In 1939, Agatha Christie wrote her most successful novel, one she said was the most difficult to write. It is the story of a madman who invited ten people to spend a holiday on an island off the Devon coast of England. They were lured by either a promise of employment or a chance to meet old friends. The madman’s real motive for the invitation was to have them murdered, which occurred. The title of Christie’s book was And Then There Were None. The author of The Blue of Portsmouth PD series decided to deviate from writing his own murder plot and instead made the decision to bring Christie’s victims from the island off the shore of England and have the murdered in New Hampshire. The Portsmouth PD detectives, led by Madison “Madi” March, were given the challenge to solve the murders. To give the book an authentic Agatha Christie flavor, Madi’s addled uncle, Henri Parrot, who believes he is the incarnation of Christie’s great detective, Hercule Poirot, is given a badge by Chief Bethany Van Dike and made an honorary sergeant. Surprisingly, Sgt. Henri Parrot has all the detective skills of Hercule Poirot and becomes the leading character of the story.

Andy Grove, founder and former CEO of Intel shares his strategy for success as he takes the reader deep inside the workings of a major company in Only the Paranoid Survive. Under Andy Grove's leadership, Intel became the world's largest chip maker and one of the most admired companies in the world. In Only the Paranoid Survive, Grove reveals his strategy for measuring the nightmare moment every leader dreads--when massive change occurs and a company must, virtually overnight, adapt or fall by the wayside--in a new way. Grove calls such a moment a Strategic Inflection Point, which can be set off by almost anything: mega-competition, a change in regulations, or a seemingly modest change in technology. When a Strategic Inflection Point hits, the ordinary rules of business go out the window. Yet, managed right, a Strategic Inflection Point can be an opportunity to win in the marketplace and emerge stronger than ever. Grove underscores his message by examining his own record of success and failure, including how he navigated the events of the Pentium flaw, which threatened Intel's reputation in 1994, and how he has dealt with the explosions in growth of the Internet. The work of a lifetime, Only the Paranoid Survive is a classic of managerial and leadership skills.
It has been almost two years since I wrote my first book ( I Survived A Murder Untold) I am now 55 yrs of age. Since my first book God has ordered my steps so greatly and I am thankful for what he has allowed me to accomplish since my first book. In 1967, I had to return home from Richmond, Va. To be placed in another foster home in Spotsylvania, Va. The things I endured while waiting to return to Spotsylvania, Va. Were hard and some were cruel, thinking that I was safe from all harm and danger was not the case. Survival was a continuous thing, the gruesome child abuse I endured in 1965 was just that. Now. Surviving the mental struggles and tragedy that happened in 1965 seemed almost as severe. Here is part two of my journey to survive.

Over the past 68 years you will read about all my trials and tribulations encountered along my journey. I have never achieved greatness, probably due to my poor education and lack of self-confidence but never-the- less my life has been full of adventure. I was never afraid to try something new and I was never afraid of failure. I hope that this book inspires people to carry on and make the best of their lives as I have done.
