When Serial Killers Terrorize a California Beach Community, One Woman Stands in Their Way

Emily Stone doesn’t have a badge. But that hasn’t stopped her from tracking down some of the West’s most dangerous child-killers. Armed with a digital SLR camera, laptop computer and her trusty Beretta, Stone uses her innate gift for detective work to identify the perps — and then anonymously e-mail the evidence to the cops.

Now, the hunt for two brazen serial killers on the loose right in her own coastal California town threatens to expose Stone’s identity — unraveling her carefully constructed cover and jeopardizing her life’s work. But when she gets too close to the action, this razor-sharp hunter becomes the hunted. Cooperating with the handsome local police detective could be the only hope for stopping the rampage directed at unsuspecting young women — and saving herself. Can they piece together the clues in time?

Compulsion mixes CSI-style investigation with a ripped-from-the-headlines plot and a dose of romance for a keeps-you-guessing, fast-paced and savvy thriller, right up until the shocking finale.

The New Valley

• Hardcover: 352 pages
• Publisher: Grove Press (June 3, 2009)
• Language: English
• ISBN-10: 0802118917
• ISBN-13: 978-0802118912

Description

The three linked novellas that comprise Josh Weil’s debut bring us into America’s remote and often unforgiving backcountry, and delicately open up the private worlds of three very different men as they confront love, loss, and their own personal demons.

Set in the hardscrabble hill country between West Virginia and Virginia, The New Valley is populated by characters striving to forge new lives in the absence of those they have loved. Told in three varied and distinct voices – from a soft-spoken middle-aged landscaper and beef farmer struggling to hold himself together after his dad’s suicide; to a health-obsessed single father desperate to control his reckless, overweight daughter; to a mildly retarded man who falls in love with a married woman intent on using him in a scheme that will wound them both – each novella is a vivid, stand-alone examination of uniquely romantic relationships. As the men struggle against grief, solitude, and obsession, their desperation slowly leads them all to commit acts that will bring both ruin and salvation.

Written with a deeply American tone and in empathetic, meticulously crafted prose, The New Valley is a tender exploration of resilience, isolation, and the deep, consuming ache for human connection.

Brother against Brother, brings to mind the War Between the States. World War One, was called the War to End All Wars, and the Great War, until the Big One. World War Two. The Forgotten War? Korea. Yet, never to be forgotten is Viet Nam, the Hated War. In spite of cries for peace and love, Viet Nam became the war fought in living rooms across America. The mid 1960’s saw the beginning of changes in attitudes that would trigger social unrest. Two people, one love, separated by time and distance with a despised war on one side, and growing protests to make love, not war on the other. The epistolary War Written Words is in the form of a series of letters exchanged by the characters, Jeff and Beth Madison during his tour of duty in South East Asia, with the exception of the three chapters at the end.

By the late 1960’s… The challenge that invigorated early attitudes, “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country”, seemed to have been long forgotten. Letters from Nam, returning soldiers, and a war that appeared to have no end, had shifted public opinion. “Hell No! We Won’t Go!” was the reply by the end of the decade. Music would swing from doo wop to acid rock. Hair grew from duck tails, to mop tops, ratted and teased, to flowers and beads. This novel is about relationships between people, and the effect that pop culture, and historical events had upon their lives. You know these people, they are your family, friends, neighbors, coworkers, and associates… every day, ordinary people. As the trilogy comes to it’s conclusion, Turn on, tune in, drop out…

Lost in the midst of the violence of the First World War was a holocaust that differed from that of Hitler’s only in its scale. The Turkish government let loose upon its own Armenian citizens its hordes of savage killers, recruited from its prisons, to perpetuate one of history’s most barbaric slaughters upon a peaceful and progressive people, massacring a million and a half of its three million Armenian population. During Hitler’s planning of the extermination of the Jews, he is quoted by history as saying, “After all, who speaks nowadays of the massacre of the Armenians?” Vahan Gregory’s Sing the Long Sorrow penetrates the events of this historic nightmare, and tells a moving tale of perpetrator and victim.

Miles Prestwich is in love. The object of his desire is Lady Guinevere Northwicke who is, unfortunately, the daughter of a powerful duke-who also happens to be a very loving and protective father. Believing his suit to be unworthy, he tries to forget and limits his interaction with her. Then his twin brother arrives in Town. Darius is everything that Miles is not. He drinks too much, gambles too much, fights too much, and doesn’t care a rap for Society or its strictures. When the lovely Lady Genevieve Northwicke catches his eye, he ignores the warnings fired at him from all corners, resulting in the death of that lady’s reputation. Rather than facing the consequences of his actions, he flees. Miles must resolve the situation the only way he knows how: offer marriage to the sister of his beloved to rescue her from scandal. But will his action actually solve the problem? Or cause more misery than anyone could possibly imagine?

Description

The erotic chapters of this consolidation are elaborations and omitted subscripts from writings of previously published books and some of those not yet published by K.S. Michaels and Penelope Ashe. Due to the scintillating nature of these sexually graphic stories, moral issues precluded them from print, until now. The characters of this book are neither vile nor raunchy, as some may have critiqued, but simply the fantasies, pervaded with passion, the authors wish to share in hopes to shed more light on the sensual characters within us all. There is a moment before the physical act has even begun . . . the moment of consensual query that flutters the heart, and defaults the rational. Erotica, Fantasy by Numbers Volume 1 exploits the moment, and journeys further into the abyss of passion and adventure
