This is the story of a 72-year old New Zealander Ken Edwards who is told by his Cancer Specialist that he has only two months to live. He sets off on a 59 day around the world trip financed by hacking ATM/Cash Machines. He seeks only peace in his last days, lots of sex with as many women as possible and reconciliation with his two Canadian daughters. Instead as soon as he leaves NZ to Vancouver four dead bodies turn up including that of John Key the former NZ Prime Minister. Key is found shot in the head late at in a Women's Hair Dressing salon in Auckland where he was caressing the off cuts of Women's hair - part of his notorious sexual hair pulling fetish. As Ken continues us his journey more bodies are found in Toronto, Halifax Nova Scotia, Washington DC, Iceland, Syria, Manila and North Korea. The victims include USA President Donald Trump; a lady CIA hit Lady; a Montreal Mobster and his boss and the Presidents of Syria, the Philippians and North Korea.

Who is this person and who is paying her for the hits? Are Ken and the Hit Lady related?

All these questions are answered in the non fiction work written in the "Post truth, alternative facts and false news era".

"The Chicken Ranch was the one, great festering, frustrating sore on the face of law enforcement in Texas."The year was 1973. The State of Texas had just elected a new reform-minded governor and attorney general. And Houston's ABC-TV affiliate station at Channel 13 had just launched a new consumer-oriented investigative feature by hiring flamboyant former lawman Marvin Zindler to seize the spotlight. The roads from those disparate events crossed quickly in dramatic fashion to national acclaim in the Texas Hill Country village of La Grange, which had harbored the country's longest continually operating bordello-a little place known as the Chicken Ranch and beloved to generations of Texas school boys. When Zindler's sensational TV expose forced the Chicken Ranch to close, it triggered a national controversy that raged for years, highlighted by the creation of a successful Broadway musical called The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. The movie version starred Burt Reynolds and Dolly Parton in the fictionalized account that boiled the story down to a basic theme still used in its marketing pitch: "Texas madam Miss Mona and her sheriff boyfriend try to save her chicken ranch from a TV muckraker."But lost amid the romanticized singing and the dancing and the nostalgic pining of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas lies an authentic true crime history yarn just as entertaining and as much a part of the Lone Star State's many fabled legends. In I, the People, veteran Houston journalist and author Gary Taylor recreates the real story behind the closing of the Chicken Ranch and explains the forces that unleashed TV icon Marvin Zindler upon the national scene.ReviewsMidwest Book Review: The famed film 'Best Little Whorehouse in Texas' had its roots in reality, but its charm wears thin when it has connections to organized crime. "I, the People: How Marvin Zindler Busted the Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" is Gary Taylor's coverage of the story that tells of fellow journalist Marvin Zindler's personal crusade against the famous brothel the Chicken Ranch and the puppet strings of the Mafia behind it. For those who want the true story behind the story, "I, the People" is well worth considering.POD People: You may have heard of the "Chicken Ranch," AKA "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas," from the musical or the movie of the later name. Well, Gary Taylor, intrepid Texan journalist, has the real story. Taylor has a wonderful eye for character, and the Chicken Ranch story is full of them. This book is a fascinating look at characters from an era when Texas transitioned itself from the Wild West to civilization. I highly recommend I The People.

There have been numerous books on genocide in the last twenty years, but To Kill a People offers a different approach. It is one of the few books on genocide expressly written for use in the college classroom. The book includes four case studies--the Armenian, Nazi, Cambodian, and Rwandan genocides--and substantive introductory and concluding chapters that contribute to two key debates within genocide studies: how to define "genocide" and place it in relation to other mass atrocities, and how to detect and analyze the social, historical, and cultural forces that produce genocidal violence. To Kill a People examines a vast range of the latest research, offers original interpretations and arguments, and draws upon the author's own archival research on three continents. The case studies are supplemented by primary readings and thought-provoking questions, and the book concludes with a chapter that synthesizes the lessons and issues that arise from the study of genocide. A chapter-length bibliographic essay further distinguishes this book and will be useful to students and experts alike.
Il Conservatore del Museo Egizio di Torino viene trovato morto in un sarcofago, bendato come una mummia, le sue viscere messe in un vaso canopo, come nell'antico rituale. Il professor Luigi Verona è un egittologo di fama mondiale, amato dai suoi studenti, sposato a Renata De Marinis, una bella e ricca donna dell'alta borghesia torinese. L'ingrato compito di sbrogliare la matassa tocca al commissario Giulio Sannazzaro. L'indagine non è soltanto difficile, ma è anche pericolosa: il misterioso assassino è ovunque, è armato e bene addestrato, colpisce e svanisce nel nulla, sembra possedere mille volti.La vicenda si svolge prevalentemente a Torino ed in Piemonte, ma non soltanto. E' un romanzo d'azione, i protagonisti si muovono su un arco temporale di cinquant'anni in luoghi diversi, dall'Africa a Roma a Francoforte. E' un romanzo storico, la Resistenza, la guerra, l'olocausto ed il suo ricordo, ne costituiscono l'ossatura narrativa, intercalata da citazioni tratte dal libro delle piramidi, uno dei primi testi religiosi della storia dell'umanità, scritto sui muri della piramide di Unas quattro millenni fa.
When Mark Wahlberg shot to stardom in 1991, his buddy Donny Carroll was right there along the way. They grew up in Dorchester, a tough inner city neighborhood in Boston, where friendships were tight. Donny worked as Mark's personal assistant since the beginning of Mark's Hollywood career. Being part of Mark's real life entourage is what inspired Donny's original idea "to do a show about the entourage." "If Mark's fans only knew some of the things they did!"This story is about how Mark Wahlberg betrayed his 'so-called' best friend Donny Carroll. This is my attempt to set the record straight so that people will know the real story behind the "Entourage."Donny, aka "Donkey" was the inspiration for Entourage's 'Turtle' character, yet he never received any credit or the recognition he deserved for his creative role in the hit series. Hollywood is not all glitz and glamour. There is a dark side that one can only learn about firsthand.

