Als een homoseksueel stel op brute wijze wordt vermoord gaan de vaders samen op onderzoek naar de daders.

Een meeslepende, operatische verhaal over een man die door armoede, ras en zijn vroegere criminele leven tot het uiterste wordt gedreven. Beauregard “Bug” Montage is een eerlijke monteur, een liefdevolle echtgenoot en een hardwerkende vader. Hij weet dat er geen toekomst is in de man die hij ooit was, bekend als de beste chauffeur aan de oostkust. Hij dacht dat hij dat leven achter zich had gelaten, maar wanneer zijn zorgvuldig opgebouwde nieuwe leven begint te wankelen, wordt hij onvermijdelijk teruggetrokken in een wereld van bloed en kogels. Wanneer een gladde voormalige collega hem benadert met een onmisbare overval op een juwelierszaak, voelt Bug geen andere keuze dan weer achter het stuur te kruipen. Bug is op zijn best waar de geur van benzine zich vermengt met de geur van angst. Achtervolgd door de geest van wie hij ooit was en de vader die verdween toen hij hem het meest nodig had, moet Bug een manier vinden om deze asfaltwoestenij te navigeren... of sterven in de poging.

When two friends invite Little Bill to a picnic and a ball game on the same day, he must decide how to deal with the situation.

Essentially, this is the best of the best of 50 years of Peanuts, the comic strip by the late Charles Schulz featuring Charlie Brown, Lucy, Linus, Snoopy, and the rest of the beguiling little gang. Peanuts debuted in 1950 and became a global phenomenon, with book collections selling more than 300 million copies in 26 languages and television specials rerun year after year. To create this all-new Peanuts Guide to Life, we've combed through decades of comic strips to find those single panels which contain such pithy observations as “Babysitters are like used cars. You never know what you're going to get,” and bits of wisdom like “Never lick ice cream off a hot sidewalk.” Each droll, stand-alone “speech bubble” or punchline appears with cartoon art. The panels are organized into short chapters, such as “Love” and “Life's Little Quirks.” For the millions of faithful Peanuts fans, this is a collection of “greatest hits” to cherish and enjoy again and again.

The legendary Bill Cosby, America’s most well-known comic, wants food lovers and over indulgers everywhere to know that they are not alone. Yes, just like the rest of us -- he is frightened -- especially if we've paid any attention lately to the front-page headlines and daily reports on the nightly news: Cholesterol Kills!" Cookies Clog Arteries!" Meatball Sandwiches Cause God Knows What" Repent and Exercise -- or Else!" In this original collection of humorous musings and digressions about our obsessions, the incomparable Doctor of Comedy is right on target as he reflects back on his own sixty-five years of dining at the banquet of life -- from the hoagies to the stogies to every death-defying delicacy in between. Who better than the man who made an international hero out of a boy named Fat Albert, to aim his great wit, wisdom, and observational talent at our national obsession with food and our never-ending quest for a healthy lifestyle. Bill Cosby is stepping up to the plate -- literally -- in this hilarious new book about his own lifelong cravings and snack attacks ... as well as his hopes that one day, sooner rather than later, pizza will be found to be a cure for heart disease and high cholesterol.

Just as a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down, so a spoonful of humor helps the wisdom go down. In Congratulations! Now What America's funnyman Bill Cosby gently ribs college graduates about their time spent--or lost--in the hallowed halls of the university and postulates what four years of higher education have suited them for: "[If no job offer] ever turns up with a four-day week, a three-hour lunch, and a holiday for Count Basie's birthday, you still might be able to make a few dollars on Jeopardy." But he also assures graduates that their studies were not in vain and bestows advice to job seekers. Those who acquired several piercings while in school are cautioned to make sure the studs and hoops are shined before going to an interview. Those who are buffing their first professional r+sum+ are advised to strike a tone somewhere between "lyrical lying and fanciful fraud." Cosby, whose successful career as a humorist has always turned on his affection for kids, is a regular speaker at college commencements--in the chapter "As I Look Out at Your Foggy Faces," he says it's a hobby of his--and this 130-page book collects bons mots and sage advice from speeches given because he has "a feeling for anesthesiology."Graduates--and their now-broke parents--will find a reason to smile on every page. --Brenda Pittsley
