You Might Feel a Little Prick by Reuben Leder Pdf

A screaming snowman plummets from the top floor of Cleveland Mercy Hospital—a decaying relic built before the first pandemic—and disappears into the snow drifts below. By the time his thawed corpse is discovered the following spring, a body count of incompetents, frauds, and crooks who call this chamber of horrors home, has snowballed. Could these "disappearances" have anything to do with the bogus—and disastrous—spine operation performed on local hero Nick Glass, a former ballplayer? Or the wrongful termination of Nick's fiancé, Dr. Julie Toffoli, an idealistic intern not afraid to speak truth to power? It's up to celebrity Homicide cop, Artemas Sikorski, working his careercapping case, to find out. Hysterically funny, troubling, and finally moving, YOU MIGHT FEEL A LITTLE PRICK answers the question we've all been asked by someone in a white coat: Just what is your level of pain?

A riveting novel from the number one bestselling author of The Bad Mother's Handbook Carol married young - to philandering Phil - and became a mother young - to highly-strung Jaz. Carol put up with Phil's infidelities: suffer in silence and keep the family together was her mantra. Not so Jaz. The moment she discovers her own husband Ian's errant ways - with a woman he barely knew - she throws him out of the house, changes the locks and bans him from seeing their toddler son Matty. In so many ways independent and strong, where her daughter is concerned Carol is a coward. When Jaz finds out that her mother has enlisted the support of Ian's father David to try to get her back together with Ian, Jaz is beyond furious and disappears with Matty. With a deft lightness of touch - and a dash of unexpected romance - Kate Long takes us into the heart of this mixed-up but utterly recognisable family who fight for what they believe in, even if it puts the closest members on opposing sides.

Sliding Down the Banisters of Life by Basil Jay Pdf

This may be a book about an ordinary life but it is more than that, much more. Firstly, if Basil Jays life has been ordinary, then the Bugatti Veyron Super Sports is a family saloon. In his life he has been described as many things. A Surveyor, a Businessman, and an Entrepreneur. A Musician, a Poet, a Writer and a Thespian. An Adventurer, a Chancer, a Receiver of Stolen Goods, an Alleged Money Launderer, a Tax Fugitive (as denounced in the Houses of Parliament). But most of all, a Husband, a Father and a Grandfather, and finally an ex-patriot living in a hot and balmy exile where he was effectively forced by an unrelenting tax inspector at the end of the nineteen-eighties (an action for which Basil is now able to offer his heartfelt thanks). He has been locked up for a killing in Afghanistan, witnessed a ritual stoning for adultery in Ghazni, held up by gunmen in the Khyber Pass, accused of drug smuggling in Pakistan, and spent almost five days, in a Turkish Bath in Istanbul whilst being coerced (unsuccessfully) to front a 300 million shakedown inTurkey just an ordinary life. Basil uses his fascinating life as the thread with which to lead the reader through the six decades of the twentieth- century that followed the second world-war. The bombed ruins of the FORTIES, the austerity of the FIFTIES, the music and burgeoning promiscuity of the SIXTIES, the hopes of the SEVENTIES, the aspirations of the EIGHTIES, the political incompetence but strange peace of the NINETIES, and into the so called, NEW DAWN of the Third Millennium. Basil is an able guide, there is not a decade where he has not been in the thick of the social, political, or business action. His story is the story of an ordinary man, living an ordinary life, but getting into the most outrageously extra-ordinary scrapes,(almost all of them of his own making). It is a living, and a social history written in the honest and hilarious style for which Basil Jay has become known. It is a read which can be thoroughly recommended

Inside Straight by Ray Banks Pdf

Graham Ellis is reliable, efficient, focused - the best pit boss Sovereign Casinos has, even if he does say so himself. But rumours of mental instability, along with the fallout of a particularly bloody night on the tables, relegate him to day shifts at a low-rent Salford club. There he catches the attention of local gangster Barry Pollard, who has every intention of making Graham his inside man and is about to make him an offer he can't refuse... "a fantastic novel; as much about the gambling pits of the north and the development of its protagonist as it is straight crime novel." - Crime Scene Scotland"a ridiculously entertaining tale ... an intense crime novel that breathes new life into a classic story" - Spinetingler Magazine"a marvellous read, I loved it" - The Crime Warp"a brilliant addition to the Ray Banks pantheon, and I suspect any fan of the crime/noir genre will agree. Highly recommended." - Ian Ayris, author of Abide With Me"Ray Banks writes with harshness, humour and elegance, and his punchy dialogue teems with vigorous authenticity." - The Times"Tough and assured . . . Banks is updating the noir novel with an utterly original sensibility." - Publisher's Weekly"Bleakly, desperately funny, Ray Banks offers us a glimpse of what Samuel Beckett might have read like had he turned his hand to crime fiction." - Crime Always Pays"Saturday's Child is a knock-out, written with the kind of energy and passion that far too few writers can muster. Fresh and fierce, it raises the bar for hardboiled fiction on both sides of the Atlantic." - New York Times Bestseller Laura Lippman, author of What The Dead Know"Banks wields language with a knifefighter's precision, with much the same result. From the first words to the last, this book flashes brilliantly." - Don Winslow, The Power Of The Dog and Savages"Banks is part of the post-Rankin generation for whom hardboiled is not just a state of mind but a reality. Tough-guy colloquial prose and a pace fast enough to skin a rabbit, at the service of a tale of down-and-dirty realism: this is fiery stuff." - Maxim Jakubowski, The Guardian"...terrific, brooding and chilling prose" - Tom Adair, The Scotsman"...a fine example of energetic, visceral and compelling storytelling... This is properly thrilling stuff." - The Big Issue In Scotland Ray Banks is the author of nine novels, including Dead Money, Angels of the North and Saturday's Child.

One in a Hundred by John W. Leeger Pdf

One In A Hundred covers the four-year Army hitch of a not-so-fictional character from the Midwest during the Vietnam war. Our hero ends up a long way from rice paddies, however 7,800 feet up on a plateau in Asmara, Ethiopia. The Army Security Agency was sort of a M*A*S*H for enlisted men, and the book records what seems like more than one persons share of unusual experiences. Keith Ellis calls One In A Hundred, A charming, funny, touching, honest story about life in the US Army during the surreal sixties, for those who were there and for those who are glad they werent. If you were there, you will find yourself chuckling at memories from your own experiences of Basic Training, new acquaintances, and bizarre duty stations. If you werent, youll be amused by the unlikely mix of people, places, and circumstances encountered during one mans four-year tour.
