3 Day Terror
by Vin PackerShe was hurrying past the field on her way home when the man stepped out from behind a tree and stood spraddle-legged in her path. Ginny Lee was uncommonly pretty, a small girl with unusually long legs for someone her size, good legs with finely molded ankles; and her breasts above the rounded hips and very thin waist were large and full, not in a way that gave her a top-heavy look, but a proud, feminine look. Ginny Lee was happy about her looks except for one thing: she needed glasses. She stood there blinking and squinting, trying to recognize the man who stood there so menacingly. “Who are you?” she asked, suddenly frightened. He laughed, took her roughly, and threw her down.

by Arantxa Urretabizkaia BejaranoKalera irten, egunero irteten ginen, are alargundu osteko neguan eta udaberri euritsu hartan. Gorrik buru belarri sinesten du onuragarria dela kalera irtetea, nuragarri ibiltzea eta, era berea, jendea ikustea, gure etxean egunero bisitaren bat bagenuen ere. Hori bai, protesta egiten zuen euria zen bakoitzean. Gero esango dute adinarekin itzali egiten direla grinak, ahuldu.

Zaharregia zara bizitza berri bati ekiteko, esan zidan semeak eta gorrotoa gorde zalea ez banaiz ere, ez dut oraindik esaldia ahaztu.

Gorri, ordea, esango nuke, zenbat eta zaharrago, orduan eta grinatsuago dela edo hori esaten dit, behintzat, berez gezurtia den memoriak.

3 Quarters: A Novel
by Denis HamillBeginning his search for the truth at a shady security firm that employs able-bodied ex-cops, all of whom have mysteriously qualified for medical pensions—equal to a cool three-quarters of their salaries—he stumbles upon a startling discovery: the cremated remains that led to his conviction didn't really belong to Dorothea. <P><P> Bobby has a few allies: his policeman brother, his hacker daughter, his flamboyantly unprincipled lawyer, a cop or two who stood by him through the trial. But the same forces that landed him in jail more than a year before are putting a smothering squeeze on him now—and all roads lead to a powerful politician who will let nothing get between himself and the governor's mansion. As the struggle to find the truth—and Dorothea—intensifies, Bobby begins to suspect that those around him are not as loyal as they appear. His liberty and very life depend on whether or not he can discover how high—and how near—the conspiracy goes before the trap closes on him. At once lyrical and riveting, Three Quarters crackles in its electric setting, reverberating with a "relentless energy" (Lawrence Block) fueled by Hamill's intimate knowledge of and intense passion for New York City.
