Book excerpt: New York City, 1954. Two women are found murdered. One is Lorraine Quinn, Cantor Gold’s most recent one-night-stand. The other is political power broker and aspiring New York socialite Eve Garraway, a regular client of Cantor’s stolen art trade. Police nemesis, Lieutenant Norm Huber, wants to pin the murders on Cantor, send her to prison, and put her in the electric chair. He’ll get evidence on her any way he can. Into this cauldron of danger and death come two other women, each with ties to Cantor’s past. One hates her until passion intervenes; the other harbors darkly hidden feelings. Set during the earliest stirrings of the Homosexual Rights Movement, Cantor begins to question her own tenuous identity, and the trade-offs she must make to get what she wants. Cantor Gold, dapper butch art thief and smuggler for whom survival is everything, must now grapple with two fronts: surviving the shifting sands of the criminal underworld, and navigating the changing tides of society.

Download or read book Heaven's Ditch written by Jack Kelly and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2016-07-05 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A page-turning narrative, Heaven's Ditch offers an excitingly fresh look at a heady, foundational moment in American history. The technological marvel of its age, the Erie Canal grew out of a sudden fit of inspiration. Proponents didn't just dream; they built a 360-mile waterway entirely by hand and largely through wilderness. As excitement crackled down its length, the canal became the scene of the most striking outburst of imagination in American history. Zealots invented new religions and new modes of living. The Erie Canal made New York the financial capital of America and brought the modern world crashing into the frontier. Men and women saw God face to face, gained and lost fortunes, and reveled in a period of intense spiritual creativity. Heaven's Ditch by Jack Kelly illuminates the spiritual and political upheavals along this "psychic highway" from its opening in 1825 through 1844. "Wage slave" Sam Patch became America's first celebrity daredevil. William Miller envisioned the apocalypse. Farm boy Joseph Smith gave birth to Mormonism, a new and distinctly American religion. Along the way, the reader encounters America's very first "crime of the century," a treasure hunt, searing acts of violence, a visionary cross-dresser, and a panoply of fanatics, mystics, and hoaxers.

Book excerpt: Roland Evans-Jones thought by lending an 1889 work by a minor American Impressionist to an upcoming art exhibition, the value of his painting might increase by a few thousand dollars. But when pages from the artist's journal are found wedged in the frame - and they tell of a double murder committed by one of the dominant painters of that era - Roland knows he has something sensational on his hands.Using clues provided by the painting and the journal, Detective John Flynn, now-former garden club president Liz Phillips, and Roland set out to see if there are, indeed, two bodies buried behind a modest house in the Boston suburb of Hardington.What they find is something no one could have expected, and thus begins twin tales: one of the lengths to which the descendants of an artist will go to protect a legacy; and another of illicit riches being made today through robocalls and phone scams.The attraction between Liz and Flynn is more evident than ever as events in their lives sweep them toward an unknown future.Murder Brushed with Gold is the sixth entry in a series that includes A Murder in the Garden Club and A Murder at the Flower Show.

Book excerpt: This is the true story of the Clevenger family from Arizona Territory, and their unfortunate events as they trekked north to Washington Territory. Once the old, cantankerous Sam Clevenger and his wife, Charlotte, hired Frank Willson and John Johnson to help with the move, their fate took a dark turn. These true events were documented by journalists through the 1887 trial and well into the 1900s, and stories have been told of Sam's unfound treasure for nearly 130 years. But, this is the first detailed, documented, and vetted account of their bizarre and fascinating tale. About the Author I was born 150 years too late to realize my passions. I must say that I am infatuated with the 1800's, particularly the West and the allures that drew so many to drastic measures of unforeseen survival challenges, riches and true freedom. I grew up in Southern Utah, 20 miles from town and surrounded by history and its treasures, found and unfound. From Anasazi ruins flush with artifacts, to unfound Spanish bullion and cowboy era Gold coins still buried, this was my perfect childhood that never seems to fade. My lifetime of digging in the red hills of Southern Utah, Northern Arizona and the rich dirt of Nevada has now evolved from simply under my fingernails to writing for the world to realize what intrigues this old soul of mine.
Book Synopsis Exterminate Them by : Clifford E. Trafzer
Download or read book Exterminate Them written by Clifford E. Trafzer and published by MSU Press. This book was released on 1999-01-31 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular media depict miners as a rough-and-tumble lot who diligently worked the placers along scenic rushing rivers while living in roaring mining camps in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Trafzer and Hyer destroy this mythic image by offering a collection of original newspaper articles that describe in detail the murder, rape, and enslavement perpetrated by those who participated in the infamous gold rush. "It is a mercy to the Red Devils," wrote an editor of the Chico Courier, "to exterminate them." Newspaper accounts of the era depict both the barbarity and the nobility in human nature, but while some protested the inhumane treatment of Native Americans, they were not able to end the violence. Native Americans fought back, resisting the invasion, but they could not stop the tide of white miners and settlers. They became "strangers in a stolen land."

Then one night while the couple drove home from Atlantic City, Rob, his head bloodied, reported Maria had been brutally slain.

The haunting true story of the elusive serial rapist turned murderer who terrorized California during the 70s and 80s, and of the gifted journalist who died tragically while investigating the case—which was solved in April 2018. Introduction by Gillian Flynn • Afterword by Patton Oswalt “A brilliant genre-buster.... Propulsive, can’t-stop-now reading.” —Stephen King For more than ten years, a mysterious and violent predator committed fifty sexual assaults in Northern California before moving south, where he perpetrated ten sadistic murders. Then he disappeared, eluding capture by multiple police forces and some of the best detectives in the area. Three decades later, Michelle McNamara, a true crime journalist who created the popular website TrueCrimeDiary.com, was determined to find the violent psychopath she called "the Golden State Killer." Michelle pored over police reports, interviewed victims, and embedded herself in the online communities that were as obsessed with the case as she was. I’ll Be Gone in the Dark—the masterpiece McNamara was writing at the time of her sudden death—offers an atmospheric snapshot of a moment in American history and a chilling account of a criminal mastermind and the wreckage he left behind. It is also a portrait of a woman’s obsession and her unflagging pursuit of the truth. Utterly original and compelling, it has been hailed as a modern true crime classic—one which fulfilled Michelle's dream: helping unmask the Golden State Killer.
