Voices from the Grave
A candid and brutal account of murder, abduction, and violence during the Troubles in Northern Ireland-from two men on opposite sides of the conflict. After 'the long war' in Ireland came to an end, very few paramilitary leaders on either side spoke openly about their role in that bloody conflict, but in Voices from the Grave, two leading figures from opposing sides reveal their involvement in bombings, shootings and killings on one condition: that their stories were kept secret until after their deaths. In extensive interviews given to researchers from Boston College, Brendan Hughes and David Ervine spoke with astonishing openness about their turbulent, violent lives. Hughes was a legend in...
The 1934 St. Louis Cardinals
The 1934 St. Louis Cardinals were one of the most colorful crews ever to play the National Pastime. Sportswriters delighted in assigning nicknames to the players, based on their real or imagined qualities. What a cast of characters it was! None was more picturesque than Pepper Martin, the “Wild Horse of the Osage,” who ran the bases with reckless abandon, led his teammates in off thefield hijinks, and organized a hillbilly band called the Mississippi Mudcats. He was quite a baseball player, the star of the 1931 World Series and a significant contributor to the 1934 championship. The harmonica player for the Mudcats was the irrepressible Dizzy Dean. Full of braggadocio, Dean deliv...

Paul Mitchell and Matthew Pierce used to work for the United Federation for Defense of America, a government agency based in Washington, DC. They happen to come across a government cover-up involving the attack on the Twin Towers back in 2001. When a string of mysterious deaths and disappearances happen across the country, they meet again in Lower Manhattan to launch their own investigation. During their quest to discover the truth, they receive an anonymous folder from another whistle-blower who wants to remain hidden in the shadows. Paul calls in Amanda Knox, a former intelligence officer to assist with their probe. They plan to send the information to the president of the United States, Michael Atlas, but he might not take them seriously as his own career is on the line. As their probe progresses, Paul and Amanda take a romantic interest in each other as the walls start to slowly close in around them. Will they expose what no one else could, or will they become the government's next victims?
Arlie's Dreams
A familiar shiver ran a zigzag line over her skin. Pressing the flower to her nose, Arlie breathed in deeply. Before her eyes, she suddenly saw water. Her heart raced at a memory of drowning. She steadied herself against her dresser as she gasped for air. 'Are you from my dream? How did you get in my room?' Arlie has always had the same dream. She dreamed of a magical place filled with the smell of flowers. She sat on a bench, looking over a crystal-blue lake. Ducks glided effortlessly over the lake, and never once did they stick their heads in the water searching for food. A few birds flew above; trees stood here and there, full and thick, and not one leaf lay beneath their mighty branches....
