PALM BEACH'S #1 BESTSELLER SINCE PUBLICATION. For two decades Palm Beach socialite and film producer George Williams exchanged his tuxedo for a flight suit and surreptitiously flew millions of dollars of marijuana, cocaine and cash between Colombia, the Bahamas and Florida, evading U.S. Customs, DEA, the FBI, federal task forces and the local police. A fixture at balls, charity events and social gatherings, Williams became a top cocaine supplier for the tuxedo and tiara set on the island, having survived a crash landing in the Bahamas. An expert blackjack player, he appeared on Regis and other shows, filming commercials for American Express, Miller Lite and others. Never caught, his true identity never revealed, this is the amazing memoir of the man who shuttled between the Colombian drug lords of Medellin, the remote jungle airstrips of Honduras, the casinos of Las Vegas and the ballrooms and glitter of Palm Beach. With acerbic wit, he names names and pulls back the curtain on a segment of society rarely seen outside the drawing rooms and clubs of Palm Beach.

A fascinating, detailed account of how John Daniels, a young college graduate and expert marksman, is recruited for Operation Mongoose against Fidel Castro in 1963 and is eventually turned to play the key role in the assassination of President John Kennedy. Years later, a tragically remorseful Daniels sees history repeating itself when Bobby Kennedy enters the 1968 Presidential race, and realizes he must act to stop the same forces from reforming again to stop RFK. The eerie similarities between the two assassinations are pieces of a monstrous jigsaw puzzle that Daniels desperately tries to fit together and construct the fatal picture they portray as the novel races to a thrilling conclusion in Los Angeles. Perhaps as telling as the detailed information and photographs furnished, as provoking as the scrutiny of assassination experts, the journal is an understated, poignant account, a haunting memoir as spellbinding as Day of the Jackal.

A Las Vegas homicide detective investigating a series of bizarre accidents discovers the victims had all been ejected from a prominent casino for card counting. His probe into the owner's shadowy past leads across the continent to a church whose terrifying history dates back to the 1500's. When the minister and church elders travel to Las Vegas for a religious conference, events quickly spiral down into mayhem and madness.

The year is 1957, and the nation is about to be stunned by the launch of the Soviet satellite, Sputnik. The U.S. must play catch-up or be left behind in the most significant race in human history. So too with the McTavish family owned bowling alley. Its dilapidated structure and pin boys are soon to be outdated by slick new establishments with automatic pin setting machines and bright modern surroundings. The story is told through the eyes of fourteen year old Danny McTavish, a young man in the shadow of his talented older brother, who has his own growing up to do. This coming-of-age tale is filled with poignant humor, pathos and a sweet sadness that will touch the reader.

This remarkable journal is a detailed account of the author's role in the assassination of President John Kennedy. In 1963, John D____ was a senior varsity baseball player at an eastern university. An accomplished marksman, John was also fluent in Spanish. In the spring, he was contacted by an individual identifying himself as Edward Smith, who claimed to work for an intelligence branch of the United States government and had, it seemed, supporting credentials. An effective talker with a commanding presence, Smith recruited the young man on a mission ostensibly aimed at eliminating Fidel Castro. He offered the author $60,000 for a few months work after graduation and appealed to his sense of patriotism, highlighting the threat presented by the Cuban Communist regime. With no job offers and a sense of adventure, John eventually signed on and was trained at a desert facility using Soviet sniper rifles, presumably for insertion into Cuba. An effective cover story was provided so that his family and friends had no inkling of the young man's real activity. In early fall, Smith met with the author and attempted to change targets to President John Kennedy. Smith was well prepared with documentation and material to convince his recruit that Kennedy was leading the country on a course of nuclear destruction. He had details on the failed Bay of Pigs invasion, the nuclear missiles under Cuban control aimed at the landing beaches, the deceptive and incomplete missile withdrawal from Cuba, faulty Jupiter ICBMs, and other matters. The remuneration was upped to $150,000. Perhaps in a manner similar to Pattie Hearst or even the Manson family, Smith was eventually successful in turning his charge. The young man, alone with no other resources or compatriots, became convinced the entire U.S. intelligence community was behind his efforts. The author and Smith traveled to Dallas in early November, linking up with Lee Harvey Oswald, also recruited by Smith. The journal has now been reviewed in detail by Sixty Minutes, a number of Kennedy assassination experts, from a noted "dream team" attorney to forensic pathologists, autopsy experts and others who appeared before the Warren Commission. No flaw has been found in the work, which presents, in the view of most experts, a more acceptable version of the actual assassination than the Warren Commission. There is an appendix of exhibits supporting the manuscript, including an airplane ticket, Soviet weapon with serial number, passport identification, license tags and other material. Perhaps as telling as the detailed information and photographs furnished, as provoking as the scrutiny of assassination experts, the journal is an understated, poignant account, a haunting memoir by an anonymous author with no wish to surface. It is as spellbinding as Day of the Jackal.

Does God exist? If so, what's He like? Is He still here? Does He care about us? What does religion have to do with God? Author George Williams examines these and other pertinent questions in clear, relatable language to reach the most reasonable points of view. These questions and others we've all wondered about are discussed from the points of view of cosmogony, cosmology, religion, science and deductive reasoning. Are there any more important questions? Forty six million Americans identify themselves as noncommittal on the subject of religion, and all of us have wondered about these matters from time to time. The Quest for God is impeccably researched and annotated. This unbiased work might just change your life.

Seventeen year old high school graduate George Williams wryly tells of his senior year as a member of the Class of 1959, in the insular, upscale town of Windham, New Jersey. In the shadow of an oppressively conformist society, where gray flannel executives commute to New York City jobs George and his friends cannot fathom, the boys struggle to find meaning in their moneyed, languid existence while drifting from moment to moment, as their parents shuttle from city to country club. Girls, cars, rock and roll: all baubles in an era soon to end with the decade. Against the backdrop of the social values of his time, George initially takes for granted the racially segregated and prejudicial attitudes of his community. Cynicism and humor combat the umbra of the Soviet nuclear presence, the teenagers' only weapon against the constant threat of destruction. On the surface, all drifts along in almost a stream of consciousness fashion; yet, stress cracks begin to appear as suicide and scandal break the smooth facade of the suburbs, and the future appears almost beyond resolution. George gradually questions the morality of his hometown, and struggles to find meaning and purpose in what seems a suffocating preordained destiny, culminating into a shadowy glimpse of true evil. The rock and roll lyrics of various 50's hit songs, quoted as introductory lines to each chapter, are surprisingly appropriate to the era and, together, form the anthem of the times.
