twitter users, including some of the world’s most famous people, unwittingly helped turn a group of 276 schoolgirls abducted by a little-known Islamist sect into a central prize in the global War on Terror by retweeting a call for their release: #BringBackOurGirls. With just four words, their tweets launched an army of would-be liberators. Soldiers and drones, spies, mercenaries, and glory hunters descended into an obscure conflict that few understood, in a remote part of Nigeria that had barely begun to use the internet. When hostage talks and military intervention failed, the schoolgirls were forced to take survival into their own hands. As their days in captivity dragged into years, the young women learned to withstand hunger, disease, and torment, and became witnesses and victims of unspeakable brutality. Many of the girls were Christians who refused to take the one path offered them—converting to their captors' fundamentalist creed. In secret, they sang hymns, and kept a diary, relying on their faith and friendships to stay alive. Bring Back Our Girls unfolds across four continents, from the remote forests of northern Nigeria to the White House; from clandestine meetings in Khartoum safe houses to century-old luxury hotels on picturesque lakes in the Swiss Alps. A twenty-first century story that plumbs the promise and peril of an era whose politics are fueled by the power of hashtag advocacy, this urgent and engrossing work of investigative journalism reveals the unpredictable interconnectedness of our butterfly-wings world, where a few days of online activism can bring years of offline consequences for people continents away.

Book Synopsis The Trouble with Dad by : Peg Herring
Download or read book The Trouble with Dad written by Peg Herring and published by Peg Herring. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of KIDNAP.org and Pharma Con comes Book #3 of the Kidnap Capers series. Readers of the series know the lovable misfits who make up the Kidnap Gang: Robin, a former legal secretary; Cam a guy with developmental delays; Hua, a former victim of human trafficking, Tom, a disabled veteran, and Luca, a woman with an “interesting” past. In an earnest desire to right wrongs for the little guys, the Kidnap Gang abducts cheaters, shows them the error of their ways, and releases them with the understanding they’ll become honest citizens. In this third and final story, Robin’s attempt at a simple caper goes wildly wrong when her father appears on the scene and turns her world upside down. Mark Parsons is Robin’s bugaboo, the voice in her head she can’t silence. Though she admits he taught her things that are useful to the gang, that’s no credit to his parenting. He’s the kind of person who would—and did--use his own children to further his money-grubbing schemes. Now Mark has a new con in mind, and he forces Robin to help by threatening Cam’s life. Soon the rest of the gang is sucked into Mark’s web too. Robin is fully aware that her father would sacrifice any of them, even her, to get what he wants, which at the moment is a large chunk of kindly old Harry Robeson’s money. Running the con is the only way Robin can save Cam and maybe…maybe get her whole gang through this. Still, it’s hard when the person you have to outsmart to save the day is your own father.

Should she leave crime-fighting behind and try to return to normal life? As the gang members work out their roles in the Preston Caper, Em also questions her future. Is she too old for this? Though both women are tempted to look back, they can't stay in the past. Danger is in the present, and they'll need to remain sharp if they're going to succeed with PHARMA CON. Still, crooks like Preston, who take advantage of the sick and elderly, need to be taught a lesson. Preston has all the protection money can buy, but our gang of "super-freaks" intends to take him on. It will be funny. It will be suspenseful. It will be a great ride for readers.

