    Do you dream of having strong privacy online and in your everyday life? 
    This book will show you how. 
    The Successful Privacy Mindset is for anyone that has ever felt watched, ever felt that their privacy has been compromised or for anyone that has ever felt less than safe and secure. You deserve to feel safe at all times! 
    If you are a survivor of an assault, rape, mugging, stalker, identity theft, home invasion or any other ugliness - there will be ideas in this book that will make you feel safe. One of the most troubling things about crime is that the victim can feel the scars for years and years afterwards. My goal for readers of this book is to help switch you out of the victim mindset and into the survivor mindset. Take back your life. I know you can. You deserve to feel safe at all times! 
    After dealing with a stalker who tormented me for several years I finally decided enough was enough! I made a vow I would take back my life and that started with my privacy. Over the years I became an expert and made a new life for myself - one built on the principals of privacy and security. I used many of the same secret techniques used in the Witness Protection Program as well as additional precautions so I would never be a victim again. 
    In this book I will teach you all the tips and tricks you need to know to stay safe and regain your privacy. These tools will keep you invisible from potential stalkers and criminals.

    Peter Ross's articles from around Scotland provide a piece-by-piece portrait of a nation as it changes. They show Scotland as she really is, a hopeful country not without problems and pain, but a nation made great by the people who live, love, laugh and graft there. From anatomists who find dissection beautiful to chip-shop owners who sing arias while serving fish suppers, the Scots in these pages come over as eccentric, humorous, moving and extraordinary.

Eventually though he was forced to make a heartbreaking decision - to stay and keep secrets, or escape and find somewhere to finally belong. But Mikey quickly discovers that life in the outside world isn't all he expected. After learning his father had put a contract out on him and that he was being hunted down by gangs of thugs determined to claim their reward, Mikey realises that life will never be the same again. Brimming with unforgettable characters, this extraordinary coming-of-age story will remind you that sometimes it takes courage (and the odd Disney song) to be the person you were meant to be."
