Publisher's summary
Welcome to the Jungle—The Curse of Clark, Texas is a true-crime thriller based on real, actual events. While certain characters, names, incidents, locations, and dialogue have been fictionalized for dramatic effect—what has not been fictionalized is that in 1980-something, tragedy struck one of the most affluent high-schools in the state of Texas. Was Tom C. Clark High School in San Antonio, Texas cursed?
This book explores the possible murder of two innocent teens, countless others committing suicide, lives lost in horrible accidents, bodies wrecked by head-on-collisions, a teen who tackled Mexico’s feared drug cartels plus the FBI, and a string of scandalous teacher-student affairs that destroyed the lives of all involved.
It wasn’t all murder and mayhem in a place called Clark, Texas. Anyone who made it through the dark, dense jungle of high school in 1980-something experienced: Friday night lights, first loves, the most majestic music decade ever, an iconic movie era, beer bongs, bonfires, and the never-ending party that consumed us all during those influential years. What you are about to hear and / or read is based on actual events. Beware-Take Caution-Buckle Up—you wanna know why? You’re in the jungle baby! Welcome to the Jungle—The Curse of Clark, Texas.

Story
Kidnappers grabbed Jenna in broad daylight, right in front of her children and their horrified classmates. Her family was issued an insane ransom demand: $25 million in cash and jewels, payable by the end of the school day, otherwise they’ll never see her again. As Jenna’s mother scrambles to gather the money, detectives Mo Butler and George Ortega follow the trail of the kidnappers, which will lead them through a sordid landscape of jealous lovers, broken dreamers, and twisted schemers. But every second counts, and there’s one thing Jenna Wade doesn’t have: very much time.

It was 1970 in a defeated Rhode Island fishing town. Vietnam and Nixon dominated the national news. Both the near and distant future looked bleak. But they were five inseparable high school friends with something incredible in common: an unwavering resolve to look after each other no matter what hell life threw at them. And they were on a mission. The plan was simple: Go off the grid before they turned 18 to avoid the draft. They’d sell some grass, stack some cash, then head west and start a commune. What could possibly go wrong?

Story
Follow the Angels, Follow the Doves is an origin story in the true American tradition. Before Bass Reeves could stake his claim as the most successful nineteenth-century American lawman, arresting more outlaws than any other deputy during his thirty-two-year career as a deputy US marshal in some of the most dangerous regions of the Wild West, he was a slave. After a childhood picking cotton, Reeves became an expert marksman under his master's tutelage, winning shooting contests throughout the region. His skill had serious implications, however, as the Civil War broke out.

After the climate wars, a floating city is constructed in the Arctic Circle, a remarkable feat of mechanical and social engineering, complete with geothermal heating and sustainable energy. The city's denizens have become accustomed to a roughshod new way of living; however, the city is starting to fray along the edges - crime and corruption have set in, the contradictions of incredible wealth alongside direst poverty are spawning unrest, and a new disease called "the breaks" is ravaging the population.

Rice Moore is just beginning to think his troubles are behind him. He’s found a job protecting a remote forest preserve in Virginian Appalachia where his main responsibilities include tracking wildlife and refurbishing cabins.

But when Rice finds the carcass of a bear killed on the grounds, the quiet solitude he’s so desperately sought is suddenly at risk.

Forgotten memories and new revelations
Loved this book. Brought me back to my days in Clark, TX. The 80’s that it covered was slightly before me, but I still remember some of it. Brought back good memories of warm nights at football games, tailgate parties and some favorite places. Not really the group I would have hung out with or been accepted into, but brought back memories of my group of friends. Thank you for the walk down memory lane.
