Blue
Barry Ferguson is Scotland's most gifted soccer player, the heartbeat of Rangers, and the captain of his country. Now, a star who is notoriously protective of his privacy opens his heart and delivers a no-holds-barred account of his controversial career. Featuring Ferguson's take on all aspects of his eventful journey so far, this title includes details on the firing of Lorenzo Amoruso as the Rangers manager and Ferguson's appointment at the age of only 22; the horrifying night of violence when he was bottled in the face after being sent off in a 6-2 Old Firm defeat; his venture into the Premiership after signing for Blackburn Rovers in 2003; the despair and agony of the broken kneecap he feared had ended his career; and the eventual elation he felt on his return to his boyhood heroes. Ferguson also reveals the details of his secret wedding to Margaret, his Catholic bride, and his pride when his career was recognized by the Queen.
The Snow Killings
Over 13 months in 1976-1977, four children were abducted in the Detroit suburbs, each of them held for days before their still-warm bodies were dumped in the snow near public roadsides. The Oakland County Child Murders spawned panic across southeast Michigan, triggering the most extensive manhunt in U.S. history. Yet after less than two years, the task force created to find the killer was shut down without naming a suspect. The case "went cold" for more than 30 years, until a chance discovery by one victim's family pointed to the son of a wealthy General Motors executive: Christopher Brian Busch, a convicted pedophile, was freed weeks before the fourth child disappeared. Veteran Detroit News reporter Marney Rich Keenan takes the reader inside the investigation of the still-unsolved murders--seen through the eyes of the lead detective in the case and the family who cracked it open--revealing evidence of a decades-long coverup of malfeasance and obstruction that denied justice for the victims.
