This is a delicious murder mystery in which we are introduced to Jeremy Wadlington-Smythe, a newcomer to the wonderful world of the whodunnit. In this novel, the first of the series, Jeremy, an accomplished orchestral conductor with a unique view of his mission, accepts an engagement to lead a major American symphony orchestra only to find himself in the midst of murder and mayhem. Jeremy is recruited by the president of the board of a major American symphony orchestra because of his unorthodox approach to the business of orchestral music making. He is simultaneously a very successful conductor with a much larger than typical following, and mistrusted by the administrators of the orchestras he conducts because his approach is in direct contradiction to the by now century old paradigm in which they are floundering. The mystery evolves seamlessly from this background, and the musical polemic and evolution of the story are intertwined. In the end, Jeremy solves the mystery in a manner which will leave the reader as surprised as those to whom Jeremy addresses his summary. This is a book that will delight mystery lovers with a complex plot and an entertaining cast of characters, many of whom will return in further mystery novels in the Jeremy Smythe series. Jeremy is a foodie and he's funny. Detective Lieutenant Max Mollery Plays Inspector Jaap to Jeremy's Poirot, but is smarter. Joely Tresser is the female lead, a woman of keen intelligence and exceptional beauty. The background of the story is the financially crumbling world of the symphony orchestra in the USA, though it is relevant to the plight of orchestras the world over.

"Part elegy, part musings on the great mysteries of life, Vodou Saints is at the same time an inspirational story of lessons learned from Haitians in the over three decades that Dr. Arthur Fournier has worked with them, both in Miami and in Haiti. These lessons span the early days of the AIDS epidemic in Miami, the political turmoil of the Aristide years, the earthquake that devastated Haiti in 2010 and most recently the outbreak of cholera. Through all these experiences Haitians have taught Dr. Fournier a worldview quite different from his own. Fournier uses this adopted worldview not only to deal with tragedy in his own life but to make sense out of the seeming contradictions between science, philosophy and theology concerning the interface between Man and the unknown. This is a profound book that could best be compared to Albert Camus' "The Plague"", except this story is real! Consistently thought provoking and inspiring - at times humbling and even disturbing - this story is more than a chronicle of the disasters that have befallen this poor and poorly understood country or the resilience of its people. It's also a story of Fournier's own journey towards redemption and healing. A quest to be not only a better doctor, but also a better person - a Vodou Saint."

Memoirs

The past is simply part of our story; just not the whole story...On the very day that Nancy Sharp delivered premature twins, she learned that her husband's brain cancer returned after eighteen months in remission. Less than three years later, at the age of 37, she became a widow. But while many in that situation would crumble, Nancy had an innate ability to hold life and death in the same moment. She learned to "see beyond the frame's edge." In BOTH SIDES NOW: A True Story of Love, Loss, and Bold Living, Nancy shares her unforgettable journey - one that offers enlightened understanding for living life to the fullest. Her story is a gift to those looking to lift themselves from the embers of loss and adversity through bold living. Seeking the solace of the Rocky Mountains and a fresh start, Nancy packs up her five year-old twins and leaves Manhattan for Denver, never imagining that she would find love in the pages of a magazine. But after reading an article on eligible bachelors, Nancy sends an email to Steve Saunders, a popular Denver television anchor turned political candidate as well as a widower who'd lost his wife to cancer, and was raising two sons a decade older than Nancy's twins. Today they have been married for six years. BOTH SIDES NOW is the recipient of seven literary honors: First Book Finalist for Books For A Better Life; USA BEST BOOK Finalist; National Indie Excellence Award; Readers' Favorite International Book Award; Living Now Book Award; American Book Fest International Book Award; and a CIPA EVVY. Conversations Book Club with Cyrus Webb also named BOTH SIDES NOW as a top 50 nonfiction read of 2014. In BOTH SIDES NOW, Nancy explores: · What it was like for her to learn her husband's cancer had returned on the same day she delivered premature twins · Coping with his long illness and the unexpected beauty surrounding his death · What gave her the courage to move from NYC to Denver with young twins to start a new life · How she literally plucked her new husband, Steve, from the pages of a magazine · What it really means to hold the past, present, and future at the same time · How we comes to own our stories without letting them define us· A compelling snapshot of BOLD Living

These black-and-white portraits document the same children over time: They chronicle childhood, often over decades, and mark the delicate transition into adulthood. Some time after the last picture has been taken they or their parents look back with tenderness and candor about this wondrous period of time. Pulitzer-prize winning authors Madeleine Blais and Dave Barry have written essays on childhood for the book.
