An A student whose girlfriend jilted him; a gifted athlete who made it all the way to the World Series, although his career was cut short by an injury. But that was in the 60’s! He went on to Harvard Law School and a lucrative 32-year legal career. He married and has two wonderful children. Why would this man have a care in the world now? Well, he does. Three people are eating away at him. None of them knows each other and never will, but together they have ruined his life. He needs to settle the score. This is his nail-biting tale of ambition and success, deceit and betrayal, sorrow and bitter, virtually psychopathic revenge. The questions throughout? Will his lifelong best friend give up any runs – or anything else – and will this player get three hits and make no errors?
This is a laugh-filled story about scheming, stealing, love, and devotion to family. You might wonder how such a plot could be so funny. Well, just read, and you’ll be treated as well to international suspense because stealing is an international pastime these days. Darrell Kleve is a single parent. He’s also the investment chief at a prominent Boston firm and the author of a book on the New York Times best-seller list. That has made him a favorite on the speaking circuit in both America and Europe. As if that weren’t enough, two beautiful women are throwing themselves at him. Melanie Toland and Patty Gray. They are very different, but they have one thing in common: nasty motives. Patty has dirty secrets, but so does Darrell. Melanie is of questionable character and is in a position to bring down Darrell, and Patty too.
The history of the development of submarines covered in this book spans the most tumultuous years of the 20th century. When the little Holland No. 1 was launched in 1901, few could guess that the submarine would become the most potent weapon of war ever developed.
John Lennon’s “Imagine” is widely regarded as one of the great, maybe the greatest, anthems for peace, as are many of his other songs, notably “Happy Christmas (War is Over)” and “Give Peace a Chance.” This is the story of how John’s memory and spirit could affect the current geopolitical scene. Or is it the man himself?! And so it’s a story about peace and about characters as diverse as they are numerous: Arthur Williams, successful businessman; Dave Conley, White House staffer; Laura Sparrow, the world’s top female pop act and Arthur’s wife; Joe Marcello, her manager; Stacey, Joe’s wife and Hideki Yokobori, the most influential music man in Japan. Join them as they navigate through the White House to Iraq and Afghanistan and blend good old-fashioned capitalism, pop music’s top acts and the President and his cabinet in a tale of success and fame, greed, infidelity, disappointment and a mysterious and delightful British Foreign Minister.
