Abduction: The Minivan Murders
Fuelled by methamphetamines and deviant motives, nothing was off limits for James Daveggio and Michelle Michaud. Not even their own children. Living out of a specially rigged minivan (a mobile torture chamber that included ropes, hooks, curling irons, duct tape, etc), this cold-blooded murdering duo kidnapped, tortured, raped and killed young girls from Reno, Nevada, to Sacramento, California. While the local and state police departments, and even the FBI, vigorously searched for the couple, they freely hunted for prey and carried out their months-long spree of abduction and murder. Warning: This true account is at times quite graphic which some may find disturbing.

After the Beep
Written with the laugh-out-loud humor that can only come from someone well acquainted with the mishaps of everyday corporate life, After the Beep is a highly entertaining, always amusing selection of real-and really outlandish-communications delivered via the information superhighway all day, every day in our world of real-time messaging.

Each entry is followed by Heck's witty commentary, providing a gut-busting sketch of daily corporate life. From the mundane halls of a stodgy mortgage company to the overly exuberant newsletter of a college athletic department, After the Beep captures the true comedy of supposedly professional communication gone hopelessly, and hilariously, awry.
