The Arx

About The Arx

Ex-Homicide Detective Frank Langer is a broken man – but he’s all that stands in the way of a deadly conspiracy.

Since a mental breakdown put him on medical leave from the squad he was once hand-picked to lead, Frank spends his days drinking and chain-smoking, and his nights waking up screaming from a horrific recurring nightmare.

Then one day, by chance, he stumbles on a monstrous plot to kidnap children.

When he shows up at the squad with his wild story, the guys pat him on the back and tell him to go home. But after the mother of one of the missing children commits suicide, Frank stamps down his demons, and together with the dead woman’s sister Rebecca, plunges into the case.

He uncovers a shadowy entity lurking behind one of the richest and most powerful Pharma corporations in the world. When he finally unravels the mystery, the truth is more bizarre and deadly than he ever imagined, and telling Rebecca would put her life in danger. Soon even she comes to question his sanity.

Frank has to warn the world of the danger. But can he stay alive long enough to find someone to buy his story?

About By the Shores of Solon Pond by Adrienne Morris

A Journey From Boyhood Innocence to War-Weary Self-Understanding and Hope

An epic tale of heroism, sacrifice, and family devotion

Farm boy Waldo Potter strives to save his father’s impoverished upstate New York acreage as drums of war beat. When his Uncle Charles takes him under his wing, Waldo must navigate family resentments and tragic twists of fate at home and at the seat of war. By the Shores of Solon Pond captures the joys and hardships of rural life and is a tribute to America’s rural heritage, but, most of all, it is a tribute to one young man’s sacrificial love for his family.

From the outset, Waldo suffers, under the yoke of his sad family, a kind of entrapment in a life of struggle and impossible challenges, caused mainly by the sloth of Waldo’s father. Of all the farms in the vicinity, his is the saddest and least productive even though he has three sons and a devoted wife.

After many failures and humiliations, Waldo is quick to join the army to fight in the Civil War, getting a shocking view of the wider world and a new perspective on his family and their situation in this poignant coming-of-age novel.

Emotional Beauty and the Limits of Human Intelligence by Thomas L. Atwood

About Emotional Beauty and the Limits of Human Intelligence by Thomas L. Atwood

Emotional Beauty and the Limits of Human Intelligence dissects our kinship with animals and what constitutes intelligence, showing our self-knowledge in an entirely new light.

Human intelligence is all we need to be able to cure cancer, colonize Mars and establish peace and prosperity for all. But what happens when it feels better to behave impulsively, emotionally instead of using our smarts? Finding the motivation to cure cancer is hard for someone specializing in partying, watching sports or playing video games.

Animal behavior is largely guided by emotion. We inherited our emotional foundation from our distant evolutionary ancestors. But our more recent ancestors developed a brave new means of controlling our behavior—a high level of intelligence. So now we have two separate sources of behavioral control? If your behavior is like a car being operated by two different drivers, what are the odds it won’t end up in a ditch? If this situation isn’t bad enough, we’re having so many little problems – like making correct change or forgetting to set the alarm – that we are busily inventing artificial intelligence to do our thinking for us.

So here we are, relying on our occasionally useful intelligence to prevent nuclear wars, snuff out deadly pandemics, and forestall potentially catastrophic climate change. With serious problems like these, isn’t it about time we took a close look at whether humans are really up to these tasks? In Emotional Beauty and the Limits of Human Intelligence, Dr.Thomas Atwood takes a fresh new look why you feel the way you do and do the things you do, and what you and all the rest of us ought to do about it.

A Knock in the Attic by John Russell

A Knock in the Attic by John Russell

A Knock in the Attic—my second award-winning book—is, as Uri Geller stated, “a fascinating true story of incredible psychic experiences.”

In these entertaining and adventure filled stories I’ll tell you what it was like to grow up with a powerful and accurate psychic gift that sometimes spooked the adults around me, leaving them bug-eyed and slack-jawed; and I’ll relate some of the emotions I experienced while encountering hair-raising visitations from ghosts on a regular basis.

I’ll share with you the times when my own Guardian Angels not only protected me from physical harm but when they also literally saved my life with a belated Christmas Miracle, to the astonishment of others who said I had lived through the impossible.

Travel with me to Roswell where I have my very own “‘UFO’ encounter” at the Roswell UFO Museum, an encounter that validated the fact that the Roswell UFO crash was a real event and also explained why many witnesses to UFOs are reluctant to come forward.

Plus: I’ll tell you what it was like to meet Uri Geller; give you a behind-the-scenes look at filming the TV pilot for The History Channel; take you along with me to a haunted horse barn; and then…what was that knocking in the attic…?

You’ll enjoy more than a few spine-tingling moments as you join me to experience these astonishing true stories of the unknown…these are incredible paranormal events that you will not soon forget.

Walks Through Memories of Oblivion by Fernando A. Torres

About Walks Through Memories of Oblivion by Fernando A. Torres

A collection of short stories; a creative none-fiction narrative based on true events. Situations, rescued from my memory when I was arrested at eighteen years of age, during the military regime that overthrew democracy and established a brutal dictatorship (1973-90) in Chile, my homeland. Although this collection has as a backdrop, a critical political event, the stories are not about politics. These stories are personal; the flesh and bones behind the young and restless student that I was once; about how this young man faces prison and the experiences among other political and common prisoners. More than 30 stories ranging from my arrest until my expulsion into exile. In some of them I describe the mental disorders: how sanity finds its limits in confinement; the paradoxical everyday life inside the prison; others tell the horror of torture and death, another is the story of a woman, my mother, searching for her missing son. I also have a couple of stories about my exile in Berkeley, California. There is a good game of dark humor and tales of subtle and small victories of the human endurance and perseverance. The stories touch well-timed social justice issues and themes relevant to those readers interested in Latin America’s so-called magical realism, psychology of the victims of political repression, solidarity movements, or for general readers interested in a good story with an unpredictable end.
