True story of a high school teacher and principal who murder a Pennsylvania English teacher and her two children. From the Dust Jacket: "A gentle unassuming English teacher at one of America's finest public high schools Susan was found naked bound and abused in the trunk of her car. Her children Karen and Michael had disappeared. For seven years beginning in 1979 dozens of state troopers FBI agents and prosecutors searched for the bodies of Karen and Michael now presumed dead and for the men who had murdered them. Residents of the Main Line were horrified by the murders but the convictions shocked them even more because the men who had murdered Susan and her children were not strangers; they were highly respected members of the community and they had been entrusted with the care and education of children. William Bradfield charismatic intelligent attractive ran the English department at Upper Merion High.

Colorado Springs Colorado U.S.A.: NavPress 2002. Book. Near-Fine. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. A photo of this book is available. Near-fine clean copy. NO remainder marks or dustcover clippings. Tight spine bright pages. ONLY writing/mark inside book is an update about Lay and Skilling in back of book on blank page. NO tears inside book. Dustcover is clean NO tears. Synopsis The subtle seduction of power and riches has taken over corporate America. WorldCom Global Crossing. Tyco. Enron. What do all of these once ballyhooed but now reviled corporations have in common besides bankruptcy and a passel of soon-to-be-indicted senior executives They all share a thirst for quick profits at the expense of investors employees and the most basic of business ethics. The Tao of Enron shows how the core values at Enron led inevitably to its implosion. By sketching out the stories of several of the principal players in this debacle the authors show how pride impatience a lust for power and the ability to mentally separate issues of faith from the practice of business joined forces to destroy one of America's most admired "young" companies. Authors Chris Seay and Chris Bryan examine the universal issues of faith we can learn from this Fortune 500 fallout. The hard-learned lessons can benefit not merely the boardroom but also the living room. Anyone can fall prey to the same lust for power possessions and status that poisoned Enron. Considering that in 1997 over 57 percent of Americans believed you sometimes have to bend the rules to get by in life Barna Research this book is necessary in helping us inspect our goals and beliefs and how they play out in our everyday lives. All of us must choose between two roads that stretch out before us--and all of us are "this close" to the dark side. NavPress Hardcover

SPY SHADOW SIGNED COPY
London: UK: Simon & Schuster 1989. 1st ed. Pages age toned with light wrinkling of a few pages else a fine copy in un-clipped dust jacket. SIGNED by Sebastian at the title page ."Sebastian sustains what might have seemed an endangered genre abetted by a last-minute postponement of publication date that allowed him to update the book in light of the political changes in Eastern Europe. The result is an extraordinarily timely and engaging story. James Tristram is an aging secret operative constructed on the George Smiley model--soft of body but sharp of mind. Sent by English spymaster Cornish to aid an uprising against the Polish government and its Russian sponsors Tristram discovers the mission is a ploy. The real plot concocted by Russian Stalinists with the aid of a long-time mole in the British secret service aims to discredit the government of the Gorbachev-like general secretary of the Russian Communist Party. Appalled Tristram sets out on a lonely effort to prevent the destruction of the Polish underground and the discrediting of the reformers." --PW. Signed by Author. 1st Edition. Hard Cover.

Dust jacket unclipped now under mylar minimal shelf wear slight bumping on top spine. Interior pages clean unmarked TIGHT AND BRIGHT. On her way home from school on a snowy December day in 1973 14-year-old Susie Salmon "like the fish" is lured into a makeshift underground den in a cornfield and brutally raped and murdered the latest victim of a serial killer--the man she knew as her neighbor Mr. Harvey. Alice Sebold's haunting and heartbreaking debut novel The Lovely Bones unfolds from heaven where "life is a perpetual yesterday" and where Susie narrates and keeps watch over her grieving family and friends as well as her brazen killer and the sad detective working on her case. As Sebold fashions it everyone has his or her own version of heaven. Susie's resembles the athletic fields and landscape of a suburban high school: a heaven of her "simplest dreams" where "there were no teachers. We never had to go inside except for art class. The boys did not pinch our backsides or tell us we smelled; our textbooks were Seventeen and Glamour and Vogue." The Lovely Bones works as an odd yet affecting coming-of-age story. Susie struggles to accept her death while still clinging to the lost world of the living following her family's dramas over the years like an episode of My So-Called Afterlife.Her family disintegrates in their grief: her father becomes determined to find her killer her mother withdraws her little brother Buckley attempts to make sense of the . #1 bestseller celebrated at once for its artistry for its luminous clarity of emotion and for its astonishing power to lay claim to the hearts of millions of readers around the world.
