Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
Embezzlement, murder, and beautiful women . . . Andy Roark, Vietnam veteran turned private investigator is on the case in this thrilling hardboiled mystery that’s perfect for fans of Robert B. Parker and Jeremiah Healy. “Fans of Robert B. Parker’s Spenser novels . . . will be eager to see more of Roark” Publishers Weekly “Roark is genuinely likeable (not too tough, but not a patsy)” The New York Times Boston, 1986. Spring in Boston is always a miserable affair, and Andy Roark’s latest case offers nothing to raise his spirits. The ex-military operative turned private investigator has been hired by a bank president to investigate three of his staff. One of them has embezzled over two million dollars – and Brock wants Roark to find out who’s living above their means. Sounds exciting enough, but after two weeks' tedious surveillance uncovers a grand total of nothing, Roark gives it up as a bad job. Brock needs a forensic accountant on the case, not a PI. But several weeks later, the bank is held up, and one of Brock’s suspects is murdered by the robber. Is there a connection? Roark can’t see how, but he’s never been a fan of coincidence. With the case niggling at him, he relaunches an investigation on his own dime. Soon he’s rubbing shoulders with some very shady characters – and trying his best not just to solve the case, but also to come out of it alive. Written by a US Army veteran and New England police officer, the Andy Roark mystery series will appeal to fans of classic private detective novels, packed with wry humor, unexpected twists and explosive scenes.

Fancies and Goodnights
Author: John Collier
Publisher: New York Review of Books
ISBN: 9781590170519
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 444
Book Description
John Collier's edgy, sardonic tales are works of rare wit, curious insight, and scary implication. They stand out as one of the pinnacles in the critically neglected but perennially popular tradition of weird writing that includes E.T.A. Hoffmann and Charles Dickens as well as more recent masters like Jorge Luis Borges and Roald Dahl. With a cast of characters that ranges from man-eating flora to disgruntled devils and suburban salarymen (not that it's always easy to tell one from another), Collier's dazzling stories explore the implacable logic of lunacy, revealing a surreal landscape whose unstable surface is depth-charged with surprise.

Promise Me Never

ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
"Tell me it wasn’t just butterflies and bullshit." Loyalty between true love formed iron-clad restrictions. A guaranteed agreement, at least for now. ZAILEY It started with a few letters. My spilled confessions stained the paper along with my teardrops. The declaration wasn’t meant to take down the community. I was only seeking relief from the crippling memories my best friend Sawyer made on our adolescence. The past brought agony, people spit on my truth. As I walked through those puddles of disgust, trying to remain devoted to erasing the shame in my bloodstreams. RIVER I refused to listen to her, I’d first staple my ears shut. My glare always focused on the ground she stood, nothing but scum. With beliefs that love was kind, that it was patient. My mother raised my brothers, and I had faith in the slogan. Apparently, the girl who holds my affection didn’t get the memo. A woman like her should come with hazardous protection. Nothing stops the soul from finding it’s rightful mate. Both perspectives tricked, caught amid a hoax by their closest candidate. Off with the masks for the final reckoning. When the truth becomes the cure, everybody catches a lie, instigating an epidemic. Promise Me Never is a spin-off with Olallie's friends. The timeline for this book happens before MINDER: Olallie's Offering. CAN BE READ AS A STANDALONE. +18 Sexual Content and Mature Language. Sensitivity/ Trigger Warning.

Pages : 369
Book Description
Tragic events in her formative years colour Melissa’s perceptions of her place in the world. Trust and commitment are not concepts she embraces. Known in Alice Springs for her aloof behaviour, Melissa is okay with that. She prefers to view life through the lens of her camera. Chris Harris is sociable and charismatic, with a wide circle of friends. He’s worked as a chopper pilot in the region for several years, and enjoys the work, but it’s time for a change. Even so, nobody would have predicted what would happen when he and Melissa had a dramatic confrontation on her father’s remote property. It’s a case of yin and yang attract, luring them both out of their comfort zone. Does that mean Chris will tolerate irrational behaviour? Some people know when to cut their losses. In a journey that takes Melissa from a remote Australian station, to the high fashion world of Sydney and beyond, she comes to realise there are choices to make in who she lets into her life, and who she loves.
