I Would Rather Stay Poor by James Hadley Chase Pdf

Like most bank managers, Dave Calvin had acquired an irresistible charm that he could switch on whenever he felt the necessity. Underneath it he was cold, calculating, brutal - a perfect murderer. For years he had waited - watching an endless stream of money pass through his hands - knowing that a risk was only worth taking if the reward was justified. And a $300,000 payroll was justification enough - even for murder ...

Reilly – Running Full Circle by Amber Jo Illsley Pdf

This is the third book in the trilogy on Seamus O’Reilly the cat’s exploits. He can talk and still has plenty to say, despite growing older and seemingly more mature. But “mature” is a dirty word in Reilly’s opinion. As far as he’s concerned, he’s ageless. To the adorable and yet chauvinistic Reilly, the world is a fascinating place and he is the most fascinating part of it. Reilly manages to ingratiate himself with many of the people around him, provided he leaves his claws retracted. Caught in the middle of the big pussycat’s capers is Reilly’s owner, who already knows that there is no one the ornery feline is more protective of than her. In this semi-fictional story, accompanied by illustrations and poetry, Reilly continues with his carefree adventures, entertaining antics, and witty repartee, initially with girlfriend Katie and later on with his new girlfriend, Chloe Arabella, and his owner.
