They All Love Jack
For over a hundred years, the mystery of Jack the Ripper has been a source of unparalleled fascination and horror, spawning an army of obsessive theorists and endless volumes purporting to finally reveal the identity of the brutal murderer who terrorized Victorian England. But what if there was never really any mystery at all? What if the Ripper was always hiding in plain sight, deliberately leaving a trail of clues to his identity for anyone who cared to look, while cynically mocking those who were supposedly attempting to bring him to justice?

Michael Deal
Michael Deal is a novel about one man's struggle to find his place in the human community. The structure of the book reflects its theme. Every action sequence, every series of events, every chapter, as well as the entire book as an organic whole, exhibits the identical structure as its protagonist attempts to "fit in," is frustrated and fails, and reacts in one of two ways, withdrawal or attack, until at the very end of the novel he finds his own way of coming to terms with the issue. This blending of structure and theme is masterfully accomplished in the Africa sequence, which constitutes most of chapter two, the longest of the novel's three chapters. The theme of finding one's place may not be unique; but Vivelo's voice, as well as his manner of presenting this perennial concern, is decidedly different from that of any other novelist.

Making Jack Falcone
At 6'4" and 375 pounds, Jack Garcia looked the part of a mobster, and he played his part so perfectly that his Mafia bosses never suspected he was an undercover agent for the FBI. 'Big Jack Falcone', as he was known inside La Cosa Nostra, learned all the inside dirt about the Gambino organized crime syndicate and its illegal activities - from extortion and loan-sharking to assault and murder. The result was a string of busts and a quarter of a million dollar contract put out on his life. A fascinating inside look at the struggle between law enforcement and organized crime, MAKING JACK FALCONE sheds new light on two organizational cultures that continue to exert an unparalled grip on our imagination.
