This is the autobiography of Chief Israel Oyerinde Omotosho; an example of a single life that derives honor from all the three sources from which honor can possibly be derived. First, he was born a Prince into a Royal Family. Secondly, he had honor ascribed upon him when he was awarded the special title of J.P. (Justice of the Peace) and when the Olubadan of Ibadan honored him and his wife with a chieftaincy title each in recognition and appreciation of their service to the betterment of that great historical African city. Thirdly, he achieved honor through his own hard work and God's grace when he was honorably discharged from the army after serving his country in India in World War II, the deadliest conflict in human history. He also achieved honor by being part of the first few men that formed the Nigerian Union of Pensioners, subsequently serving as its first Secretary-General. Above all, the author is endeared to the hearts of many, mostly by his simplicity, honesty, industry and selflessness.

Kathleen is desperate to find peace after years of mental and emotional torment which lead to drug addiction, suicide attempts and several psychiatric hospitalizations. She decides to set out on a spiritual journey of transforming prayer; in the hope of discovering what has been hidden in the caverns of her mind and heart. She is always asking the questions, "What is wrong with me?" and "How can I continue to live in this state of turmoil?" Unbelievable memories of childhood trauma were exposed. Revealing child parts of her heart at different ages, that were imprisoned within the pain and anguish of her past. Now, this pain, that had been locked away, could be safely processed and healed by the power of Jesus' love. Through a loving, healing relationship encounter with Jesus, she would be set free from the lies that had invaded her heart, which in turn kept God's Truth from taking up residence in her soul. Her quest for healing leads her into a spiritual battle for God's Truth to not only be discovered, but most importantly to be believed and received as the only Truth. She must choose to resist, by God's grace, the confusion, bewilderment and perplexity, that arise from the haunting falsehoods that have captivated her soul, from a lifetime of emotional damage. This book is her pilgrimage with Jesus toward wholeness, truth and freedom. The author's hope and prayer would be, that the reader would come to an understanding, that regardless of the pain which has taken place in an individual's life, that the lies which cripple a person are held within their emotional wounds. It is only by the power and love of the cross of Jesus Christ, that one can be brought into the Truth of who they truly are and how much they are loved.

When Leslie Cheung Kwok-wing threw himself to his death from the terrace of Hong Kong's Mandarin Oriental Hotel in 2003, he was the greatest star of his generation in the city. A performer loved for his character as much as for his magic as an entertainer, his death sent shock waves across Asia and amongst Asian populations around the world. Despite the fact that he was openly gay, he was adored, and remains adored, by multitudes in societies where his sexual orientation remains a little-discussed taboo. Firelight of a Different Colour traces Leslie's story from birth in 1950s Hong Kong to his death during the city's crippling SARS epidemic. Through initial struggles to gain a foothold in TV and the nascent world of Cantopop, he achieved final success as a megastar of music and the big screen and held that position for nearly two decades. At the forefront of almost all the cultural changes Hong Kong saw during his lifetime, Leslie came to embody the unique spirit of the city. No Western performer can boast so widespread an influence across so many arts. Firelight of a Different Colour commemorates a life that continues to amaze and inspire.
