BEYOND VENGEANCE by LARRY IGBON
About BEYOND VENGEANCE by LARRY IGBON
BEYOND VENGEANCE by LARRY IGBON
Synopsis
This is a thriller set in the north of England, where fear begets crime and crime begets killing. The violent extinction of a ruthless crime family unleashes bloody vendetta against a city’s police force.
******
For too long the city of Manchester seethed in the grip of vicious criminal gangs, they propagated a subculture of barbarism equal to anything catalogued from the Middle Ages. The Greater Manchester Police set their sights on the most vicious of these gangs, led by the Brewster family.
The GMP assembled a task force of gangbusters whose leader DI Stuart Corcoran declared a ‘zero tolerance’ policy on Brewster’s Fairfield Mob.
On a rainy, sticky night in 1999, Corcoran led his team into battle. It transpired to be the last stand for the brutal Brewsters, trapped in the Fairfield Arches; in the shadow of Manchester’s Piccadilly Station, they met their bloody end.
The GMP success at the Arches greatly subdued the other gangs and the citizens of Manchester now felt safe. Corcoran and his colleagues, DS Peter Enright and DC Kevin Jennings were the ‘Heroes of the Arches’.
Eleven years passed and without warning DC Jennings and his pregnant wife were brutally murdered. Detectives found a bone-chilling note at the scene promising more deaths. The note made mention of ‘my entire family’ and the GMP worked on that; they decided the note was from a surviving Brewster. They had been told that the Brewsters were all dead shortly after the battle at the Arches.
A new task force headed by Corcoran’s protégé, DCI Beverley Holland must find the killer before the remaining ‘Heroes’ are killed.
In a dark, unsettling atmosphere of hatred and determination, bodies begin piling up. The killer seems to know everything the police know, impossible as that may seem.
Enright travelled to the birthplace of the Brewsters in Ireland and discovered something devastatingly crucial to the case.
A recurring phenomenon in the stygian gloom was the young man in the black suit who seemed to be haunting the city streets; an evil aura dripped from him like filthy water from a cracked sewer pipe.
Bev Holland and her team work tirelessly to solve the case and every time they score a breakthrough, another victim is murdered. The GMP team is determined not to lose this battle and they are prepared to go to any lengths.

The Ugly Princess: The Legend of the Winnowwood by Henderson Smith
About The Ugly Princess: The Legend of the Winnowwood by Henderson Smith
What would you give up to be beautiful? I don’t mean attractive, or pretty or any other term you could conjure up to describe that thing most women seek to be or most men seek to be with.
I mean staggeringly beautiful, men falling at your feet with hopeless adoration as they gaze upon you dumbfounded. That beautiful. I could become that beautiful if I chose, but only with a steep price. Would you pay the price? Does that call to your heart?
It doesn’t call to mine. Yes, when I look at the girl in the mirror, I see a young woman of average height and slight build. I see her lovely emerald green eyes and I see her coarse, orange hair poking out in all directions like some unnatural haystack.
I see the forty-seven warts that line her face, which accompany one large lump and two small boils. You’d probably think that I would be more than eager to trade for the great gift of beauty because I know some, if not all of you, would call me hideous. But I don’t think of myself as ugly.
I think of myself as powerful, strong and fierce – for I have magical powers – powers that amaze and terrify me at times. And today is the most important day of my life, because today my mother will say the words over me and seal my fate. For I, Olive, am the last of the Winnowwood and this is my story.

Author Bio:
I’m an award-winning screenwriter and this is my first novel, which is based on the script I won the Austin Film Festival Screenwriting Award. It is about beauty and what beauty truly is. I dedicated it to: For all the girls who stand on the sidelines wishing they too could be beautiful. I hope you will let Olive show you how beautiful you truly are and the power that you already wield. Open your eyes to your own magic!
Beauty is an obsession for most women and I wanted to have an amazing heroine who was not beautiful, in fact, she’s rather ugly. But she is amazing and courageous and kind and incredible. Shouldn’t that trump beauty? Shouldn’t we know that we are so much more than what is on our face?
I grew up as a military brat who travelled the world with my family and we moved often (10 times before I was 12), which meant I had few friends, so my best friends became books that I would disappear into and love. I always liked to make up my own stories that involved all of my stuffed animals and the adventures we would have! Now, I want you to go on a new adventure with Olive, the ugly princess, who will amaze you.
Hell’s Chapel by Celia Kyle
About Hell’s Chapel by Celia Kyle
I’m Caith Morningstar: bar owner, leather wearer, shoe worshipper, werewolf, Orlando’s resident ass kicker and… Satan’s niece.
In the tween—between On High and Hell—I’ve got three rules: order, secrecy, and if you can’t manage that at least have some discretion. Wait, make that four: no one screws with me or my stuff. Orlando—land of that famous mouse—is my home and people are either gonna get in line or get out.
Except someone didn’t get that memo. Now, I’m gonna bust out my bat and smash some heads. I’ve got zombies demolishing my home, vamps chasing me, and on top of the normal violence in my life, I’m quickly falling for an angel.
I can handle the blood, gore, and frustration, but can I deal with the pain of loving—possibly losing—the angel Samkiel? Probably not, but I’m gonna try anyway.
Warning: Sometimes love gets buried in the flames of hell with a few dead bodies piled on top and it takes a while to dig it back out. When it comes to Caith and Sam… they definitely need more than one book to get the job done.
Part of the “Caith Morningstar” series:

