'Until You Are Dead': The Wrongful Conviction of Steven Truscott
“Talk to anyone you find, investigate wherever things lead you. I know I'm innocent and I’m not afraid of what you’ll turn up.” — Steven Truscott to Julian Sher “Until You Are Dead” chronicles the loss of Canada’s innocence. Prior to June 11, 1959, Canadian parents could allow their children to play outdoors, unsupervised, in places children traditionally love: schoolyards, fields and nearby swimming holes. But on that hot summer day, when the body of a twelve-year-old girl turned up in a woody area near Clinton, Ontario, that innocence was shattered. The girl’s name was Lynne Harper and she had been raped and murdered. The summer was barely over before a popular schoolboy named Steven Truscott, fourteen years old at the time, was tried, convicted and sentenced to hang. Truscott spent ten years in prison after the federal cabinet commuted his death sentence. He has always maintained his innocence. His trial in 1959 was the most famous and controversial in Canadian history. As a producer at CBC TV’s the fifth estate, Julian Sher spent two years investigating the Steven Truscott story for an explosive documentary. When it aired in the spring of 2000, more than 1.4 million Canadians watched the program that sparked headlines across the country and questions in Parliament. Now, in this gripping and shocking account, Sher gives us the full story of that investigation, including new material not revealed on television. From the news that a young girl had gone missing in 1959 to the efforts four decades later by lawyers — those who assisted Guy Paul Morin and others — preparing an application to the federal justice minister for a verdict of wrongful conviction, this is a thorough and chilling examination of the case that rocked the country, and the man who continues to reside at its centre. When Steven Truscott decided to come out of hiding and tell his story to the fifth estate, there were no deals, no commitments, no promises. If Sher and the fifth estate were to investigate one of Canada’s most controversial murder cases, they had to have unfettered access. Truscott readily agreed. "Until You Are Dead” reveals witnesses not called upon to testify; other, more likely suspects, including a known pedophile, never questioned; and important leads that were kept from the defence, the judge and jurors. Boxes of police files and military records hidden or buried in government vaults reveal astonishing and disturbing information about an investigation and trial the authorities always claimed was above reproach. All told, the book uncovers a wealth of information that could have lead to a different verdict and a very different life for the young boy who was nearly executed over forty years ago.

PJ Manney concludes her visionary Philip K. Dick Award–nominated series of a world at war, a virtual search for identity, and the future of humanity. Five years ago, bioengineer Peter Bernhardt spearheaded an innovation in nanotechnology that changed the course of evolution. Until everything was taken from him—his research, the people he loved, and finally his life. Uploaded as an artificial intelligence, Peter is alive again thanks to a critical reactivation by fellow AI Carter Potsdam. But a third sentient computer program, Major Tom, is tearing the United States apart, destroying its leaders and its cities. Major Tom’s mission: rebuild a new America from the ruins and reign as uncontested monarch. Carter knows that only a revolutionary like Peter can reverse the damage to a country set on fire. Caught in a virtual world between an alleged ally and an enemy, pieces of Peter’s former self remain: the need for vengeance, empathy for the subjugated people of a derelict world, and doubt in everything he’s been led to believe. To rescue what’s left, he’ll need to once again advance the notion of evolution and to expand the meaning of being human—by saving humanity.

PJ Manney continues her action-packed, thought-provoking science-fiction series with the sequel to the Philip K. Dick Award-nominated (R)evolution. In the guise of political revolutionary Thomas Paine, bioengineer Peter Bernhardt brought down the corrupt and powerful Phoenix Club-and then turned revolution into evolution by becoming the first artificial human intelligence: Major Tom. In the two years since Major Tom revealed his digital existence and spread his freedom manifesto, he has been revered as a god and vilified as a demon. The United States and Europe have splintered into ideologically independent regions. Russia and China prepare to expand their empires. In the midst of the chaos, pirates attack a seastead in the Pacific Ocean, capturing one of Major Tom's allies. A mysterious and powerful group wages a secret war. To rescue his ally, Major Tom must first regain his own humanity and somehow save a species he no longer identifies with, and which seems determined to destroy itself.

... denn sterben muss David! - Historischer Kriminalroman (Ungekürzt)
Brilliante Mischung aus Historienkrimi und Eifelkrimi! Im Jahr 800 nach Christus dringt nur selten etwas von der großen Reichspolitik bis in die kleinen Dörfer in der Eifel, dem kargen Landstrich im Süden der Kaiserpfalz Aachen. Als das Gehöft von Ennos Zieheltern überfallen und sein Onkel, seine Tante und ein durchreisender Bote von fremden Reitern getötet werden, fällt der Verdacht auf Enno, den ungeliebten Neffen, von dem man glaubt, dass er es auf das Erbe abgesehen hat. Niemand ahnt, dass der Überfall zur Vorbereitung eines teuflischen Plans dient, der den frisch gekrönten Kaiser Karl das Leben kosten soll. Enno kann fliehen und macht sich nun auf eigene Faust auf die Suche nach den Mördern. Eine geheimnisvolle Handschrift weist ihm dabei den Weg. Die Spur führt in die Stadt Aachen, in eine fremde Welt, an den Hof des Kaisers. Enno weiß nicht, wer die Verschwörer sind und welchen Hass sie gegen den Herrscher hegen, er kennt nur ihre Losung: '. denn sterben muss David!' 'Spätestens in diesem Buch hat Ralf Kramp bewiesen, dass er der wahre Meister des Eifelkrimis ist. Wesentlich vielfältiger und breiter als beim allseits hoch gelobten Jacques Berndorf ist Kramps Spektrum an spannungsreichen Kriminalgeschichten aus der Eifel. Nun scheut er nicht einmal vor einer Zeitreise zurück, bei der Karl der Große Opfer eines Anschlags werden soll.' - Kunde bei Amazon Geboren am 29. November 1963 in Euskirchen, lebt Ralf Kramp heute in Üdersdorf in der Vulkaneifel. Sein erster Kurzkrimi erschien 1994 im Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger, und sein erster Kriminalroman zwei Jahre später. Für sein Debüt 'Tief unterm Laub' erhielt er den Förderpreis des Eifel-Literaturfestivals. Seither erschienen mehrere Kriminalromane, unter anderem auch die Reihe um den kauzigen Helden Herbie Feldmann und seinen unsichtbaren Begleiter Julius, die mittlerweile deutschlandweit eine große Fangemeinde hat. Seit 1998 veranstaltet er mit großem Erfolg unter dem Titel 'Blutspur' Krimiwochenenden in der Eifel, bei denen hartgesottene Krimifans ihr angelesenes 'Fachwissen' endlich bei einer Live-Mördersuche in die Tat umsetzen können. Mit den 'Abendgrauen - Gruselnächten' hat er mit seinem Mitherausgeber Manfred Lang eine Reihe von publikumswirksamen Lesenächten mit Schauerinszenierungen an ungewöhnlichen Leseorten in der Eifel ins Leben gerufen, die mittlerweile Kultstatus haben. Im Jahr 2002 erhielt er den Kulturpreis des Kreises Euskirchen.
