After limping through a decade of booze, pills, and cheap prostitutes, Marshalls life has become a constant state of misery. One day Marshall learns that Mason, his estranged brother, owes two million dollars to a ruthless drug lord named Medrano. Marshall has to travel to Costa Rica in order to kill Medrano, save his brother, and earn a huge payday. Marshall initially refuses the job, but when he learns that Elise, his twelve-year-old niece, is also involved in the mess, Marshall decides to come out of retirement and get back into the business of killing. Things immediately go wrong for Marshall and he realizes that hes not only rusty, but begins to question whether he ever had any skills as a contract killer in the first place. Dropped into an environment thats part paradise and part hell-on-earth, Marshall is forced to deal with psychotic drug dealers, a deadbeat brother, a sassy niece and the realization that life isnt easy being a hitman with a limp.

Book Description
The clone assassin has been played long enough—now it’s more than a game. Bred to kill, Agent 47 is The Agency’s most valuable assassin. So when a competing murder-for-hire organization decides to destroy The Agency, the first person they target for elimination is Agent 47. Tasking someone to off the best hitman in the business is one thing; getting the job done is another. When the attempt falls short, Agent 47 is ordered to track down and kill the culprit who is feeding vital information about The Agency to its enemies. Agent 47 must follow a bloody trail halfway around the world, fight his way through the streets of Fez, Morocco, and battle slavers deep inside Chad. Then he will discover a shattering truth: If he fails at his mission, the price he’ll pay will be far greater than his own life. . . .

Book Description
In his own words, Bret Hart’s honest, perceptive, startling account of his life in and out of the pro wrestling ring. The sixth-born son of the pro wrestling dynasty founded by Stu Hart and his elegant wife, Helen, Bret Hart is a Canadian icon. As a teenager, he could have been an amateur wrestling Olympic contender, but instead he turned to the family business, climbing into the ring for his dad’s western circuit, Stampede Wrestling. From his early twenties until he retired at 43, Hart kept an audio diary, recording stories of the wrestling life, the relentless travel, the practical jokes, the sex and drugs, and the real rivalries (as opposed to the staged ones). The result is an intimate, no-holds-barred account that will keep readers, not just wrestling fans, riveted. Hart achieved superstardom in pink tights, and won multiple wrestling belts in multiple territories, for both the WWF (now the WWE) and WCW. But he also paid the price in betrayals (most famously by Vince McMahon, a man he had served loyally); in tragic deaths, including the loss of his brother Owen, who died when a stunt went terribly wrong; and in his own massive stroke, most likely resulting from a concussion he received in the ring, and from which, with the spirit of a true champion, he has battled back. Widely considered by his peers as one of the business’s best technicians and workers, Hart describes pro wrestling as part dancing, part acting, and part dangerous physical pursuit. He is proud that in all his years in the ring he never seriously hurt a single wrestler, yet did his utmost to deliver to his fans an experience as credible as it was exciting. He also records the incredible toll the business takes on its workhorses: he estimates that twenty or more of the wrestlers he was regularly matched with have died young, weakened by their own coping mechanisms, namely drugs, alcohol, and steroids. That toll included his own brother-in-law, Davey Boy Smith. No one has ever written about wrestling like Bret Hart. No one has ever lived a life like Bret Hart’s. For as long as I can remember, my world was filled with liars and bullshitters, losers and pretenders, but I also saw the good side of pro wrestling. To me there is something bordering on beautiful about a brotherhood of big tough men who pretended to hurt one another for a living instead of actually doing it. Any idiot can hurt someone. —from Hitman

