In 1997, George Henderson, who was staying in a homeless shelter, asked for the help of author, Dr. Bonnie Clark Douglass. George's brother Paul Henderson, who was nicknamed "Poncho," was only 17 when he went missing on Halloween night. Poncho's lifeless body was found a couple of weeks later on Nov. 14th, 1981, at the end of the catwalk under the Centennial Bridge in Miramichi City. Poncho's sneakers were found neatly placed, side by side, atop a pillar approximately 50 yards from the body; not one police report retrieved mentions this fact. George refused to "live with it," after the family was told Poncho fell off the bridge, and that was not what the Pathologist's report concluded. "I'd say he was beaten. When a person falls, you expect to see trademark injuries, especially to the hands and face." Sheriff Pollard said that if he did not know better, he would guess that someone put Poncho on a rack and stretched him. (Telegraph Journal, February 6, 1999, Calvin Pollard, with 25 years combined experience as a sheriff and coroner). George and Dr. Bonnie dug up every piece of information they could find. This included old RCMP records retrieved from the New Brunswick Archives, and news articles from 1981. A comprehensive written report was submitted to the N.B. RCMP Major Crime Unit and, in 1999, the RCMP announced that the case was being opened. After George's violent death in 2007, Dr. Bonnie knew that one day she had to tell George's story, because of his tenacity and courage in the face of a system that seemed dead against him. George remained the eye of the storm, no matter what he came up against. After starting a Facebook site, miraculously, 10 pages of tips came in. The truth about that fateful night and what happened on the catwalk began to unravel. Who would ever believe how the truth surfaced because of social media? A loyal group of people, who ravaged the storm and fought to honor George's vow for justice, are revealed in the story.

Poignant and profoundly personal, What's Next? A Search for Hope, is the narrative of a journey and the search for hope in the depths of despair. Diagnosed with malignant melanoma seven weeks after marrying Bonnie, "Pastor" George Priest shows faith and dignity with death. This is his story of strength and courage. The combination of George's superior faith and Bonnie's medical background led to the story that recounts their quest for a cure and constant search for hope. Personal conversations between George and Bonnie bring to light the differences between religion and finding a true relationship with God, which both express the key to finding one's true purpose and potential. The couples' medical experience is educational with an emphasis on prevention, detection, and treatment of malignant melanoma. The support of an expert team of physicians and staff, who specialize in melanoma, helped equip the couple for the battle that was ahead. The grief cycle is explained and reiterates the value of having a palliative care team when making end of life decisions. The compassionate physicians and team members helped the couple move through the grief of a terminal illness. The help of hospice and social workers in dealing with terminal illness was invaluable to their process. Surrounded by a loving family, relatives, and friends, along with continual spiritual support gave George and Bonnie a sense of security and hope, even when they accepted the outcome was imminent. .
