Book excerpt: A former stripper turned suburban housewife is exposed as a brutal killer in this shocking true crime tale of a loving husband beheaded in Phoenix. Phoenix, Arizona, 2004. Marjorie Orbin filed a missing person’s report on her husband, Jay. She claimed that the successful art dealer had left town on business after celebrating their son’s birthday more than a month before. But no one believed that Jay would abandon the family he loved. Authorities suspected foul play . . . As the search for Jay made local headlines, Marjorie’s story starting coming apart. Why did she wait so long before going to police? If Jay was away on business, why were there charges made to his credit card in Phoenix? Then, the unthinkable happened. Jay’s headless, limbless torso was discovered on the outskirts of the Phoenix desert—and all evidence pointed to Marjorie as the killer. The investigation revealed surprising details about her life—six previous marriages, an ongoing affair with a man from her gym, and alleged ties to the New York mafia.

Book excerpt: ‘Be quiet and be calm, my countrymen, for what is taking place is exactly what you came to do ... Brothers, we are drilling the death drill.’ – Reverend Isaac Wauchope Dyobha Paris, 1958. A skirmish in a world-famous restaurant leaves two men dead and the restaurant staff baffled. Why did the head waiter, a man who’s been living in France for many years, lunge at his patrons with a knife? As the man awaits trial, a journalist hounds his long-time friend, hoping to expose the true story behind this unprecedented act of violence. Gradually, the extraordinary story of Pitso Motaung, a young South African who volunteered to serve with the Allies in the First World War, emerges. Through a tragic twist of fate, Pitso found himself on board the ss Mendi, a ship that sank off the Isle of Wight in February 1917. More than six hundred of his countrymen, mostly black soldiers, lost their lives in a catastrophe that official history largely forgot. One particularly cruel moment from that day will remain etched in Pitso’s mind, resurfacing decades later to devastating effect. Dancing the Death Drill recounts the life of Pitso Motaung. It is a personal and political tale that spans continents and generations, moving from the battlefields of the Boer War to the front lines in France and beyond. With a captivating blend of pathos and humour, Fred Khumalo brings to life a historical event, honouring both those who perished in the disaster and those who survived.

Book Synopsis Dancing with Mister D by : Bert Keizer

Download or read book Dancing with Mister D written by Bert Keizer. This book was released on 1997. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is potentially the most divisive issue in health care: physician-assisted suicide. When is it permissible to put an end to a life? Across the United States, doctors, patients, families, and the courts are struggling with this wrenching question. While it may not provide an answer, this remarkable book sheds new light on the problem - and offers insights to those wrestling with this dilemma." "Bert Keizer is a Dutch physician with a degree in philosophy, a probing mind resistant to cant, and a manner both sardonic and compassionate. This book is a memoir of his years at a Dutch nursing home for the terminally ill - a place that requires all his resources of humanity and will, and where gallows humor is a necessity. As euthanasia is legal in Holland, Keizer is not infrequently called upon to assist in a patient's suicide. His often surprising reflections on his role are punctuated by the moving stories of his patients' lives, his own thoughts on the absurdities and paradoxes of his profession, and the blend of cynicism and complacent conventional wisdom he hears from his colleagues."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
