»Er war der ikonenhafte Man in Black mit Ecken und Kanten: für einige ein John Wayne mit Gitarre, für andere ein Wanderprediger mit Bibel und Colt. Jenseits aller Klischees bleibt: die unverwechselbare Stimme und die Songs.« Was für ein Leben! Mitte der 1950er Jahre startet Cash als junger Countrymusiker beim Label Sun Records – neben Elvis Presley. Nach seinem Tod 2003 geht das Video »Hurt« viral. Dazwischen liegen musikalische Welterfolge, Katastrophen und Comebacks, wie etwa die epochemachenden Aufnahmen 1968 im Hochsicherheits-Gefängnis »Live at Folsom« oder die späten »American Recordings«. Offen und empathisch zeichnet Holger Hanowell die Höhen und Tiefen des Lebens dieses Ausnahmekünstlers nach, von dem kein geringerer als Tom Waits behauptet: »Wenn Cash im Radio singt, wechselt niemand den Sender.«

Now it seemed she was a helpless pawn in a power play between two brothers. Fortunately for Willow, neither Ibrahim nor Dariq realized that a clever woman is never without resources. No matter how much he tempted her, she would teach her captor a thing or two before she gave her heart to…The Pirate Prince.
