Sinopse

For over three centuries, his identity has remained one of history’s greatest mysteries. Locked away in the depths of France’s most notorious prisons, the Man in the Iron Mask was hidden from the world, his face concealed behind a mask that became a symbol of secrecy and intrigue. Who was he? Why was he imprisoned? And what terrible secret was so dangerous that it had to be erased from history?
 
 
 
From the reign of King Louis XIV to the whispers of conspiracy that have echoed through time, this book explores the many theories surrounding the masked prisoner. Was he a fallen noble, a disgraced twin of the king, or someone whose very existence threatened the monarchy?
 
 
 
Step into the shadows of the past and uncover the truth behind the legend. His story is one of betrayal, power, and a mystery that refuses to be forgotten.

    Suzanne Joinson grew up in a 1980s council estate in Crewe, where her parents were followers of The Divine Light Mission cult. This clash of class and counterculture destroyed her family, leaving a legacy of turmoil and poverty. 
     
    Years later, she attempts to reclaim what she’s lost and piece together the impact of a childhood infused with esoteric yoga practices, psychedelic encounters, and meditation techniques. She acquires replicas of beloved objects that had to be destroyed in regular purges in the hope of restoring family ties. 
     
    The Museum of Lost and Fragile Things explores the realm of mother-daughter relationships and inherited trauma, in a moving, delicately-woven account of coming to terms with a complicated past.

    A riveting storyline that includes a sting operation carried out by 20-armed federal agents on the tarmac of a South Florida runway, and the tales of a prisoner living inside America’s maximum security prison, Leavenworth Penitentiary – this autobiography will captivate you from start to finish.Arrested With a Stolen JetIt was 9:05 in the morning. The sun was shining as our crew drove the silver Mercedes to meet the pilot of the Cessna Citation II jet taxiing toward us on the tarmac of the executive airfield in Florida.Something seemed off, but it was too late for the four of us to abort the mission.We were committed.The door of the plane opened, and off stepped the pilot I’d met with two days earlier at a Kansas City hotel room. He had agreed, for a price, to deliver a jet that was on our laundry list of planes we were stealing from the United States and delivering to the Colombians in South America.This was our second plane in a month. The pick-up place was Boca Raton, and the delivery location, Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands, where the plane would be repainted in a hanger, data plates changed, and then used in the cocaine trafficking world by the Cali Cartel.Later, I would discover two things: Boca Raton is translated, Mouth of the Rat, and a big rat was among us.I pulled a bag filled with cash from our vehicle and stepped onto the plane to meet the pilot to hand over a partial payment. The rest would be delivered once the plane was safely in the air. My pilot entered behind me in preparation to take the captain’s seat.In a matter of seconds, 20+ federal agents descended on us from all four sides, in unmarked vehicles and running on foot, all with weapons.The next thing I knew, a chrome 45 caliber pistol was pointed in my face while the agent was yelling, “Get your hands up, YOU ARE UNDER ARREST!”Everything was happening so fast. My head was spinning. My hands automatically went up in the air to display the international sign of surrender.

    Scammers aren’t just getting smarter — they’re getting personal. Fooled: Inside the World of Scams and How to Fight Back pulls back the curtain on the modern con, showing how good, honest people get caught in bad deals, fake investments, and digital traps that look too real to question. 
    Written by serial entrepreneur Joel Bouck, who’s been burned and fought his way back, Fooled blends real-life stories with practical recovery strategies. You’ll meet victims who lost fortunes, families who fell for “voice clones,” and investors blindsided by people they trusted. Each story ends with the tools and mindset you need to protect yourself — and those you love — from the next hit. 
    This isn’t another fear-based true-crime story. It’s a guide for rebuilding confidence after loss, recognizing manipulation before it happens, and creating your own digital armor in an AI-driven world. Whether you’ve been scammed, know someone who has, or just want to stay one step ahead, Fooled is your wake-up call — and your roadmap back to trust.
