Only the Board, the top-level members of the Museum, can order the termination of field agents, and the women realize they’ve been marked for death. Now to get out alive they have to turn against their own organization, relying on experience and each other to get the job done, knowing that working together is the secret to their survival. They’re about to teach the Board what it really means to be a woman—and a killer—of a certain age.

Download or read book Unbelievable A Memoir by Henry Goldring 2018 Edition written by Henry Goldring and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-10 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “UNBELIEVABLE” was first published in 2010. It was the second in what is now a trilogy of memoirs; first being a one-person autobiographical musical titled, “AND NOW, FOR MY NEXT LIFE” which was presented in Los Angeles at The Zephyr Theatre in 1992. The second is this book. And now a third offering; a new 5-character musical titled “UNBELIEVABLE, but true” which is (at this printing) in the beginning stages of production. The most difficult part of writing my life story in any form is acknowledging there is no logical ending because my journey is ongoing. But what has ended is my search for resolution or “closure.” Closing a book and slamming a door doesn’t make the hurt go away. It forces you to write a new chapter or enter a new room. It is called evolving. One specific benchmark of my evolution was changing my name from “Steven Henry Goldring” to “Henry Goldring.” I never liked “Steven” with its sibilant “s” Sissy-Steve connotation. And because my grandfather (and namesake) Henry Perilstein was truly the one person in my world who showed me unconditional love, deleting the source of childhood bullying and honoring my grandfather was a tangible path forward. And finally accepting the deep-seated truth of who I am has set me free. As you read this 2nd Edition of the 2nd Installment, please remember… JUST BECAUSE I’M DIFFERENT FROM YOU, DOESN’T MEAN I’M NOT NORMAL TOO. I MUST REALIZE, THERE’S NO TRUTH IN DISGUISE. I MUST BE TRUE TO MY HEART, MY FRAGILE… BROKEN… PERFECT… HEART.
