How far will you go for love? Kevin Spivey murdered New Orleans' coke king, laundered $4 million in dirty assets, and set plans in motion to disappear. He's pulled the perfect crime, but Kevin has some more obstacles in his way. All flights out of Washington, D.C., are grounded under the heaviest storm to hit in close to a decade. Mykal Odadjian, his one and only love might be on the way. Of course, Mykal might not forgive Kevin, and the FBI might be en route. He's also got the Chicago cartel to worry about; he made his fortune selling them hot credit cards, and they'd be more than willing to turn his staged fatality into a reality. Kevin, faced with all the possible crises that would snap most men in half, faces this possibility: is he losing his mind, or has his late best friend been using him as a puppet for even darker purposes? As he waits for his future to unfold, Kevin has to face the demons of his past, demons that pushed him away from the straight and narrow, demons that could take his soul.

Amusingly strange and curiously compelling, Charles Addams' cartoons give a sly wink and a nod to scenes of everyday life in New York, Addams-style. His dark wit and deft hand lend themselves to subterranean themes of love and relationships, secrets and obsessions, subway stations and Lady Liberty. In Addams' Apple: The New York Cartoons of Charles Addams, we witness an artist inspired by the quirks of his fellow New Yorkers and the singular nature of their city-itself one of Addams' characters.In her foreword, Sarah M. Henry (Museum of the City of New York) highlights Addams' offbeat insights into the institutions and mindsets that define the city's culture. Luc Sante's preface explores Addams' unique place in American culture.Addams' Apple presents more than 150 cartoons created by "Chas" Addams (American, 1912-1988) throughout his prolific career; some have never been published before. More of the artist's work can be seen in The Addams Family: An Evilution (Pomegranate, 2010).
