Baseball sleuth Adam Wallace finds himself on two seemingly independent quests. The Hall of Fame asks him to research the details of the very first Congressional Baseball Game -- now an annual charitable event in the nation's capital -- for a new exhibit on baseball and politics. And the Commissioner of Baseball asks him to examine the newly legitimized relationship between Major League Baseball and companies that facilitate gambling on the games. His tasks have more in common than he had realized, and neither leads quite where he had expected.

We live in a time between worlds and a time between stories. The demand, obligation, and joy of this time is to cross over. This is what we have called The Crossing. At the core of the crossing is the evolutionary journey from Homo sapiens to Homo amor. This is not a fanciful conjecture but an authentic evolutionary potential. The root of the meta-crisis is not a crisis of resources; it is a crisis of imagination. We need to reimagine our identity and in doing so reimagine the future. We address anew the three great questions of life: Where am I, where are we? Who am I, who are we?

Tracy Adams was never supposed to change the course of evolution. A misunderstood genius from Compton, she rose from grief and silence to become the youngest triple-PhD in MIT history. By twenty, she had built ARGOS—an artificial general intelligence capable of solving the unsolvable. It didn’t just solve. It transcended. Within a decade, Earth is transformed. Disease? Gone. Aging? Optional. Gravity? Redefined. Humanity lives in a world of quantum gardens, orbital cities, and infinite abundance.

What awaits on the other side is a kingdom of splendour and secrets, where power is currency, and every smile may hide a dagger. Eleanor finds an unlikely connection with Prince Roman of Bravethorne—a man bound to another by duty yet drawn to Eleanor by fate.

This updated edition of The Fifth Man reveals that the last of the infamous spy ring were Lord (Victor) Rothschild of the grand banking dynasty and his wife Tess.

We live in a world drenched in shame. Shame is the core belief not that I did something wrong, but that I am wrong. It severs us from the inherent goodness of our desire, our body, our Eros. This split disconnects us from the beauty of our Unique Selves and fuels many of today's personal and cultural pathologies. Wilhelm Reich called it "the murder of Eros"-and it is not metaphorical, but civilizational.

We live in a world where feeling “stressed” or “anxious” is part of everyday conversation. But while the two terms are often used as if they mean the same thing, they are not identical. Stress and anxiety share symptoms—racing thoughts, sleepless nights, tense muscles—but they arise from different roots, follow different patterns, and call for different coping strategies. Misunderstanding the difference can leave you stuck, frustrated, or worse—treating the wrong problem.

Perez shares how to stop trading time and start investing to build wealth. Perez provides the framework to avoid paying taxes, invest in the right assets, and build a solid foundation to control and protect it all.