Bait by Kasi Blake
In sixteen years, Bay-Lee has lived under multiple aliases, learned to fight with a variety of weapons, and has lied to everyone she’s met. Nothing surprises her anymore—or so she thinks. Then she gets two unexpected visitors in one night: a dead rock star and a reaper. The reaper issues a warning: It kills you on your birthday.
Only he doesn’t just mean her. Hunters are being slaughtered, good hunters, people who know what they’re doing. What chance does she have?
This isn’t the greatest time to be a hunter-in-training, but her father insists she join him at his secret school tucked away in New Zealand. As a descendent of the Van Helsing family, big things are expected of her. She won’t be getting special treatment, regardless of what the other students think.
Passing her classes and showing off her skills in battle take a backseat to survival. She must face wraiths, a shifter in disguise, and a hostile young man who hates her on sight. What is his problem anyway?
A dark prophecy looms closer, and students begin to die. Her mentor, Nick Gallos, knows a lot more than he’s willing to share. Like it or not, they will have to work together to save their fellow students, teachers, and each other.
They are destined to fall in love… but will they live long enough to find happiness? Or will they die on their birthdays?

I only wanted to Live
I am not a professional Author, I did wrote this book when I was close to 80 years of age. I wrote it according to my memory but I did lot of work, may be around 80% of the writing work, to study the historical facts so everything I wrote will be a historic document as well.
These are my memoir of my childhood. I was swept into the whirlwind of the 2nd World War and the Holocaust. The epic history is narrowed down to my struggle to survive the war. my nickname was Leosz. From age 7 to age 13 I endured all the horrors that the Holocaust brought upon the Jewish people. Life hanged on split-second timing, decisions were made in impossibly cruel circumstances and all these required incredible resourcefulness, luck and the help of others, even Germans. In the Krakow Ghetto, I was saved from three mass deportations to the death camps, escaped the ghetto, survived for several weeks pretending to be a Polish street child, and then went into hiding. Close to death I was finally liberated In concentration camp Mathausen by the American army on May 5th, 1945.
After the liberation I found that I lost all my family and my relatives, I did overcome the tragedy and until today lived a full happy life with my wife, two kids and five grandchildren. I am 84 years old.

Fuel (Best Laid Plans Book 1)
About Fuel (Best Laid Plans Book 1):
Trevor Smith has a pretty good idea of the razor’s edge modern society walks, with the vast majority of people completely dependent on reliable sources of electricity and gas, and everything shipped to them at the last possible instant. When a major attack cripples the US’s oil refining capabilities and destroys a significant portion of US fuel reserves, the nation practically runs out of gas overnight. It’s time to see if the preparations he and his cousin Lewis Halsson have made in their hometown of Aspen Hill are enough to carry them through the disaster.
His friend Matt Larson isn’t quite so fortunate, caught unprepared and unaware of the grim reality of the situation when a society completely dependent on fuel runs out. He finds himself struggling to adjust as everything falls apart around him, fleeing one step ahead of the chaos to reach Aspen Hill. Now he must depend on his own strength and ingenuity and the help of family and friends to see him through.
Yet even Matt can consider himself lucky compared to most. The vast majority of people living in the nation’s cities are on the move, fleeing population centers in all directions with no food and nowhere to go as starvation looms. Meanwhile emergency services scramble to stay ahead of the disaster with insufficient resources, faced with the impossible prospect of aiding tens or even hundreds of millions of desperate refugees.
A number of those refugees are making their way to Aspen Hill, which presents a crisis of its own for a town that has nothing to spare and is struggling to care for its citizens.

Author Bio:
My name is Nathan Jones. I’ve been a longtime reader of post-apocalyptic fiction and like to explore various scenarios in which disasters could occur. One interest has been observing just how fragile our modern life is, and how little it would take to send us back to a low tech existence that people in general no longer possess the knowledge or skills to survive in. That interest inspired me to write and publish my completed post-apocalyptic series Best Laid Plans.
When I’m not writing I enjoy spending time with family and hiking, especially up in the mountains.
