Summary

Step into the dark and gripping world of Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment, a timeless psychological thriller that challenges the very notions of guilt, morality, and redemption.
In this unforgettable novel, Dostoevsky explores the troubled mind of Rodion Raskolnikov, a young man driven to commit an unspeakable crime. Battling inner demons and the pressures of society, Raskolnikov's journey through guilt, despair, and eventual spiritual awakening is a compelling portrayal of the human condition. Crime and Punishment immerses readers in an intense narrative of moral ambiguity, where every choice has consequences and redemption might be just within reach.
Perfect for readers who enjoy profound philosophical explorations wrapped in an absorbing, fast-paced narrative, this book is as relevant today as when it was first published. Dostoevsky's masterful storytelling weaves together complex characters and ethical dilemmas in a way that captivates and challenges, leaving readers reflecting long after the final page.
Named one of the Greatest Novels of All Time, Crime and Punishment has garnered praise from literary critics and readers alike. The New York Times called it "a novel that transcends time and resonates deeply with modern-day readers." Countless 5-star reviews on Amazon attest to its profound impact: "A must-read for anyone seeking to understand the depths of human psychology."

    The Contract 
    There’s a contract out on Brett Jacobs. He knows it has something to do with Mallette, but he keeps hearing the name of Harper. There are multiple teams of hitmen scouring the city streets for him, all looking for a chance at a big payday. Even Gunner now has a contract out on him. It will all culminate in a final, bloody mess inside a warehouse. Will Jacobs and Gunner make it out alive? Or will one of them succumb to the contract that was placed upon their heads? 
    The Connection 
    Rich Mallette is nothing but a distant memory. But with him out of the picture, it doesn’t mean Brett Jacobs is living on easy street. With the city wide open for a new leader for the criminal element, new prospects emerge, hoping to take over. And that means Jacobs will get drawn into another war. Now the question will be, who gets dragged in with him? Not only will new players in town look to notch Jacobs’ name on their belts, but Eddie Franks also has a bullseye on his back. Jacobs has his hands full in protecting those closest to him, as well as seeking revenge on those who have been targeted because of him. 
    The Conflict 
    With Wilson Ames now his number one focus because of what he did to his friend, Eddie Franks, Jacobs is willing to do anything to get his revenge. And that includes teaming up with people he normally wouldn’t. But Ames will not go down without a fight. He will attempt to do what Rich Mallette couldn’t. He will try to finish The Eliminator and he will do it in any way possible. That includes using someone who appears to be getting closer to Jacobs’ affections. 
    It will all culminate in an action-packed and explosive finale as Jacobs tries to prevent history from repeating itself.

    "More than a thriller—it’s an escape from reality and the perfect tonic at the end of a hard day.”—Orlando Sentinel  
      
    It's not easy being the Godfather. All those secrets and all that guilt add up to a terrible burden—a weight that's killing Vincente Delgatto. When the old man travels to Key West for a visit with his illegitimate son—Joey Goldman, the unlikely hero of FLORIDA STRAITS—Joey floats the idea of a conscience-easing memoir, to be written in collaboration with a local reporter.  
      
    It's a well-intentioned but extremely dangerous idea, since no one—not the Mafia, not the FBI, not the legitimate heir to the Delgatto family business—wants to see that memoir published. Will Vincente live long enough to get a lifetime's worth of secrets off his chest? Will writer Arty Magnus ever actually finish a book? For that matter, will Bert the Shirt and his chihuahua Don Giovanni ever enjoy a completely successful walk, and are there punishments enough on earth for Gino, the ingrate son who'd rat out his own father? 
      
    Balancing suspense and humor, double-crosses and tenderness, SUNBURN is both a full-throttle crime novel and a touching meditation on family, old age, and the many shades of human loyalty.
