The Ranks of Jody Brae
Jonathan Michael Cullen
"It's Boston, the 1960's, and the dark streets of a city long past its prime are right in your face in this tale of hapless crooks, indifferent cops and raging infernos. Not just a story about a cop on a mission, Bean-town bred Cullen slips you a passport to a wold chock full of odd-ball characters you won't want to hug or hide from either. The scenes sparkle like vapor on a ladder-truck spotlight while Cullen's ear for dead-on dialogue keeps the tale rolling. The Ranks of Jody Brae reads like a winner."
From the Boston Globe Best-Selling Author of "Boyos" and "In for a Pound," - Richard Marinick

COMMUNITY FOODBANK OF HOUSTON"
New York, New York November 29, 2009: Bryant Park Press, Inc. will host a book signing reception and fund raiser for writer Jeffrey Onorato, author of The SIN of Addison Hall. The event will also raise money for the Food Bank of Houston. In addition to a percentage of all books sales at the event going to the Food Bank, attendees are being asked to bring a non-perishable food donation. The event is December 5, 2009, from 7:00pm-8:30pm at Sherlock’s Baker Street Pub 1952 A West Gray Street, Houston.
Shari Goldhagen, Author of Family and Other Accidents has written; “With echoes of Vonnegut, The SIN of Addison Hall conjures a chilling dystopia where beauty rules. Even more frightening is how close to home this world hits”. Brett Ellen Block, Author of The Lightning Rule also acclaimed the book as; Artfully wrought and full of strong imagery, Onorato has crafted a world where how you look is how you live. This is a story that demands to be read”.
The seed for Onorato’s debut novel, “The SIN of Addison Hall”, was planted in the fall of 1999. While in his twenties Mr. Onorato visited the gym religiously and one Sunday morning, as he pulled into his gym's packed parking lot, he noticed that the lot of the church next to his gym had more empty beer cans than cars. It occurred to him that toning his body was more important to him then nurturing his soul and obviously he was not alone. Seven years later, writing primarily in overpriced coffee houses and Irish pubs, Mr. Onorato finished a novel that warns of the dangers of carnality. The novel has been well received and can be purchased at www.blockislandbooks, Amazon.com, and through bookstores everywhere. From now until Dec. 24, 2009 a dollar from every book purchased directly from the publisher’s website will go to the Food Bank of Houston.
"The Center for Public Policy estimates that 9% of the US residents are suffering from hunger or food insecurity. Everyone knows someone who is on the verge of joining this group so I believe it is critical to help our neighbors during these difficult financial times".
