Sinopse

Test of Evil (based partly on true events) 

Genre: Fiction, Psychological Thriller, , Mystery, Suspense, Mental psychopathy, courtroom

Test of Evil
 is based partly on real events that took place in our time, in any well-known and ordinary country and city. This is an evil and deceptive psychological thriller about the heinous and shocking primal murder of a child whose only depravity was his very existence. His dark intentions caused the murder of the child and the piling up of his intentions in front of the police who stubbornly and patiently examine and investigate to catch the perpetrator of the murder.
Test of Evil pushes readers into the social fallout resulting from the murder of seven-year-old Isaac Manis. As an investigation into his wrongful death ensues, the terrible forces of deception and manipulation challenge the virtues of truth and justice in a seemingly "upright" society.
After seven-year-old Yitzhak Manis was kidnapped from his home and murdered, Lieutenant Michael "Mickey" Holmes, a detective specializing in unsolved crimes, is assigned to investigate the case. Soon, Mickey finds himself entangled in a complex narrative woven by unknown hands. As the pressure mounts by the minute, they pin the blame on Joshua Solomon, a mysterious leader of a nearby religious cult with a long record of child abuse. Although Solomon appears to be a prime suspect, Mickey's deputy, Wally, does not seem convinced. The investigation continues as Solomon awaits trial. Meanwhile, the investigators look inward to discover the truth about young Isaac's private life. A child of a broken home, Isaac's environment is dysfunctional at best. His father, Avraham, treats him with extreme resentment. His stepfather, Gideon, sees him as nothing more than a nuisance. Suspicion begins to brew in the minds of the investigators as they uncover clues about the past lives of all the suspects. Could these revelations be the key to uncovering the truth, or are things really as they seem? Eventually, Solomon was accused of the crime. All efforts to clear his name turned out to be invalid. Just as he prepares to receive punishment, the terrifying truth is revealed. The story is told in a series of quick scenes that heighten the tension and take the reader to a tense conclusion. The Test of Evil is a novel that illustrates a clear picture of a society full of repulsive, indulgent, and psychotic characters. Perfect for lovers of intrigue, thrillers, suspense, and murder mysteries, this is a book recommended to all thriller and thriller lovers as it sheds light on the darkest and most hidden parts of polite society..

    His latest job is to catch the one that got away…three times. 
     
    Filipino-American bounty hunter Domingo has made a career of catching criminal undocumented immigrants. He’s the best in the business—and it isn’t lost on him that he’s so good because of his similarities to his targets. Despite Domingo’s claims that he is unsympathetic to their plight, yet spends his spare moments on stakeouts and in between jobs writing a book of advice for aspiring immigrants. Brash, funny, and candid, he compiles the names of all the people he’s apprehended, documenting the hazards of his profession, and imparting advice to foreigners who dare to dream of life in America. 
     
    Domingo’s latest job is finding biracial Filipino woman Monica Reed—for the third time. Monica is the only fugitive who has ever escaped him, and the only one he’s ever released, against orders. As he embarks on a third and final hunt for her, Domingo uncovers a dangerous truth that Monica was determined to publicize—even though it put her life in danger. And as he chases her around the country, despite his agreement to arrest people like Monica, Domingo finds himself taking her side. Flushing out immigrants whose biggest crime was clinging to the American Dream pales in comparison to getting justice for a woman who he discovers was living in the shadows, but was only ever searching for the truth. 
     
    Full of action and humor, MULTO is also a meditation on what it means to be unwelcome and unwanted in a country you love and the sacrifices such love requires.

    When Olive Wallace offers to take several friends and relatives on a once-in-a-lifetime bus tour through post-WWII Europe, they all jump at the chance—even though Olive can be petty, demanding, and judgmental. But do they really care about seeing the wonders of Europe—the magnificent Roman temples and the majesty of Carcassonne, an ancient, fortified city in southern France—or are they just trying to stay in Olive’s good graces? Olive Wallace, after all, is extremely wealthy. And she is extremely outspoken about who she intends to leave her money to—or not leave it to—when she dies. Olive changes her will on a whim, and every person on the trip knows it. On a bridge near Avignon, Olive is accidentally bumped into the river—or was she pushed? Days later, she is suspiciously nudged down the steps at the Nimes Colosseum. When Olive suffers a third accident in the narrow cobblestone streets of Carcassonne, she becomes convinced that somebody—one of her closest friends, perhaps—is out to murder her!
