When the daughter of a billionaire Hollywood director is found murdered after what appears to be a kidnapping gone wrong, Los Angeles Special Trials prosecutor Rachel Knight and Detective Bailey Keller find themselves at the epicenter of a combustible and high-profile court case. Then a prime suspect is revealed to be one of Hollywood's most popular and powerful talent managers -- and best friend to the victim's father. With the director vouching for the manager's innocence, the Hollywood media machine commences an all-out war designed to discredit both Rachel and her case.

Book Description

A new, original Jenkins & Burns novella from the author of Deadly Readings, Deadly Getaway, and Deadly Expressions. In the aftermath of the most destructive hurricane to hit the Jersey Shore in a century, Elise Burns and the other residents of Ocean Point are doing their best to recover and rebuild, which is why the recent string of robberies hits everyone especially hard. Fuming to catch the thief preying on those who have already suffered so much, Detective Mitch Burns will stop at nothing to solve the crimes. When another robbery turns to murder and a college student who’s interning at Elise’s newspaper is caught with the murder weapon in his hand, Mitch is convinced it’s an open-and-shut case. Elise knows the brash and ambitious aspiring reporter would go to any lengths to get a story, but was he a killer? Following clues from the intern’s notebooks and her own reporter’s gut sense, she sets out to track down a thief and a killer and exonerate a suspect she doesn't even like—even if she has to put herself in harm’s way to do it.

Growing up on the South Side of Chicago, Margot Langford was never afraid to compete – even with the boys. As a famed member of the Public Defenders Murder Task Force, Margot had reached the top of her game, defending everyone from petty thieves to alleged murderers. When it came to moving up the ladder of success, Margot let nothing and no one stand in her way. That all changed when Margot met her nemesis and new boss Justin Reilly, one of the city’s most respected trial lawyers at one of the city’s most prestigious law firms. A legal genius and ladies man, Justin was used to winning - and getting everything he wanted. He wanted Margot. When Justin hands Margot the case of a lifetime, she’s primed to prove herself. But in the midst of her race to the top, Margot is sidelined by her feelings for her charismatic and handsome client - Victor Rios: a man who was like catnip to women. And Margot was not immune. But Justin had plans for Margot that didn’t include competition from any man. Little did he know someone had plans for him as well; plans that would leave him dead on his office floor.

Book Description

Thousands of books and articles have been written about the murder of JFK, many of which are large in volume and short on facts. Quite often, these works try to reinvent the wheel, attempting to cover every single area of the assassination, as well as many tangential and unessential points, as well. The reader is often left exhausted and confused. The sheer volume of pages, conflicting facts, and theories leaves one unsatisfied and, quite frankly, not sure exactly what did happen on 11/22/63. This book seeks to separate the wheat from the chaff. It is 55-plus years later: it is time for real, honest answers in an easy-to-read and understand format. Proof of a conspiracy; no theories; to-the-point; a perspective on the assassination for the millennial age and beyond. Based on years—decades—of primary source research and having read countless books on the subject.
