Criminal Prosecutor

Kusske V: Criminal Prosecutor

Burning Yakima

The second book, called Flight from Yakima, describes the search in the mid 1970's for a rogue narcotics detective who escaped from the dragnet in the first book. Nicolas Cabot, former Army Special Forces soldier with a horrifying curriculum vitae of Vietnam war experiences and now a wanted, disgraced, narcotics detective is tracked to the Mexican Baja Peninsula by FBI Agent Marty Goodson and former foot patrolman Joe Creed. They elicit the help of Mexican Navy Captain Hugo Chavez, Nicolas Cabot's former Mexican girlfriend, a retired tunnel rat soldier, named Snake, and a host of other fascinating characters who assist in locating and confronting the indicted former soldier-narcotics detective in events that are remembered on the entire Baja Peninsula as the night of destruction.

The Flight From Yakima

Joseph Michael Creed is a young foot patrolman in a small western US city in the 1970's which is trying to emerge from its unrestrained, lawless past. He walks a downtown beat and becomes familiar with the street, its people, and the street action, which includes old secret tunnels dug under the city by the Chinese many years ago. Crime on the street keeps Officer Creed busy and he soon realizes corruption is also occurring at the highest levels of city and county governments. Karter Truman, the county prosecutor, is implicated in corruption when he refuses to prosecute a murderer. What can a lone beat cop do amongst all the fraud, exploitation and extortion perpetrated by the mob working with local government leaders? Joe's relationship with Miss Lydia Attard is put on hold because he believes his work and his past interfere with any possible future with Lydia. Connecting with a local FBI agent, Officer Creed and his partner, Jim Sorenson, join a task force that includes a US Attorney, a special projects FBI agent, an FBI electronics technician, four former Vietnam veterans skilled in tunnel warfare called Tunnel Rats, an FBI SWAT team, and a Catholic priest. The Fight for Yakima, as the media dubbed the deadly events, begins with a grand jury investigation and the issuance of forty-eight felony warrants resulting in an explosive gun battle between the two forces. After regrouping, the conflict explodes again in an area landmark that gets the attention of the world-wide media.

A Billionaire Bodyguard Adult Romance with Romantic Suspense and Forbidden Love

Drawn Together: Volume 1

Gefallen

Die Männer sehen verlobte Frauen nicht so an, wie Ras Sorrentino mich ansieht.
Ras Sorrentino ist der Unterboss des mächtigsten Clans der Camorra. Er ist auch Chaos und Gefahr in einem eleganten italienischen Anzug.
Als ich ihn das erste Mal traf, dachte ich, er sei da, um mich zu töten. Beim zweiten Mal wollte ich ihn töten.
Das dritte Mal war auf Ibiza, wo ich ihn quer durch die Kirche anstarrte, als meine Schwester seinen Chef heiratete.
Es ist nicht seine scharfe Zunge oder sein spöttisches Grinsen, das ich am meisten hasse. Es ist sein Blick.
Wie er sich verengt, wenn ich zusammenzucke. Wie er sich verhärtet, wenn er die blauen Flecken in meinem Gesicht bemerkt. Wie er auf meinen Verlobungsring starrt, als wolle er ihn von meinem Finger schmelzen.
Ich weiß, dass es eine schlechte Idee ist, mich so von ihm beeinflussen zu lassen. Schließlich hängt das Schicksal meiner Familie von meiner bevorstehenden Heirat ab und mein Verlobter interessiert sich nur wegen meines makellosen Rufs für mich.
Ein Ruf, den zu zerstören, Ras keine Skrupel zu haben scheint.
Gut, dass er und ich auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite der Welt leben.
Bis er mir sagt, dass er mit mir nach New York kommt.
Und bleibt.

UNTOLD MAFIA TALES FROM THE FBI TOP HOODLUM SQUAD

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERIn one of the most extraordinary true crime stories ever published, Broken Plea questions what really happened in the house on King Road--and the results of that investigation, still unfolding in real time, will astound you.Was there more than one killer? Had the crime scene been cleaned and sanitized before the police arrived? Was furniture staged to throw off detectives? In the aftermath of Bryan Kohberger's request to withdraw his guilty plea, there are more questions than ever before.In the early morning hours of November 13, 2022, four lives were lost in a brutal crime in Moscow, Idaho--and a nation demanded answers. When a suspect accepted a plea bargain, the story seemed settled. Justice, many believed, had been served.Broken Plea prophetically challenges that assumption.Drawing on court records, investigative timelines, witness statements, and apparently overlooked inconsistencies, this meticulously researched exposé examines how a rush to judgment may have shaped one of the most closely watched murder cases in recent memory. As the official narrative hardened, critical leads went unexplored, contradictory evidence was minimized, and alternative explanations faded from view.This book does not claim certainty where none exists. Instead, it asks the questions that were never fully pursued: What happens when pressure to close a case outweighs the search for truth? What evidence may have been sidelined, and why? And what are the consequences when a plea doesn't end scrutiny but invites it?Clear-eyed, unsparing, and deeply unsettling, Broken Plea reopens a case that never should have closed as it did--and invites readers to look again at what justice demands when the truth remains unresolved.

In one of the most extraordinary true crime stories ever published, Broken Plea questions what really happened in the house on King Road---and the results of that investigation will astound you.
