Sinopse

In Quebec, about one in seven people has a criminal record. 


Julien Dion has never had a job. Even in a labour shortage, companies don't hire schizophrenic ex-convicts in their 30s without work experience. 


Participating in a weekend of clinical trials in exchange for a fee becomes an interesting solution, unless you end up in the wrong place at the wrong time. 


Plunged unaware into the heart of a police investigation and haunted by the ghosts of his past, the young man will have to learn to ignore other people's opinions and accept who he is to reintegrate into society and finally live the life he covets. But can people really get rid of labels? 


Judi is the first novel in a thriller trilogy that includes Freedom 56 and Hook.

Who Murdered FDR?

Stephen B. Ubaney

It's time to revisit 1945 and the final days World War II in a way that no one else ever has. Grab your thinking cap and join author Steve Ubaney in volume II of his Who Murdered? book series, where he probes every part of FDR's mysterious death. We have been told all the lies for decades, now it's time to answer some very pointed questions. Why did Eleanor Roosevelt suddenly, 12 years after FDR’s death, hire a private investigator to probe his doctor’s treatment methods? Why were all of FDR’s medical records stolen from a locked filing cabinet at Bethesda Naval Hospital, which was ironically, the same hospital that covered up so many facts during the JFK autopsy? Are we really expected to believe that FDR died of natural causes at the same time Allied Troops were closing in on Hitler’s bunker? Are we really expected to believe that Roosevelt, Hitler and Mussolini all died within an 18 day span by coincidence? This book will change the way you look at WWII and President Roosevelt's death forever. It did not happen as we were told. Can you handle the truth?
