Sociopathic individuals are rampant in our society. They can be likeable people, who we are inclined to trust as they are able to hide their distain and disregard for others. In Jack Be Quick, I have used my psychiatric expertise to create characters who fit the sociopathic profile and initially leave the other characters, and therefore the readers, confused as to their true personality and motivations. Michael Marshall, a wealthy and obviously unscrupulous industrialist, is murdered. A short time later, his widow, Jill, comes to see Dr. Daniel Cooper, a psychiatrist, ostensibly to help her overcome her depression resulting from her husband's murder. Jill expresses doubts to Dr. Cooper, and eventually to Captain Jack DeAngelis, head of the homicide division, as to whether Michael's death was murder with robbery as the motive. Initially, no one suspects that Jill, an attractive woman of apparent refinement, could be guilty of duplicity in the murder. Through many twists and turns, including the murders of Marshall's accountant and private banker, the involvement of the mob, and the smuggling of drugs, the involvement of Jill becomes clear. Her sociopathic ability to worm her way out of this dilemma fools even the best detectives, but perhaps not the most cunning reader? Jack Be Quick is a murder mystery as well as an intriguing study about the complexities of the human mind.
Inspired by the classic nursery rhyme, Jack employs his marital arts training to complete a secret mission that ends with a surpise.
It is Jack's birthday. He and his friends play many jumping games at the party. Will Jack jump over his birthday candles?

Edgar Award–winning editor Otto Penzler's latest anthology takes its inspiration from the historical enigma whose name has become synonymous with fear: Jack the Ripper. Of the real-life serial killers whose gruesome acts have been splashed across headlines, none has reached the mythical status of Jack the Ripper. In the Ripper's wake, terror swept through the streets of London’s East End in the fall of 1888. As quickly as his nightmarish reign came, Saucy Jack vanished without a trace—leaving future generations to speculate upon his identity and whereabouts. He was diabolical in a way never seen before—a killer who taunted the police, came up with his own legendary monikers, and, ultimately, got away with his heinous crimes. More than a century later, the man “from hell” continues to live on in the imaginations of readers everywhere—and in some of the most spec­tacularly unnerving stories, both fiction and nonfiction, ever written. The Big Book of Jack the Ripper immerses you in the utterly chilling world of Red Jack’s London, where his unprecedented evil still lurks. Including: · Legendary stories by Marie Belloc Lowndes, Robert Bloch, and Ellery Queen · Captivating essays from George Bernard Shaw, Stephen Hunter, and Peter Underwood · Riveting new stories by contemporary masters Jeffrey Deaver, Loren D. Estleman, Lyndsay Faye, and many more · Astonishing theories from the world’s foremost Ripperologists From the Ripper Vault: · Demonic letters from Jack himself · Gruesome postmortem exams documenting all the bits and pieces of the cases · Harrowing witness statements taken on those hellish nights · Breaking newspaper accounts of the East End hysteria

For a man who died in the prime of his life, he had much to say. Some of what he wrote is brilliant. Some is "way out, man." See what the mind is capable of in different periods of life. See what the mind contemplates when it is awash in various wonder drugs. The purpose for living is a quest of everyone, at sometime. Sometimes people figure it out -- sometimes they don't. How long does one need to decipher the "meaning of life?"
