Second Chance
Upon retiring from the New York City Transit Police Department after 22 years, I was given a second chance to start over, in a new police department and to be able to continue doing what I loved, being a police officer. What I didn't know at the time, the town of Palm Beach P.D. wasn't all that I thought it would be instead, the department revolved on favoritism; and if you questioned their decisions, they retaliated against you. This was obvious from the time I took my first promotion test for the rank of sergeant. I was passed over for the next three promotions, even though I was higher up on the list. They employed the” Peter Principle”, promote the man to his next level of incompeten...

Manhunt in Palm Beach
Manhunt for the most elusive burglar to prowl the Town of Palm Beach. He evaded law enforcement officers on a nightly basis. It was though he was, “The Invisible Man.” After committing some sixty {60} burglaries, he was finally apprehended. The story and investigation involved the Palm Beach Police Detectives, the F.B.I., and last but not least a patrol officer by the name of Joe Hawk who had a major role in the apprehension and identification of the elusive burglar. This was a two-prong investigation, one by the detectives, and the F.B.I., and the other by the Burglary Strike Force. In the end it all came together to apprehend a man that stole over twenty-five {25} million dollars in jewelry. The investigation led the detectives and the F.B.I. through six counties, and four states seizing jewelry and arresting fences along the way.
A Common Thread
At one time, they were a professional, tough, and efficient team-elite covert troopers who accomplished those assignments no one else would dirty their hands with-or would even admit to having any knowledge of. Even though they're retired now, they still have each other's back, especially when one of their own faces trouble. Father Joe O'Reilly, the team's self-appointed chaplain, would give his life in a New York minute to help someone in need. That has placed him in a situation that may cost him his life. He is assigned to a small cluster of islands in the Caribbean Sea called the Isles of Eden and directed to help the islanders any way he can. But Dr. Enrico Hamadryad has other plans. He is the leader of the Gifted, a criminal cult located on the Isles of Eden that rejects all laws and faith and makes their own. Its goal is world domination. What's more, the natives have fallen under Hamadryad's evil spell, and O'Reilly is kidnapped. His former teammates, led by John Hawk, must find a way to rescue O'Reilly before he is killed, and they aim to put an end to Hamadryad and his evil cult along the way.
Trying to Catch the Wind
When author Josef N. Ferri met a senior honors student from South Park High School named Marilyn, he felt an immediate spark. He drew her into conversation, and the two instantly became involved in something beyond teenage small talk. He reconnected with her a bit later, just as the second half of the 1960s began to unfold. From the night of their innocent and romantic first date, their journey was filled with wonder and amazement. But almost immediately, they were faced with huge obstacles, as on that same night they almost died in an accident involving a drunken driver. Ultimately, confusion and misunder-standing separated them forever, but by then theyd lived their most cherished dream. Amid the turbulence and sociopolitical upheaval of the 1960s and the painful chaos of their individual troubled home lives, they found an extraordinary sanctuary in their deep love, and it was a love that was more than love. Somehow, it still survives in Trying to Catch the Wind.

Hass auf Joe Hawk: Pete Hackett Western Edition 141
Für Glenn Anderson öffneten sich die Zuchthaustore. Fünf Jahre hatte er hinter den hohen Mauern verbracht. Nun war er krank. Er war nur noch ein Schatten seiner selbst. Die Schwindsucht hatte ihn ausgezehrt. Er war vom Tod gezeichnet. Seine Söhne erwarteten ihn. Sie hatten ein Pferd für ihn mitgebracht. Im Scabbard steckte eine Winchester, am Sattelhorn hing ein Patronengurt mit einem schweren 45er Coltrevolver im Holster. Zwei Freunde waren mit seinen Söhnen geritten. James Harney und Matt Rankin. Ihnen standen Verkommenheit und Niedertracht in die stoppelbärtigen Gesichter geschrieben. Sie grinsten. Glenn Anderson nickte seinen Söhnen und deren Freunden zu. »Es ist schön, euch nach fünf langen Jahren zu sehen.« Er sprach es und spürte den Hass, der ihn innerlich zerfraß. Tödlicher Hass, der keine Zugeständnisse und kein Erbarmen kennen sollte; Hass auf den U.S. Marshal Joe Hawk.

Ein Strick für Joe Hawk: Pete Hackett Western Edition 144
Der peitschende Knall eines Schusses trieb über den Hügel. Eine zweite Detonation verschmolz mit dem verklingenden Knall. Dann kehrte Ruhe ein. Joe Hawk war seinem Pferd abrupt in die Zügel gefallen. Das Tier stand. Joe lauschte angespannt. Es blieb still. Der U.S. Marshal zog das Pferd um die rechte Hand, lenkte es nach Westen und trieb es den Hügel hinauf. Er hatte Einblick in eine weitläufige Senke. Vom Scheitelpunkt der Anhöhe aus sah er am Rand der Ebene ein graues Pferd stehen. Ein Mann lag daneben am Boden. Und aus einer Hügellücke im Norden trabten zwei Reiter. Sie hielten die Gewehre in den Fäusten. Im Schritt näherten sie sich der reglosen Gestalt bei dem grauen Pferd... Joe Hawk kam von Perryton herunter. Er war auf dem Weg nach Amarillo, wo er als U.S. Marshal für das 'District Court for the Northern District of Texas' ritt.
