On a frigid winter night in early 1963, Rocco Anthony Balliro and a pair of associates stormed a darkened apartment on the outskirts of Boston and were immediately embroiled in a deadly shootout with several unseen assailants. Unbeknownst to Rocco at the time, the men who returned his fire were several Boston police officers, waiting in ambush for him. It was, as Rocco later described it, a hastily planned rescue mission that went downhill in a hurry. In the aftermath, his beloved girlfriend and her toddler son lay dead.

HELLS ANGEL "PEE WEE" FINALLY HAD TO POINT HIS MOTORCYCLE OUT OF THE CLUB -- HE LOVED THE BROTHERHOOD CONCEPT BUT REAL LIFE DIDN'T MATCH THE EXPECTATIONS. DEEPLY PERSPONAL AND VASTLY ENTERTAINING, PEE WEE GIVES US A FAST AND FURIOUS HOUR OF GREAT TRUE STORIES WITH PLENTY OF "F BOMBS" CONSIDER THIS BETWEEN PG-13 AND SOFT R :-)
Pee Wee says:This is a true-life description of the events in my life... as a man, father, husband, wrestler, boxer, greaser, Sinners Motorcycle Club member, and, of course, a full patch member of the notorious Hells Angels. I lived the life of a real deal leader in several different chapters of the Angels. And I always lived up to what I thought was the true meaning of "Brotherhood" as best I could. But the ideals I had eventually came crashing down as my expectations of many of the members of infamous outlaw biker club (and other clubs, too) were not the same as mine. That's why I eventually had to leave the Angels behind and quit that lifestyle. I saw that the ideals of '"brotherhood" were just words to many, with no real meaning backing them up. There's no disrespect intended to anyone associated with this club, or any of the other clubs mentioned in the pages of this book. To this day, I still maintain many great friendships with brothers from the Angels as well as the other clubs I've been associated with.

Chasson's Run Is a gripping true crime tale that will leave you on the edge of your seat. On September 6, 1982, convicted murderer Leroy James Chasson made a daring break for freedom from the Massachusetts Correctional Institute-Walpole-one of the most infamous, escape-proof prisons in the country. But this wasn't just any prison break. It was a meticulously planned, five-year effort, made possible by an unlikely accomplice-Kathleen MacDonald, Chasson's former pen-pal turned wife.
In this riveting account, true crime author Daniel Zimmerman (SHOTS IN THE DARK) brings the shocking escape to life, detailing how Chasson, wounded and bleeding from self-inflicted wounds was first transferred to a hospital for treatment. Then, using a .45 automatic smuggled to him by his wife who was disguised as a nurse, took hospital guards and staff hostage, before fleeing under a hail of gunfire.
Dubbed the "Bonnie and Clyde" of Massachusetts, the couple's daring run across the country captivated the nation and they would evade capture for years. Living under assumed identities, they nearly made it-until a tip from America's Most Wanted led to their eventual capture in 1989.
In CHASSON'S RUN, Zimmerman creates a true crime masterpiece. A story of passion, crime, and a love that defied the law.
Daniel Zimmerman, the author of the action-packed saga Shots in the Dark, has added a highly anticipated second book to his True Crime resume. In Chasson’s Run, Zimmerman chronicles the notorious escape of convicted killer Leroy James Chasson from Massachusetts Walpole State Prison. Armed with equal parts ingenuity, guile and a .45 automatic, Chasson took flight from a hospital ER with his accomplice wife at his side, leading authorities on a seven-year pursuit.
As a former Emergency Medical Technician, working for the ambulance firm tasked with treating and transporting prison inmates, Zimmerman had direct access to a number of first-hand eyewitness accounts of the escape.
When he’s not working area ice rinks and sidelines writing sports for local newspapers, Zimmerman enjoys travel and spending time with his two grandchildren. He lives on the North Shore of Boston with his wife of forty years.

MONKEY MORALEShttps://www.amazon.com/Monkey-Morales-Assassin-Operative-Informant/dp/B0DV4MZSS7
Cuban exile turned CIA operative Ricardo “Monkey” Morales justifies his moniker by orchestrating decades of chaos in the world of international espionage.
The legend of Cuban exile turned US government operative Ricardo Morales Navarrete has been known in espionage circles for decades. Dubbed “The Monkey” for his disruptive and unpredictable escapades, Morales grabbed headlines for decades as tales of his bombings, arrests, assassination attempts (both those he executed and those he suffered), and testimony constructed a real-life spy adventure unlike anything brought to page or screen.
His story delves into diverse aspects of American history, including our nation’s conflict with Cuba, our anti-communism military support overseas, JFK’s story before and after the Bay of Pigs, and the explosion of the illegal narcotics industry in 1970s Miami. Morales was a contract agent for the CIA and a valuable asset for the FBI; he even shared how he’d met Lee Harvey Oswald at a CIA camp in Florida before JFK’s assassination. Morales’s counterintelligence skills-for-hire were also a prized utility for Cuban drug kingpins in Miami, many of whom were discarded ex-CIA operatives.
Monkey Morales blends James Bond, Rambo, and Scarface—a concoction of danger, politics, and family drama told in its entirety for the first time by authors Sean Oliver and Morales’s son, Ricardo Morales, Jr.About the AuthorSean has never carried out a contract bombing, but he is the author of eight books and a 2021 Writer’s Competition winner in the script category. He is an actor and voice artist with over a hundred major motion picture and TV credits. He currently teaches in New Jersey where he lives with his wife and two daughters.
Rick is the second of Ricardo Morales Navarrete’s four children. He has appeared on radio and podcasts for NPR, Actualidad Radio 1040 AM, Spyscape, The Opperman Report, and Rob Reiner and Soledad O’Brien’s Who Killed JFK. He is a father of two and lives in Michigan with his wife Cheri and cat Buddy.