Book Description
Set in the near future, the demonic Legion of the Basilisk, vanguard of terrorism, has struck at the heart of the birthplace of Abraham near Ur in Iraq during the New World Order's One Covenant ecumenical global media event on the morning of November 1. Among the million eliminated in the blast, are major political and chief ecclesiastical dignitaries from around the world, including reports of Pope Clement XV's annihilation in Iraq. This universal disaster has thrown the global community into a vacuous void, their hopes dashed. This beginning of the ultimate apocalypse finds an eclectic, ethnic group of ordinary people in strategic vocations catapulted into the smoldering ashes of the Basilisk's black fire. Taken on this phenomenal physical and psychological journey into hell, skeptical Metroplex Mirror reporter Patrick Gallagher must team up with the enigmatic Greek Nicolas Andriopoulos and the mysterious Fasif Khadid to sacrifice Pat's own goals for a greater need where he and Niki will need the help of the abstruse Dr. Makuta Ogidi, as well as counting on the few resisters within the Vatican in cooperation with a small cadre of loyal Swiss Guards and Cardinal Gregory Zachmunn, including the head of Vatican Universal Communications, Monsignor Stephen Navarro along with the spunky Irish nun Sister Bridie, all vitally aided by the latest technology of the enterprising Australian media mogul Colin Rembert. Both Pat's inscrutable editor Vic Van Wess, and the love of Gallagher's life, Corrine Morelli must enter the devil's den to confront the nefarious beast. All must band together in a desperate effort to save mankind and stop the devil himself from being victorious. With death slithering at their heels, they must engage in a deadly chess game to combat the clandestine Legion led by Pat's publisher American mastermind madman mogul Edwin Blix, devious Elena Grabe, plotting apostate Cardinals Antonio Macelli and Josef Vendem, Sicilian hit men Guillaume Brunatti and Luciano Serrano, gruff Turk Usif Erbet, wily vixen Maria Figuerido, American reporter Jordan Collier, and Blix's lackeys Ans and Soto Ichariak, along with the surreptitious summit of six. The Basilisk's tentacles reach out in political, ecclesial, and foreign intrigue surrounding the expedited election to be signaled by white smoke, notifying the world that the next pontiff has been chosen. The fear is he could very well be a member of the Legion. As the hours, minutes, and the number of resisters dwindle, murder and intrigue lurk everywhere as the Basilisk reveals its hideous form claiming several martyrs of the resistance. After a dying pope delivers a stunning landmark decree to rescue the very soul of the Church in the Sistine Chapel following the Legion's attempted destruction of the Holy See, renewed hope is seemingly crushed again when the few remaining resisters are captured by the Legion and taken back to where it all started. Though the Legion can destroy buildings and priceless treasure, they cannot destroy the most priceless treasure - man's resolve to triumph over evil. With global hope waning, the few resisters left must make their last stand on the charred ruins of the Field of Death where hell is about to engulf the world as the remaining members of the Legion plot for who will serve as the host to reincarnate Lucifer in the flesh. Only one weapon, one of great mystery, can stay the evil that has gripped the globe. Will it be enough? "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." --Matthew 19:26

Book Description
The Château du Ciel was once the destination for the rich and famous to play, drink and ski—complete with a private railway to shuttle those desiring extra privacy—now, however, the guests are few and far between. The New Year’s Eve party was supposed to hoist the rundown hotel back to its former status, until a massive blizzard hits, trapping the guests who’ve come to celebrate the grand hotel’s last hurrah. The circumstances might even be romantic, if the hotel wasn't reputed to be haunted. When hotel employee Mave Michael finds the resident artist dead, and shortly thereafter hotel security finds Mave alone with the body, the reputation that Mave has fought long and hard to outrun comes back to haunt her. You see, her father is a notorious hitman who is serving multiple life sentences in prison. She has changed her name and location dozens of times, but he somehow manages to track her down—even sending her a postcard on the eve of her birthday, January 1st. She’s the perfect choice to frame for murder, and now the number one suspect. Mave can no longer deny the lessons in survival her father taught her, and calls on that and her uncanny sixth-sense in “finding” lost objects to navigate the maze of the hotel. To save herself, she not only has to stop running from her own past, she must unearth the history of the hotel, its elite guests and buried secrets—one deadly sin at a time. An homage to classic gothic horror, that proves that the ghosts of family and classism are alive and well.
