A Boy Called Duct Tape by Christopher Cloud Pdf

Pablo Perez is a 12-year-old poor kid without much going for him. His classmates have dubbed him "Duct Tape" because his tattered discount-store sneakers are held together with...you guessed it, duct tape. He can't escape the bullying. Pablo's luck, however, changes after he finds a $20 gold coin while swimming in a river near his home. Pablo later buys a $1 treasure map at the county fair. The map shows the route to the "lost treasure" of Jesse James. Pablo can't help but wonder: Is there a link between the map and the gold coin? He is determined to find out, and he, his 9-year-old sister and 13-year-old cousin hire an ill-mannered cave guide, and begin a treacherous underground adventure in search of treasure.

Calling the Shots by Jennifer A. Reich Pdf

An increasing number of parents are refusing vaccines, believing vaccines pose greater risks than benefits to their children. Given the certainty of the medical community that vaccines are safe and effective, many wonder how such parents, who are most likely to be white, have high levels of education, and have the greatest access to healthcare services and resources, could hold such beliefs? Reich has been following the issue of vaccine refusal for over a decade, and examines how parents who opt out of vaccinations see their decision: what they fear, what they hope to control, and what they believe is in their child's best interest. -- adapted from back cover

Child of the Night by Thomas Laird Pdf

"Child of the Night is an interesting exploration of not only Jack the Ripper, but the idea of nature vs nurture. I very much enjoyed all the twists and turns of the book and it was definitely that creepy kind of good that will be a great re-read around Halloween." -LibraryThing Early Reviewers Child of the Night is a crime novel about Jack the Ripper. The famous murderer of women in White Chapel escapes capture in England and manages to sail to America at the end of the 19th Century. He makes his way to Chicago, Illinois, and begins a medical practice there. He has a son who becomes a medical doctor. The son manages to refrain from continuing his father's murderous ways. Jack's heir produces twins, both male, who follow their progenitor's medical career-but they've inherited the blood lust from their grandfather, and both carve up a series of prostitutes in Chicago in the modern day. Michael Parisi is a Chicago homicide investigator who becomes involved in the cases of the murdered prostitutes. Michael is a third generation homicide detective, the son of Jimmy Parisi and grandson of Jake Parisi, both legends of the Chicago Police Department. He's a veteran of the Army Rangers and did two tours in Afghanistan. He knows something about killing. Michael finds his way toward one of the twins and discovers later that they are a pair of homicidal maniacs. He begins to close in on the more savage of the two, but he finds evidence to pursue the brother with only one murder to his name. That twin flees to Florida, gets involved with a female hitchhiker he becomes romantically involved with. The other twin now has a grudge against Michael Parisi and plots his revenge against the detective. He begins by terrorizing Michael's wife, also a homicide detective. Jack the Ripper's grandson tries to execute Parisi on the top of Willis Tower (Sears Tower).

The Crow Girl by Erik Axl Sund Pdf

A #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER The newest crime novel sensation: In this shocking and suspenseful psychological thriller, a police detective must confront a monstrous evil that forces her to question how much suffering one person can inflict upon another before creating a monster. In a Stockholm city park, police discover the mutilated body of a young boy. Detective Superintendent Jeanette Kihlberg heads the investigation, battling an apathetic prosecutor and a bureaucratic police force unwilling to devote resources to solving the murder of a nameless immigrant child. But with the discovery of two more children's corpses, it becomes clear that a serial killer is at large. Jeanette turns to therapist Sofia Zetterlund for her expertise in psychopathic perpetrators and their lives become increasingly intertwined, professionally and personally. As they draw closer to the truth about the killings--working together but, ultimately, each on her own--we come to understand that these murders are only the most obvious evidence of a hellishly insidious evil woven deep into Swedish society. As viscerally dramatic as it is psychologically intense, The Crow Girl is a tale of almost unfathomably heinous deeds, and of the profound damage--and the equally profound need for revenge--left in their wake.

These are the initial ingredients of this full-throttle, nonstop chase thriller, which accelerates from the opening pages to its breathtaking finale.
