Yet the organization that shocked the world with their relentless brutality has a final act of terror to execute. An attack that will be beyond human imagination. Through kidnap and extortion, they have put together the means to develop a final chemical weapon. Nerve gas, of which a small quantity will lay waste to an entire city. An American city. For many, the ‘End of Days’ is imminent.

A US Navy SEAL four man fireteam under Lieutenant Kyle Nolan is sent to eliminate the threat, and they link up with some unlikely allies. When their tiny force is ambushed, and trapped underground, escape is impossible. Still, they must escape. The SEALS are all that stands in the way of the worst terrorist attack in history. Out of time, outgunned, and out-maneuvered, they battle on against overwhelming odds to escape the trap they are in and prevent the mass slaughter of millions of innocent Americans.

The Bakery (Stonebrooke Holidays Book 1)

Addie Jones was a woman with a plan. Or at least she had been until the manager she’d hired for her bakery embezzled all her funds and absconded to parts unknown. Now she’s facing ruin and her number one enemy, Math. With only a few short months left to turn her finances around, she needs to find a new slogan to live by. Her current catchphrase “Don’t make me math” simply won’t do.

Vaughn McAdams agreed to do a solid for his cousin and help her bestie recover from her recent financial losses. He hadn’t counted on Fate smacking him upside the head with a rolling pin, or the zany baker who now calls herself his boss. Her inability to balance a checkbook has him almost as frustrated as her insistence on keeping their relationship strictly professional.

A Dark and Bloody Ground: A True Story of Lust, Greed, and Murder in the Bluegrass State

Kentucky never deserved its Indian appellation “A Dark and Bloody Ground” more than when a small-town physician, seventy-seven-year-old Roscoe Acker, called in an emergency on a sweltering evening in August 1985. Acker’s own life hung in the balance, but it was already too late for his college-age daughter, Tammy, savagely stabbed eleven times and pinned by a kitchen knife to her bedroom floor. Three men had breached Dr. Acker’s alarm and security systems and made off with the fortune he had stashed away over his lifetime.

The killers—part of a three-man, two-woman gang of the sort not seen since the Barkers—stopped counting the moldy bills when they reached $1.9 million. The cash came in handy soon after when they were caught and needed to lure Kentucky’s most flamboyant lawyer, the celebrated and corrupt Lester Burns, into representing them.

Barbarians at the Gate is the classic account of the fall of RJR Nabisco. An enduring masterpiece of investigative journalism by Bryan Burrough and John Helyar, it includes a new afterword by the authors that brings this remarkable story of greed and double-dealings up to date twenty years after the famed deal. The Los Angeles Times calls Barbarians at the Gate, “Superlative.” The Chicago Tribune raves, “It’s hard to imagine a better story…and it’s hard to imagine a better account.” And in an era of spectacular business crashes and federal bailouts, it still stands as a valuable cautionary tale that must be heeded.
