Pages : 225
Book Description
Mr. Big is the shocking true story of a murder investigation in Newfoundland and Labrador that forever changed the face of the Canadian justice system. On August 4, 2002, three-year-old twin girls Karen and Krista Hart drowned in Gander Lake. They had gone there with their father. He said it was an accident, but the police were convinced Nelson Hart had killed his daughters that day. With not enough evidence to make an arrest, the RCMP launched a $500,000 "Mr. Big" sting operation to try to get a confession. This book examines the dramatic events that unfolded over the four-month period when Nelson was flying back and forth across the country working in what he believed to be an organized crime syndicate. Central to this story is Jennifer Hicks, who reveals for the first time her life with her now ex-husband, Nelson Hart, and the events surrounding the deaths of her daughters. Together with television journalist Colleen Lewis, who closely followed Hart's murder trial, Jennifer has reconstructed the tragic story of an abusive relationship and a mother's worst nightmare.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
He’s tortured and dark, angsty and arrogant. You want the truth? He’s kind of an A-hole. He’s also the CEO. Everything in my life goes according to plan, and that’s the way I like it. I got the degree. I got the job. Now I just need to prove that I have what it takes to succeed in the real world. If there’s one thing that’s not in my plans, it’s falling in love with my boss. Most relationships don’t start with one person calling the other out in public for being an arrogant jerk. Then again, most CEOs don’t cut their own employees in line at the coffeehouse and bark orders at people like they own the place. Maybe pissing Oliver Cody off isn’t the right move. And now that he’s part of my world, all my plans go straight to hell. This sexy standalone novel includes an excerpt from another Loveswept title. Praise for Mr. Big “This is a masterful piece of writing. I could not, and did not, put it down until I finished the book. It’s difficult to say how much I loved reading Mr. Big, but when you read it you will understand.”—USA Today “Mr. Big is funny, emotional, and a whole lot sexy. Delancey Stewart provided romance, conflict, angst, friendship, and family [with] an entertaining cast of characters.”—Harlequin Junkie “Oliver and Holland are realistic and easy to sympathize with, and they have smoldering chemistry. This is a heartwarming story with interesting characters and a good plot line.”—Cocktails & Books “I felt for each character. . . . Loved the writing and can’t wait to read more from this author.”—Alpha Book Review “I loved being able to follow the journey and I am absolutely convinced that I will read a book from this author at any given time.”—Jeri’s Book Attic (five stars) “Ollie is no match for Holland. She takes a dickish, spoiled pretty boy and turns him into the sexy, bad boy alpha of her dreams. Hot chemistry, sizzling sex, and a hero you can’t wait to get what’s coming to him, Mr. Big will keep you turning pages.”—USA Today bestselling author Jamie K. Schmidt, “Mr. Big is the kind of smart, sexy delight that every woman deserves to read! Delancey Stewart will make you believe in true love in this steamy, heart-wrenching tale.”—USA Today bestselling author Sierra Simone “With a smart, feisty heroine and hot, tortured hero, Mr. Big has everything I look for in a contemporary romance. Witty, sexy, and full of heart!”—USA Today bestselling author Melanie Harlow

Category : Confession (Law)

Pages : 0
Book Description
In, 1901, the Manitoba Court of King's Bench described the Mr. Big scenario as ôvile and contemptible,ö yet it remains an accepted interrogation technique. Posing as organized crime figures working for a powerful boss known only as ôMr. Big,ö who is willing to offer incentives but only if the details of any criminal past are disclosed, undercover police officers encourage, cajole, bribe and compel confessions out of key suspects. The scenario is often successful at achieving its goal - a confession - but it is no coincidence, this book charges, that these coerced confessions come most often from within vulnerable populations.

The Real Mr. Big
Author: Ron Chepesiuk
Publisher: WildBlue Press
ISBN: 1952225574
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
This true crime memoir is both a “high-speed train trip through the modern cocaine trade” and a story of reform, redemption and family (Gerald Posner, and author of Pharma). Born in 1960, Jesus Ruiz Henao wanted to be rich like the drug dealers he saw as he grew up in the cocaine-producing region of Colombia’s Valle of the Cauca. In 1985, he moved to the quiet London suburb of Hendon, where he and his wife held down mundane cleaning and bus driving jobs. At least to outward appearances . . . While keeping a low profile, Henao built a drug trafficking network reaching from Colombia to England and across Europe. It was a risky business with law enforcement on one side and ruthless competitors on the other. By the summer of 2003, he decided to get out. But then he made the one mistake that would get him caught. It cost him a seventeen-year prison sentence, with more tacked on when he tried to make one last deal from behind prison walls. Co-written by Henao with bestselling author Ron Chepesiuk, The Real Mr. Big is the story of how an ambitious Colombian immigrant became known to law enforcement as “the Pablo Escobar of British drug trafficking.”
