JACK MURPHY DELIVERS JUSTICE Detective Jack Murphy can read a crime scene like a book. When the naked, brutalized corpse of a narcotics cop is found, it’s not the body that tells him a sick killer is on the loose, but the monkey figurine—of the “see no evil” kind—shoved down his throat. It’s a message, not a clue. Then a high-profile judge is set on fire. Another figurine left behind. Murphy has a guess what’s next. But it’s not what he expects. The torture-killer taking out Evansville’s defenders of law and order isn’t the only one with secrets. The victims might have a few, too . . . Praise for Rick Reed and his novels “A jaw-dropping thriller.”—Gregg Olsen “Leaves you wondering whether you really did lock the doors before you went to bed.”—Mystery Scene “Put this on your must-read list.”—John Lutz “The things Reed has seen as a police officer make for a great book.” —Suspense Magazine “Rick Reed knows the dark side as only a real-life cop can, and his writing crackles with authenticity.” —Shane Gericke

A New York Times Bestseller A Washington Post Notable Nonfiction Book of 2020 Named a Best Book of 2020 by NPR “A fascinating scientific, cultural, spiritual and evolutionary history of the way humans breathe—and how we’ve all been doing it wrong for a long, long time.” —Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Big Magic and Eat Pray Love No matter what you eat, how much you exercise, how skinny or young or wise you are, none of it matters if you’re not breathing properly. There is nothing more essential to our health and well-being than breathing: take air in, let it out, repeat twenty-five thousand times a day. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences. Journalist James Nestor travels the world to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it. The answers aren’t found in pulmonology labs, as we might expect, but in the muddy digs of ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, New Jersey choir schools, and the smoggy streets of São Paulo. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices like Pranayama, Sudarshan Kriya, and Tummo and teams up with pulmonary tinkerers to scientifically test long-held beliefs about how we breathe. Modern research is showing us that making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can jump-start athletic performance; rejuvenate internal organs; halt snoring, asthma, and autoimmune disease; and even straighten scoliotic spines. None of this should be possible, and yet it is. Drawing on thousands of years of medical texts and recent cutting-edge studies in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry, and human physiology, Breath turns the conventional wisdom of what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function on its head. You will never breathe the same again.

As Almighty God and His three saints continue to watch the events that occurred in the beginning that had led to this moment, they shake their heads at Archangel Lucifer's shameful behaviour. At this point in time, the three saints are Almighty God's closest friends and, therefore, have the honour and privilege of being summoned into this majestic throne room every now and again. They have been summoned because the appointed time for Jesus's earthly ministry to begin is at hand. Because of Lord Jesus, Almighty God is looking forward to being reconciled with men and women for all eternity! As all the heavens prepare for the arrival of Jesus and the completion of God's master plan, God is ready to unveil his plan to those who are willing to listen. From the third heaven, God, Elijah, Enoch, and Moses have gathered to watch as Jesus takes his place in God's scheme to defeat Lucifer. From the creation of the earth through the fall of Satan and the temptation of Adam and Eve in the garden, The Unveiling gives a detailed look at God's destiny for mankind.
