  Convicted

  $24.69

  He was a juvenile delinquent, an angry kid with no reason to play by the rules. His mission in life was to wreak havoc anywhere and anytime he could. His parents were afraid of him, and his teachers hated him. Other than smoking marijuana, his favorite pastime was theft. Every once in a while he spent a night in the local detention center.Then, on Halloween night, he got caught driving a getaway car loaded with cash, drugs, and guns. But this time he wasn’t getting off with a slap on the wrist. Everything he’d done up until now was child’s play in comparison. Seven counts of kidnapping, two burglaries, and three armed robberies guaranteed 16-year old Andrew Michell some serious time behind bars.Yet it was in solitary confinement that he first tasted true freedom, first felt that there was any purpose to his life. One copy of The Living Bible in the hands of this very bored teenager had an effect that no one in Andrew’s life would have ever predicted.

  In The Shadow Of The Mob

  $2.77

  Keep your mouth shut, Carl told himself, trying to act normal around his mom and his brother. The secret knowledge that his dad’s life might be in danger burned hotly in his brain, and as his dad disappeared down the front steps, Carl knew there was a serious possibility he would never see his father again.

  Carl had been raised to keep secrets. If he didn’t, either his dad would land in jail, or his dad’s gruesome death would be plastered on the cover of the New York Daily News. That’s because Carl’s dad was a member of the Italian Mafia.

  At first, living in the shadow of the mob didn’t seem so bad. Sure, Carl’s parents didn’t get along, and his extended family treated them all like outcasts. But Carl and his family had practically everything that money could buy . . . until his dad made a million-dollar mistake that would change their lives forever.

  Of course, no one but God knew that the change would turn out to be the best thing that ever happened to them-even though the enemy had other plans.
