The Dracula Dossier: A Novel of Suspense
Stalled in his writing career and feeling overwhelmed by his charismatic, successful boss Sir Henry Irving, Bram Stoker returns to London in the summer of 1888 determined to turn his life around. Late one night Stoker decides to take a stroll through the streets of Whitechapel, an impoverished district of London known for its many prostitutes as well as the citizenry crowding its shadowy alleys. Amid the shadows, he spies a seemingly familiar figure, a man resembling a quack American "doctor" of his acquaintance. But before Stoker can be certain, the man disappears. Little does he know that just a few steps away, the crime spree of the century has begun: a vicious killer has claimed his first victim, a local prostitute. And Stoker somehow becomes the prime suspect. To clear his name, he enlists some of his illustrious friends, including Walt Whitman, Lady Jane Wilde (mother of Oscar), and the million-copy-selling Victorian novelist Sir Thomas Henry Hall Caine. When they discover that the murder weapon is a Gurkha knife owned by Stoker and recently stolen from his home, there can be no doubt that the elusive American doctor—Francis Tumblety—is the very same man terrorizing and taunting London as Jack the Ripper. Moving from Manhattan to London's West End and Whitechapel, from Dublin to a ritualistic denouement in Edinburgh, this sweeping, magnificent novel is a suspenseful trip into the heart of literature and history, as Stoker sets out on the "true" adventure that will later inspire him to write Dracula. James Reese has been praised for his "sweeping narrative" (Clarion-Ledger, Jackson, MS), "vivid characters" (Washington Post Book World), and "imaginative wizardry" (Orlando Sentinel), and The Dracula Dossier is perhaps his most stunning achievement to date. .

The Hitler Book: The Secret Dossier Prepared for Stalin from the Interrogations of Otto Guensche and Heinze Linge, Hitler's Closest Personal Aides
In 1945, Josef Stalin, who had never been able to shake off the nightmare of Adolf Hitler, refused to believe that the dictator had committed suicide. He ordered his secret police, the NKVD, to explore Hitler's private life, and to clarify the circumstances of his death. For months the NKVD interrogated Hitler's two closest assistants, Otto Guensche and Heinz Linge. The resulting first-hand narrative of a decade of service in Hitler's headquarters was presented to Stalin in a limited edition of one, and for over fifty years was hidden in a Russian archive. Never before published in its entirety, it is "[a] notable historical document" ( Wall Street Journal) that "gives an absorbing, truly disturbing account of Hitler and his demonic court" ( PublishersWeekly).

If you want to be part of that positive sea of change, this book is for you. --Reader Comments The picture of Reality that Michael Sharp presented [is] so breathtakingly grand, so unbelievably comprehensive and spiritually beautiful, I said to myself that I would rather try this configuration of the truth and be wrong, than be right about anything else that I had ever come across --Kelley Gardener Thank you, Michael. I have read your first two books and have just ordered two more. Having been "on the Path" for many years (since the early 70's), these books put everything together for me like no other information I have come across. And, trust me, I have read hundreds of books. --Jeweline B. I just finished THE BOOK OF LIFE, DOSSIER OF THE ASCENSION, and THE SONG OF CREATION. What an extraordinary contribution youÂ’ve made to the enlightenment of our little species! These are the best spiritual books IÂ’ve read since YoganandaÂ’s commentary on the Gita. --William T. Hathaway - Author of Summer Snow From the site, I downloaded free e-books, and then bought two e-books for $1.99 each at Amazon.com. It was a fascinating read, and to be honest, the best-ever return on investment of less than four bucks. They were the most inspiring and helpful books I've ever read in my entire life, bar none.... --Hak from Korea --I have finished your Dossier book and can I say "WOW!" It's been about 3 weeks and I have been on the most life changing ride. I began immediately, even while reading the book, to do the invocation and POW, just like that opportunities for me to face and deal with the fears that were keeping me from fully utilizing my power flowed to me one after another....I began seeing those fears for exactly what they were and once I spoke them out loud and began processing them, they were able to be released.... I became really ill, and that too was another opportunity.... I really feel reborn!!! --Cheryl Titterington --Since reading the Dossier of Ascension, The Book of Light and the Book of Life as well as a few more of your publications, ALL of my relationships have improved tremendously. I thought my relationships were pretty good until I learned the truth about our creation. Words alone simply can not express my gratitude for dramatically improving the quality of my life (and those around me). My lifelong goal is to follow your example in order to assist others in the ascension process and to assist them with acknowledging their unlimited potential! I could go on and on about the "miracles" in my life. Thank you for giving me just what I needed at this perfect "moment in time". --Amy (elementary school principle).

The Miernik Dossier
"Charles McCarry is the best modern writer on the subject of intrigue," wrote P.J. O'Rourke and Time Magazine has declared that "there is no better American spy novelist." McCarry's first book, The Miernik Dossier, originally published in 1973, is a riveting and imaginative tale in which a small group of international agents embark on a car trip in a Cadillac, from Switzerland to the Sudan. Related as a collection of dossier notes written by the five characters, the novel reveals a complicated web in which each spins his or her own deception: each is a spider, and each is a spy...and the Miernik Dossier is a thorough-going masterpiece..
