Loiacono Literary Agency welcomes Caroline Giammanco and Bank Notes: The True Story of the Boonie Hat Bandit!

Caroline

In this true story, the St. Louis area is gripped by a spree of twelve bank robberies that leave local and federal authorities baffled. Dubbed the Boonie Hat Bandit, this criminal methodically robs banks in broad daylight leaving everyone to wonder, Who is this man?  Law enforcement is scrambling, and the robberies make national news.

In September 2008, the suspect is apprehended and the world finds out his shocking identity: Donald Keith Giammanco, a quiet, middle-class, single father of twin daughters. The big mystery remains: How and why would he enter a life of crime? In spite of requests to tell his story, Keith Giammanco refuses to give insights into his motivations for years, until now.

Keith

Written by the woman he falls in love with while in prison, Bank Notes delves into the thoughts and motivations of a notorious bank robber who is anything but the typical criminal.

Caroline Giammanco grew up on a farm in the Ozarks of Missouri.  After graduating from high school, she moved to Tucson, Arizona where she attended the University of Arizona.  Her Bachelor’s degree is in Political Science with an English minor.  Caroline has taught public school for over twenty years in New Mexico, Arizona, and Missouri.  She is currently the English department chair of a southern Missouri high school.  Caroline is the mother of two sons, Rick and Kevin, both military veterans. www.booniehatbandit.com  Boonie Hat Bandit media

Tova Gitterman – Please Say Kaddish For Me by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields

“Finally Havah raised her head to glare at the other woman. Under different circumstances she would have pitied her. At thirty-one, Tova looked closer to fifty. Years of abuse had worn lines into her face. Childbearing had left its mark on her slight frame, curving her spine and bowing her shoulders.”

~~taken from Please Say Kaddish for Me by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields

Framed Tova

At the age of fourteen, Arel’s sister Tova Gitterman, Yussel’s second eldest child, was a dark haired, grey eyed beauty. Feivel Resnick, then seventeen, fancied himself in love with her and begged the rabbi for her hand. However Yussel informed him that she was already promised. Not to be refused, Feivel stalked her until the day he cornered her doing laundry at the river.

When Tova was found to be pregnant with Feivel’s child it rendered her betrothal agreement null and void. Rabbi Yussel felt he had no choice but to sanction the marriage for honor’s sake.

Instead of the fulfillment of his dreams, Feivel feels trapped. He is an abusive drunkard who squanders his meager earnings on drink and takes out his frustrations on Tova. As Please Say Kaddish for Me opens, Tova is pregnant with their fifth child.

After the baby’s birth, Tova signs an agreement for her eldest to marry the shoemaker who is twice the girl’s age. Havah is indignant and accuses Tova of selling her daughter into slavery for a pair of shoes.

As time passes, Havah learns that life isn’t always a simple matter of right and wrong. While she may never agree with Tova’s decision she does come to respect the woman’s inner strength.

That Kiss May Be Lying To You

We have all been there: you go on a date with a special new someone, and after some potentially awkward moments, you lean in and go for the kiss.  How was it?  Did his/her kiss set your synapses ablaze with thoughts of romance and/or an immediate desire for nudity in close proximity to that special person?  Despite all the knowledge you’ve accumulated telling you that true love requires time, did you find your inner voice saying “this is the one!”

If so, I may have some bad news for you.  That kiss may be lying to you.

So what is behind this shocking deception?  It isn’t your date’s “game.” (Sidebar: if your date has a noticeable “game”, they aren’t a terribly good long term prospect anyway.)  It’s your MHC.

Itzak Abromovich Please Say Kaddish for Me by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields

Itzak Abromovich Please Say Kaddish for Me by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields

Framed Itzak

“Itzak reminded her [Havah] of a bear cub, short and stout with black, curly hair. His beard seemed to be as unruly as the young man himself. His dark eyes shimmered like midnight stars.”

~~taken from Please Say Kaddish for Me by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields

Itzak Abromovich is a cabinetmaker by trade who is also a gifted woodcarver. Because his uniquely crafted furniture is sought after by certain Kishinev aristocrats Itzak has been issued official papers granting him permission to travel beyond the boundaries of the Svechka.

He’s not only a skilled craftsman but a talented fiddler as well, which endears him to Ulrich Dietrich, the pianist. Often furniture deliveries will end with an evening of music in the wealthy German professor’s mansion.

At first meeting, Havah points out that Itzak is the embodiment of his name, pronounced in Hebrew ‘yitz-khak’ which literally translates, ‘he will laugh.’ In nearly any given situation, no matter how bleak, he can find a kernel of humor.
