It's time to set the record straight about Steven Avery. The Netflix series Making a Murderer was a runaway hit, with over 19 million US viewers in the first 35 days. The series left many with the opinion that Steven Avery, a man falsely imprisoned for almost 20 years on a previous, unrelated assault charge, had been framed by a corrupt police force and district attorney's office for the murder of a young photographer. Viewers were outraged, and hundreds of thousands demanded a pardon for Avery. The chief villain of the series? Ken Kratz, the special prosecutor who headed the investigation and trial. Kratz's later misdeeds—prescription drug abuse and sexual harassment—only cemented belie...
Driven grouse shooting, where flocks of Red Grouse are chased by lines of beaters so that they fly over lines of 'guns' that shoot the fast-flying birds, is a peculiarly British fieldsport. It is also peculiarly British in that it is deeply rooted in the British class system. This multi-million pound business dominates the hills of the north of England - the Pennines, the North Yorkshire Moors, the Cheviots - and throughout Scotland. Grouse shooting is big business. VERY big business And backed by powerful, wealthy lobbying groups, its tendrils run throughout British society. Inglorious makes the case for banning driven grouse shooting. The facts and arguments are presented fairly but the au...
Investigative team Blake and Avery find themselves entangled in a case involving political conflicts, personal vendettas, and England’s first celebrity chef. London, 1842. Captain William Avery is persuaded to investigate a mysterious and horrible death at the Reform, London’s newest and grandest gentleman’s club—a death the club is desperate to hush up. What he soon discovers is a web of rivalries and hatreds, both personal and political, simmering behind the club’s handsome façade. At the center is its resident genius, Alexis Soyer, “the Napoleon of food,” a chef whose culinary brilliance is matched only by his talent for self-publicity. But Avery is distracted, for where is his mentor and partner in crime Jeremiah Blake? And what if this first death is only a dress rehearsal for something far more sinister?

Avery's Dream "Jesus is Alive" is a story about a curious little girl who wanted to know the story of Jesus. He came to her in a dream, and a conversation took place between the two. He tells her of His birth, death, and resurrection. No one can tell the greatest story ever told better than Jesus Himself. Jesus shows how much He cares about children. He also shows how kind and compassionate He is. Jesus teaches children how to respect and obey their parents, and how to get along as their siblings. This book is simple, easy to read & it's a great bedtime story for parents and grandparents to read to their children or grandchildren. Also, it can be read by a child. I've always believed that it's better to teach the story of Jesus to little children. Jesus loves them and wants them to accept Him as their Lord and Savior. Jesus said, "Don't hinder the children from coming to me." This book is for all children around the world. I pray God's blessing on all who take the time to read this book to a child. God bless you.
