Download or read book Secret Witness written by Blaine Pardoe and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2012-04-18 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every small town has a moment when the real world abruptly intrudes, shattering the town's notions of itself and its people. For citizens of Marshall, Michigan, that moment came August 18, 1967. Nola Puyear was working downtown at the Tasty Cafe that morning when she received a package. She opened it and was instantly killed in a fiery explosion. In the months that followed, law enforcement and prosecutors wrestled with a crime that to all appearances was senseless. Evidence recovered from the blown-up restaurant, including a bottle of pills that had been tainted with lye, suggested a concerted plot to murder Mrs. Puyear. But why had someone wanted to kill the well-liked woman, by all accounts a pillar of her close-knit community? For that matter, was Marshall really the quaint paradise it seemed to be? Secret Witness brings to light startling new evidence and freshly uncovered facts to address these and other questions that, to this day, surround one of Michigan's most brutal murders. Based on extensive interviews with surviving prosecutors, police, and witnesses, Blaine Pardoe re-creates the investigation that pried into Marshall's dark underbelly and uncovered the seamy private lives led by some of the town's citizenry but led to only tenuous theories about the bombing. The book also examines the pivotal role played by the Secret Witness program, an initiative by the Detroit News that offered rewards for anonymous tips related to violent crimes. What's ultimately revealed is the true depth of evil that occurred in Marshall that day. Every small town has dirty little secrets. This time, they were deadly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From victim to victor! How one woman broke free... Growing up in a dysfunctional family where love was not to be found, Carol eventually became entrapped in a dysfunctional family herself. But her situation was far worse than the average one. Her story includes abuse, manipulation, prostitution, and murder. Many people who are trapped in such an evil web never escape. Secret Witness paints a vivid picture of it all and shows how she broke free from this dangerous, deadly lifestyle. Making headlines was never her goal, but when a murder planned by a powerful judge brought her to the forefront, Carol couldn't avoid it. There was no place to turn for help, or so she thought. Women who are caught up in this seemingly hopeless misfortune feel trapped into doing whatever it takes for them to be loved, not knowing there is an answer: an understanding heavenly Father who loves them unconditionally.
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.

But Joe DeMarco’s boss—the Speaker of the House—thinks there’s nothing accidental about it. Mostly because the reporter was on the trail of Senator Paul Morelli. Morelli is all but a shoe-in for the Democratic presidential nomination. But his golden boy public persona hides a monstrous character. Somehow, all of his sinister scandals seem to be cleaned up by a mysterious benefactor who stays just out of sight. Setting up a sting to catch the predatory Morelli, DeMarco thinks his job is done—until those who helped him with the sting start turning up dead. And unless he can uncover the powerful people who are protecting Morelli, DeMarco knows he’s next . . . In this chilling novel of unfettered power and final justice, Mike Lawson proves once again that he “has a true insider’s insight about real-world spinelessness, venality, and corruption that have taken the place of moral courage and true leadership on Capitol Hill” (The Washington Times).

Book excerpt: A political epic based on the early life of Eleanor Dulles–sister of John Foster Dulles, Secretary of State, and Allen Dulles, the first head of the CIA–and the secret beginnings of modern Israel. The Witness Tree interweaves years of classified research by co-author and Nazi war crimes investigator John Loftus with a perilous love story–the result is a sweeping novel of a diplomatic dynasty, born in the hope and treachery that defined the twentieth century. Eleanor Dulles comes from one of the most respected families in America. An economist and a socialist, she is the family rebel–and its last hope for salvation. Her affair with a mysterious younger man leads them into fateful brushes with the Zionist underground and the Soviet Comintern. Eleanor comes to understand her family’s connections to the treasonous Second World War oil business, and the unlikely lovers are led separately from war-torn Europe toward the doorstep of Nelson Rockefeller himself, with profound implications for the future of the Middle East. Part family saga, part political thriller, The Witness Tree imagines the little-known life of a woman who became the conscience of her family with a single, desperate act to redeem the soul of a nation betrayed.
