Brilliant detective Sam Spade is the quintessential private eye, with his own code of ethics. When a standard stakeout goes wrong and Spade’s partner is killed, he finds himself drawn into the hunt for a fantastic treasure of dubious origin—a golden bird encrusted with jewels. But he’s not the only one on the trail of the falcon. Hot on his heels are Joel Cairo, a perfumed grifter; an oversized adventurer named Gutman; and Spade’s new client Brigid O’Shaughnessy, a beautiful but treacherous woman whose loyalties shift at the drop of a hat.

This is a definitive book explaining and teaching the presence of angels in the world and their work in our personal lives today. It includes sound foundational biblical teaching as well as documented testimonies of angelic activity in today's world in ministries, churches, and personal lives.

With narcissistic tactics like gaslighting, love bombing, isolation, neglect, exploitation, passive aggression, manipulation, emotional abuse and others being dished out 24/7 with complete lack of empathy, having any ounce of self-esteem and confidence left when you have a narcissist in your life is nearly impossible. But it is not your fault so don’t feel bad about your situation; narcissists pre-select the people they dish their covert tactics on and groom their victims without their knowledge. But this doesn’t mean you can’t do anything about your situation.
