This was a system of checking in the Ralston National Bank. [more]

The circus has come to Middleton Village and everyone is excited - except for the seven teens who already had their fair share of trouble. Seven individuals (out of eight total) chosen to combat witchcraft in that town and the world find this turn of events disconcerting for two reasons: 1. A circus has never been allowed into town before. 2. The Ladies Aid Society (witches) invited them. What reason would the witches have to invite in strangers after all these years? The Seven soon find out exactly why. Sleight-of-hand, robbery, and con-men are nothing to the horrors that truly lie at the source of this road show. The Seven must once again defeat real magic - and capture a stone that would set their world on fire - literally. [more]

Her father always said that there are three situations when it's a bad idea to use an elevator: when there's a fire in the building, when there's a robbery, and when you're in need of a quick escape. However, as she was caught in the midst of all three, an elevator seemed to be Lucy's only route of departure. Certainly burglary and fire complicated things, especially since Lucy was the thief. The fire she could only blame on the devil; perhaps he'd finally come for her. She didn't know. All she knew was that she was going to come out of that building cop-free or not at all. [more]

Tom Brown is usually guilty. His nickname is Trouble. He steals his roommate's wallet and cell phone all the time. He often trashes the school office and floods the school bathrooms. And if there is a prank to be played, he will do it. So it is only natural for the half-imp to be identified as the culprit of any and every minor crime committed in a 30 mile radius. Yet when the police come around to claim Tom for burglary in the area near China Town where Gulinger Private Academy has relocated, Tom is adamant that he is not guilty. Can they believe him? Or is he doomed to be forever guilty? [more]

'The Hooligan Nights' by Clarence Rook (1899) is a classic contemporary description of crime on the streets of 1890s Lambeth. The book is told through a series of interviews with its teenage protagonist, the charismatic 'Alf' - we learn about his upbringing, his criminal exploits, including burglary, pickpocketing, passing counterfeit money and bare-knuckle fights. Alf is a magnificent character, full of spirit and charm, but capable of evoking our pity. Each interview leaves the reader wanting to know more about his fate - not least, will the 'coppers' catch up with him? The book is a unique description of 'low life', written at the zenith of Queen's Victoria's reign, achieved without sentiment or moralising. Was Alf a real boy, an amalgam of different people, or a work of pure fiction? There are no definitive answers to this puzzle, but he remains one of the great 'lost' characters of English fiction.

The county jail is an institution rife with violence and destruction until Rollo Heinz is brought in pending arraignment for burglary. Following a strange vision while waiting to be admitted, he is placed in a cell with "Beautiful" Myron Fleur. Together they hatch a plan to quell the violence, but not every inmate is on board, especially one Zippo Gonzalez. Note: The info concerning the content length is totally incorrect. There are 81 pages when you open the "script". When I created the book for a contest here in 2011 (Wendy Reakes beat me out for 1st place, lol...that was okay, she is/was a pal, and even helped me edit it), I had a helluva' time formatting in normal script; mostly that the script was SO light!
