As far as Jake Weir is concerned, he's living the high life. Paranormal Properties, his parents' ghost-hunting show, has been picked up by the popular Scream Channel, and if their new high-rise apartment on San Francisco Bay is anything to go by, the future is definitely looking bright. However, that future depends on one important thing: the success of Paranormal Properties' first official episode. If Jake and his family can prove themselves with an exciting, successful premiere, they get to stay with the Scream Channel - if not, well, Jake doesn't want to imagine going back to the desperate life they used to live. To succeed, the Weirs are going to have to tackle their biggest case yet. Old, infamous, and abandoned for decades, the Balthazar Hotel is thought to be the eternal prison of its inhabitants, victims of a terrible fire that nearly destroyed the hotel in 1921. The Balthazar holds many secrets, and many memories, and as the Weirs investigate the mysteries surrounding the hotel in a race to complete the first episode, they quickly learn that things are much more complicated, and more dangerous, than they seem. Even with the help of his obstinate best friend Tank, and the fearless gangster ghost Frank Barrone, Jake starts to wonder if saving Paranormal Properties is worth it, if they may not even get out of the Balthazar Hotel alive.

This beautiful and strong island, dubbed the European Caribbean, sometimes despised for the gigantic hotel complexes on one beach, sports an enchanting splendor of picturesque and surprising spots in the natives" old Mallorca nearly unknown to tourists. This book thus shows - besides curiosities about better-known sights - locations where apartment houses hang over cliffs, for instance, or where to discover the tracks of the founder of San Francisco, where you can meet the devil, or particularly strong women, and where, perhaps for this reason, a church is standing on its head; where to find ancient Rome on the beach, where a bridge which is millions of years old arches over the sea, how the island's dark underworld looks, in what kinds of dens people lived on Mallorca around 1,000 B.C, where citizens are guarded by a grimacing face, where secret medieval orders left their traces, on which mountains three cloisters, as old as the hills, are stuck above each other like swallows" nests, or - speaking of cloisters - in which one Frédéric Chopin's piano still stands today.

Prison escapee searches for the best religion in which to die in this broad-brush, irreverent look at violence, religion, and sex in contemporary America. Split Land of Liberty presents a broad-brush black humor look at violence, religion, and sex in America in the middle 1990s. An escaped convict named Canno is looking for the perfect religion in which to die. For him, this would be one that offers the best deal for eternity. He reasons that we shop around for such temporary dwellings as houses, condos, and apartments, so why not shop for the place where we might have to spend eternity. As Canno travels across America, he is shocked by all the confrontations and violence he encounters. However, he soon adapts in a way that he least expects. Canno's quest takes him to such places as San Francisco, Loggersheadville, Las Vegas, New York City, Enfirmo, Bradenton FL, Interstate Highway 95, and the Niukiuke Indian Reservation and Luxury Hotel. The confrontations and violence that Canno encounters include rival Viking biker gangs, loggers and environmentalists, pro-lifers and pro-choicers, cowboys and Indians, liberals and conservatives, smokers and non-smokers, abusive husbands and murderous wives, and many, many more. With a loaded shotgun in his mouth and the law quickly closing in on him, the book's conclusion finds Canno deciding about his future-immediate and long term.

The Globe Apartments, six stories of decaying brick and concrete, rises above San Francisco's volatile Tenderloin district. The seedy former hotel, once a haven for the city's down and out, now houses Vietnamese families striving to improve their lives. But P.I. Sharon McCone believes that someone from the Tenderloin's shadowy underworld is determined to drive the newcomers out. The suspects range from the colorful to the dangerous: a poetry-loving drifter, a mean-spirited preacher, a flower seller with a deadly touch, an enterprising pornographer, and a developer who'd like nothing better than to unload his worst investment - the Globe Hotel. When All Souls is called upon the pattern of intimidation, resentment explodes into murder. As McCone takes up the refugees' cause, she is drawn into the depths of the city's most hated industry - and into the secrets of San Francisco's buried past.

We stay in them for a variety of reasons - for business, for pleasure or, perhaps, as we are passing through a town or city on our way to somewhere else. They provide a brief respite in such a journey or a place to retreat from the cares of a busy day. For some unlucky souls, however, they are the end of the line, the last place where they will ever lay their heads. The notable and notorious have made a habit of taking their last curtain call in hotels. Some, of course, have had no choice - in 1957 mob leader Albert 'Mad Hatter' Anastasia was blasted at almost point-blank range by three gunmen as he dozed in the chair of the Park Sheraton Hotel, Manhattan. Meanwhile Murder, Inc's most feared hit man, Abel 'Kid Twist' Reles, mysteriously 'fell' from a window of the Half Moon Hotel on Coney Island in 1941, despite being guarded by half a dozen armed police officer

The Adventures of Harold J. Kat is a rollicking true tale told in a cat's own words about his adventurous life with his human type mom and the love they shared with one another. The story begins with Harry as a kitten at the local pound and Gail, his soon to be mom, adopting him and whisking him off on one adventure after another. Harry is a short haired all American red tabby who is truly a "Jet Set" cat. He tells of many trips on planes and automobiles to cities like San Francisco, Las Vegas, Miami, Destin, and Fort Myers Florida and finally ending up in Washington DC. He wears the latest fashions, parties with his mom's friends, and witnesses the on-going feud between his mom and her X-husband. He tells about all the times he and his mom were evicted from apartments and ended up living on a shrimp boat. When they finally move to Washington DC, mom gets involved in the women's rights movement. When she marches on Washington for issues such as "Equal pay for equal work", Harry decides to champion a Kat's Rights movement. He thinks about how he and thousands of other cats ended up in the pound with no rights. So he rounds up all his friends, the alley cats, stray cats and even the spoiled cats to bring forth issues such as "no more death row at the pound" , "allow cats in motel rooms" adopt an alley cat today". Harry started his life in the pound and ended up in Washington DC marching on the Capitol of the United States, all because he was adopted by his wonderful mom and got to go on the wildest adventure ever.
