The fourth title in the popular Harpur and Iles series. When Bernard 'Tenderness' Mellick maims Ivor Wright with a blowtorch, Wright retaliates from his hospital bed by sending his men to kidnap Mellick's 11-year old son. At the same time, a colleague of Harpur's, Hubert Scott, is the subject of an internal investigation. Scott's longterm underworld contact just happens to be 'Tenderness' Mellick, and it is Mellick's plight which gives Scott an idea that if successful, could tie up a number of loose ends and clear him in the eyes of the department. 'Extraordinary and electrifying' Val McDermid

The Skinner Family History

Second Edition

By: Ira James Skinner Jr.

The surname Skinner is an English trade and business name of approximately the twelfth century when trade names like Brewer, Baker, Chandler, and Smith came into existence as family names. Skinner is the name adopted as a dealer in skins, furs, and hides. The Skinner Company of London received a charter of incorporation during the reign of Edward III and has a coat of arms, which is discussed later from that period. The Skinner families are found all over England. The Skinner families are in Cowley and Devonshire in London and in Essex, Sussex, Dewlish, the Isle of Wight, and other counties as well. This book gives the history of the Skinner family from 1200 to the present time and connects six immigrants that is listed in the introduction of the book.

Broadmoor

By: James Weaver

Home? Why must there be a place called Home? Why is there, somewhere in each human soul, a void that can be filled only by remembrance of that special place? In Broadmoor, four aging brothers, seeking answers and guided by memory, take you with them on a journey back to their childhood, back to poverty and hard times, to betrayal and desertion, and to years of back-breaking labor and struggle to survive. As you follow, you will meet a loving but imperfect family, faithful friends, a few men and women of great honor, and a mother whose character and strength and devotion surpasses all. You will laugh and sometimes cry and, in the end, you will find, as the brothers did, that home is where memory begins and ends; the place where, when all is done, a heart can find sanctuary and certitude and safety and peace. And you will find that, for these brothers, home is a place called Broadmoor.

Laundry and Bourbon

A Comedy in One Act

By: James McLure

THE STORY: The setting is the front porch of Roy and Elizabeth's home in Maynard, Texas, on a hot summer afternoon. Elizabeth and her friend Hattie are whiling away the time folding laundry, watching TV, sipping bourbon and Coke, and gossiping about the many open secrets which are so much a part of small-town life. They are joined by the self-righteous Amy Lee who, among other tidbits, can't resist blurting out that Roy has been seen around town with another woman. While the ensuing conversation is increasingly edged with bitter humor, from it emerges a sense of Elizabeth's inner strength and her quiet understanding of the turmoil which has beset her husband since his return from Vietnam. He is wild, and he is unfaithful, but he needs her, and she loves him. And she'll be waiting for him when he comes home-no matter what others may say or think.

Sun Lake

By: James William Gibson

Sun Lake is a story of two families that live on adjacent ranches. It is also a story of Mark and Marty, two young men seriously wounded in combat and the mental challenges that caused. Sun Lake follows the lives of their families and of their life long friendship. Sun Lake will bring a smile to your face and tears to your eyes. There is humor as well as serious and life threatening incidents in the story. He looked up with tear filled eyes and a pained look and told them, "I just can't leave her out here alone!" He was jealous that Misty was getting the attention he wanted from Carla. Looking angrily at him she said, "My mom hasn't been dead very long and already you are about to replace her with that gold digger." Well, guess maybe this is where you should spank me . that is if you think you're man enough! With a gun and liquid courage, he might just go on into the headhunter's village and, as he put it, "Scare the hell out of them!" Passengers and crew were thrown into the raging, rocky hell that was the Orinoco River there.
