  "A historically accurate picture of the characters involved in the complicated frontier-era poisoning investigation" (MLive.com). 
   
   
    
  The spring of 1903 proved disastrous for the Murphy family. On April 22, the infant Ruth Murphy died in her crib. Within an hour, her mother, Gertrude, experienced a violent spasm before she, too, died. Ten days later, John Murphy followed his wife and child to the grave after suffering from a crippling convulsion. While neighbors whispered about a curse and physicians feared a contagious disease, Kalkaska County sheriff John W. Creighton and prosecuting attorney Ernest C. Smith searched for answers. As they probed deeper into the suspicious deaths, they uncovered a wicked web of intrigue. And at the center stood a widow in a black taffeta dress.

  Canada Under Siege - How PEI...

  In a chilling tale of soft power, corruption, and covert influence, Canada Under Siege pulls back the curtain on how the Chinese Communist Party quietly turned Prince Edward Island into a strategic forward operating base—right under the noses of Islanders and Ottawa alike.
  		 
  Drawing from a nearly two-year investigation by veteran intelligence officer and Chief of Asia Pacific (CSIS) Michel Juneau-Katsuya, former RCMP financial crime chief Garry Clement, and publisher Dean Baxendale, this groundbreaking exposé follows the money, the land grabs, the political manipulation, and the elites, captured or compromised.
  		This is not fiction. With whistleblower testimony, court documents, and explosive first-hand accounts stretching from Charlottetown to Taiwan, this book connects the dots between organized crime, espionage, elite capture, and Beijing’s United Front Work Department.
  		 
  What emerges is a damning picture of how one of the world’s most authoritarian regimes used immigration loopholes, Buddhist temples, and Anne of Green Gables to anchor its influence in Canada’s Prince Edward Island, the birthplace of Canadian Confederation. With China’s increased belligerence towards taking Taiwan by force, the authors show readers how the infiltration of Buddhist groups is playing a key role in the soft power dynamic in Taiwan and around the world, particularly as it relates to His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Tibetan Buddhism.
  		 
  Canada Under Siege is more than an exposé, it’s a warning. The threat is no longer at the gates. It’s already here. The time to act is now.

  In 1981, detective Kay Schucker was the lead investigator in the high-profile missing persons case of Old Dominion University student Janice Starr. The beautiful coed disappeared without a trace from ODU's Norfolk, Virginia campus. Among the only leads was Janice's diary, which included detailed journal entries about her daily activities. As Kay studied the diary—going several years back—she learned that Janice, a US Army veteran, had faced the same challenges in the military that Kay did in law enforcement. They were both women trying to succeed in a man's world. Feeling a kinship toward Janice, Kay became consumed with unraveling the mystery of Janice's disappearance and possible death. 
   
   
   
  As the investigation unfolded, Kay began to suspect that Janice had an affair with her ROTC professor at ODU, Army captain Dwight Beddingfield—a well-respected family man married with three kids. Kay was warned by superiors to tread lightly in her investigation of Beddingfield and cautioned not to dig too deeply. But she soon uncovered a life insurance scheme and discovered that Janice had been assigned a series of dangerous tasks by Captain Beddingfield. Did these circumstances play a role in Janice's demise? Was the highly regarded Beddingfield actually a killer? If so, what did he do with Janice's remains?

  Charles Manson Anarchy - Inside...

  Charles Manson rose to infamy in 1969 with the orchestration of seven gruesome murders in Los Angeles, California. What shocked the world even more than the heinous acts themselves was the fact that Manson did not personally commit any of the murders. Instead, he wielded an eerie control over a group of devoted followers known as the Manson Family, convincing them to carry out his evil bidding. 
  "Charles Manson Anarchy" delves deep into the twisted psyche of one of America's most notorious cult leaders. This compelling narrative dissects Manson's manipulative and cunning nature, revealing how his early proclivities for crime and manipulation evolved into a full-blown psychopathy characterized by narcissism, sadism, and a complete lack of empathy. 
  The book vividly depicts the 1960s counter-culture, a turbulent social and political upheaval era. This period, marked by psychedelic drug use, sexual exploration, and communal living, provided the perfect breeding ground for Manson's sinister machinations. He expertly exploited the era's ideals, using psychedelic drugs to control his followers and twisting the concept of sexual freedom into a tool for manipulation and abuse. 
  Through meticulous research and psychological analysis, "Charles Manson Anarchy" uncovers how Manson's environment enabled his rise to power. The free love and communal ethos of the time allowed him to amass a following he could bend to his will. Without the unique backdrop of the 1960s, Manson might never have been able to exert such deadly influence. 
  This book is not just a recounting of crimes but a profound exploration of how a malignant personality can twist societal values to serve its dark purposes. "Charles Manson Anarchy" is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the mind of a psychopath and the cultural context that can foster such dangerous influence.
