Marked for deception / by Blakely, Anna,author.;
He lied to catch a killer. She just wanted to escape the past. Neither realized just how deadly their deceptions could be. Denver homicide detective Declan King lives by a strict code. But when he's tasked with using an escaped serial killer's daughter to catch the twisted murderer, his black and white world becomes blurred in ways he never could've imagined. Twelve years ago, Skye Lewis' silence cost two women their lives. Since then, she's lived a life of solitude. The unbearable guilt and shame, her penance. The only solace Skye feels comes from the knowledge that her serial killer father will spend the rest of his life behind bars. But when he escapes, and Skye's life is put in danger, she finds comfort and protection from an unlikely source... The man who arrested her father all those years before. Despite the secrets hovering between them, Declan and Skye soon find themselves caught in a web of passion and danger. But when their truths are revealed, the love they've only just discovered isn't the only thing at risk. Because if Declan can't neutralize the threat against Skye in time, he'll lose more than his reputation as the best detective in Denver...He'll lose the only woman he's ever loved. --

The gangs of Zion : a Black cop's crusade in Mormon country / by Stallworth, Ron,author.(CARDINAL)548898; Quintero, Sofia,author.(CARDINAL)475438;
The Accidental Policeman -- We Ain't Brothers -- Straight Outta Colorado -- Canyons and Cowboys -- Arriving in the Beehive -- You're Not in Disneyland -- Gangsta's Paradise -- Heads in the Sand -- "Turn Up the Volume!" -- "Real" Niggas and One Crazy Motherfucker -- Skinheads -- Denial is Not a Lake in Utah -- Chasing Miles -- One-Time Pass -- Cop Killer -- Letter from an OG -- "Gangster Rap Made Me Do It" -- Testifyin' -- Hammer Didn't Hurt 'Em -- Gangsta Rap on Trial -- Mr. Stallworth Goes to Washington Again -- You Don't Have To Agree... -- Straight-Edgers and Race-Baiters -- Blindsided -- Endings Foreseen and Unwanted -- Jemijo -- When One Door Closes... -- Back to Booty -- The Challenge."New York Times bestselling author of Black Klansman, Ron Stallworth, returns with another firsthand account of trailblazing police work in the most unlikely place for a Black cop in the '90s. Determined to pursue his passion for undercover work wherever it leads, Ron Stallworth finally lands in Salt Lake City, Utah. Once again, he's an outsider-not only as a Black man on a mostly white police force but also as an unapologetic nonbeliever in a state dominated by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. But soon after his first drug bust in the Beehive, Stallworth makes a startling discovery-Bloods and Crips are infiltrating Mormon Country, threatening to turn the deeply conservative community into a hotbed of crime. Kids are bombing homes while carrying pocket versions of the Book of Mormon, yet his fellow cops are in denial that gangs are wreaking havoc in their Christian town. Now Stallworth has a new mission. Whether facing off with skinheads at a downtown bar or schooling white Crips blasting "F*ck tha Police," he is intent on stemming the tide of gangs into the state. But those he expected to be his allies either have their heads in the sand or their own agendas-from the racist Mormon legislator to the community activist exploiting a fatal gang incident to spread paranoia over an imaginary race war. As he butts heads with these so-called leaders, Stallworth also realizes that gangsta rap has the key to the g-code. He becomes obsessed with-even defensive of-the music he once loathed and puts himself on the front lines of America's culture war. Now he's spitting uncensored lyrics before Congress and taking the stand in the 1993 murder case that puts hip-hop on trial. But the more Stallworth speaks truth to power, the more determined the gatekeepers in Utah are to silence him, and not even twenty-three years of police work could prepare him for how low they would stoop"--

The DAR / by Gibbs, Margaret.(CARDINAL)165801;
Bibliography: pages 233-236."What do the Daughters do?" -- The second reveille -- Adam's rib -- Salad days -- The good years -- Over the top -- Crab-grass roots -- "The blue menace" -- Hesitation waltz -- A little child shall lead them -- "White artists only" -- Cat's cradle -- Burning the books -- Blest be the tie that binds."DAR membership has included Mrs. Tom Thumb, Grandma Moses, and almost all the First Ladies of the Land. DAR projects have included barring Hazel Scott, Marian Anderson, and Joan Baez from its Assembly Hall. DAR notepaper bore the inscription, 'Greetings--Please don't send me a UNICEF card.' DAR program of school book supervision has condemned John Hersey's Hiroshima as 'pacifist indoctrination for world government.' But when the DAR demanded a gold count at Fort Knox in the 1940s, President Truman suggested that the ladies go do it themselves. Are they the last true Americans or reactionary menaces? Is their disapproval the kiss of death--or the highest of accolades? In the most candid account ever written about the DAR, Margaret Gibbs tells the whole amazing, anecdote-packed story of these ladies whose impact on American life has often been quite serious. The Daughters of the American Revolution think of themselves as patriots, dedicated to preserving America's past and protecting her present as if it were her past. Founded in the nineteenth century as the 'American' answer to the flood of new immigrants to the country, the DAR now counts its membership at over 100,000. Throughout their stormy history, the members of the DAR have enforced a social code and a system of values that date from the nineteenth century. In this book, Margaret Gibbs presents a wealth of facts about the DAR that adds up to a witty, authoritative expose. The DAR is American social history at its very best--a book for the friends, enemies, fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, husbands, and sons of the Daughters."--Dust jacket flap.
