Jonathan Fredrick’s debut novel, Cash City, has been released by Audible Studios. Audible Studios summarizes Cash City this way: It is an obsession that has haunted Nick Malick for seven years – to avenge the murder of his young son. In his gut, Malick knows who did it. But the psychopath is in prison for another crime, scheduled to be released in a year. All Malick has to do is wait…and survive. The tragedy cost Malick his marriage and his career. Now he scrapes by as a PI in the blue-collar town of Cain City, West Virginia. His latest case tasks him with finding a young woman gone missing. Seems simple enough. But when his investigation exposes a link between a corrupt police force and a drug gang from Detroit, Cain City explodes. And Malick finds himself dead center. To be included, send the book and the publisher’s press release to: Office of Communications Georgetown College 400 East College St. Georgetown, KY 40324 Or send publisher’s press release and hi-resolution book cover image to alumni@ georgetowncollege.edu.
Turns out when there’s no one to trust and a whole lot of people want you dead, survival and revenge aren’t so easy. Ari Fliakos narrates the 9 hours 47 minutes unabridged audiobook.

This one-of-a-kind book tells the fascinating story of blood groups and the people who study them. “The story of blood groups always begins in Vienna with Karl Landsteiner.” So begins this uniquely fascinating tale of how the blood groups were discovered and the interesting people who made those discoveries. Meticulously referenced, this volume is also lavishly illustrated as it recalls the progression of knowledge in blood grouping that continues today. This is the story not only of Landsteiner, Levine, Wiener, Race, Sanger, and other early giants, but also of Mollison, Garratty, Marsh, Tippett, Issitt, Judd, and many, many others who have made their mark on the profession and trained others who even now are doing the same. Ten years in the making, this treasure is enlightening, engaging, and enjoyable to read-well worth the wait. Hardback, 633 pages AABB Press October, 2016
