Killer Nurses, Getaway Drivers, Global Thriller, and a Lout

DVD

Sick Nurses starring [a bunch of Thais]. Seven nurses and a doctor have been selling patients' body part. One nurse threatens to go to the police and the others kill her. Seven days later she returns to haunt them.
In Arizona one of myLibrary Pages was named Pinintorn. Pinintorn was a lovely gal and really smart. It was not until a couple weeks before she left for college in Tucson that she mentioned she had been in the country for only three years or so. I was incredulous. Her English is perfect. Geeze she was smart.

Fiction

Cold Spot by Tom Piccirilli. Raised to be a getaway driver by his violent, con-man grandfather Chase meets a lady cop and goes straight. When he has to go back into the crime life he has to ask his repulsive grandfather for help.

AudioBooks

Whole Truth by David Baldacci. A defense contractor, a government troubleshooter, and a journalist cross paths "as a series of events is set in motion that could change the world as we know it."

Prince of Frogtown by Rick Bragg. Rick Bragg learns that "a man who chases a woman with a child is like a dog who chases a car and wins. He discovers that he is unsuited to fatherhood, unsuited to fathering this boy in particular, a boy who does not know how to throw a punch and doesn't need to; a boy unaccustomed to love and affection rather than violence and neglect' in short, a boy wholly unlike the child Rick once was."
