Sinossi

The McMurphy family had a beautiful ranch and a loving family. Everything was going great until the dad of the family had a fatal heart attack.
 
          A rumor was going around that the McMurphy dad had buried his money in his yard. That was when everything became insane. People would come snooping around at night and bringing a shovel with them so they could dig in their yard. Even some Granny’s came snooping around. The Sheriff comes and puts the Shadow People, this is what they started calling them.
 
          They were hoping these Shadow People would stay away, but that wasn’t to be. Amid all the hassle they have had. Little Grace was kidnapped. They were determined to get the daughter no matter what they had to do.
 
          The jail was becoming to be a popular place. The jail stayed filled up because of all the Shadow People. The family was trying to think of ways to get people to realize they didn’t have money buried in their yard. They tried their best to be nice, but it was beginning to be a problem.
 
          The mom, Bella, was worried about kids. When they saw some Shadow People, they would get on their horses to shoo them off. They even put their bull in one of the pastures to help run off the people. The older kids would be helping. They didn’t hurt anyone. The Sheriff just put them in jail for a couple of days.

Hogg

Samuel R. Delany

The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.

Tender Betrayal

Rosanne Bittner

Stolen kisses and secret reunions lead to a passion that civil war cannot sever in this glorious historical romance from the bestselling author of Caress.   Beautiful, proud Audra Brennan feels like a stranger in a foreign land when she comes north from Louisiana to study music. But when she savors her first forbidden taste of desire in the arms of handsome lawyer Lee Jeffreys, his caresses spark a flame within her that burns away the differences between rebel and Yankee, all objections silenced by the fierce beating of two wild hearts falling impetuously, impossibly in love.   Suddenly cannon fire shatters the country. Principled, impassioned, and committed to a nation united, Lee answers the call to fight against the Confederacy, while Audra hurries home to a plantation shadowed by the darkening cloud of war. But in the most terrible of circumstances, can either afford to surrender their heart?   “Power, passion, tragedy and triumph are Rosanne Bittner’s hallmarks. Again and again, she brings readers to tears.” —RT Book Reviews
