Killer kool : a Mango Bay mystery / by Ambrose, Marty.(CARDINAL)492559;
It's October on Coral Island, and Mallie Monroe is learning how to multitask: she's juggling two men, Nick and Cole; helping her office pal, Sandy, plan a fall wedding; and trying to find a way to adjust to her new assignment as the Observer's food critic. The summer doldrums are officially over as the island prepares for cooler weather and its first Taste of the Island. Unfortunately, Madame Geri, the island's freelance psychic, appears at the newspaper declaring that the upcoming nuptials of her son, Jimmy, and Sandy are in jeopardy because of a possible killer on the loose. Mallie knows where to start: Carlos Santini has recently died from an apparent heart attack, and everyone believes that his brother, Chef Marco, was somehow involved. So Mallie teams up with Madame Geri to add another task to her list: solve the crime and make certain that the wedding doesn't end up on a canceled list.

Music by Large Professor.Featuring Eli Gesner, Jefferson Pang, Rosario Dawson, Darryl McDaniels, Kid Capri, Stretch, Bobbito, Kool Keith ; narrated by Eli Gesner.In the late '80s and early '90s, the streets of downtown Manhattan were the site of a collision between two vibrant subcultures: skateboarding and hip-hop. Narrated by Zoo York co-founder Eli Gesner with an original score by legendary hip-hop producer Large Professor (Nas, A Tribe Called Quest), this documentary brings to life the magic of the time and the convergence that created a style and visual language that would have an outsized and enduring cultural effect. From the DJ booths and dance floors of the Mars nightclub to the founding of brands like Supreme, this convergence would lay the foundation for modern street style. Paris Is Burning meets Larry Clark's KIDS; this is a love letter to New York, examining race, society, fashion, and street culture.DVD; NTSC, region 1; 2.39:1. 16 x 9 widescreen; Dolby digital 5.1 surround and 2.0 stereo.
