1970 pack pulls 19 Jan 2022 4:24 AM (3 years ago)

In the dim ancient past, corner stores would give you a nickel for recycled drink bottles, so you could get your wagon, prowl the ditches, and end up with maybe a whole dollar for half a day's work. The tough choice was then whether to buy a drink with actual drink in it and a candy bar or two, a pack or two of cards, a comic book, or usually a little of all of the above.

I still have some cards pulled out of those packs. Much loved and survived many travels and shoe boxes and even a house fire.

This is one of the Holy Trinity of basketball cards. Glad to have one.

“One of the most thrilling writers working today. Miss him at your own peril.” – Blake Crouch, The Wayward Pines Trilogy 

"Always surprises and always entertains." - Jonathan Maberry, Patient Zero

As the mutant Zapheads form a social order and shape a new world in the wake of catastrophic solar storms, the few remaining humans band together in a struggle for survival.

And the Zapheads have a special role for her that could save the human race at the cost of her own identity. 

Torn between two possible futures, will Rachel sacrifice herself to prevent the extinction of her kind? 

Momenti dark: ultima collezione di thriller, 0,99 Kindle Italia 23 Jan 2015 7:34 AM (10 years ago)

"Nobody electrifies as Nicholson. None. "- JA Konrath, Mr. K 

A bestseller (Top 30) Kindle US! 
Twins compete for control of the family empire, built on cruelty, deception and dark secrets - and among them there is a woman, while another waits in the shadows, that one of them falls. 

Disintegration 

When a mysterious fire destroyed the house and killed his daughter, Jacob Wells is dragged down into a spiral that brings him closer to the past who believed dead and buried. 

His twin brother Joshua is back in town to settle old scores and claim its share of the inheritance Wells. Jacob's wife, Renee, is struggling with their guilt, because the couple had already lost a little girl. 

Jacob and Joshua back to the old, twisted roles that were adopted when they were living with parents cruel and demanding, and meanwhile unleashed a war based on pride, greed and passion. They share the poisonous love of a woman who would be pleased to ruin them both: Carlita, a Mexican provocative and manipulative whose family of laborers had helped build the fortune of Wells. 

Jacob would love to figure out who is to blame. But identities are confused, because Joshua and Jacob share much more than blood. 

And the games of their childhood have become deadly serious.
