Pages : 694
Book Description
All three books in Ed Duncan's 'Pigeon-Blood Red', a series of crime thrillers, now available in one volume! Pigeon-Blood Red: For underworld enforcer Rico Sanders, it seemed like an ordinary job: retrieve his boss's ruby necklace and teach the double-dealing cheat who stole it a lesson. But after the chase goes sideways, Rico has to move from the mean streets of Chicago to sunny Honolulu. There, the hardened hit man finds himself in uncharted territory, when innocent bystanders are embroiled in a crime. As Rico pursues his targets, hunter and prey develop an unlikely respect for one another, and Rico is faced with a decision: kill the couple whose courage has won his admiration, or endanger the life of the woman he loves? The Last Straw: After a carjacking goes bad, a teenage girl is marked for death by a crime boss. A black lawyer and a white enforcer with an unlikely history forge an alliance to protect the girl from a hit man with an agenda of his own. After they find out that the crime boss is the father of carjacker, Paul Elliott - lawyer and close friend of the witness’s family - begins counseling them. As the long-simmering feud between Rico and John D'Angelo reaches boiling point, bodies start to pile up - and old scores will be settled. Rico Stays: After Rico Sanders steps in to protect his girlfriend from a local mob boss’s nephew, all hell breaks loose. When the smoke clears, three goons lay dying where they’d stood. Fighting for his life, Rico needs a place to crash – a place where he wouldn’t be found. A place like the cabin owned by lawyer Paul Elliott, whose life Rico had saved more than once. But Paul’s girlfriend hasn't forgotten Rico’s dark history - or Paul’s fascination with him. Vengeful killers would soon be coming for him. But is he ready to face them one more time?

LeBron James
Author: Lew Freedman
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313343624
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 180
Book Description
LeBron James is simultaneously on the cutting edge of basketball greatness and as a cultural icon. Through the international exposure of the National Basketball Association and its televised games in more than 100 countries, and as a global marketing presence, the star of the Cleveland Cavaliers is rapidly becoming one of the world's most familiar faces. This biography traces the key events in the life of LeBron James during his dizzying rise to fame in high school to his emergence as the first overall pick in the NBA draft as an 18-year-old, to his carrying the underdog Cavaliers to the 2007 NBA Finals. Hyped relentlessly from the time he was a high school sophomore in Ohio, James has lived up to all advance billing and with his charm, smile, and extraordinary basketball skills. James' all-around talent and unselfishness on the court are the trademarks of his play that have made him one of the most feared scorers in the league, but also one of its most versatile rebounders and passers. This biography offers a well-rounded portrait James from the difficulties encountered being raised by a single mother and overcoming poverty, which at times caused the family to move from home to home. Lew Freedman of the Chicago Tribune chronicles the milestones in the life of LeBron James during his dizzying rise to fame. Also highlighted are James' remarkable endorsement deals, particularly his $90 million deal with Nike. The volume is rounded out with a timeline and a bibliography of print and electronic sources to provide suggested readings for students and sports fans alike.

Salupo’s Groceries
Author: Laurel Salupo
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1664170960
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 171
Book Description
Salupo’s Groceries is a beautiful written story about two young loves that met and married in Sicily. Carolina and Nicolo had their share of heartaches and happiness over the years. Nicolo was an Army Veteran from the Turkish Italian war. Together the newly married couple traveled from Sicily to America. Once they arrived in the land of the free, they settled in the Woodland area of Cleveland Ohio. Like many young European travelers, it took time to assimilate and plant roots like many immigrants of that time in the early 1920’s. Nicolo had many dreams: he wanted a home, and a neighborhood grocery store, but most of all he wanted a family. With the love of his life by his side, Carolina, they worked hard and achieved many of their goals. Life can be joyous and tragic, and it was for the Salupo family. Together as a family they pulled though tragedy, forging forward in life remembering the true inner strength of Nicolo, who was a husband and their loving father.
