This volume of The Dark Corners is not unlike the previous three. As with the others, you will find information here not found anywhere else. This volume is slightly different though, with much attention given to what I consider leftovers and loose ends. I have also addressed some additional aspects of the Lindbergh kidnapping in which many have expressed interest. This includes a chapter on the "e;spy"e; Jacob Nosovitsky and one on Violet Sharp, a topic that I have avoided-until now.

An Italian shipbuilding magnate and a prostitute are found dead beside each other in the bedroom of a luxurious mansion at a famous resort in Bali. A hidden security camera shows the only other person to enter that room was the victim's ex-wife, the resort manager. When the police discover she volunteered to help room service at the last minute and delivered the food, which the autopsy confirmed contained the poison which killed them, she moves to the top of the suspect list. As if to put a cherry on their case, the police find a bottle of that poison in her purse. Turning to the only person she believes can help, the accused murderess asks Gunter Wayan, a disgraced former police detective turned private investigator, to take the case. Believing it to be a waste of time, given the pile of evidence against her, he grudgingly accepts. However, as he delves further into the evidence, he finds that perception is not reality.

It first set the airwaves afire in 1928: 100,000 megawatts of raw, unregulated flamethrower power from south of the Rio Grande. Founded by a quack surgeon, it endured assaults by the Mexican army, launched the careers of evangelists and movie stars, and helped a cultural menace called rock'n'roll seduce the teenagers of North America. But in the summer of 1985, XAMO 1530 AM radio is a ramshackle, low-voltage shadow of its "e;border blaster"e; heyday. That is, until an enigmatic runaway variously dubbing himself Mark Knopfler, Charlie Sexton, "e;Strummer,"e; and Asher Rede arrives in Anapra, Mexico, with clandestine plans for righting an old wrong, and falls for an XAMO disc jockey whose own haunted past is about to collide memorably-and musically-with the present.

They leave the shrine without regret,But they will long remember when,They came to cleanse their darkened souls,And they shall not return again.

1 Corinthians 4:14 "e;I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you. For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you though the gospel. Wherefore I beseech you be ye followers of me"e;. It is great to have many instructors, but you do not have many fathers. Fathers make themselves available. Instructors want to come and instruct you, teach you and leave town. Men that have the spirit of the Father on them will sit and talk with you a while. Do you remember the word of God when God took the Spirit of Moses and dropped it on seventy men who never prophesied and never counselled suddenly found that they were prophesying and leading the people because God took the spirit that was in Moses and put it upon them? There is a need to embrace, or to grab hold of certain realms of this "e;Spirit of the Father"e; anointing that releases certain elements of breakthrough and insights into our lives.
