She started dancing in a strip club when she was just 16 so that she could pay her way through culinary school and to move her little sister, mother and herself into a better life style. She went on to become a very successful caterer in Mystic Pond - in fact she made her first million dollars by the time she was thirty years old, and married a rock star type D.J. She was found murdered last year the day before Thanksgiving. The book is written through the eyes of the detective, Mary Bartlett who was not only her friend, but also the one who found her. The murder is solved using the usual fingerprints, DNA and such, but also from reading a few volumes of Cami's thirty years of diaries - and well, evidence. Oh, and we can't forget the little "thing" that is starting to brew between the detective and the F.B.I. guy? Well, let's just say, "stay tuned."

Download or read book The Secret Temple written by Peter Levenda and published by Nicolas-Hays, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-08-15 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a unique history of Masonry written from the perspective of an educated outsider. The author is sympathetic to Masonic goals, a historian of secret societies and political conspiracies, and an exhaustive researcher. He looks back to the earliest roots of the Craft, and then traces its influence into modern times. From the Bible’s Temple of Solomon through the Knights Templars, to the Rosicrucians and Illuminati, we learn of Masonry’s roots and early history. Enlightenment philosophy and the revolutionary currents of eighteenth-century Europe opened an opportunity for the American experiment. Sacred geometry and architecture combined to create Washington, DC, and the rest, as they say, is history. This second revised and enlarged edition includes a new chapter on Freemasonry in South America—from the revolution of Simón Bolívar to the capture and execution of Che Guevara.

Download or read book The Mystical Gaze of the Cinema written by Richard Leonard and published by Academic Monographs. This book was released on 2009-02-15 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Magical', 'out of this world', 'an experience you'll never forget': Peter Weir's films have enthralled audiences around the globe. Whether in iconic Australian works such as Picnic at Hanging Rock and Gallipoli or international mainstream thrillers such as Witness, Weir has deliberately created mystical movie experiences. Modern cinema studies is used to dissecting films on the basis of gender, class or race: now, for the first time, Richard Leonard shows that a mystical gaze also exists and is exercised in the secular multiplex temples of today. The Mystical Gaze of the Cinema is a meticulous and accessible book that uses a psychoanalytic approach incorporating the insights of Jung, film theory and theology to break new ground in what continues to be a hot topic in cinema studies: the spectator/screen relationship. Leonard provides a fresh and innovative perspective on what happens when we behold a film.
