Three powerful men converge on the banks of the Red Cedar River in the early 1900s in southern Minnesota—George Albert Hormel, founder of what will become the $10 billion food conglomerate Hormel Foods; Alpha LaRue Eberhart, the author's paternal grandfather and Hormel's executive vice president and corporate secretary; and Ransome Josiah Thomson, Hormel's comptroller. Over ten years, Thomson will embezzle $1.2 million from the company's coffers, nearly bringing the company to its knees. The Butcher, The Embezzler, and The Fall Guy opens in 1922 as George Hormel calls Eberhart into his office and demands his resignation. Hailed as the true leader of the company he'd helped Hormel build—is Eberhart complicit in the embezzlement? Far worse than losing his job and the great wealth he'd rightfully accumulated is that his beloved young wife, Lena, is dying while their three children grieve alongside. Of course, his story doesn't end there. In scale both intimate and grand, Cherington deftly weaves the histories of Hormel, Eberhart, and Thomson within the sweeping landscape of our country's early industries, along with keen observations about business leaders gleaned from her thirty-five-year career advising top company executives.Zum Buch

Have you ever thought that just one text yes, just one text could change everything forever? One moment you’re in love, safe in promises, certain of forever. The next, a single message can unravel it all your faith, your trust, your heart. That’s where Joseph Kaburu’s story begins. A love once sacred, built on prayer and dreams. A betrayal that slipped in quietly, tearing it all apart. But Just One Text is not just about heartbreak it’s about what happens after. The darkness of nights filled with unanswered questions. The weight of forgiveness that feels impossible. The faith tested when love fails. This memoir is raw, true, and unforgettable. It will take you into the tenderness of love, the sting of betrayal, and the long, aching journey toward healing. Yet it is not a story of bitterness. It is not a book of shame. It is a testimony of rising again of scars that become strength, and wounds that begin to shine as wisdom. And here’s the truth: this is not only Joseph’s story. It’s yours too if you have ever loved and lost, trusted and been broken, wondered whether peace could ever return… or if you are already in love, or planning to love. Just One Text will lure you with the beauty of love, break you with its betrayal, and lift you with its redemption. It will pull you in until you feel every tear, every prayer, every heartbeat. Dare to open these pages. Dare to feel what you’ve buried. Dare to discover that even after love fails, life and healing are waiting, and still can love again. Because once you begin, you won’t be able to stop until the last word.Zum Buch
