Book Description
"Roger Vaillancourt was brutally murdered in a Minnesota cornfield 48 years ago. Until now, the silence surrounding his bizarre death has been deafening. Finally, through family, friends, and one priest's tireless investigation, the story of Roger Vaillancourt's gruesome death will be told. After a night of drinking and bizarre sexual teasing at The Kitten Club on October 6, 1957, in Mille Lacs County, MN, Roger Vaillancourt, 17, was allegedly hit by a car. His subsequent death was ruled accidental. Many people in the community knew more about Roger's death but remained silent due to dears of retaliation. The story has been buried for 48 years ... until now. More than just a story of torture, sex, murder, and an official cover-up, Raising Roger's Cross is a spiritual journey of reverence and healing."--Page 4 of cover.

Crossing California
Author: Adam Langer
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1440628297
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 516
Book Description
Crossing California is a cinematic and unforgettable look at the end of an era, the turning point when the idealism of the sixties gave way to the pragmatism of the eighties. California Avenue, in Chicago’s West Rogers Park neighborhood, separates the upper-middle-class Jewish families on the west from the mostly middle-class Jewish households east of the divide. This funny and heartbreaking novel, which spans the Iran hostage crisis through the inauguration of Ronald Reagan as president, tells the story of three families and their teenage children living on either side of California. It follows their loves, heartaches, friendships, and losses during a memorable and defining moment of American history.
