Nightmare's Rage

Publisher: Blue Zoo

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
Killers aren’t born, they’re made. And she’s out to meet her maker. ★★★★★ “Wow! This book is smokin' hot--like a runaway train.” John Mariotti Seventeen years ago, a savage murder thrust Tess Williams into a life of suffering and brutality. But where such hardship would’ve broken most, Tess turned her rage into an unquenchable hunger for justice. Today, she finally gets a lead on that killer only to learn that he is now a feared crime boss, surrounded by vicious mobsters, hired thugs, and ruthless assassins. If Tess is to reach him, she must go through all of them. Outnumbered and outgunned, Tess knows this will probably be the job that puts her in the ground, but she doesn’t care as long as she nails her target first. But just when she thinks things can’t get any worse, the killer discovers she’s tracking him – the hunter becomes the hunted. Tess has no choice but to break all the rules that have kept her alive for so long. Dodging bullets, battling betrayals, and facing overwhelming odds, she storms into a supercharged showdown with the killer. Today, Tess’s violent story will come to an electrifying end. But whose end will it be? ★★★★★ “This was a roller coaster of a read… I Could Not Put it Down” Hillel Kaminsky ★★★★★ “Wow! An explosive installment… A great read with real insight and wisdom from a strong and very likeable protagonist” Julie Elizabeth Powell ★★★★★ “Talk about a nail-biting ending! Whew, I was exhausted by the time I had raced through this one.” Jan Simmons ★★★★★ “A breath-taking thrill ride. Don't start this one until you have time to read it through to the end because you won't want to put it down.” Mouse ★★★★★ “Steve Lee has created the perfect storm: action - strong characters - and well developed storylines. I try to read slowly because by the last page I do NOT want this book to end.” Sheryl Painter >>> Click Buy Now <<< Absolutely FREE! You get Black File 07 free with this book (see the Table of Contents for details). Standalone? Books 01-06 have self-contained stories, so while they’re more thrilling in order, you can read them out of sequence if you like. Nightmare’s Rage (book 07), Shanghai Fury (book 08), and Black Dawn (book 09) should be read in order, preferably after books 01-06, because small subplots come together in these books. But this isn't vital – each is a thrilling story in its own right. Dark Crime Thrillers This series is gritty, action-packed crime fiction, not Miss Marple, so expect some violence, occasional strong language, and every so often, a scene of a sexual nature. The paperback edition is 200 pages long. ★★★★★ "You won't want to put it down. I didn't." Dave * Do you love the action thriller series of Lee Child, Stieg Larsson, Vince Flynn, John Sandford, David Baldacci, James Patterson…? * Love assassin books, revenge thrillers, vigilante series, action novels, noir fiction, hard boiled mystery? * Then you’ll love Steve N.

Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
This book offers 101 passive programming ideas that are extendable, adaptable, customizable, and above all, stealable-so your passive programming never runs dry. Passive programming is a cheap, quick, fun way to make all library customers feel like part of the community. It can support reading initiatives, foster family engagement, encourage visit frequency, and coax interaction out of library lurkers-while barely making a dent in your programming budget. Passive programming can be targeted at children, teens, adults, or seniors; used to augment existing programs; and executed in places where staff-led programming can't reach. It can be light-footed, spontaneous, and easily deployed to reflect and respond to current news, media, library events, and even the weather. But even passive programming pros run out of ideas sometimes, and when that happens, they want a fresh, funny source of inspiration.
