Sacred Games

It is the Olympics of 460 BC. Nico's best friend, Timodemus, is a competitor in the pankration, the deadly martial art of ancient Greece. Timo is the hot favorite to win. His only serious rival is Parmonos, from Sparta. When Parmonos is found beaten to death, it is obvious Timodemus must be the killer. The Judges of the Games sentence Timodemus to be executed in four days' time. Complicating everything is the fact that Athens and Sparta are already at each other's throats. If an Athenian is found to have cheated by murdering a Spartan, it will be everything the hawks in Sparta need to declare open war.

When ex-cop Matt Scudder thought back on the summer of '75, two faces emerged from behind the smoky haze of a half dozen boozy saloons that made up his beat - Skip Devoe and Tommy Tillary - two bar flies he wouldn't have given a second thought to in the bright light of day. Yet they and their troubles were the reason that moved him a little farther out of the bleary-eyed mess that had become his life.

Extreme physical effort, especially when coupled with risk and deprivation, has been known to produce strong effects in people.

Bone Games is the story of Rob Schultheis' exploration of this strange terrain - the altered states of consciousness that can be an elusive product of extreme sports.

Women have a secret set of powers when it comes to manifesting. I realized women are the original portals for manifesting. A spirit comes from another reality, lives in a woman's body, and then becomes a physical reality. With that, comes codes for manifesting that are written into the DNA of our bodies. These codes are not known by most women because, for many years women have been discriminated against and weren’t granted as many rights as men. Neither in the financial field, politics, nor in the family’s decision-making arena.
