  2 Years of Crazy Ideas and Implementation, Trial and Error, and Misunderstandings Packed into One Book! 
  Take a journey with HR turned Entrepreneur through his first two years of entrepreneurship, from hiring his first project intern to adding 20+ over the next two years, from publishing a novel having a filmy title to building a SaaS application that reached pretty close to getting funding, from being invited to attend Digital India event inaugurated by Prime Minister of India to getting examined by a Clinical Physiatrist. 
  In a true ‘as long as we are still alive, there is another wave to ride’ fashion, Mayank did not miss the opportunity when COVID-19 turned the world upside down and forced him to take a path he had always desired but never planned. The book is written in a first-person narrative style that is both playfully self-deprecating and boastful and is full of anecdotes. 
  In ‘Brick by Brick…and one step at a time’, you will get insights about taking risks, building teams, creating products, choosing mentors, and prioritizing what truly matters in life - our family. 
  “If you picked up this book because you are curious to know the psyche of an entrepreneur and what all they go through during their initial years, you’re in the right place.” 
  “If you picked up this book because you are curious how an HR going through a midlife crisis decides to pivot, attempts tens of things simultaneously, and finds his Ikigai during the process, you’re again in the right place.”

  Groomed by a Gang

  Christina O’Connor is the main prosecution witness from the Huddersfield Grooming scandal. In 2017, 11 men were convicted of a staggering 43 offences against her, including 22 counts of rape. 
   
  In this memoir, Christina will describe how, from being a happy child with a loving family, she fell into the clutches of a grooming gang whose abuse of children earned them a total of 221 years in prison. Christina’s helpless parents tried desperately to save their 13 year old daughter as she began playing truant, and was lured into sexual activities with complete strangers, in exchange for pizza, vodka and cannabis. 
   
  After five years of almost daily rape, Christina committed robberies under duress from the grooming gang and was jailed. She made a complaint to police about the abuse, but no action was taken. 
   
  She sees the prison term as her salvation; from this moment she turned her life around. Two years after her release, her police statement was found at the back of a filing cabinet, and Operation Tendersea, the investigation into the grooming gang was launched. 
   
  This is the first time Christina has spoken out. She has waived her right to anonymity and wants the world to hear her voice

  Building an oasis of hope in a desert of despair 
  AT 37, Irene Gleeson was a broken woman. Her marriage had crumbled, her children were out of control, and she had spiralled into a deep depression.Her life changed when she walked into a small beachside church and encountered God.Ten years later, she was on a plane bound for northern Uganda to rescue war-affected children.Armed with nothing but faith, courage and dogged determination, Irene sold her beach home, said goodbye to family, and hauled her tiny caravan 13,000 kilometres to Kitgum, an isolated community besieged by Joseph Kony and his brutal rebel group, the LRA.Under the shade of a mango tree,"Mama Irene" gathered the children of war and taught them to sing, and read and write by scratching letters in the dust. And then, for the next twenty two years together with the locals, forged a ministry that would transform the lives of thousands of former child soldiers, a work now applauded by the rest of the world. Heart of a Lioness bursts with drama and glows with miracles, a tale that brings Africa's culture and characters to life, capturing the horrors of war, the heartache of poverty, and the healing power of God's love through one woman. This story will captivate your imagination, challenge your beliefs and demonstrate that, regardless of who you are, or where you've come from, with God, anything is possible.
