The Story Continues

An all new stunning book for Dusty's multitude of fans!

The Story Continues By: Xiomara Rodriguez The Story Continues is a fast-moving crime drama that delves into the dark underbelly of horse racing and the criminal element that thrives there. This case takes the crime-solving skills of twin sisters, Captain Jane Sparks of the SFPD and Special Agent Fran Morris of the FBI, to bring the perpetrators to justice.

About the Book The Story Continues places the reader into a world of ravenous mad dogs and poorly planned orbital space flights. When the demand for prosperity, immortality and well-being become intolerable, the planet strikes the North American continent, knocking the global headquarters and the National Base of Operations of the Global Criminal Capitol Network out of business. Follow along with Susan, Robert, Dave, Recoil, Stank, and Flight Planner Purguine as they attempt to restore order in the only way they can – their own. About the Author David Black Nimmo wants to give readers a book to read in a bar parking lot or at a bus stop, and as something to do other than to have to deal with your girlfriend or boyfriend’s boring life. In his opinion, there are millions and millions of people without an author, so he placed The Story Continues into production, to provide them with one. The author, who was reportedly born aboard a large ship in the Gulf of Aden on the other side of Yemen, is the son of a BIS bookkeeper and a Scottish soldier, has spent his life creating works of literary genius for regional and local fans, and has written intriguing tales of madness and severity for years.

Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King's Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert's name. There his family dwells in peace and comfort: his proud wife, Catelyn; his sons Robb, Brandon, and Rickon; his daughters Sansa and Arya; and his bastard son, Jon Snow. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse--unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season.

WINNER OF THE 1989 CHRISTOPHER AWARD • Here is a thrilling, uplifting story of true-life heroism unequaled since the publication of Anne Frank's diary—a story that the young must hear and their elders must remember. Take Alicia's hand—and follow. “This memoir is heartbreaking. I hope it will be read by Jews and non-Jews alike.”—Elie Wiesel, author of Night Her name is Alicia. She was thirteen when she began saving the lives of people she did not know—while fleeing the Nazis through war-ravaged Poland. Her family cruelly wrenched from her, Alicia rescued other Jews from the Gestapo, led them to safe hideouts, and lent them her courage and hope. Even the sight of her mother's brutal murder could not quash this remarkable child's faith in human goodness—or her determination to prevail against overwhelming odds. After the war, Alicia continued to risk her life, leading Polish Jews on an underground route to freedom in Palestine. She swore on her brother's grave that if she survived, she would speak for her silenced family. This book is the eloquent fulfillment of that oath. Praise for Alicia “Profoundly observed . . . remarkably lived . . . ferocious bravery.”—The New York Times Book Review “As exciting as it is inspirational. In fact, a good bit of Alicia: My Story reads as if it were written by one of our better writers of fiction.”—The Pittsburgh Press “A compelling voice, lucid prose . . . a luminous testimony to the heroism and humanity of one remarkable person.”—San Francisco Chronicle “Straightforward . . . energizing and inspirational.”—Newsday
