Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
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.

Milton Hershey is well known for his chocolate. You can find Hershey's chocolate throughout America and many other countries. Moreover, many have written about him likening M.S. Hershey to royalty, such as an Emperor or King of chocolate. However, this is not the Hersheys' greatest achievement.

As part of The Hershey Industrial School, the Hersheys created the community, businesses and education system of Hershey, PA. HIS was established in perpetuity for the benefit of American orphans. Hershey Ideal Community for Orphans is about the Hersheys' intelligent philanthropy. A philanthropy that not only benefited all who were a part of it, its beneficiaries are American children who are orphans, and therefore, through no fault of their own, are at risk of suffering a range of undesirable outcomes. The Hersheys were driven by philanthropic effectiveness, measured by the degree to which each individual was able to reach their full potential according to their own characteristics. HIS fully develops each orphan as a whole person according to such child's unique potential through its state-of-the-art program tailored around each individual by transforming him into an adult of exceptional character, prepared to make a living as an adult.

The Book of the Damned

Languages : en
Pages : 442
Book Description
"Time travel, UFOs, mysterious planets, stigmata, rock-throwing poltergeists, huge footprints, bizarre rains of fish and frogs-nearly a century after Charles Fort's Book of the Damned was originally published, the strange phenomenon presented in this book remains largely unexplained by modern science. Through painstaking research and a witty, sarcastic style, Fort captures the imagination while exposing the flaws of popular scientific explanations. Virtually all of his material was compiled and documented from reports published in reputable journals, newspapers and periodicals because he was an avid collector. Charles Fort was somewhat of a recluse who spent most of his spare time researching these strange events and collected these reports from publications sent to him from around the globe. This was the first of a series of books he created on unusual and unexplained events and to this day it remains the most popular. If you agree that truth is often stranger than fiction, then this book is for you"--Taken from Good Reads website.
