Description:EVERY DOG: WINNER OF THE 2013 SWIRL AWARD FOR "BEST ROMANTIC SUSPENSE." David Planter fights authority, and authority usually wins. Raised in a series of foster homes after his mother abandons him at the age of five, David survives nine foster homes in eleven years, an unintended and extended stay in juvenile detention, a series of dysfunctional multicultural relationships, and a tour of duty in Afghanistan, only to return to a country where he still doesn't fit in. Every Dog is a tragi-comic multicultural novel where every dog will have his day ... and sometimes, despite tragedy, love strikes twice. THE WAKING: Emmanuel "Manny" Mann is a heroin addict who is about to become a father, so he decides to clean up his act. When a junkie tells him to find the cure by jumping off the McKees Rocks Bridge in Pittsburgh, Manny embarks on a journey that takes him down the Ohio and the Mississippi to New Orleans and back. Along the way he finds out who he is. More importantly, he learns the true meaning of home. The Waking is a multicultural coming-of-age odyssey sure to echo in the reader's mind long after the last page turns. THE SAINT OF THE CITY: Gordy Metcalfe, 16, has to grow up quickly in the sleepy city of Roanoke, Virginia. Too quickly. He and his brother and two sisters have different daddies, and his mother isn't sure who any of the daddies are. Gordy sleeps on the kitchen floor, cooks, cleans, and takes care of his siblings when he'd rather be painting or fishing. With the help of his grandmother and Saint, a homeless black bluesman, Gordy thrives and survives junior high and high school despite the odds. Written with warmth and humor in 1986 by best-selling author J. J. Murray when he was 23, The Saint of the City proves that no matter how bad life gets, even a nobody from nowhere can become "the greatest man alive."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
