The lady makes her mark / by Craig, Susanna,author.;
"Known only as "Miss C." Constantia Cooper creates satirical cartoons for Mrs. Goode's. But her anonymity hides a more shocking secret -- one that requires she remain elusive. When a scandal at the magazine threatens to expose her, Constantia packs up and flees. But in her haste, she is struck by a carriage and suffers a blow to the head. Fortunately, she's rescued by a gentleman. Unfortunately, he is all too familiar. Feigning amnesia seems Constantia's best strategy ... Alistair Haythorne, Earl of Ryland, would never turn away a lady in distress -- even if he's often the target of said lady's biting satire. In fact, while "Miss C." recuperates, he will have her teach his sisters to draw. Perhaps it will inspire a more flattering portrait of him ... But secrets make interesting bedfellows and as Constantia and Alistair grow closer, their opinions of one another change -- drastically. With love in the air, two things stand between them: Alistair's need to marry an heiress to keep his family's estate intact ... and a series of threats that endanger Constantia's life. Can what keeps them apart ultimately bring them together?"--

Cruz / by Ferraro, Nicolás,1986-author.; Craig-Kuhn, Mallory N.,translator.; translation of:Ferraro, Nicolás,1986-Cruz.English.;
"Tomas Cruz swore he would never be like his father, an abusive cocaine junky whose gangland exploits are notorious throughout the underbelly of northern Argentina. When Samuel Cruz is sentenced to thirteen years in prison, he leaves a laundry list of unfinished cartel business. Seba, Tomas's revered older brother, has no choice but to abandon his straight life and take over his father's underworld debt. But Tomas has been able to stay out of the criminal life completely-until now. Now, just in time for the holidays, Seba has been arrested, and the ruthless cartel boss is holding his wife and daughter as collateral. Tomas is forced to choose between protecting his family and his soul as he assumes the to-do list where Seba left off, plunging into the shocking depravity of the cartel to track a drug deal gone wrong. On a bloody quest for underworld justice that will take him from a nightmarish bar staffed by teenage sex slaves to the murky depths of the Parana River, Tomas discovers himself capable of violence he never thought possible. He must ask himself if he really is his father's son ... and he may not like the answer. This Christmas-set thriller, written in evocative, almost dreamlike prose, is as much about gory shoot-outs as it is about escaping a toxic family to find self-fulfillment and freedom. Argentinian noir wunderkind Nicolás Ferraro's first novel to be translated into English, Cruz was a finalist for the prestigious Dashiell Hammett Award for Best Crime Novel"--

Flawless [sound recording] / by Graham, Heather,author.; Maarleveld, Saskia,narrator.;
Read by Saskia Maarleveld.It's a pub in lower Manhattan, run by the Finnegan family for generations and now owned by Kieran and her three brothers. Kieran Finnegan, who still works there whenever she can, has become a criminal psychologist. Meanwhile, New York's Diamond District has been hit by a rash of thefts. No one's been killed, until now. FBI agent Craig Frasier is brought in to investigate; he and Kieran meet at a jewelry store in the middle of a heist. She's there to 'unsteal' a flawless stone taken by her light-fingered youngest brother as an act of vengeance. He's there to stop the gang. Thrown together by circumstance, drawn together by attraction, Kieran and Craig both end up working on the case. Unfortunately, there's more and more evidence that, somehow, the pub is involved. Because everyone goes to Finnegan's.

36 Seconds. by Albaba, Tarek,film director.; Minhaj, Hasan,actor.; Video Project (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Hasan MinhajOriginally produced by Video Project in 2023.On February 10, 2015, UNC students Deah Barakat, his wife Yusor Mohammad Abu-Salha, and her sister Razan Mohammad Abu-Salha were eating dinner in their home in Chapel Hill, North Carolina when they were killed by their neighbor Craig Hicks in 36 seconds. Before their families can grieve, they are forced to become activists to set the record straight — that these killings were a hate crime.36 SECONDS: PORTRAIT OF A HATE CRIME charts the families' agonizing overnight pivot from trauma to advocacy as they struggle to prevent their loved ones' deaths from being dismissed as the result of a random parking dispute as Hicks originally claimed, and local law enforcement and national media quickly parroted. They courageously speak the truth about the hate crime that destroyed their lives, the overtly insidious ways racism plays out in our society, and about the need to reform a hate crime system that is broken.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Lucky loser : how Donald Trump squandered his father's fortune and created the illusion of success / by Buettner, Russ,author.; Craig, Susanne,author.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 457-500) and index."Soon after announcing his first campaign for the US presidency, Donald J. Trump [said] ... that life 'has not been easy for me. It has not been easy for me.' Building on a narrative he had been telling for decades, he spun a hardscrabble fable of how he parlayed a small loan from his father into a multi-billion-dollar business and real estate empire. This feat, he argued, made him singularly qualified to lead the country. Except: None of it was true. Born to a rich father who made him the beneficiary of his own highly lucrative investments, Trump received the equivalent of more than $500 million today via means that required no business expertise whatsoever. Drawing on over twenty years' worth of Trump's confidential tax information -- including the tax returns he tried to conceal -- alongside business records and interviews with Trump insiders, New York Times investigative reporters Russ Buettner and Susanne Craig track Trump's financial rise and fall, and rise and fall again. For decades, he squanders his fortunes on money-losing businesses, only to be saved yet again by financial serendipity. He tacks his name above the door of every building, while taking out huge loans he'll never repay. He obsesses over appearances, while ignoring threats to the bottom line and mounting costly lawsuits against city officials. He tarnishes the value of his name by allowing anyone with a big enough check to use it, and cheats the television producer who not only rescues him from bankruptcy but casts him as a business savant -- the public image that will carry him to the White House"--
