He also is hired to recover a stolen Monet, a crime that results in two murders initially, with more to come. Along the way, Riley investigates the gambling ships anchored off LA, gets involved with the girlfriend of the gangster running one of the ships, and disposes of the body of a would-be actor who assaults Riley’s girlfriend.

He is aboard an ocean liner sailing to the Mysterious East (Hong Kong, French Indochina, and the Philippines), among other places. The year is 1894 and aboard the S S China Billy meets a mysterious, dazzling, and possibly dangerous German Baroness, locked horns with malevolent agents of the German government, and battled ferocious Chinese and Malay pirates in the South China Sea. Later, he is inadvertently embroiled in the bloody anti-French insurgency in Indochina–which quite possibly makes him the first American combatant in a country that eventually will become Vietnam.

As the 19th century ends and the 20th century begins, he finds himself entangled with political opportunists, spies, revolutionaries and an assortment of malevolent and dubious characters of both sexes. How will Billy handle those people and the challenges they present?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by experienced deafie owner Amanda Brahlek and using contributions from dozens of deaf dog owners, this truly is a “Must Read” for anyone opening their home to a deaf dog. Inside these pages you’ll find answers to the most important questions a new deaf dog owner is faced with: What accommodations do you need to make for your deafie? How to prepare your home for a deaf dog Training, communication, and hand signals How do you safely socialize a deaf dog with other dogs? How can you promote comfort and security with your deafie? Amanda's story: Before I adopted my deaf Catahoula, I searched and searched for information on what to expect and how to care for him. I needed a What to Expect When You’re Expect guide but for deaf dogs. Unfortunately, each source I read fell short. Most sources offered the same generic, inadequate information and advice. None prepared me for what owning a deaf dog was really like. I knew I could write a better guide, so I did. And here it is! This is the guide I wish I had before adopting my deaf dog, when I brought him home, and for the months and years that followed. Find out what it’s truly like to own a deaf dog: from accommodations to cuddles. This book will provide you with the information you need to understand and best care for a deaf dog. My goal is to help you feel confident in your decision when considering if a deaf dog is the right choice for you, and, if it is, to assist you in training your deaf dog. Deaf dogs are lovable goofballs with a lot of love to share, but they require owners that are prepared to handle all aspects of their personalities and needs. If you’re feeling overwhelmed after adopting a deafie or uncertain whether or not to adopt a deaf dog, this book is for you.

Book Synopsis Wobbling Star by : Ronald D Ferguson
Download or read book Wobbling Star written by Ronald D Ferguson and published by Ronald D Ferguson. This book was released on with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does tasking an AI with learning to become a fiction writing assistant set it on the pathway to sentience? Be careful when an Ai insists on converting your diary to an audio novel. It may have a hidden purpose. When Henri Kourtney agrees to ferry torg-hunting tourists to the wilderness of a backwoods planet, he postpones his ambition to explore the stars. Henri hopes the expedition allows him time to get to know the cute girl from Earth and maybe land him an interstellar berth with her astrophysicist cousin. He doesn't expect that his angry ex-girlfriend will join the trip, that the tourists are more interested in satellite-image planetography than torg, that torg are not native to the planet, or that his new AI digital assistant's constant bickering over the writing style of his journal is the birth pang of sentience. The biggest surprise is that a mineral-encrusted artifact conceals a purpose as mundane as a subway token, and that all their lives will depend on whether the cosmic subway still runs. —The dreams you imagine are not always as good as the reality you get. Wobbling Star is a coming-of-age interstellar adventure and romance.
