Stiletto Dance (Full Frame)
The Russian mob. They maneuver in a world of drugs, vodka and murder. Expensive suits and cheap sex. It's a world where anything is possible and no one can be trusted. A world that is theirs for the taking until an undercover cop infiltrates their ranks with orders to bring them down. But this cop may be in too deep; killing for the mob, seduced by the wife of their most brutal enforcer, risking his life and the entire mission. The temptation to cross the line could land him in a warm bed or a cold grave. For this undercover cop, every move could be deadly unless he stays one step ahead.

Outlaw Treasures by W. C. Jameson, ISBN 0874834937
W.C. Jameson, a geographer and environmentalist, has toured much of the country in a battered, green Ford pick-up truck, collecting legends and searching for the elusive riches that treasure hunters believe await them. His sources include his own fieldwork and archival documents, as well as the reports of die-hard treasure seekers and their descendents.
Jameson takes his listeners back to a time when the six-gun was king, life was cheap, and many a bandit died before recovering his stolen loot.
