One Insider's Impossible Battle Against Big Pharma Corruption

False Claims

Gordon "Woody" Mower made worldwide news for his foiled attempt to escape a maximum-security prison in a getaway coffin. Now, behind the headlines is a story the notorious prisoner tells only to author Susan Ashline. Ungrateful Bastard unravels the making of a killer and escape artist, from a troubled upbringing on a rural farm to a descent into crime, fueled by abuse, addiction, and a thirst for vengeance. A haunting examination of the criminal mind, read some of the killer's tale through his own chilling words. The murderer first rose to infamy in 1996 when, at eighteen years old, he shot his parents dead, forever silencing his mother's moniker for him: "Ungrateful bastard." Mower fled, leading authorities on an international manhunt. When the fugitive was featured on the TV show America's Most Wanted, a tip led to his capture. The judge spared the teenager the death penalty, sending him to prison for life. The killer's relentless pursuit of freedom culminated in a daring scheme to escape prison buried alive under sawdust. A gripping account, Ungrateful Bastard reveals the tragic events that shaped a killer's dark psyche, and the prison climate that allowed him to practice an escape repeatedly, without prison guards ever catching on. Ungrateful Bastard blows the roof off of the Mower case from the cradle to the (escape) coffin.

Female Killers in Early Modern Britain

Thou Savage Woman

A Mafia insider and authentic Hollywood tough guy reveals the explosive secrets he’s learned (and kept) for decades in this shocking tell all that unveils the hidden worlds of film and organized crime—from who shot JFK and murdered Jimmy Hoffa to the truth about Marilyn Monroe’s death. Foreword by Steve Schirripa, star of The Sopranos, Blue Bloods, and Under the Boardwalk The Kennedys, Marilyn, the Vatican, Vegas, The Godfather, the Mob, and more . . . During a cursed childhood in a Manhattan neighborhood teeming with Italian immigrants, Gianni Russo fended for himself at an early age. It was a quality that didn’t go unnoticed by Frank Costello—father figure, mentor, and legendary crime boss. Thanks to Costello, Gianni was only twelve when his luck would change for a lifetime. All of it charmed—and thrilling. With it came Hollywood glamor, Vegas risk-takers, political conspiracies, sex, murder, shadow governments, and secrets. The stories Gianni Russo could tell . . . Now he does in this bombshell confessional. This is the inside account of the Sicilian Mafia, Cosa Nostra, what really transpired in those Mulberry Street clubs, and who whacked whom—including how mobster Tony Spilotro and his brother really died, finally revealed for the first time. This is Gianni, buddy of Frank Sinatra, and intimately more with Marilyn Monroe. What’s the cover-up behind her death, JFK’s, and Jimmy Hoffa’s? It’s all here. So is the clandestine role of the pope as the sacred boss of bosses, the glory days and downfall of Las Vegas, and the colorful behind-the-scenes tales of Gianni’s role in the greatest movie ever made, The Godfather. The go-getter Frank Costello once called the “Kid” shares his shocking, exhilarating, sometimes violent, and always riveting life with the dealmakers of Hollywood and the Mob. Gianni Russo lives to tell, and spills it all.

The Graphic Stories

MrBallen Presents: Where Nightmares Live

An illuminating account of the most storied friendship of the American West: the bond between Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday In 1878, Wyatt Earp, town marshall of Dodge City, was attempting to arrest some drunken, armed men who’d cornered him in a saloon. John Henry “Doc” Holliday, who'd been gambling nearby, stepped in with a revolver and quieted the drunks, allowing Earp to make his arrests. This was the start to the most legendary friendship and partnership of the American West. Through action-packed adventures, Gardner shows us how, over the years, Holliday became like a brother to Wyatt, riding from town to town, throughout the west. This thrilling narrative builds up to the moment when they'd hunt down the very men who murdered Wyatt's brother, Morgan, a legendary search that enthusiasts of the Wild West are eager to learn more about.&nbsp; Gardner shows that there is far more to unearth about this famous friendship. Researched through firsthand observations at historic sites and countless contemporary letters and newspaper reports, this&nbsp;is the definitive book on Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and their fascinating bond.
