  ___________ 
  In the village of Castle Farthing a mean-spirited, spiteful, curmudgeonly old man is found drugged and strangled in the kitchen of his cottage, with no obvious clues to the perpetrator of the crime. 
  DI Falconer and Acting DS Carmichael are summoned from the police headquarters in the nearby town of Market Darley and begin to uncover a web of grudges against the old man and a sea of familial connections between those who knew him. 
  As the heat of July continues relentlessly, tempers flare, disturbing the usual rural calm of the village, and the normally imperturbable Harry Falconer. Faced with a crime with no obvious prime suspect and the idiosyncrasies of his new partner, Carmichael, is he gradually losing his grip on the case as the body count rises?

  "Equal parts vintage crime novel and Southern Gothic, full of aching ambivalence and hard compromises, and rounded off by bad faith and bad choices, One Foot in Eden is a veritable garden of earthly disquiet." —Los Angeles Times 
   
   
   
  Will Alexander is the sheriff in a small town in southern Appalachia, and he knows that the local thug Holland Winchester has been murdered. The only thing is the sheriff can find neither the body nor someone to attest to the killing. Simply, almost elementally told through the voices of the sheriff, a local farmer, his beautiful wife, their son, and the sheriff's deputy, One Foot in Eden signals the bellwether arrival of Ron Rash, one the most mature and distinctive voices in Southern literature.

  Oswald Is Innocent - Mark Lane's...

  In the turbulent aftermath of President John F. Kennedy's assassination on November 22, 1963, a maelstrom of theories and speculations emerged to unravel the enigma surrounding the tragic event. Amidst the cacophony of voices, Mark Lane emerged as a distinct figure, a staunch advocate for a meticulous investigation into the circumstances surrounding the murder and, more importantly, the accused assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. 
   
  Mark Lane, an attorney by profession, stepped into the spotlight with his fervent belief that the official narrative of Oswald acting alone in assassinating President Kennedy was not only flawed but perhaps deliberately misleading. Lane embarked on a relentless quest for truth, armed with skepticism and an unwavering commitment to uncovering the intricacies of the case. In his investigation, Lane meticulously dissected the evidence presented by the Warren Commission, the body tasked with examining the assassination. He scrutinized witness testimonies, ballistic reports, and the timeline of events leading up to that fateful day in Dallas. Lane's scrutiny revealed discrepancies and inconsistencies that fueled his suspicions and raised questions about the veracity of the official narrative. 
  One of Lane's primary contentions revolved around the "magic bullet" theory, a cornerstone of the Warren Commission's findings. He argued that the trajectory of the alleged single bullet, which purportedly caused multiple wounds to both President Kennedy and Texas Governor John Connally, was implausible. Lane's dissent echoed the sentiments of many skeptics who found it difficult to accept the official explanation of a lone gunman.

  When a terrorist organization claims responsibility for an attack on a cruise ship in the Caribbean, the victims seem random. But things aren’t always as they seem. 
  Asked to investigate quietly, Titus Black and the Firestorm team stir up a hornets nest within the U.S. government that threatens to expose some high-level officials. With Black and fellow agent Christina Shields in imminent danger, they find themselves embroiled in a global conspiracy with a new emerging threat, this time orchestrated to take place on American soil and more deadlier than before. 
  If you like Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan, Vince Flynn’s Mitch Rapp, Robert Ludlum’s Jason Bourne or Stephen Hunter’s Bob Lee Swagger, you’ll love Titus Black.
