Maggie Davidson lives in fear after being robbed on the street outside her office. But the trauma has only just begun, and now she must face her attacker in court. A chance encounter with a beautiful woman in the courthouse café is the only bright spot in her day, until she finds out just who the woman is. Ally Becker has always been her brother’s hero, and she’s at the courthouse to support him as he faces up to his mistakes. When she discovers that the stranger she shared coffee with is actually Maggie, the victim of her brother’s crime, she is torn between family loyalty and an attraction she can’t seem to forget. Maggie and Ally have absolutely no intention of falling in love, but what they find in each other just might heal them both.

This volume, the second of a three-part documentary, continues the history of the Guyana-Venezuela border issue from where Volume One left off. It describes Venezuelas dissatisfaction over the territorial and boundary award issued in 1899 by the international arbitral tribunal, subsequently leading to that countrys government unilaterally declaring it in 1962 as being null and void. The volume goes on to examine the evolved political events, including the sporadic Venezuelan infringements of Guyanas territorial integrity and the pursuit of diplomacy by both countries, resulting eventually in 1966 to a formal agreement at Geneva aimed at seeking a practical settlement of the controversy arising from Venezuelas contention of the nullity of the arbitral award. A subsidiary protocol to suspend the search for a settlement was signed in Port of Spain in 1970, but the succeeding twelve-year period was characterized by a succession of bilateral political interplay, resulting in Venezuelas decision to terminate this pact in 1982.
In class actions, attorneys effectively hire clients rather than act as their agent. Lawyer-financed, lawyer-controlled, and lawyer-settled, this entrepreneurial litigation invites lawyers to act in their own interest. John Coffee’s goal is to save class action, not discard it, and to make private enforcement of law more democratically accountable.
A group of entities on the other side of the veil came together for the specific purpose of dictating this material to Sherri through automatic writing. This was originally introduced in her first book, “Windows of Opportunity.” As they stated, “The purpose of this book is simple. It is to help people make it through the Shift with as little stress and drama as is humanly possible during a sensation of this type, and it is sensational as it is something that beings are gathering from all corners of the universe to see. It is something that entities would give there ‘soul teeth’ to be part of because it is so juicy and so new and so historic. Being on your side and having to worry about weather changes and storms and disasters isn’t fun, and we all know that, but on this side we know that every one of you who is there signed up for it and you were chosen to be there. It is not something that you are part of because of bad luck.”
