The old man's rule had proved a disaster for the realm and many hope that his removal may mean the return of peace to England's cities. Keeper of the King's Peace Sir Baldwin de Furnshill and his friend Bailiff Simon Puttock had been tasked with guarding Edward II, but they have failed in their task and now ride fast to Exeter to inform the sheriff of the old king's escape.

Getting Away with Bloody Murder: J. B. Brockman, the Best Criminal Lawyer in Texas by Mike Vance Pdf

"These true crime and murder stories between 1895 and 1910 revolve around one untested lawyer who rises from shady character to preeminent defense attorney in Houston. James Brockman seemingly appears out of nowhere to represent clients from gang leaders to jilted spouses, from wealthy storekeepers to drunken on-duty policemen. There are murder cases of jarring violence in which multiple people are shot down in a train station or a courthouse, and there are cases of uncommon humanity and sadness. The stories of these cases cross racial lines, and several tell an instructive story of the segregated Texas that affected so many lives. His career gained national recognition, including his involvement in the most famous American murder case of the young twentieth century, when he himself was murdered in Houston"--

Corners in the City of God by Jonathan Tran,Myles Werntz Pdf

David Simon's The Wire lays out before us a city in which people struggle under the weight of poverty, political corruption, economic despair, educational collapse, and the drug trade. This volume explores the various theological, ethical, and philosophical challenges presented by The Wire. As each season of The Wire unfolds, the moral complexities of life in the city deepen, as the failures of one system have unforeseen effects in other corners of the city. Fleshing out the ongoing tension between the "earthly city" and the City of God, Corners in the City of God is a theological companion to David Simon's masterpiece, inviting the reader to wrestle with the implications of belonging fully to the cities of the world, in all of their splendor and tragedy.

The Kingdom Of Fiends by Jeffrey Walters Pdf

THE KINGDOM OF FIENDs, is a fictional story about the gangs in Central America and the abandonment of members of a missionary youth group in a church located in the Slums of Torocagua in the fictional capital of Tengenalpa in the republic in Central America. The Mission group is witness to an assassination of a young boy by the 18th street gang- a violent group that rules over the kingdom. The missionaries are threatened by the gang and depart for the safety of a Hotel, but four lonely souls –the invisible ones- are left behind by an uncaring right-wing preacher that seems to have forgotten the teachings of the Bible. The young missionaries are subject to the gang's violence, the same violence experienced every day by the citizens of Torocagua. Some of the poor souls are killed, others are raped, kidnapped and taken to the compound of Gordo Félix the patron of the kingdom of fiends, the extortion king. A female MS13 gang - mortal enemy of the 18th street gang - member being held as sex slave by Gordo Felix helps the missionaries escape the 18th street gang compound. As corruption is common in the republic, the missionaries are not only hunted by the 18th Street gang once they escape – attempting to make it to the American Embassy- but also by a corrupt police search block trying to recover a cell phone because of compromising messages - police coordination and payoffs - with the gang. The less than Holy actions of the right-wing Evangelical preacher , Pastor Fermin, of The church of Latter-Day Saints of Jesus Christ attempts to cover up why the young missionaries were left behind at the mission in the slum of Torocagua, but his son, the youth pastor, Gregory, while tormented between telling the truth or continuing the lie to the public in order to protect his father finds his place where he can exist and have a sense of purpose in the chaotic world of the Kingdom of Fiends. Editor’s Note: “This story addresses the impact that corrupt leadership has on society, how it enslaves the ordinary person and forces them into a lifestyle they had never aspired to, which, in turn, supports the people in control, creating a self-perpetuating, eternal kingdom of fiends”. For the purpose of originality, there is dialogue in Spanish, but mostly in short phrases, by certain protagonist in the Kingdom of Fiends.
