Dead Line [electronic resource] : by Cameron, Marc.aut; CloudLibrary;
Deputy U.S. Marshal Arliss Cutter and his partner brave the unforgiving, brutal Alaskan wilderness of snow and ice to save a government witness from cold-blooded assassins . . . In the White Mountain Wilderness of Interior Alaska, twenty-four-year-old protected witness Sam Lujan is lonely for his old life. So much so, the young Apache not only breaks the cardinal rule of the Witness Protection Program—by revealing his whereabouts to his mother, he invites her to join him to see the Northern Lights. It’s her lifelong dream. No worries. It’ll be safe. When Deputy U.S. Marshals Arliss Cutter and Lola Teariki discover Sam has gone missing, they’re asked to make a quick trip into the remote wild to make sure the witness is indeed protected. But there’s no such thing as a quick trip. Not when they’re plunging headlong into the frozen unknown at fifty-eight degrees below zero. And not when they aren’t the only ones searching. Valeria Kot, the vengeful daughter of the criminal Sam testified against, has been waiting and watching for years for just the opportunity to strike back. She’s found it—and has dispatched a sadistic hit squad to make sure Sam pays in the most savage way possible. Once Arliss and Lola reach the trailhead it doesn’t take long for them to realize they’re dealing with more than a witness who’s broken protocol. Tracks in the snow and tell-tale signs signal an armed team—one that’s already a step ahead of them. For Arliss and Lola, and a desperate mother and son on the run, the death-defying, frigid temperatures are the least of their worries.General adult.

Green crime : inside the minds of the people destroying the planet, and how to stop them. by Shaw, Julia.;
"A popular BBC presenter and podcaster looks at six world-changing environmental crimes and takes readers inside the minds of the people responsible. Our planet is a crime scene. People are murdered, ecosystems are destroyed, and corruption is rampant. In Green Crime, criminal psychologist Dr. Julia Shaw takes us inside six world-changing environmental crimes and reveals how the perpetrators think, why their crimes are so deadly, and how we can stop them from damaging our planet and our future. Julia Shaw attempts to make sense of some of the worst environmental crimes of our recent past by considering them through the lens of criminal psychology: these are not just natural disasters or random acts of destruction, these are illegal acts which follow familiar criminal behavior patterns. With that understanding, we are able to make sense of these ecocides and strategize ways to prevent them. As a criminal psychologist, Dr. Shaw explores "six pillars" of criminal behavior, which can be applied in the case studies presented. These are: Ease, Impunity, Greed, Rationalization, Conformity, and Desperation. Using these pillars as guidelines, along with in-depth research and interviews with involved parties, Dr. Shaw takes us through six recent examples of large-scale environmental destruction caused by human criminal behavior. Part history book, part true crime thriller, her writing weaves in the complex backgrounds and criminal choices that make conditions ripe for these kinds of crimes to occur, in an attempt to understand what we can do to prevent them in the future. Crimes covered are: "Dieselgate," the Volkswagen emissions scandal; the murder of Brazilian rainforest activists Zé Cláudio Ribeiro da Silva and his wife, Maria; illegal poaching for ivory by the Shuidong Syndicate; the world's longest ship chase, tracking down illegal fishing ship Thunder; Operation Vala Umgodi ('Close the Hole') fighting illegal mining in South Africa; the Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion and spill in the Gulf of Mexico "--Library Bound Incorporated

Saint of the Narrows Street [electronic resource] : by Boyle, William.aut; cloudLibrary;
As an Italian American family's decades-old secret begins to unravel, they will have to bear the consequences—and face each other—in this thrilling south Brooklyn-set tragic opera of the highest caliber from crime fiction luminary William Boyle. William Boyle is the master of Brooklyn-set crime fiction and Saint of the Narrows Street is his magnum opus. For fans of The Sopranos, Jonathan Lethem, and Dennis Lehane. Gravesend, Brooklyn, 1986: Risa Franzone lives in a ground-floor apartment on Saint of the Narrows Street with her bad-seed husband, Saverio, and their eight-month-old baby, Fabrizio. On the night Risa’s younger sister, Giulia, moves in to recover from a bad breakup, a fateful accident occurs: Risa, boiled over with anger and fear, strikes a drunk, erratic Sav with a cast-iron pan, killing him on the spot. The sisters are left with a choice: notify the authorities and make a case for self-defense, or bury the man’s body and go on with their lives as best they can. In a moment of panic, in the late hours of the night, they call upon Sav’s childhood friend—the sweet, loyal Christopher “Chooch” Gardini—to help them, hoping they can trust him to carry a secret like this. Over the vast expanse of the next eighteen years, life goes on in the working-class Italian neighborhood of Gravesend as Risa, Giulia, Chooch, and eventually Fabrizio grapple with what happened that night. A standout work of character-driven crime fiction from a celebrated author of the form, Saint of the Narrows Street is a searing and richly drawn novel about the choices we make and how they shape our lives.