Book Synopsis Twice the Crime This Time by : Maggie Pill
Download or read book Twice the Crime This Time written by Maggie Pill and published by Peg Herring. This book was released on 2020-10-01 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maggie Pill’s characters seem like people you know: In the Sleuth Sisters Series, it’s siblings we love but can’t always relate to. In the Trailer Park Tales Series, we meet the residents of an RV park in Florida: fussy husbands, smart-aleck wives, grumpy neighbors, conspiracy lovers, and more. The residents of B-Bird Over-55 RV Park are mostly snow-birds, so for months each year they face the joys and irritations of living in tight spaces with people from all over the place. Usually they cope with good humor, but at times it’s difficult. In ONCE UPON A TRAILER PARK, a murder on the property put residents on alert and one woman in deadly danger. In this, the second story of the series, our heroes are presented with two crime threads, one hot and one cold. The cold case is half a century old, which is okay, since many residents remember those days like they were yesterday. In 1967, on a warm night in Nashville, Tennessee, someone committed two brutal murders. It’s reported that person now lives in the park, hiding under a false identity. When local police ask Ron and Julie Rogers to try to find out who it is, they enlist the help of their friends to learn where each man in the park was on the date the crime occurred. The other crime is ongoing, and more of an annoyance than a concern. Rumor says someone is peeping in residents' windows, but it must be admitted that in any large community, rumor is often wrong. Ignoring the peeper sightings, the sleuths concentrate on finding the eighty-year-old killer. Neck-deep in suspects, they have no idea how dangerous things will become for one of them.

Download or read book Macbeth's Niece written by Peg Herring and published by Gwendolyn Books. This book was released on 2017-07-14 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tessa macFindlaech meets three witches on a Scottish hillside as she leaves her home to join the household of her uncle, Thane Macbeth. The weird women make predictions for her future, but Tessa sees no likelihood of truth in them. After all, the first crone claims Tessa is on her way to England, which is in the opposite direction. Surprises await that make her reconsider the prophecies. When Tessa discovers that Jeffrey Brixton, a guest in her uncle's castle, is a spy, he captures her and takes her to his home in England. There she must face the fact that her only asset is her beauty, her only friend the woman she believes to be Jeffrey's mistress. After a year in England, Tessa is married but not a wife, which the witches predicted. When Jeffrey is reported dead, she returns to Scotland. Her uncle's life has taken several ironic turns: he gained the throne he wanted so badly but lost everything he loves. Tessa does what she can for him, but by now Macbeth is his own worst enemy. Chased by murderous outlaws, trapped in a loveless marriage with a man who will not give her up, and alone except for an elderly but faithful servant, Tessa meets the witches once more and this time finds hope in their message. Now her quest is to find love, but love is not always wise. Does the man she loves return her affection, or will he plunge her into danger again, as he has done before? Set against the backdrop of Macbeth's rise and fall from power in Scotland, this historical novel provides both romance and adventure. Like her famous uncle, Macbeth's niece Tessa refuses to settle for an ordinary life, no matter how difficult the extraordinary becomes.

