On their way home from a failed drug buy, Dupree Johnson and his cousin Lamont hitch a ride from a guy they know. There''s another passenger in the car, Sean Finnegan, who has to make a stop at a house in the sleepy town of Columbia. They have no idea Sean is planning a break-in. In no time, all four are in jail being questioned by Columbia Det. Jimmy Dugan. Dupree and Lamont proclaim their innocence. All they were looking for, they tell Jimmy, was “a simple ride home.” But Sean has information to trade. Much to Jimmy''s surprise, he says the person at the house, Sal Pelagrino, is a local drug dealer and runs a crew. Meanwhile, Roberto Angelini, the owner of a hot, high-fashion beauty salon in New York is gunned down in the garage of his building. When the detective in charge, Morgan Flynn, discovers Angelini has a home in Columbia he calls Jimmy and asks him to do some digging. Jimmy and Morgan worked together before and since Jimmy isn''t exactly swamped with criminal investigations – his usual day involves tracking down high school shoplifters and crime waves of stolen bicycles – he''s happy to help out. In fact Jimmy is in something a funk over the way things are going for him: not only is his work uninspiring, but Felix, his aged cat and best friend, looks like he doesn''t have long to go. The bright spots in Jimmy''s life – his girlfriend Mary and her daughter Lucy – try to bolster him up as best they can. But what about Sal Pelagrino? Who is he? And who killed Roberto Angelini? Unraveling those stories takes Jimmy and the reader on an intriguing journey.

Honor your favorite vet with this American Veterans'' Day special, now though November 15th! Ben''s War with the U. S. Marines is biographical account of the charming and humorous World War II misadventures of Pfc. Ben Green--a low-ranking but resourceful nonconformist who battled the system in order to serve his country his way and stay alive so he could return home to his family. Facing a draft notice Ben, a resourceful nonconformist and Chicago radio producer with a wife and two small children, enlisted at age 35 with the understanding that he would serve as an officer in Marine Corps intelligence. When he learned too late he was too old for the job he''d been promised, he found himself training in the infantry with angry kids half his age. Back home, his wife Alice struggled with making ends meet, managing the household, and fear of the unthinkable, as she waited in terror for word of Ben''s assignment to the next island invasion. His four-year old son, deprived of his doting dad, suffered from the trauma of separation, while his infant daughter didn''t know her father from the man on the cover of Time. Like Luther Billis in James Michener''s Tales of the South Pacific, however, Ben dealt with both the absurdity and opportunity of military life. He learned how to work the system and talked his way into an assignment where his knowledge of radio could be useful to the war effort. By default he was running the Armed Forces Radio Station on the island of Guam at the nerve center of the war, when his shining moment was heard around the world. This book is richly illustrated with Ben Green''s sketches, sent home in his letters to describe his life to his children, and family photographs. The reader will relive the travails of a typical family, separated by circumstance and distance, who, like millions of courageous military families, risked life, property and personal well-being for a greater cause. Ben''s story also bears witness to America''s Finest Hour, in Winston Churchill''s phrase, when Americans from every walk of life pulled together to defeat aggression and tyranny. In speaking for the citizen soldiers and their supporters back home, it illustrates the social history of rationing and wartime austerity, and for the first time ever, records a unique moment in broadcast history, when Ben Green, de facto station manager, and his cohorts at Armed Forces Radio Station WXLI on Guam, scooped the big news a weary world was waiting to hear.
