WHEN for the third or fourth time during the spring or summer I take my hoe and go out and cut off the heads of the lusty burdocks that send out their broad leaves along the edge of my garden or lawn, I often ask myself, "What is this thing that is so hard to scotch here in the grass?"

"Nothing is more important to a modern political party than fund-raising. But the values of the donors can't always coincide with the professed beliefs of the party. And family scandal within the cabinet has the potential to throw both the money-raisers and the money-spenders into chaos"--Back cover.

The Judas Kiss

4.0 (1)

Oscar Wilde's relationship with Lord Alfred Douglas has inspired contemporary writers for decades. In his account of love tested to destruction, David Hare presents his powerful interpretation of what may have happened behind closed doors between Wilde and Douglas. The Judas Kiss lays bare the drama of two critical moments in Wilde's last years: the day he decides to stay in England and face imprisonment, and the night after his release, two years later, when the lover for whom he risked and lost everything betrays him. The Judas Kiss presents the consequences of taking an uncompromisingly moral position in a world defined by fear, expedience, and conformity.

When crime is running high, one wrong move can mean disaster! Frank and Joe have come halfway around the world to investigate sabotage on a movie set.

And as soon as they set foot in this land of mystery, it's bombs away over Bombay! The Hardys rush to the movie set, where there are lights, cameras, and nonstop action. Someone's determined to put them out of commission by whatever means necessary: powerful explosives, razor-edged machetes, a cobra's poisonous fangs. The Hardys can't afford to miss their mark...because this is one flick sure to have a killer climax!
