The Revelation of Great Genius, Great Dedication, & Great Patriotism
Revisado: 04-22-25
All the fascination of hard working people, of their great devotion and sacrifices to the safety of our nation, sacrifices which included a star on a certain wall in the CIA headquarters. This will give you an appreciation and respect for those usually unknown people.

Historia
Jonna Hiestand Mendez began her CIA career as a “contract wife” performing secretarial duties for the CIA as a convenience to her husband, a young officer stationed in Europe. She needed his permission to open a bank account or shut off the gas to their apartment. Yet Mendez had a talent for espionage, too, and she soon took on bigger and more significant roles at the Agency. She parlayed her interest in photography into an operational role overseas, an unlikely area for a woman in the CIA.

The Power of Women
Revisado: 04-18-25
Jonna Mendez’s memoir is an exciting and inspiring tale of a life in the secret and all-consuming world of the CIA. But, even more powerful and important is a profoundly telling lesson on the sadly often misogynisticly ignored potential in half of the human race. Despite the disparaging and damaging words and actions directed toward women by the current executive branch, Jonna and Tony Mendez’s lives demonstrate the incredible strength and wisdom of those many women who walk beside us men as equal and sometimes superior partners.

An Incredible Addition to the Ripper Legends
Revisado: 04-11-25
The drama never ceases. You are grabbed by the story, and it is nearly impossible to pause in your reading and listening. (Yes, and be sure to get the audiobook.). The personalities are expertly defined, and you get the feeling that you really know the characters. Oh, and there are parts that are scary as hell.

England, 1914. The world is at war. Captain Hastings, injured and shaken, is invited to Styles Court to recover. It’s a grand old country house - the family home of his old friend - and a perfect haven. Or so it seems. But in the blistering summer heat, trouble is afoot. Simmering tensions are tearing the family apart, and it all comes to a head in the most horrifying way.

Peter Dinklage put in a masterful performance-- as always. All the other actors were excellent, as was the production as a whole. I hope to hear them all in another Poirot mystery.

I very much disliked that it ended. A couple of hundred more sols on Mars would have been great. Oh, and the narrator couldn’t have been better. Thanks for an exciting visit to Mars.

Historia
The long-awaited sequel to Time and Again . Si Morley is back and the world may never be the same. When Time and Again was published in 1970, it immediately developed a loyal following that has grown with each passing year. With this book, Jack Finney returned to the same magical territory and finds Ruben Prien still at work with the Project, still dreaming of altering man's fate by going back in time to adjust events... to interfere, some might say, with destiny.

Filled with ex-wives, evangelists, and an armed pit-bull, this is a story that could only be concocted by Carl Hiaasen, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, New York Times best-selling author, and czar of Florida noir fiction.

Historia
Paris in 1895: Alfred Dreyfus, a young Jewish officer, has just been convicted of treason, sentenced to life imprisonment at Devil's Island, and stripped of his rank in front of a baying crowd of 20,000. Among the witnesses to his humiliation is Georges Picquart, the ambitious, intellectual, recently promoted head of the counterespionage agency that Dreyfus had passed secrets to the Germans. At first, Picquart firmly believes in Dreyfus' guilt. But it is not long after Dreyfus is delivered to his desolate prison that Picquart stumbles on information that leads him to suspect that there is still a spy at large in the French military.

The Good, the Bad, and Alfred Dreyfus
Revisado: 03-18-24
A magnificent insight by Robert Harris into a dark and moldy part of history. It is amazing to me that hatred for the Jews should have lasted for over 2000 years. Homo sapiens has produced such brilliant insights into the nature of the universe and in our own world. No other animal has gained such power over the Earth. Yet, for all the good we have accomplished, we have also brought so much cruelty and pain to ourselves and all other life. Robert Harris has given us Aa sobering view into a dark episode of our recent history. Irrational, unreasoned violence against our fellow human beings reduce ourselves to instinct-driven, cannibalistic predators.
Thanks to Robert Harris for giving us an understanding into the good and bad in all of us. The evil in the 19th Century French military still resides in all of us. The good that resided in all of the men and women who supported Alfred Dreyfus can be ours, too.

A Greater Murder Mystery & More
Revisado: 02-16-24
All the characters were well-defined. The mystery was tricky and kept you guessing. In some ways it was a morality play. You got to look into the eyes of people who seemed real somehow. The audiobook version was read by a professional who really knew how to add to a story. I was very well-satisfied with the hours I spent reading and listening to this tale.

One of the best time travel yarns I’ve ever read. The characters are well defined and either very likable or very unlikable. The paradoxes of time travel are cleverly used and keep you guessing. Go ahead! Read and listen to it. It will be worth your time.
