The Betrayer
We are born with our father's names… The Father: I built my million-dollar company from the ground up with hard work and sweat. Now I can sit back and relax as my son takes on more of the burden. At least, that's what way I see things. My son? Not so much. He's uptight to my laidback, stern to my loose control, and he worries far too much. He disagrees with my lifestyle, but I've earned the way I live, and I'm not about to change. Unless, of course, it tears apart our already tenuous relationship. The Son: My father might have started our company, but I'm the one who made it what it is—a billion-dollar corporation. It required time and my smarts, but I know how to work hard. My father? N...
Panic Button
This book is hard to put down. Martin's PANIC BUTTON tells a story with a style that allows you to see the action clearly inside your mind's eye. Jason and Paul Grimsby are two brothers whose damaged childhood has ruined their adult counterparts. Their past unfolds as Jason is now threatened by a killer that Jason was unfortunate to disturb at a murder scene. The police believe that Jason may be the actual murderer. Everything that Jason cares about or believes in is cruelly and sadistically stripped away from him as a childhood ailment leaves him hopelessly unable to defend himself. Eventually, he runs to his protective brother, as in the past, as a vicious killer closes in. The two brothers are back together again but it may cost Jason his brothers' life this time. The killer seems to always be one step ahead of Jason and time has run out. This is a story of one man's refusal to accept his past or his present circumstances and if he doesn't overcome this, it will cost him his future. Every man has a clear and defining breaking point. This is a story of human triumph through tragedy.

Sick To Death and Not Going to Take It Anymore!
Just a few generations ago, serious illness, like hazardous weather, arrived with little warning, and people either lived through it or died. In this important, convincing, and long-overdue call for health care reform, Joanne Lynn demonstrates that our current health system, like our concepts of health and disease, developed at a time when life was mostly short, serious illnesses and disabilities were common at every age, and dying was quick. Today, most Americans live a long life, with the disabilities and discomforts of progressive chronic illness appearing only during the final chapters of their life stories. Sick to Death and Not Going to Take It Anymore! maintains that health care and community services are not set up to meet the needs of the large number of people who face a prolonged period of progressive illness and disability before death. Lynn offers what she calls an "owner's manual for the health care system," which lays out facts, concepts, strategies, and action plans for genuine reform and gives the reader new ways to interpret information creatively, imagine innovative possibilities, and take steps to implement them.
