How do the four relationships differ? What effect does a polygamous upbringing have on their children? What are the challenges--emotional, social, or financial--involved in living this lifestyle? Is it possible for all four sister wives to feel special when sharing a husband? How has being on camera changed their lives? And what is it like to add a new wife to the family--or to be that new wife? Filled with humor, warmth, surprising insights, and remarkable honesty, theirs is a love story at heart, unconventional but immediately recognizable in the daily moments of trust, acceptance, forgiveness, passion, and commitment that go into making one big, happy, extraordinary family.

Greatly disappointed with his life, he took an overdose of expired drugs to end what he believed was a pathetic exsistence. Four days later he emerged from a comatose state. His ex-wife came knocking on his door one hour later bearing gifts, a new lease on life......money and lots of it

Before lunch was over Bono Shadoni was sucked into one of the most amazing, intriguing and bizarre con-games ever conceived. This game, offered by the Queen Bee herself, was so sweet that the idea of being a willing drone in the hive gave him immeasurable joy.

However, Bono didn't count on deception and countless murders as part of the deal. Nor did he expect to travel across three continents before grasping the sheer enormity of the scam...his country was being swallowed in a swirling vortex of greed, deceit and the worst kind of mayhem.

With his suspicions heightened, he begins his own investigation, enlisting along the way a Scotland Yard Sleuth, A Cabdriver and two very capable ladies. Soon the crew will fight a thousand battles of wit and raw skill. They will match strategies with an organized, complex, group of criminals and mischief makers. They will tangle with men sworn to the single act of protecting their financial empire by any means necessary.

Shira thought she knew everything and had it all: a comfortable life, her loving parents and their unique family business, pleasant, engaging lifelong friends, the joy of her faith, the community of her synagogue, and the love of G-d. No danger, no hardships, and certainly no nagging questions about the "why" of it all. Is that so wrong? What could be missing? Ah, there was no adventure, no lure of the unknown, no romance. This last part was a problem for Shira's mother, Miriam. Certainly, there was very little sex. And then along came Avram: full of charisma, enigmatic, and definitely the sexiest, most alluring man she had ever encountered. One mesmerizing touch of his hand and she was undone. Completely, utterly, irrevocably. Little did she comprehend at that electrifying moment that the timeline of her placid and insignificant existence would soon spin out-of-control and turn on the proverbial dime. How could she have foreseen that this one small act would propel her into the juxtaposition of time and history, mortality and immortality, G-d and science? The upshot of which she reluctantly comes to discover, is that all of these are not necessarily mutually exclusive. This mysterious man becomes a catalyst for Shira's self-discovery, engaging her in a topsy-turvy, rollercoaster of a ride spanning the history of her people and ultimately causing her to question everything she thought she knew about G-d, the order of the universe, and her place in it. Like the stone in David's slingshot, she is catapulted along within the great pendulum of time, flung into the past, exposed to the seamier side of death, and thrown into the tawdry, violent underbelly of the undead. All because of Avram and his kind. This chance meeting...or was it chance? Was there a master hand at work, giving new meaning to the expression "blood sacrifice"? G-d help her. Don't worry; He's planning on it. Nu, you don't have to be Jewish to understand. But it couldn't hoit. Eh, it's up to you.