Book Synopsis Once Upon a Trailer Park by : Maggie Pill
Download or read book Once Upon a Trailer Park written by Maggie Pill and published by Gwendolyn Books. This book was released on 2019-10-07 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new series that’s suspenseful, humorous, and focused on mature couples with loving (but sometimes contentious) relationships. ONCE UPON A TRAILER PARK begins with a murder on the streets of the Beautiful Bird RV Park in Palm Hill, Florida. As residents learn bits and pieces about the crime (some true, some less so), they form and reform theories of the killer’s identity. It’s the park weirdo. It’s the ex-wife. It’s the victim’s employer. For a few couples in the park, it's important to find out the truth, some due to friendship, some from fear, some to protect themselves. What soon becomes clear is that asking too many questions brings danger. In fact for one unlucky senior citizen, it could spell disaster.
Download or read book Macdeath written by Cindy Brown and published by . This book was released on 2015-01-20 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: VIVID CHARACTERS AND A PLOT FULL OF SURPRISES... "Who cannot have fun with a disastrous (and murderous) production of Macbeth? Cindy Brown's first novel is a delicious romp with plenty of humor and suspense. Ivy (or is it Olive) is a fun heroine." - Rhys Bowen, New York Times Bestselling Author of the Molly Murphy and Royal Spyness Mysteries Sub-Genre Tags: Humorous Mysteries, Amateur Sleuths, Women Sleuths, Private Investigator Books Like every actor, Ivy Meadows knows that Macbeth is cursed. But she's finally scored her big break, cast as an acrobatic witch in a circus-themed production of Macbeth in Phoenix, Arizona. And though it may not be Broadway, nothing can dampen her enthusiasm-not her flying caldron, too-tight leotard, or carrot-wielding dictator of a director. But when one of the cast dies on opening night, Ivy is sure the seeming accident is "murder most foul" and that she's the perfect person to solve the crime (after all, she does work part-time in her uncle's detective agency). Undeterred by a poisoned Big Gulp, the threat of being blackballed, and the suddenly too-real curse, Ivy pursues the truth at the risk of her hard-won career-and her life. Praise for MACDEATH: "An easy read that will have you hooked from the first page. It is definitely packed with surprises all the way to the end. Cindy Brown uses what she knows from the theater life to give us an exciting mystery with all the suspense that keeps you holding on." - Fresh Fiction "Macdeath is a whodunit with a comic spirit, and Ivy Meadows has real heart. You'll never experience the Scottish play the same way again!" - Ian Doescher, Author of the William Shakespeare's Star Wars Series "Funny and unexpectedly poignant, Macdeath is that rarest of creatures: a mystery that will make you laugh out loud. I loved it!" - April Henry, New York Times Bestselling Author "Vivid characters, a wacky circus production of Macbeth, and a plot full of surprises make this a perfect read for a quiet evening. Pour a glass of wine, put your feet up, and enjoy! Bonus: it's really funny." - Ann Littlewood, Award-Winning Author of the Iris Oakley "Zoo-dunnit" Mysteries "Featuring the fierce and determined Ivy Meadows, a delightful misfit with a knack for getting herself into-and ultimately out of-trouble, this gripping mystery is both satisfyingly clever and rich with unerring comedic timing. Without a doubt, Macdeath is one of the most entertaining debuts I've read in a very long time." - Bill Cameron, Spotted Owl Award-winning author of County Line Books in the Ivy Meadows Humorous Mystery Series: MACDEATH (#1) THE SOUND OF MURDER (#2) September 2015 Part of the Henery Press Mystery Series Collection, if you like one, you'll probably like them all... Author Bio: Cindy Brown has been a theater geek (musician, actor, director, producer, and playwright) since her first professional gig at age 14. Now a full-time writer, she's lucky enough to have garnered several awards (including 3rd place in the 2013 international Words With Jam First Page Competition, judged by Sue Grafton!) and is an alumnus of the Squaw Valley Writers Workshop. Though Cindy and her husband now live in Portland, Oregon, she made her home in Phoenix, Arizona, for more than 25 years and knows all the good places to hide dead bodies in both cities.
Book Synopsis A Visitation of Spirits by : Randall Kenan
Download or read book A Visitation of Spirits written by Randall Kenan and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 2022-05-17 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “With A Visitation of Spirits, Randall Kenan continues James Baldwin’s legendary tradition of ‘telling it on the mountain.’”—San Francisco Chronicle When A Visitation of Spirits was published, Randall Kenan (1963-2020) was instantly recognized as a writer of significance, and one who brought into literary fiction the southern Black, gay experience, one of the first such writers to achieve mainstream success. His groundbreaking first novel, A Visitation of Spirits, is the powerful story of Horace Cross, a popular and high-achieving sixteen-year-old boy, who wrestles with the guilt of discovering who he is, a young man attracted to other men and yearning to escape the narrow confines of the small town of Tims Creek, North Carolina, where he grew up. Raised on stories of prophets, revelations, and dreams, his internal struggles take shape in his mind as demons and angels battling for his soul, culminating in one night of horrible and tragic transformation. A Visitation of Spirits established Randall Kenan as a literary master, and his influence continues to be felt. Now in Grove paperback and with an introduction by Tarell Alvin McCraney, Oscar-winning writer of Moonlight, A Visitation of Spirits is a classic novel of growing up from a literary giant.
