Book Description
Do you believe that people can change? Can a bank robber marry the banker’s daughter without having any hidden thoughts and intentions? "A Retrieved Reformation" tells the story of Jimmy, a formal prisoner, who decides to quit violating the law in the name of love. He takes up a new identity and starts a new life as an honorable man. However he is about to face a choice which can cost him his future. Will he sacrifice himself in order to save a child in danger or he will prefer to keep his old identity in secret? William Sydney Porter, better known as O. Henry, was an American writer who lived in the late 19th century. He gains wide popularity with his short stories which often take place either in New York or some small American towns. The plot twists and the surprise endings are a typical and integral part of O. Henry’s short stories. Some of his best known works are "The Gift of the Magi", "The Cop and the Anthem", "A Retrieved Reformation". His stories often deal with ordinary people and the individual aspects of life. As a result of the outstanding literature legacy that O. Henry left behind, there is an American annual award after his name, given to exceptional short stories.

Book Description
"G-d wears many masks. And one is Groucho Marx," a narrator of Mel Waldman's daring and profoundly thoughtful novel declares. It is a clue and testimony to the threads of humor and irony that weave through this tale of erotic encounter, romance, insanity and murder. Ranging from the neighborhoods of Brooklyn to Manhattan's Bleecker Street with stopovers at Kennebunkport, Maine, Dr. Waldman composes a dark and at times tender and moving fantasy of a modern day Odysseus's quest for mental stability and love. Who Killed the Heartbreak Kid? is that rare mystery novel less concerned with whodunit than with the riddles of the human psyche. Sidney Offit, novelist, teacher and curator of the George Polk Journalism awards. Brooklyn noir and a thrilling ride through the labyrinth of the human psyche, revealing our darkest thoughts and emotions. A must-read! Richard Freeman, Publisher of PBW. Like a wild ride on the Coney Island Cyclone, it's a breathtaking journey and murder mystery, with an intriguing exploration of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and multiple personality through the eyes of a trauma survivor. Non-stop excitement! Richard E. Frenkel, M.D., author, psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, researcher, lecturer, and speaker at the United Nations.

Book Description
In You Know Who Killed Me, by multiple award-winning author Loren D. Estleman, Amos Walker is at low ebb. Just released from a rehab clinic, the Detroit private detective has to marshal his energies to help solve a murder in Iroquois Heights, his least favorite town. The area is flooded with billboards rented by the widow of Donald Gates, an ordinary suburbanite found shot to death in his basement on New Year's Eve: "YOU KNOW WHO KILLED ME!" they read, above the number of the sheriff's tip line. Complicating matters is a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the murderer, offered by an anonymous donor through the dead man's place of worship. Initially hired by the sheriff's department to run down anonymous tips, Walker investigates further. The trail leads to former fellow employee Yuri Yako, a Ukrainian mobster, relocated to the area through the U.S. Marshals' Witness Protection Program. Shadowed by government operatives, at odds with the sheriff, and struggling with his addiction, Walker soldiers on, in spite of bodies piling up and the fact that almost everyone involved with the case is lying to him. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
