Requiem For a Glass Heart by David Lindsey Pdf

REVENGE CAN BE ECSTASY. Irina Ismaylova is a sexual assassin, luring men and women to her bed...and their death. From St. Petersburg to Paris, she kills not for money or for pleasure, but under orders from the Russian mafioso who holds her in thrall. Desperate to buy back what is left of her shattered life, Irina must carry out one last mission.... Cate Cuevas is a special agent in Houston's FBI office. Devastated by her husband's death--and his betrayal--she has plunged into the most dangerous assignment of her career. But to succeed, she must form a secret and profoundly intimate alliance with the enemy: Irina Ismaylova. Two women. One a cop. The other a killer. For these two there is no right, no wrong, no rules. Only the truth...and terror.

Difficult Women by Roxane Gay Pdf

The New York Times–bestselling author of Bad Feminist shares a collection of stories about hardscrabble lives, passionate loves and vexed human connection. The women in these stories live lives of privilege and of poverty, are in marriages both loving and haunted by past crimes or emotional blackmail. A pair of sisters, grown now, have been inseparable ever since they were abducted together as children, and must negotiate the elder sister’s marriage. A woman married to a twin pretends not to realize when her husband and his brother impersonate each other. A stripper putting herself through college fends off the advances of an overzealous customer. A black engineer moves to Upper Michigan for a job and faces the malign curiosity of her colleagues and the difficulty of leaving her past behind. From a girls’ fight club to a wealthy subdivision in Florida where neighbors conform, compete, and spy on each other, Roxanne Gay delivers a wry, beautiful, haunting vision of modern America with her “signature wry wit and piercing psychological depth” (Harper’s Bazaar).

Requiem for a Dream by Hubert Selby Pdf

A tale of four people trapped by their addictions, the basis for the acclaimed Darren Aronofsky film, by the author of Last Exit to Brooklyn. Sara Goldfarb is devastated by the death of her husband. She spends her days watching game shows and obsessing over appearing on television as a contestant—and her prescription diet pills only accelerate her mania. Her son, Harry, is living in the streets with his friend Tyrone and girlfriend Marion, where they spend their days selling drugs and dreaming of escape. When their heroin supply dries up, all three descend into an abyss of dependence and despair, their lives, like Sara’s, doomed by the destructive power of drugs. Tragic and captivating, Requiem for a Dream is one of Selby’s most powerful works, and an indelible portrait of the ravages of addiction. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Hubert Selby Jr. including rare photos from the author’s estate.

Requiem for a Mezzo by Carola Dunn Pdf

In March 1923, the Honourable Daisy Dalrymple takes a break from her writing to attend a performance of Verdi's Requiem at the Albert Hall with Scotland Yard's Detective Chief Inspector Alec Fletcher. The tickets are a gift from Muriel Westlea, Daisy's neighbor and the sister of Bettina Westlea, who will be singing the mezzo role. What should be a pleasant afternoon is quickly disrupted when, during the performance, Bettina falls dead on stage--killed by cyanide poisoning. While it is quickly determined that Bettina's on-stage glass of liqueur was laced with the poison, discovering the person responsible will not prove to be an easy task. Bettina was neither well liked nor well behaved, and many of her colleagues, associates, and even her family had good reason to want her dead. Daisy, determined to help Detective Chief Inspector Fletcher whether he wants help or not, decides to do some investigating on her own. But with so many suspects, the murderer may well go free....

Requiem pour un coeur de verre by David L. Lindsey Pdf

Elles sont deux. Deux femmes que tout sépare. Irina, la Russe, junkie, tueuse sans états d'âme, tombée sous la coupe de Serguei Krupatin, le chef de la mafia russe, qui a enlevé sa fille. Et Cate, l'Américaine, agent du FBI, brisée par la mort de l'homme qu'elle aimait et qui la trompait. Face à elles, l'impitoyable Krupatin, prêt à tout pour étendre son empire, et engagé avec ses homologues et rivaux dans une partie de bras de fer où la moindre erreur peut être mortelle. Krupatin a tout prévu, les traîtrises, les pièges, les fuites ou les infiltrations... Tout, sauf la rencontre d'Irina et de Cate, l'amitié qui naît entre elles, leur soif commune de revanche. Et c'est une lutte à mort qui s'engage, de Moscou à la Sicile, de Londres à Houston où se jouera le dernier acte... Aux ingrédients classiques du genre - suspense, violence, érotisme, arrière-plans politiques - David Lindsey insuffle une prodigieuse intensité, une vérité humaine qui en fait le digne héritier de John le Carré et de Frederick Forsyth.
