ROSCOE

Roscoe takes us through the streets of San Francisco-a man without a home, but with a sharp, unrelenting way of seeing a world that has largely stopped noticing him. Over the course of twelve hours, he takes us through his day: unfiltered, darkly humorous, and disarmingly precise. What unfolds is not only a life on the margins, but a sustained reckoning with society itself-its indifference, its contradictions, and its fleeting moments of grace. Through Roscoe's voice, we encounter violence and vulnerability, chance meetings and fractured conversations, as well as moments of unexpected kindness-what remains when everything else is stripped away. In a voice that is both irreverent and deeply humane, ROSCOE moves between confession and confrontation. It is at once an intimate, voice-led portrait of one man and a wider exploration of the fractured realities of modern America. Andrew J. Gregor's novel is unsentimental, unsettling, and ultimately compassionate-a reminder that those we overlook are never without thought, dignity, or a story worth hearing. 📖 Available on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4oB43ma [https://amzn.to/4oB43ma]

Houdini: The Man Who Died Twice: A True Crime Investigation into Harry Houdini’s Death

Was Harry Houdini’s death really caused by a ruptured appendix — or did the official story hide something darker? In this true crime investigation, former surgeon Larrian Gillespie reopens the cold case of the world’s greatest escape artist using medical evidence, eyewitness accounts, death certificates, and the paper trail Houdini left behind. A century after his death, the mystery of Harry Houdini still refuses to stay buried. The official story says the world’s greatest magician died from a ruptured appendix after being punched in the stomach. But the documents, witnesses, medical evidence, and timing tell a more complicated story. Part biography, part forensic investigation, and part cinematic true crime narrative, Houdini: The Man Who Died Twice traces Houdini’s final days through hospital records, eyewitness accounts, spiritualist enemies, family tensions, and the tangled motives of those who surrounded him. Along the way, it resurrects the world of vaudeville, spiritualism, and early twentieth‑century fame — a world where truth was as slippery as a handcuff key and reputation could vanish in a puff of smoke. "Houdini: The Man Who Died Twice" is more than a history; it's an autopsy of legend — a search for the man behind the myth, and the truth behind the greatest escape of all.
