„The heart of a man is full of hypocrisy; the heart of Nature is utterly without guile”. Harold Preston discovers this when he goes prospecting for gold in the uncharted bush with a rival he considered a friend. This is a fairly decent tale of jealousy, betrayal and vengeance written by a prolific British journalist and author of mystery and horror fiction James Edward Preston Muddock also known as „Dick Donovan” (28 May 1843 – 23 January 1934).

    SOMETHING WANTS TO RUIN EVERY FAMILY THAT LIVES HERE...
    
     
    A murder that stole 1982 national headlines: "Renowned Family Slayed in Home"
    A case that remained cold for forty long years.
     
    The Eyler family was anything but average. The father a top literary agent and the mother a duchess, they thrived in their prestigious mansion surrounded by luxury…and secrets. Secrets that would eventually cost them their lives. 
     
    On a cold autumn night, their legacy ended with a grisly massacre in one of the most horrific scenes ever investigated. Soon details splashed across every newspaper of how the family of five lay slaughtered in their library, cursing the mansion as it became branded the Execution Estate. With no witnesses and no motives, the killer remained free. The case grew colder. Speculations grew darker. Answers grew dimmer.
     
    Until now.
     
    Former estate manager, Derl Newman, steps forward four decades later with a suspicion and a wild clue that could lead investigators to finally solve the puzzle of why a killer would murder a family yet leave the many priceless heirlooms behind. The gardener with a grudge? The bitter butler? The maid hiding her mischief? With insider knowledge of what happened that fateful night, Derl meets with renowned documentarian Keisha Fenty to expose everyone's darkest secrets that brought this house...and everyone who entered it...to ruin.
     
    A whodunnit short story perfect for fans of Clue-like locked-room mysteries.
     
    "If Agatha Christie and Sherlock Holmes had a baby, they'd birth it in A House of Ruin!" – reader review ★★★★★

    Lana thought she'd married the man of her dreams, but dreams fade, and reality bites. Her marriage to Henry has rotted from the inside out, poisoned by years of resentment, lies, and the dark secret that ties them together-a secret too dangerous to let either of them walk away. When Lana meets Callum, her world is flipped upside down. Callum is everything Henry is not: kind, attentive, and a glimpse of the life she could have had. He offers her hope, a future free from the suffocating grip of her husband. But leaving Henry won't be simple. He knows too much, and he's not about to let Lana go without a fight.

    What would you do if you inherited enough money to do anything you desired?  You could buy cars, houses, commercial buildings, businesses, land, golf courses, jets, jewelry (the good stuff), have stadiums named for you, and live a good life.  Travel to all parts of the world without care, no worries, and just be.  You do what you like, work out, play golf or tennis without hurry or rush to get to work or meetings.  Hire the best trainers, chefs, and medical staff to make your body the envy of anyone seeing you on the beach or in the club.  
    Would it be a good life if you used it all on yourself and your immediate family?  The power of money and what it can buy might overwhelm you.  How could you ensure your heirs would use the money to help others? 
    If you are reading this book, you know how to help others.  I hope you continue to uplift your friends, family, co-workers, and unknown helpless individuals, but there are temptations in life. 
    Which side do you choose?  The side wanting to look good, or the side doing good? 
    You can buy friendship, but do you want relationships based on money? 
    Do you have friends?  If you had friends before your inheritance, do they badger you into giving them small pieces of the big pie once they found out (but you can lose the Trust if you tell)?  Would they still be your friends?  What if you gifted everyone you know, ten million dollars?  Would everyone be satisfied and help others?  Would it please you? 
    As a trillionaire, what are you doing?  Are you for good, evil, or what you think is safe between the two? 
    The Davis Trust is your irrevocable trust with money and resources to change the world.  Resources far surpassing a flaunting influence, power, sex, and money lifestyle. 
    Significance is a glimpse at what your father or grandfather intended the Davis Trust to create.  The journey never stops fighting for good, investing in people, and fighting evil.

    This recording has been digitally produced by DeepZen Limited, using a synthesized version of an audiobook narrator’s voice under license. DeepZen uses Emotive Speech Technology to create digital narrations that offer a similar listening experience to human narration. Dylan First, brilliant psychologist turned FBI agent, cannot shake off the tragic discovery of her past—that her mentor and father figure, a brilliant psychiatrist and professor, was secretly a serial killer—especially now that he has escaped. And yet if she is to catch a new killer—one who leaves his victims mysteriously staged in chairs with a bundle of yarn—then it is precisely her mentor that Dylan must find for his brilliant psychological insight. Finding him, though, may just be the last thing Dylan wants.

    The mother of a FDNY firefighter killed on 9/11 teams up with a crusading journalist to fight City Hall and uncover the truth about why over 300 firefighters perished during the World Trade Center attack. 
     
    Don’t Look Back is a thriller that takes readers into the hearts and minds of a FDNY family who lost their son during 9/11, and set out on a mission to find out what really happened to him and the other 342 firefighters who perished needlessly.  
     
    Sarah Murphy, a savvy community organizer from the Bronx, teams up with a local investigative reporter and other 9/11 families as they take on City Hall to unearth the failures at the FDNY. In this fast-paced novel by former Daily  
     
    News investigative reporter Joe Calderone, the families risk everything to expose a corruption scandal that put faulty radios in the hands of the FDNY, leading to the worst loss of life in the history of the department. This compelling story, based on  
    true events, takes a different perspective on a worldwide event and gives voice to the 343 members of the FDNY who perished, largely unaware that the buildings were about to come down upon them.
