  Bestselling author Loren W. Christensen served as a Military Policeman in Saigon, Vietnam, "the most dangerous city in the world," as it was called at the time. Shortly after returning home, he joined the Portland Police Bureau in Oregon, serving for twenty-five years. As a street cop, there were times he was dispatched to dead body calls so frequently that other officers teasingly called him the "Death Car." 
   
   
   
  It didn't help that the morgue was in his beat, which meant he and his partner were often called to identify freshly brought in corpses without identification. 
   
   
   
  Dead Body Calls tells of some of his experiences with the victims of suicide, homicide, fatal accidents, and natural deaths that crossed his path. Loren shows the effects of the deaths on family and friends at the scenes and the eventual toll on him and other officers.

  You reuse passwords. You click links without thinking. You accepted a connection request last week from someone you don't quite remember meeting. You have done at least one of these things in the past thirty days, and so has almost every person you know. 
  This book is about what happens next. 
  Moving Target: The Art of Online Camouflage follows Stevie Parker, a composite character built from the real experiences of people whose lives collided with cybercrime. Across twelve chapters, Stevie makes the same small, ordinary mistakes most of us make every day while real crime stories play out alongside her, sourced from FBI briefings, ransomware negotiators, fraud victims, and the criminals themselves. 
  This is not an IT book. This is a crime book. 
  The criminals in these pages are not mysterious hackers in hoodies. They are organized crime syndicates running businesses with quotas, shift changes, HR departments, and performance reviews. They have studied you longer than you have studied them. 
  Dean Mauro, host of Cyber Crime Junkies on YouTube, FBI InfraGard member, and VP of Growth at NetGain Technologies, has spent years sitting across from people who just found out. This book is everything he wished someone had told them before that conversation happened. 
  You do not need to become a cybersecurity expert. You do not need to build Fort Knox. You just need to stop being the easiest target on the street. The basics work. Camouflage works. And by the end of this book, Stevie Parker is out of range. 
  Now it is your turn. 
  Book One of The Moving Target Trilogy. Narrated by the author.

  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.