Seated amongst a little group of the superior officers, with a heavy frown on his stern face, sat the general. Before him, at a little distance, with a soldier on either side, stood a tall, slight young man, in the uniform of an officer, but swordless. His smooth face, as yet beardless, was dyed with a deep flush, which might well be there, whether it proceeded from shame or indignation. For he was under arrest, and charged with a crime which, in a soldier, is heinous indeed-it was cowardice.

Hunting the Hunter (The Delphi Double Murder Case) By Harvey Carroll, Jr. I'm a former U.S. Army Military Policeman/Investigator, whom has seen shocking drug related deaths, and investigators bloody shot-out brains laying on their car seats... I now hold Bachelors of Business Administration Degree specializing in Real Estate and Finance, and three partial Masters in Business, Public Administration as well as Diplomacy and International Commerce... I've been considered the most influential international political figure in Kentucky-US, and some would say that perhaps in the World at one time. I have dealt with Governors, Senators, Presidents and Foreign Heads of State; and in the process I have saved millions of lives, and affected the economic fate of nations... Yet, I have made mistakes, and even cost lives, and often ponder if the "End Justified the Means" and has led to a bit of PTSD... I learned to eat stress for breakfast, but Cancer slowed me down considerably... I was advised to avoid stress by my Doctors/Surgeons; but instead I immersed myself into thousands and thousands of hours of extremely obsessive and intense investigative research... Obsessive to the point that matches the sadistic killer's in-order to try and stop his future thirst for children's blood... Sadly, getting into the minds of Killers is nothing new for me. Granted serial killers kill a few; while, Dictators and bad leaders kill multitudes... Getting into their minds is very dark... Especially, when you can anticipate what someone like Saddam Hussein will say months before he says it... That's exactly what I did when I tried to prevent the 1st Gulf War, but led to me helping plan and organize the 100 hour war instead (4 days, 4 hours) no dilly dallying around in the desert for a decade and a half squandering trillions... I might have also found the OBL Currier network, but someone else is spending the 10 million reward, it sure isn't me... I've spent much of my life getting into the sadistic sick minds, and dealing with the "Dumbassity of Dictators" (Noriega, Saddam, various War Lords, Gadhafi, alAssad, OBL and other Terrorist, and now a possible Serial Killer). Helping to take down Evil Dictators, has somewhat become my trademark over the years, and I hope that it is just as rewarding as a criminal prosecutor taking a sadistic killer off the streets. In many ways Dictators have many of the same characteristics; however, murderers work in the shadows far better, while Dictators openly display their sadistic abuse from their strong arm rule...

From the 1912 Hillsville Shootout to the 2007 Virginia Tech Massacre, Perry writes about these stories that have interested him over a long career of writing about the history of the place he calls home. Subjects covered include the 1929 Lawson family Christmas murders in Stokes County to the shootout on Fayette Street in Martinsville, Virginia, along with the case of the Martinsville Seven. Multiple bombing stories from Mount Airy, North Carolina, before it was Andy Griffith's mythical Mayberry to the title of "Little Chicago." Several murder true stories from Perry's native Patrick County are included.
Millionaire Sanford Embury is found dead in bed, alone, with the door of his second story bedroom bolted shut from the inside. He was known to be a controlling husband, refusing to give his pretty young wife an allowance of cash or her own checking account. "Eunice Embury was neither mean nor spiteful of disposition. She had a furious temper, but she tried hard to control it, and when it did break loose, the spasm was but of short duration and she was sorry for it afterward. Her husband declared he had tamed her, and that since her marriage, about two years ago, his wise, calm influence had curbed her tendency to fly into a rage and had made her far more equable and placid of disposition." Was his wife a party to the murder, or perhaps did she commit the murder in a fit of rage? Who else had a motive? And how does a clue of raspberry jam point to the killer?
It's October 2004 and Tony Blair has committed the British tax payer to funding an illegal war in Iraq. Needing every penny he can lay his hands on, Blair is horrified when one of the world's largest companies issues the government with an ultimatum: Put a stop to the bad press caused by a small group of protestors or lose an investment worth millions. On hearing his orders, Inspector Crowe's eyes light up. With core values at odds with the protestors', he knows just what to do to ensure none of them will ever be able to hold their heads high again. Thwarted by the law and under mounting pressure, Crowe's web of lies becomes increasingly elaborate. Bobby: The Crooked Hand of the Law is a fictitious account of true events and a tale of how those in power will stop at nothing to protect the established order. If you've ever stopped to question who it is that politicians and the police serve, then this book will provide a thought-provoking eye opener. You'll never be fooled by the illusion of democracy again.
