Book Description
From a New York Times–bestselling author—a true crime story of a Texas teen’s 2008 plot to murder her parents for not approving of her boyfriend. “Readers will be haunted by Greenberg’s . . . eminently readable true crime tale.”—Publishers Weekly Alba, Texas. In 2008, Terry Caffey, a home health care aide and aspiring preacher, was asleep in his bedroom when he woke up to a barrage of bullets. His wife, Penny, was killed instantly. With blood pouring from five bullet wounds, among other serious injuries, Terry tried—but failed—to save his two youngest children before crawling out of his burning house. Meanwhile, Terry’s sixteen-year-old daughter, Erin, was missing… Once Erin was found by local authorities, she claimed she had been kidnapped—but could not remember the details. It wasn’t until Terry was fully conscious that he could explain what had really happened: He’d been shot, point-blank, by two young men. One of them he did not know; the other was Charlie James Wilkinson. Charlie was Erin’s nineteen-year-old boyfriend, forbidden from entering the Caffey home. Until Erin helped Charlie come up with a plan to do away with her disapproving parents once and for all . . .

Pages : 302
Book Description
Teddie Dahlin tells us about her short romance with the legendary Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols, during the Norwegian leg of their tour. She became their English translator, which until recently was unknown to many outsiders. This is a book has been shelved for over 30 years. Teddie has now decided the time is right to publish her memoirs in Sid's memory. This story centres around the connection they developed and in complete contrast to how he was portrayed by the media. The book shows you the real Sid that she met in the summer of 1977. It happened to an ordinary teenage girl who had no idea about punk or who Sid was. All Teddie knew is for those few short days they had a whirlwind, teenage romance, never to be forgotten. Yet sadly, they had parted all too soon. It is a tale that has lain unspoken for far too long.

Pages : 418
Book Description
New romance and dangers abound in this companion to the crowd-pleasing Wicked Fox. After the events of Wicked Fox, Somin is ready to help her friends pick up the pieces of their broken lives and heal. But Jihoon is still grieving the loss of his grandmother, and Miyoung is distant as she grieves over her mother's death and learns to live without her fox bead. The only one who seems ready to move forward is their not-so-favorite dokkaebi, Junu. Somin and Junu didn't exactly hit it off when they first met. Somin thought he was an arrogant self-serving, conman. Junu was, at first, amused by her hostility toward him until he found himself inexplicably drawn to her. Somin couldn't deny the heat of their attraction. But as the two try to figure out what could be between them, they discover their troubles aren't over after all. The loss of Miyoung's fox bead has caused a tear between the world of the living and the world of the dead, and ghosts are suddenly flooding the streets of Seoul. The only way to repair the breach is to find the missing fox bead or for Miyoung to pay with her life. With few options remaining, Junu has an idea but it might require the ultimate sacrifice. In usual fashion, Somin may have a thing or two to say about that. In Vicious Spirits, Kat Cho delivers another beguiling and addictive read full of otherworldly dangers and romance.
