Huntress Book Reviews Product Description Schofield, Frederick From the Author There are no enigmas for those who know the answers. Enjoy the zippy main story. Lock n load with strong characters and charge into an inferno. Afterward or perhaps during, but only for those who yearn and absolutely for no one else, savor lite history behind two uniquely parallel lives that also touch these pages. Why not? Fiction is often the best place to discover secrets buried with hallowed dead and displaced despots. My father and uncle grew up in Philadelphias East Falls virtually next door to Grace Kelly. Firsthand, they saw the tomboy evolve into a star, the starlet transform into Her Highness. They and their childhood pals remained close to the Kelly clan even after the murders touching these pages.

No defendant, regardless how odious, is denied our systems protective armor. If the unrighteous can be deprived, so can any woman or man. Of course, defending bad people is tons easier to swallow when theyre wellheeled. I dont speak for Ray, only from common experience. The heavy conscience of many a defender, whos championed an abhorrent cause, has been lightened by spending a handsome fee. Initially, this run to hell kicked up too much dust from all the dirt. Wise editors murdered an early rendition by yelping: The story isnt nicheable. Is it historic drama, a thriller or something else? Hack away Graces childhood. Cut how the starlet came to wear a crown. Slice out the parallel tale of an impoverished Panamanian boy called Pineapple Face who rose to enslave his nation and rule a billiondollar drug empire with CIA assistance. Amputate! The horse faces were right of course. Few markets peddle an omnibus. So, the main story raises pulses and whe
