A global pandemic finds millions swarming across the U.S. border. Major American cities are leveled by black-market nukes. China’s growing civil unrest ignites a global showdown.

Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 365
Book Description
The story of a small town football hero whose obsession and steroid rage led to murder is revealed in “this fine true-crime tale” (Publishers Weekly). A star athlete with a winning smile, Pernell Jefferson had no trouble attracting women. But his charming exterior belied his brutally violent tendencies. After walking away from a football career with the Cleveland Browns, he was addicted to steroids and nearly destitute. That’s when he set his sights on Regina Butkowski. Pernell obsessively called and showed up to her home unannounced—and he battered her when she turned her attention toward other men. When Regina disappeared, the Butkowski family knew who was responsible. But even after police discovered Regina’s charred remains in a small Virginia town, they refused to question the man most likely linked to the brutal crime. In Deadly Goals, veteran author Wilt Browning explores the devastating details of Pernell Jefferson’s past, the disturbing nature of his crimes, and the Butkowski family’s pleas for justice that led to his arrest. Deadly Goals was previously published under the title Where the Wildflowers Grow.

Book Description
Chatran is a host of many values even with his personal flaws. While his convictions are absolute, Chatran freely gives of himself to those that are honorable and respectful to him and to themselves. He returns as good as he gets, but his returns are in full! Of Chatran's greatest values is the protection of women of all types, and the protection of puppies, children, and cubs. And like any father or protector, Chatran will allow no threats to those that he loves and those that love him. Above all else, Chatran lives for family, friends, and a good time with them as often as possible. Even if he has to violently move something or someone out of the way to enjoy them. That is primarily due to the fact that Chatran has had a life filled with loss. He's been on his own for more than 15 years and has been alone in all of that time. Because of the Beast within, Chatran has had to maintain a solitary existence among people unlike himself and he's done okay in that life. But it hurts him. One day, while at work, an event takes place that changes Chatran's life and launches him into his natural element. Chatran learns to live and become one with his natural elemental form and embraces life and himself fully. He also learns something far greater. Because of that knowledge, he offers and ultimately, gives himself to others that have accepted him. But he has to earn their respect and trust very quickly before he is lost within himself and is released without direction. With the trust of the others, Chatran will have the responsibility of their protection. The question then becomes; can one of great strength partner with one of wrath and be successful in navigating their way to their real home? Or will they take the wrong road, unknowingly, and be damned while pursuing handfuls of shiny and pretty things? The problem is that there is no help. And the one leading the way isn't the one making the decisions.
