The American Joes by novelist Don Otey reveals the plan of a small group of modern-day patriots who vow to return the country to the federalist principles of its Founding Fathers. Working over decades, these men and the protégés they groom have worked peacefully from within to return the government to conformance with the U.S. Constitution. In constant fear of exposure, they move slowly to reverse the trend toward socialism and big government. The quintessential hero of the novel is 'the American Joe' personified by four dedicated achievers. Their initial foes are domestic and international special interests, but they soon find the greatest threat of all is from within-corrupt, self-serving politics. Written in tense, nail-biting prose, this political thriller could be ripped from today's headlines. It is a cautionary tale that puts the reader on guard to a basic truth: each one of us shares the responsibility for insisting on a return to the principles that made our country great.

Tank Hill

A Tale of Suspense and Horror

By: Don Otey

Dave Owens, a successful young businessman, is trying to repair a marriage he has seriously damaged with alcohol and addiction to work. Then a new and frightening challenge confronts him. His older brother Kyle is viciously beaten and lies in the hospital. In near panic, Dave rushes back to Springlake, his boyhood hometown, in Virginia. A chilling puzzle begins to take shape. It involves a nearly forgotten incident during the Owens brothers' youth and Dave's personal nemesis, Tank Hill. The brothers and their friends are being stalked by a sadistic killer who fears what they may remember. He sets out to eliminate them one by one in horrific ways. Along the way an enticing young woman threatens to detour Dave's efforts to set his personal life straight. He struggles with his feelings while the maniac killer breathes down his neck. The local sheriff makes life difficult for Owens until he uncovers the lawman's real motivation for his animosity. The spirit of a young Confederate soldier comes to Dave's aid and Owens experiences a jarring epiphany on a battlefield of some 140 years ago. The heart-stopping outcome is one that neither Dave nor his brother could have anticipated.

Guild of Deceit

By: Don Otey

The thug was dragging Karen away when Pete finally mustered the strength to pull himself to a sitting position. He tried to move toward the door, but they had already exited. Pete watched them pass the window and the biggest, ugliest man he had ever laid eyes on literally threw Karen into the elevator. Jumbo tucked a gun into his shoulder holster. Pete flashed back to Billy's description of Percy the manimal. He'd heard Karen call his name. At least there apparently weren't two gruesome men in the world that were as ugly as this one. Pete would give a million bucks right now for a shotgun to blow Percy's ass all over the hotel. Helpless against the armed giant in his present condition, Pete could only slump to the floor as they drove away. What seemed like hours later he slowly clawed his way up the side of the bed. He searched for the telephone to alert Jim Hardin. If she really intended to take the hoodlum to the CD's, Jim was in immediate danger. Pen's phone rang emptily until the answering machine picked up. Pete did all he could at the moment.

They Saved the Crops

Labor, Landscape, and the Struggle Over Industrial Farming in Bracero-era California

By: Don Mitchell

At the outset of World War II, California agriculture seemed to be on the cusp of change. Many Californians, reacting to the ravages of the Great Depression, called for a radical reorientation of the highly exploitative labor relations that had allowed the state to become such a productive farming frontier. But with the importation of the first braceros—“guest workers” from Mexico hired on an “emergency” basis after the United States entered the war—an even more intense struggle ensued over how agriculture would be conducted in the state. Esteemed geographer Don Mitchell argues that by delineating the need for cheap, flexible farm labor as a problem and solving it via the importation of relatively disempowered migrant workers, an alliance of growers and government actors committed the United States to an agricultural system that is, in important respects, still with us. They Saved the Crops is a theoretically rich and stylistically innovative account of grower rapaciousness, worker militancy, rampant corruption, and bureaucratic bias. Mitchell shows that growers, workers, and officials confronted a series of problems that shaped—and were shaped by—the landscape itself. For growers, the problem was finding the right kind of labor at the right price at the right time. Workers struggled for survival and attempted to win power in the face of economic exploitation and unremitting violence. Bureaucrats tried to harness political power to meet the demands of, as one put it, “the people whom we serve.” Drawing on a deep well of empirical materials from archives up and down the state, Mitchell's account promises to be the definitive book about California agriculture in the turbulent decades of the mid-twentieth century.

Kiss the Panther

By: Don Otey

I looked up at the Panther hovering over me, blond hair flying, face grimacing with pain. Then I saw it! those long, sharp teeth looked bigger than ever, and they were aimed at my face. I kicked at the Panther's legs and they buckled, but the hideous animal skull swung high above my head. "Kiss the Panther, O'Neill!" my enemy shouted. Ron O'Neill just wants to write fiction and enjoy the good life in Florida. A sadistic serial killer shatters his peaceful existence by leaving quotes from Ron's books at scenes of horrific murders. O'Neill and his policeman friend Trent Gable set out to snare the killer, whose twisted mind takes on the identity of the Florida Panther. Their search takes them into homeless camps, deep into the Everglades, and into the habitat of the wild panthers. Ron's friends and family are terrorized by the killer as the writer and his friend close in. O'Neill's life is crumbling, and he casts a suspicious eye at every person he meets. The fast-paced action climaxes when Ron O'Neill at last learns the true identity of the Panther in a confrontation that threatens to bring his own life to a painful end.
