From a woman plunging out a window to the pursuit of a woman destined to hang at the hands of the court system, we're drawn into the patriarchal culture of 19th century Italy as it struggles to become one nation. It's Eduardo Santore's story. The rights of women lie in the hands of father, husband, culture and court. We follow Eduardo into manhood where, for the Church, he pursues a woman fleeing her husband. In the process, he commits a mortal sin. He subsequently finds himself in the office of Commasario Gaspari of the Florence police. His answer to the inspector's one question will set the course of his life. It's the century Italians struggled through to become one nation after escaping France's Napoleon III. Other nations and the Vatican interfere with the desire of the people to become "one nation of the peninsula". Their passion is to be called, "Italian".

Brother Eduardo's Mortal Crime

The Santore Story II

By: Rudy Leeman

From the discovery of mutilated children's bodies in a farmer's field to chasing smugglers in the Crimean War arena, Inspector Eduardo and his partner, Rai, face terror in a race to save stolen children delivered to Italy and their capital of Florence. They save some and lose others to vicious smugglers whose only goal is to pocket money selling the defenseless and delivering children to terrors beyond imagination. It's Eduardo Santore's Story. All this swirls around the people while Italy is at war with itself and neighboring countries as it struggles to unite as a nation of one people. King Emanuel II of Sardinia holds one of the territories of Italy. It's his army that begins gathering territories under its wing. General Garibaldi, hero to the people, battles to unite them. The ugliness of Mafia and other Families flourish as the power of evil grows among the people. They struggle to survive in a peninsula divided by a desire to be one people and the power of the Vatican to keep them from becoming Italia.

For Everything a Season

A Historical Novel of an Immigrant Family

By: Rudy Leeman

Love and tragedy, betrayal and redemption, success and failure, prison and parole, king and country, terror and triumph-all are vital parts of Leeman's saga of eight generations of his family. They won't quit; they live and die to touch the sands of the golden shore-America. For Everything a Season teaches readers when to cling, when to let go, when to fight, when to mourn, when to rejoice, and when to relax, but there is never a time-not for this family, anyway-to give up. For Everything a Season chronicles the fictionalized history of the fierce survival and intense hope of one steadfast family, a family just like a million others, whose dream it was to find freedom in America.

Brother Eduardo's Mortal Fate

The Santore Story III

By: Rudy Leeman

Near the stable was a door in the basement side of the mansion. Eduardo saw a doorknob and metal plate with the standard slot for a key. He crouched and peered through the keyhole. It was dark inside. He placed his mouth close to the keyhole. "Tasha, are you there?" An eye looked at him from the inside. An imploring voice came to him through the keyhole: "Tasha." Words in Russian, then in Italian: "Clean room. Wash clothes. No food if you noise." A torrent of words in Russian followed. Eduardo moved his mouth to the hole and said, "Be silent, Tasha. I will save you." Wars break out in Italy over who owns which territories. Child-smuggling runs rampant. Enter King Vittorio Emanuele II of Sardinia. With his army, he gathers most states of the "boot" into one national group. Soon enough, Eduardo and Rai find themselves drawn into a spy plot by King Emanuele. What the inspectors uncover as "auditors" for the Holy See, and child trafficking in Rome, reveals secrets that seal the fate of the Vatican. It leads as well to Eduardo's mortal fate.

Offshore Gas Hydrates

Origins, Development, and Production

By: Rudy Rogers

Gas hydrates collect and store both thermogenic and biogenic methane generated in deep ocean sediments that, over geologic time, forms vast methane repositories. Offshore Gas Hydrates: Origins, Development, and Production presents gas hydrates as an emerging, clean energy source possibly more abundant than all other fossil fuels and especially important for countries geographically and economically restricted from conventional fossil fuel resources. The book explores feasible methods to produce offshore hydrate gas, the means to store and transport the remotely produced gas, new hydrate inhibitors for conventional and hydrate production in ultra-deep waters, instability manifestations of seafloor hydrates, and hydrate roles in complex ecological scenarios. Complementing production and drilling method presentations are computer simulation studies, hydrate field tests, and seismic and logging developments. Offshore Gas Hydrates delivers a well-developed framework for both the oil and gas researcher and corporate engineer to better exploit this future unconventional resource, empowering the oil and gas professional with the latest data and information on sophisticated challenges that offshore hydrates present. - Addresses the technical, economic, and environmental problems of producing hydrate gas. - Introduces the overlooked and unchartered role of microbes in catalyzing offshore hydrate formations with attendant effects on stability/dissociation. - Reviews the latest world-wide field tests, research, and case studies involving seafloor hydrates, inclusive of most known hydrate provinces. - Displays two videos within the e-book only: (1) hydrates, carbonates, chemosynthetic communities, and natural hydrocarbon leakages on the seafloor at the Mississippi Canyon hydrate observatory site; (2) hydrate nucleation, migration and self-packing in a laboratory test cell under the influence of anionic surfactants. - Extends deep-water hydrate knowledge regarding the hydrate formation and protective cover for microbes within the extreme environment of Mars.
