In February 2006, four faces appear to Victor Hannah carved out of the storm clouds above his home in the tiny historic town of Annapolis, Maryland. The experience entangles him in a murder mystery involving the occult of the modern Western world and the traditional witch doctors of Africa. The murders involve several Western billionaires who all inexplicably die after returning home from overseas business trips. Victor's curiosity leads him to seek advice from a renowned psychic in Washington DC, who in turn introduces him to Jana Gordon, the beautiful daughter of one of the deceased men. Jana is determined to bring those responsible for the murders of her father and the other financiers to justice. The search for the cause of the mysterious deaths takes Victor, Jana, and her two undercover private detectives to the African country of Zimbabwe. There they are confronted with the dangers of the powerful magic of African witchcraft and a strange, evil creature that has been conjured to oppose them. Victor and Jana find evidence that links the murders to the legend of Chief Lobengula's hidden treasure of diamonds. But will they be able to capture those responsible and put an end to the evil scheme?

This is a book about sexual morality. Not a morality based on shame or tradition, however; but one based on combining the most up-to-date findings of sex researchers, with the most ancient teachings of the Judeo-Christian Bible. In this book, you will find that: Private masturbation and public nudity are the two Pillars, upon which all healthy attitudes towards Sex must be based. Faithful heterosexual monogamy is God's Plan for Sex, but a minority who deviate from this Plan (such as homosexuals) are nonetheless necessary for a whole society. And that Virgin Sex for young adults - which means enjoying sex play while rejecting intercourse - is the Key to: true romantic passion, equality between the sexes, and even to the very Future of Humanity. At last! A book that tells the truth about Sex and God.

The greatest films from 1914, when The Squaw Man and The Virginian were among the genre's best, through 2001, when American Outlaws and Texas Rangers were tops, are the subject of this work. For each year, the author names the outstanding western films in the following categories: picture, screenplay (original and adaptation), direction, cinematography, music, male and female leading roles, and male and female supporting roles. Also for each year, the author lists the westerns that received Academy Award nominations (and those that won), makes note of the births and deaths of notable actors, directors, producers, composers, cinematographers, authors and other such personalities, and describes the genre's significant achievements.
