By Hy Brett
Churchgoer and family man George Mancuso doesn't want to be a killer. But he's unemployed, despondent, and desperate. When his boyhood friend, now Mafia capo, Big Nick Lombardi, offers to take him on as a hitman, George realizes that it's the best deal he can get. All George has to do is pick up the gun and prove to himself that he has the guts for the job. Though the cold steel of the gun gives George a strength and confidence he never had, he's still not sure he can use it. Until he spots Jack Warren, the lying, deceitful boss who ruined his life. Fate has obviously handed George his first victim...
Spend the day with George Mancuso. It may change your life as well as his!

Social Security and Medicare were once lauded as prime examples of America's great compassion and our superiority to other nations. Now the programs are being condemned by the privileged and the greedy as costly entitlements that are leading the country to ruin. Hy Brett's SECRET REPORT is a spoof on how the public, including seniors, might be manipulated to approve of novel legislation that promises to resolve the so-called crisis. Whether a spoof or, maybe, a forecast of things to come, it's a rollicking send-up of powerbrokers and the media, think tanks and politicians!
"[Hy Brett,] you are indeed a fine satirical writer." —Joyce Appleby, Professor Emerita of History, UCLA; Past-president of The Organization of American Historians and The American Historical Association. Author of Shores of Knowledge
