Whispering Death
Lee Heide's wartime adventures read like fiction but they are factual, brought to life by skillful characterization and dialogue. Raised in Vancouver, he was trained as a navigator and flew overseas in a Hudson aircraft in June, 1941. In England he joined an RAF crew for training on Beaufort torpedo bombers. Sent to Malta, he survived a year of the blitz on that island, with heavy losses to his squadron. Upon converting to Beaufighters he was twice posted as missing. The first time, he and his pilot were washed ashore, after five days in a dinghy, on enemy-held Elba whence they escaped by boat to Corsica. The second time his aircraft was shot up in the Aegean and forced to land in Turkey where he was interned. A meticulous recorder, Heide's descriptions of places and events in the Middle East are informative and entertaining. The title Whispering Death was the name given by the Germans to the Beaufighter--one of the outstanding attack aircraft of the war. Readers will not lightly put down this autobiography.

Children and Youth at Risk in Times of Transition
Children and youth belong to one of the most vulnerable groups in societies. This was the case even before the current humanitarian crises around the world which led millions of people and families to flee from wars, terror, poverty and exploitation. Minors have been denied human rights such as access to education, food and health services. They have been kidnapped, sold, manipulated, mutilated, killed, and injured.

Rather, current geopolitical developments, political and economic uncertainties and instabilities seem to be increasing...

Terrorist Cove
Research for Terrorist Cove was started by Lee Heide about two years ago as he foresaw the tragic events of 11 Sep 2001. Not New York's World Trade Centre of course, but he was certain that some form of Islamic attack was about to take place on mainland America. The novel postulates a major Islamic base on northern Vancouver Island where a Master Bomber (an Iraqi chemical engineer named Orrin Hadi) has a laboratory and makes bombs to strike at American installations in Canada. His base is also used for smuggling illegal Asians into Canada and the U.S. and for shipments of cocaine and heroin bound for Chinese Triads across the country. A small air charter company, located near Vancouver, often flies over northern Vancouver Island with parties of hunters and fishermen. They discover the terrorist base and get into trouble doing so, especially the lovely aircraft captain - Gina Marcello. Eventually the site is revealed to the RCMP who call in a team from JTF-2, Canada's anti-terrorism force.
