Superior Beef
One stormy night, a Superior Beef delivery truck crashes, killing the driver. When troopers arrive, they find a big surprise. Not only is the driver dead, but there are three other dead bodies in the rear of the truck, wrapped in plastic. Soon, it comes to light that two of the dead men in the back of the truck were on duty police detectives, and so begins the public outcry for justice. This gruesome story remains on the front page of the newspapers for weeks, and all police investigations to find the killers are stalled because of a lack of evidence. Desperate, the mayor calls Charlie Weadock, a retired Internal Affairs Investigator, whose brother-in-law was one of the victims. Charlie might be a little rusty, but it doesn’t take him long to learn that Superior Beef is associated with a New York crime family. The case is overshadowed by the mob, as well as distractions from several government agencies and the fact that Charlie’s wife is pregnant, but he blocks out the media hubbub and accepts the mayor’s challenge. He creates his own investigative team by gathering a group of current and former police officers and one world class criminal informant.

The Balkan Photo
In the summer of 1987 in Romania, Coronel Nicolae Mollica has just murdered the communist party treasurer. He has no fear of being caught--until he notices tourist Maria O'Sullivan taking pictures that may include him. Photographs are retrieved ... but not all of them. The vacationing O'Sullivan family has now become embroiled in a matter of national security. Now, the O'Sullivans and twenty-four other Americans on a tour bus are in great danger. They find themselves accused of murder and trapped behind the Iron Curtain. Tour guide Peter Korzo has run up against Mollica before; he knows what the man is capable of, but he is willing to risk his life to escape with his new American friends. Mollica will stop at nothing, however, in order to remain in power. His indiscretion cannot be revealed, so with the help of the Romanian Secret Police and a nation of informants, he hunts the O'Sullivan family. He must have the photo but now he also wants Maria. He lies when he offers her safety and freedom for her family in exchange for a night of sex, Will she accept his offer?
The Lost Lamb
Thirty-eight-year-old Angus Branigan, an abusive husband and father, a compulsive gambler, and a lazy, self-centered brute of a man, reaches his darkest hour when he shoots a policeman during a botched robbery and escapes with three bullets in his back. Some blocks away from the crime scene, he hides in Epiphany Church, an old church in lower Manhattan. Bleeding, alone, and dying, he argues his right to live with the statue of a shepherd with a baby lamb. In the midst of a violent thunderstorm, Branigan swaps his soul with the statue and finds himself outside the church uninjured, wearing an expensive suit with money in its pocket. He is stunned by this happenstance; he has an opportunity to see the life he could have lived had he made different choices. The next morning, the parish priest finds the statue of the shepherd bleeding from three holes in its back. A novel of abuse and love, The Lost Lamb explores the reality of miracles, forgiveness, and the power of second chances.

Vehicle Hill Tracks in Northern Scotland
This book is the most comprehensive account on the spread of vehicle tracks on hill land in northern Scotland that has occurred since the mid 1950s. It reviews timing, numbers, locations, distribution and impacts including run-off, soils and vegetation. Then it provides an impartial analysis of the generally low standards of construction and reinstatement, with recommendations to minimise impacts and maximise reinstatement. Included is a brief history of public concern about tracks. This culminated in a petition and debate in the Scottish Parliament and a decision by the Government Minister to hold a consultative review of planning procedures relevant to the control of tracks. The current book constitutes a sound factual baseline and store of technical information, richly illustrated with 58 colour photographs. This will benefit all, including the government, planning officers, landowners and the public who appreciate and value the Scottish countryside and wish to leave this priceless heritage in good heart for the benefit of future generations. Unfortunately a recent 'good practice guide' published by Scottish Natural Heritage is inadequate.
