Book Description
A priest and his housekeeper abandon a baby girl on the doorstep of a house near the Black Church in Dublin's north inner city in February 1923. Three local women notice the couple's suspicious behaviour and apprehend them. The two are handed over to the police, charged and sent for trial. A month later, a young doctor is shot dead on the streets of Mohill, Co. Leitrim. The two incidents are connected, but how? In the days following the shooting of Dr Paddy Muldoon, the name of a local priest was linked to the killing and rumours abounded of a connection to the events in Dublin a month earlier and also that an IRA gang had been recruited to carry out the murder. However, despite an investigation at the time, the murder remained unsolved for almost 100 years. Now, newly discovered archive material from a range of sources, including the Muldoon family, has made it possible to piece together the circumstances surrounding the doctor's death, and reveals how far senior figures in the Church, State and IRA were willing to go to cover up a scandal.

Book Description
Why would world-renowned cardiologist Dr. Joe Dugan name his ex-wife, Marcy Simpson, and not his current wife the beneficiary of his $4 million life insurance policy? Was it an oversight? Surely it couldn't have been intentional . . . could it? After all, the good doctor divorced Marcy over 16 years earlier! Kate Muldoon, who the media has dubbed the "Defense Counsel to the Stars," must answer this question when Marcy, an old friend, solicits Kate's help in battling Dugan's well-heeled widow who has decided the insurance settlement should be hers. Kate's task becomes even more difficult when the police begin investigating Dr. Dugan's death as a murder, and suspicion, naturally, falls on Marcy, who stands to gain millions from his death. Kate's plate is, once again, overflowing with work, and, just to complicate matters further, she makes a decision that throws her personal life into total confusion. As she endeavors to keep her busy legal practice on the rails, sort out her personal dilemmas, and quietly do battle with her male chauvinist partners, Kate manages to find time to train for a half marathon and hang out with her always-interesting "homegirls."

Book Description
This the only authorized biography of New Zealand's prime minister, Robert Muldoon—one of the dominant political figures of the last half-century in that country. Based on many hours of conversation with Muldoon himself as well as colleagues, friends, and family, and wide access to the prime minister's official and private papers and diaries, this book has been awarded the Ian Wards Prize for published historical writing. Muldoon is shown as a champion of the ordinary people whose vision over time became anachronistic and inflexible. The book is also a fascinating picture of New Zealand's changing political landscape from the 1940s to the 1980s.

Book Description
Stagecoach guard Red Ryan has managed to survive every dirty, danger-filled trail in Texas. But this time, the journey is hell on four wheels. And the next stop could be his last... BIG TROUBLE IN A SMALL TOWN It starts with an unusual request: "On this trip there will be no cussing, no drinking, no gambling, and no loose women." No problem. Or so Red Ryan thinks-until he meets the passengers. They include four holy and silent monks, one beautiful lady tutor, and a drunken, washed-up gunfighter. Even worse, they're crossing the wild Texas hill country where bloodthirsty Apaches are on the loose and a mad-dog killer is on the prowl. But that can't compare to what's waiting for them at Fredericksburg. In this quiet little town, every man, woman, and monk will reveal their true colors. Green for greed. Yellow for cowardice. Black for pure unadulterated evil. Which leaves Red-gunning for his life... Live Free. Read Hard.
