The Girl from Back Then by Edward Hendriks Pdf

Some girls from your past you better never see again. My own Brenda, eight months pregnant, was sitting back at home, but Lieve was sitting on the barstool right next to me, red-haired and freckled and, from the first instant my eyes met her green eyes, I knew that I would be making the worst mistake of my life. She was just enchanting. I don't use that word very often, but she was, in the true sense of that word. "Keep my crutch free," she said at one point, parroting Hazes and his mindless song. "So, she'll never come back," I thought. But this story didn't unfold like the lyrics of that old crooner. She really did go to the washroom and, just a couple of minutes later, Lieve - that's what she called herself - came back. She asked me if I would like to take her home. I could hardly believe that this was really happening. She was too young, I was too old and, on top of everything else, I was too married. And, what was more, I would be a father in a couple of weeks. Of course, I should have just thanked her for her company and offered to call her a cab. Just three kisses on the cheek, and that would be that. That's how it should have gone. But it didn't go that way. Twenty years ago, Paul Meertens cheated on the woman he had just married. Now, while he has a good job with an IT company, he is face to face with his one-night stand of the time, Lieve Breevoort. She is applying for the position of management assistant. Paul is upset, but pulls up. He decides to send a rejection letter and forget about the whole incident as soon as possible. But this time Lieve cannot be pushed aside so easily. He soon sees her as a dance teacher for his youngest daughter, as his wife's new squash partner and as a substitute at school. He is really starting to see her everywhere. Is he going crazy? No, it is worse than that. She's out for revenge and she's had a damn long time to prepare it... A hard-hitting

The Mammoth Book of Time Travel SF by Mike Ashley Pdf

This thought-provoking collection not only takes us into the past and the future, but also explores what might happen if we attempt to manipulate time to our own advantage. These stories show what happen once you start to meddle with time and the paradoxes that might arise. It also raises questions about whether we understand time, and how we perceive it. Once we move outside the present day, can we ever return or do we move into an alternate world? What happens if our meddling with Nature leads to time flowing backwards, or slowing down or stopping all together? Or if we get trapped in a constant loop from which we can never escape. Is the past and future immutable or will we ever be able to escape the inevitable? These are just some of the questions that are raised in these challenging, exciting and sometimes amusing stories by Kage Baker, Simon Clark, Fritz Leiber, Christopher Priest, Kristine Kathryn Rusch, Robert Silverberg, Michael Swanwick, John Varley and many others.

Louder Than Hell by Jon Wiederhorn,Katherine Turman Pdf

The definitive oral history of heavy metal, Louder Than Hell by renowned music journalists Jon Wiederhorn and Katherine Turman includes hundreds of interviews with the giants of the movement, conducted over the past 25 years. Unlike many forms of popular music, metalheads tend to embrace their favorite bands and follow them over decades. Metal is not only a pastime for the true aficionados; it’s a lifestyle and obsession that permeates every aspect of their being. Louder Than Hell is an examination of that cultural phenomenon and the much-maligned genre of music that has stood the test of time. Louder than Hell features more than 250 interviews with some of the biggest bands in metal, including Black Sabbath, Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, Slayer, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Spinal Tap, Pantera, White Zombie, Slipknot, and Twisted Sister; insights from industry insiders, family members, friends, scenesters, groupies, and journalists; and 48 pages of full-color photographs.

Imola by Richard Satterlie Pdf

Calvin Samuels is a public defender with a passion for sticking by the underdog. His clients are desperate men and women with desperate cases. Like John Rogers. Although Samuels saved him from a life behind bars, he couldn’t save his life. Within months of his acquittal, Rogers’ body is fished from the Ohio River, two bullet holes in the back of his head. Police speculate his death was the result of a drug deal gone bad. Believing he failed a friend who depended on him, Samuels seeks redemption in the representation of Mark Alexander, accused of the brutal murder of two drug dealers. Needing to believe in his client’s innocence, however, Samuels is blind to clues that Alexander is not what, or who, he seems. Until he meets Allison Morris, Alexander’s former lover and the prosecution’s most damning witness. Could Alexander actually be Rogers’ murderer? But when the trial finally reaches its stunning conclusion, Samuels’ descent into the maelstrom has only just begun.
