Paperback. Zustand: Fair. In 1994, DEA agent Michael Pevarnik opened an investigation with his informant, a Vietnamese refugee who infiltrated a string of drug-dealing auto repair shops in Worcester, Massachusetts. His yearlong case, Operation Tune-Up, went undercover with smugglers, journeying deep into a dangerous underworld of corruption, murderers, and armed robbers. He and his team chased a wily fugitive in and out of the US, and, most impactfully, exposed the biggest heroin traffickers the city had ever seen. When Worcester was given a voice as a crime victim nearly two years after the elimination of heroin in New England's second largest city-a phenomenon that reduced violent crime, stimulated business growth, increased property values, and improved the quality of life-it was the first time in US court history a community was allowed to give a victim-witness statement, declaring what they, not law enforcement, defined as a victory in the war on drugs. A Peek Under the Hood is a true crime exposé of the case that freed an entire inner-city neighborhood from the perils and decay wrought by heroin trafficking.…

In the quiet, rural town of Goshen, one family learns hiding in plain sight isn't as easy as it seems. "Eavesdropper" is the story of 14-year-old Sara, an inquisitive girl who lives with her progressive parents in a conservative New England small town, where they moved to avoid city life, polio, and surveillance. Sara faces the usual challenges of adolescence-friendships, hormones, and boys-amidst the backdrop of the isolated yet beautiful forest and the air raid drills at school.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. J.C. Myers' spirited first novel, Junkyard at No Town, captures rural Vermont's land, language, and culture in outrageous and vernacular-rich dialogue, combined with crazy and splendid plot twists and descriptions.

He buys a junkyard in the rural Vermont village of Iraton--right on the edge of No Town.Deep-rooted mysteries link incongruous neighbors and illicit livelihoods, impossible loves and unlikely devotions and violent characters -- a house burns, water mysteriously flows and disappears, and people, too, change course, ignite, vanish or die. Readers will long remember the wild, haunting comedy of Jules, Butchy Guyette, Maddy and Byron Peas, Lutheria Tupper, Copeland DeMassey and Aunt Martha, whose intertwined and braided tales reveal Junkyard at No Town's vulnerable secrets, its sins and its virtues - and our own.…

Collecting Courage: Joy, Pain, Freedom, Love - Anti-Black Racism in the Charitable Sector is a collection of stories documenting racism and survival by 15 accomplished Black fundraisers working in charities across North America.
