Download or read book Escape from Paradise written by T.O. Reynolds and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-10-26 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our world today is in serious trouble. Why? We should all know the main reason: a distinct lack of leadership. In the U.S. our federal government is an international joke. None of our government branches co-operate internally or externally. Just take a look at our Congressional politicians or our so-called security bureaus. The right hand has no idea what the left hand is doing about anything except on election-day or pay-day! Ten years ago, one individual decided enough was enough and he set out to either motivate or eliminate corrupt politicians, media moguls, leaders from the financial, medical, religious, scientific, corporations and law enforcement sectors. He wrote a book called ‘The Lists’ that tells the story of the ‘why, what, who, how and when’. ‘The Lists’ tells half of the story; the new book, ‘Escape from Paradise’, tells the rest of the story.

Book excerpt: Calgarron is the story of one mans life from boy to warrior to lover to husband and father. Set to the background of the Japanese invasion of the Malay Peninsula and the Second World War, his fast-paced novel moves through Asia, Australia, USA, and Europe. War brings injury, friendship, and love, but his family secrets shatter his life and grip on reality. Lavinia Calgarron looked down at her son fast asleep in his bed. The last hundred years war had ravished not only her own family but especially the Calgarron family. Lavinia had lost her husband during the First World War, and now deep into the Second World War, the only Calgarron left lay wounded in a bed in Darwin hospital. He was the captain of a destroyer and had returned in triumph from a rescue mission on Timor but in the process had broken his leg. Lewis Calgarron lay sleeping; he was thinking of Sophie, the woman he loved. They had met under such unusual circumstances thrown together by war. She had lost everything; he had lost estates, wealth, and status because of the war with Japan. He needed to build back that fortune, and he felt under self-applied pressure to produce an heir to carry the dynasty forward. He was determined to not only win the war but to win the peace. Lavinia out! he heard. He opened his eyes and saw his mother standing near the door. Lewis thought he was dead! He smelt her first, that unmistakably scent, her musk. He slowly turned his head and looked deep into Sophies eyes. She smiled at him and whispered, Lewis Calgarron, I love you. He smiled back at her and said, I love you too. Was that my mother?

These three linked ideas fuel much of what heterosexual women and men strive to work out their mutual agreements on what is an acceptable love relationship. Trust, patience, love, clear honest attempts help bridge the gaps. And because relationships are rarely simply things, women and men must try to create a harmonious meeting ground for the two participants in order for love to last. This book explores these topics.

Download or read book Sophie The Final Verdict written by Senan Molony and published by Hachette Books Ireland. This book was released on 2024-09-12 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'This is the book that puts all the evidence before the people' Jean-Pierre Gazeau, uncle of Sophie Toscan du Plantier 'Arriving in West Cork to cover the murder of Frenchwoman Sophie Toscan du Plantier, our man on the ground was local journalist Ian Bailey. His level of insight into the killing was extraordinary . . .' So began the journey of journalist Senan Molony, first national crime correspondent on the scene of Sophie's brutal murder in December 1996, in a saga that would shock the nation. The 2024 death of prime suspect Ian Bailey reopens the case for Molony, who goes behind the scenes to tell the full chilling story, as never before - from first seeing the Englishman as someone with impressive inside sources, to his moment of awakening at Bailey's arrest for a murder the suspect freely wrote about in the national press. The book charts the astonishing early days of a doomed investigation and times thereafter, as Bailey - a violent misogynist and pathological liar - escaped charge or trial in Ireland despite compelling evidence. Including interviews with Sophie's family, key garda investigators, local witnesses and Bailey himself, with shocking excerpts from his 'black diaries', it unpacks the truth and categorically dismantles Bailey's mainstay defence that he did not know Sophie. It also explodes commonly held myths - often seeded by the suspect himself - bringing to light astounding new information, along with fresh and disturbing proof of guilt. This is the book that lets all the evidence speak.

Download or read book Unstoppable written by Mark Hughes and published by Headline. This book was released on 2023-09-07 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SHORTLISTED IN THE INTERNATIONAL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR CATEGORY AT THE 2024 SPORTS BOOK AWARDS WATERSTONES' BEST BOOKS OF 2023: SPORT A definitive and intriguing biography of Max Verstappen, Formula 1's superstar, Lewis Hamilton's great rival and the three-time winner of the World Drivers' Championship. No Hollywood scriptwriter could possibly have envisioned the breathless, adrenaline-pumping climax to the 2021 Formula 1 season. On the very last lap of the final race of an unbelievably arduous and controversial season, Red Bull's Max Verstappen nervelessly overtook the seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton of Mercedes to clinch the first place that thrust the young prodigy to the narrowest of victories and to his first World Drivers' title. He followed up by taking the 2022 and 2023 titles as well. Verstappen may only be 26 years of age, but the Dutch motorsport sensation has an incredible record in F1. This young man has already left an indelible mark on the sport. The son of F1 driver Jos, Verstappen junior quickly stepped out of his father's shadow: his youthful charisma, ferocious speed, fearless driving style and refusal to back down mark him out as a true champion. And the phenomenal success of Netflix's Drive to Survive documentary series has elevated his worldwide popularity still further. Widely respected motorsport writer and F1 insider Mark Hughes is perfectly placed to write the most authoritative narrative on Verstappen's incredible rise through the ranks to F1 glory. Hughes' immaculate credentials and first-rate access enable him to generate fresh and fascinating insights, and to paint a fully-rounded and richly-textured portrait of one of the most exciting young sportsmen on the planet.
