Murder at Roaringwater is the inside story of the final days of
young Frenchwoman, Sophie Toscan du Plantier. This is a violent,
unresolved murder, where the victim seemed to have a premonition of
her own terrible end. For six years, Nick Foster has been piecing
together the life and death of Sophie, who was brutally killed
outside her cottage in rural West Cork in 1996. He also developed
an ongoing 'friendship' with the Englishman long-suspected of her
murder, Ian Bailey, and his partner, Jules, the couple at the
centre of the case. This story is as fascinating as it is tragic.
It follows Nick in Paris and Ireland during his dedicated
investigation into the circumstances surrounding Sophie's murder,
his quest to reveal her killer and efforts to understand what the
motive could have been for such a terrible crime. Ian Bailey was
recently found guilty of Sophie's murder 'in absentia' in a French
courtroom.
Why and How I Wrote This Book Like many of you I wanted to read the
Bible from cover to cover. I did it on a yearly plan, reading so
many verses each night. After the year was up I was done, a big
accomplishment, right? There was one problem: I forgot what I had
read. This was not the result I wanted. So I read it again, but
this time I wrote the verses that were important to me on 3x5
cards. I had a total of approximately 50 cards. These verses became
a part of me as I would read them over and over and became "My
Foundation of Life." They have helped me, but just as importantly
have helped the person I'm dedicating the book to: Lenka. Tracy. It
was her suggestion that I put them in a book so that they could
help others as she had been helped by them. The verses you are
about to read are from the "New American Standard Bible" and the
"King James" versions The verses that I gave to Lenka weren't in
any particular order and were paraphrased. These verses helped me
and Lenka. My hope is that they will help you too.. My faith is
Catholic, but I was born a Lutheran and was raised Baptist. I
comment and make observations on several of these verses These
comments may or may not help you. It is my perspective. Yours may
be different. The Bible is very important in my life. I hope it is
important in your life too, but if not maybe it can become so.
