Scrambled Hard-Boiled
Author: Jr. White
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1257026151
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
It's Mayberry On Meth!Sex, drugs and double-knit polyester provide the key ingredients in this decidedly off-center take of the traditional detective novel. Scrambled Hard-Boiled is the story of a young man named Jay Dafoe coming into his own as private detective. Dafoe learns the in and outs of snooping into other people's lives and how to take advantage and profit from it. Philip Marlowe, he ain't.Full of dark humor, the novel is a tale of coming of age in the New South with its class and racial conflicts and the unfortunate habit of killing one another that people have always had in that part of the country. The traditional elements of the hard-boiled murder mystery are here: homicides, adultery, greed, crooked lawyers, mean cops and even meaner broads. Then, just to make things interesting, some regional spices like faith healing, homophobia, rednecks, county fairs and inter-species wrestling have been added to the recipe.

Boom and Bust
Author: Royce Kurmelovs
Publisher: Hachette Australia
ISBN: 0733638732
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
This is a cautionary tale. About greed, irresponsibility and failing to learn from the past. Australia's mining boom is still talked about with a sense of awe. This once-in-a-lifetime event capped off 25 straight years of economic growth. Thanks to mining we sidestepped the worst of the Global Financial Crisis. To the rest of the world Australia was an economic miracle. And then the boom ended. Now Australia is grappling with what that means at a time of rising economic inequality and political upheaval. The end of the boom isn't about money - it's about people. Boom and Bust looks at what happens to those who came into vast wealth only to watch it dry up. To those who thought they had a good job for life, but didn't. The bust didn't just happen on stock-market screens - it was lived, and is still being lived right now, in dusty towns and cities all around the country. As he did in his bestselling book The Death of Holden, Royce Kurmelovs reveals the reality behind the headlines. Boom and Bust is a dirt-under-the-nails look at the winners, the losers and the impact of the boom that wasn't meant to end. This is a book all Australians should read. 'Brilliant and powerful' Nick Xenophon on Royce Kurmelovs' THE DEATH OF HOLDEN
