TAKING THE LAW INTO HIS HANDS AFTER HIS EX-WIFE IS MURDERED ISN'T ENOUGH...EQUALING THE SCORE ISLuke Beckett is anything but your average Hollywood vice squad detective. A cop who refuses to play the game, he is like some Avenging Angel always quick to judge, and to punish with his rock-hard fists those who don't see his way. Forced to resign after a prostitute bust goes awry, he accepts a police lieutenant position in that God-forsaken place, Palm Springs, where there is hardly enough action to keep his blood circulating. That all changes when his ex-wife Marcia, since re-married to an aging American tycoon and one of Palm Springs' wealthiest, most influential residents, is found murdered at a swank party under suspicious circumstances with hardly a clue. Assigned to investigate her murder, this short-tempered, superbly trained former big city cop finds more than he expects-a secret romance with a lesbian lover and possible mob connections to her untimely death and assassination attempt on his own life-in this engaging, thought-provoking original hard-boiled mystery from the author of the critically-acclaimed novel, Scared to Death.
June 30, 1944, fifty members of the United States 460th Bomb Group came under heavy attack on their mission to destroy German oil refineries in Silesia, Hungary, when German twin-engine Me-410 fighters blasted seven B-24s out of the sky. Seventeen airmen were killed, twenty-four captured, many of them badly burned, wounded or beaten to death by Hungarian peasants after parachuting to the ground. One survivor, T/Sgt. John L. Lenburg, was among those taken prisoner (his German code name: "Kriegsgefangenen #6410") with the crew of the B-24, "Miss Fortune," never knowing if he would see his homeland again. WALK TO FREEDOM: Kriegsgefangenen #6410 - Prisoner of War recounts Lenburg's remarkable journey--his experiences and harrowing missions in the Army Air Force during World War II, his tortuous 327 days of captivity in a Nazi concentration camp, including the inhumane treatment and horrific conditions, mental and physical abuse, and starvation and doubts, and his long walk to freedom in this revised, expanded, and copiously illustrated biography.
