Book excerpt: From the Bestselling Author and Television Producer of MASTERS OF SEX, a True Story of Espionage and Mobsters, Based on the Never-Before-Released JFK Files, and Optioned by Warner Bros. Mafia Spies is the definitive account of America’s most remarkable espionage plots ever—with CIA agents, mob hitmen, “kompromat” sex, presidential indiscretion, and James Bond-like killing devices together in a top-secret mystery full of surprise twists and deadly intrigue. In the early 1960s, two top gangsters, Johnny Roselli and Sam Giancana, were hired by the CIA to kill Cuba’s Communist leader, Fidel Castro, only to wind up murdered themselves amidst Congressional hearings and a national debate about the JFK assassination. Mafia Spies revolves around the outlaw friendship of these two mob buddies and their fascinating world of CIA spies, fellow Mafioso in Chicago, Cuban exile commandos in Miami, beautiful Hollywood women, famous entertainers like Frank Sinatra’s Rat Pack in Las Vegas, Castro’s own spies in Havana and his double agents hidden in Florida, J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI snooping, and the Kennedy administration’s “Get Castro” obsession in Washington. Thomas Maier is among the first to take full advantage of the National Archives’ 2017–18 release of the long-suppressed JFK files, many of which deal with the CIA’s top secret anti-Castro operation in Florida and Cuba. With several new investigative findings, Mafia Spies is a spy exposé, murder mystery, and shocking true story that recounts America’s first foray into the assassination business, a tale with profound impact for today’s Trump era. Who killed Johnny and Sam—and why wasn’t Castro assassinated despite the CIA’s many clandestine efforts?

Download or read book Pearls of Wisdom written by Pastor Vera J. Ferguson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2005-10-21 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pearls of Wisdom The book Pearls of Wisdom came about because of the dream I had of starting a Bible Study in the little country church my husband Dennis and I pastor in Nebraska, Indiana. Each week I would come up with the pearl and ask the Holy Spirit what He wanted me to tell the people. I wanted something that they could reflect on for the entire week. My sole intention was to keep them uplifted and edified. I wanted to gently guide and direct them the way they should go. The book is to be a practical application to lifes battles and challenges. It was to encourage them and make them understand they were not alone but God was there all the way with them. And though they may have fallen into sin and temptation, if they repented then His love was unconditional. I wanted them to know they were not the only ones going through the challenges life brought about, but how they handled those difficulties made the world of difference. The book is a collection of what I shared with our Bible Study. Now instead of just sharing with a handful of people, I desire to touch the lives of all those who will receive them. Read and reread them and let them make a world of difference in your life. Open your spirit up to what the Holy Spirit has to say to you. God Bless You, Vera
