In the non-fiction part, he likes to share with the world all the struggles and adversities he endured growing up as a multi racial child in a small village of the Atlantic Coast of his native Panama, in Central America. And all the difficulties he went through as he hitchhiked his way from his country to The U.S, not knowing for sure where he was going, let alone the English language. He also speaks of the government corruption that goes on in his country and many other third world countries. Which compelled him to leave home in search of a better life for him and his family. He also emphasizes a great deal of gratitude, throughout his book. But most of all, he emphasizes gratitude through the whole book.

Book Description
The Australian Government is facing a national embarrassment when two ASIS (Australian Secret Intelligence Service) agents have gone missing on the Mornington Peninsula along with top secret files, mobile telephones, and their laptops.

AFP Lead Detective Emir ‘Eddy’ Muravic under the supervision of his boss AFP Inspector Phil Morris soon discovers that the chic town of Sorrento is not just full of party goers, holiday makers, sea, and tree changers and ‘A Listers’ but an underbelly which could threaten his own family, and childhood visions of the Mornington Peninsula.
