22 November 1963// 12:31 /// Dealey Plaza // Dallas, Texas//
With the presidential motorcade in his sights, he pulls the trigger and takes the shot. As chaos erupts on the street below, an almost inconspicuous assassin flees the 6th floor of the Texas School Book Depository. He doesn't know it yet, but come the next morning, he will be the most infamous man in the nation. Headlines proclaim 'JFK Slain in Dallas', but only he knows just how misleading that is. A country grieves the loss of its President, led by the stoic and graceful Jacqueline Kennedy. Yet, as her touching heartache resonates with millions of Americans, the man in the shadows isn't affected... for he is the only one who knows who that one fateful bullet was truly intended for...

"Destroy him. Get close, seduce him... and then take everything." Catherine Lee didn't come into this world looking for love. She came with a mission and a reason no one could ever guess. In her eyes: ice. On her lips: lies. In her heart? Only revenge. Harry Bailey - a ruthless gangster who thinks he's seen it all, but the real danger isn't the bullets flying around him - it's the woman he just let into his world. And into his bed. This story is raw, full of lies, violence, lust, and blood. Every character hides something. Every scene leaves a scar. And the biggest shock? Wait for the very last page. .................................................................................. - How many of them are there? - I said quietly, walking forward. - Like? - he looked at me strangely. - Bodies - I whispered. - Oh - he threw away the cigarette and stamped it out - 18. I blinked quickly in shock and swallowed hard. I felt as if there was a lump in my throat. - There are 18 roses in your bouquet. We will pay tribute to the deceased by throwing one rose on their body. I nodded in understanding, looking at the tips of my shoes. There was silence around us and a light wind. It was the first time I witnessed something like that and I didn't know how I should behave or feel. ..................................................................................

A Moment's Notice
New Orleans was alive, so was Malcolm, they were there to be loved, and he loved them all. So did William, that was something Malcolm was unaware of. He knew his Grandad was the One-Night-killer, but he never knew what role his Dad, William played on the twisted playground. Detective Thomas Sadler was undercover, he worked as a detective, but he was a seasoned military man, so was his Senior Analyst. Johnny de Marco. They were the Watchdogs, the men sent out so clean up every mess, and to put an end to any tyrant. Thomas tried, he did it all by the book, but he couldn't find the evidence he needed to put Malcolm Jnr away. Bodies were piling up, each found in a Motel, each with their eyes open, and each with something missing from their person. Malcolm believed in true love, and as long as the clock was ticking, he knew they would wait for him, where that special place was, was a mystery to him. But as long as their hearts beat, and they told him they loved him, he kept them 'alive' in the various watches he made in Timeless Antiquities. A business passed down from Malcolm Snr to his son William and in turn to his son Malcolm. When Malcolm moved into the Kirby-house, things changed, ghosts and death seemed to follow him like a bad cold, it was all over the place. The Watchdogs had a hand in the demise of Malcolm, it was all swept under the rug, by Captain Gabrielle Belmonte, Johnny's estranged wife, acting Captain, and a Watchdog. Love is blind, not quite as blind as Johnny was to the truth, to the lies, and to the fact that Gabrielle, had a hand in everything that went wrong in his life, and she was the ultimate puppeteer. Malcolm and William danced to her tune. This book is published with the express permission from the author, Nikki PaivaComplete
