Описание:

On the bridge over Patersons Great Falls, a retired state trooper is murdered by a girl in a grammar school uniform. The victim was the beloved uncle of Jack Colt, a private investigator descended from the inventor of the revolver. While investigating his uncles murder, Colt realizes that it is intertwined with two other cases of his. These involve the family secrets of extremely powerful New Jersey figures, including the governor, a judge, and a mob boss.
In New Jersey Noir, William Baer reinvigorates the detective genre while exploring the Garden States rich cultural history, glamor, and gore. Baers novel is fast-paced and utterly gripping, brimming with intrigue and suspense.

PRAISE FOR NEW JERSEY NOIR:

An accomplished poet, playwright, and short-story writer, William Baer has turned to crime, creating a brilliant debut novel, the hard-boiled whodunit New Jersey Noir. If youre looking for classic noir elements, youll find them here, in spades. And youll find fine literary elements here, as well: precise prose, perfect pacing, stunning imagery, complex characterization, grand historical and cultural contexts, and a superb sense of place. More than anything else, New Jersey Noir is a loving tribute to the Garden State by a writer who appreciates its grime as much as its glory.
- Hollis Seamon (Jersey girl, born and raised), author of Somebody Up There Hates You

Not since Donna Tartts The Secret History have I read a novel as mesmerizing, engrossing, and delectable as William Baers New Jersey Noir-a book so compelling that I was forced to drop everything and commit myself for several hours to experiencing, vicariously, the strange and haunted darkness that is the shadow world of this novel. In prose as fast-moving as a bullet, Baer compels the reader to keep flipping pages more and more rapidly. Baers writing is taut and gut-wrenching. New Jersey Noir and Baers talent presage a brilliant career for this wonderfully gifted writer.
- Terri Brown-Davidson, author of Marie, Marie, Hold On Tight

Jack Colt, the private investigator in William Baers New Jersey Noir, romances the genre to the suspenseful effect that JJ Jake Gittes achieves in Roman Polanskis acclaimed Chinatown. In place of technicolor LA, however, Baer evokes a cinematic chiaroscuro New Jersey, specifically Paterson, its history and politics limned over a baseline of Springsteen, doo-wop, and Whitney Houston. In the early pages of this compelling mystery when Colt muses that his fellow detective, Luca Salerno, was tough all right, but not tough enough to look into the heart of darkness, the allusion to Joseph Conrad alerts us that we are in for a more trenchant narrative than a gumshoe and dames thriller. Baer fulfills by deftly executing the universal themes of incest, adultery, madness, and undisguised evil rising out of the swamps of the Meadowlands and beyond.
- Dennis Must, author of Hush Now, Dont Explain

Описание: The revolutionary novel that catapulted readers into the future, from the father of science fiction, H.G. Wells.
"I've had a most amazing time...."
So begins the Time Traveller's astonishing firsthand account of his journey eight hundred thousand years beyond his own era--and the story that launched H. G. Wells's successful career. With a speculative leap that still fires the imagination, Wells sends his brave explorer to face a future burdened with our greatest hopes...and our darkest fears. A pull of the Time Machine's lever propels him to the age of a slowly dying Earth. There he discovers two bizarre races--the ethereal Eloi and the subterranean Morlocks--who not only symbolize the duality of human nature, but offer a terrifying portrait of tomorrow as well.
Published in 1895, this masterpiece of invention captivated readers on the threshold of a new century. Thanks to Wells's expert storytelling and provocative insight, The Time Machine will continue to enthrall readers for generations to come.

Описание: Hooker, an affable young leather jacketed tow truck driver rules the nights in South San Jose. He reigns from high in the cab of a custom-built giant tow truck that is as powerful as the heart that he keeps hidden under the "rebel without a cause" skin. Cruising the highways and streets in the heady days of the early Silicon Valley, Hooker lives out his life with one hand on the steering wheel, one hand on the gearshift. Four radios, two of which are illegal, are his ears. Life is cherries as he tours his fiefdom with a one-eyed battle-torn oversized orange cat named Box. Named for the box Hooker found him in, as well as the box between the seats of the cab that he spends his time in. The only three people Box lets touch him are Hooker, Manny the retired Detective and the love of Box's life; the 500lb owner of the Night Dispatch: Dolly. Spring is coming on in the valley, and it's is rapidly becoming t-shirt under the leather jacket weather; Hooker's favorite time of the year. The police have long turned a blind eye to his "rapid response time", and the waitress at his favorite midnight eatery is warming up to him. Life is going just great. That is until he witnesses the first of several cops shot to death in front of him by an unseen assailant. The killing spree is executed on Highway Patrol, city cops as well as sheriff deputies. San Jose is paralyzed as everyone searches for answers. Only Hooker and his "family" has his ear close enough to the murmur that can speak to the evil that walks the streets at night taking the city's and county's finest. But when it becomes personal, can Hooker find the killer; before the killer finds Hooker.

Описание:

Jolie "Rocket" Richards walks free after seven years of prison. Of all the stories in prison, her innocence was widely believed and accepted. She just doesn't think anyone on the outside thought she was framed. After all, it was her large hunting knife stuck in her mother's chest. Being an only child, she was the only one who stood to inherit or profit.

As she returned to the tranquil reaches of the Santa Ynez Valley, all she says she wants is to get her life back. Her life as a pro rodeo rider is long gone. But as for being the best horse trainer on the central California coast... that was going to take some time and trust.

Sitting at the end of the bar was easy. Being the town drunk and occasional tramp would take some work. Her friend and owner of the Roadhouse takes some convincing but is in all the way--as long as she can trust him.

But just as her path is becoming smooth, a rifle bullet tears up her left shoulder and her life. Attempted murder would beg too many questions, and so she sneaks away to recover in Montana on her uncle's ranch.

While her shoulder heals, Jolie begins to understand where her strength comes from -- she also learns new places to draw even more.

As she returns to the Santa Barbara coast, she brings new friends and a dog most view as a Hellhound. Her mission becomes focused--to find her mother's killer and the person who tried to kill her. One way or another, it is time for vengeance and justice.
