Book Description
“Reading Nanaimo Girl is like enjoying a martini or three with Auntie Mame. The stories are colourful, global, boozy and just cheeky enough to make you envious — and at the same time a little concerned.” — Dana Gee, Vancouver Sun Born in Nanaimo, British Columbia in the 1930s, Prudence Emery was expected to do the right things, but shattered family expectations by going to art school in London, England, where studies sometimes took a back seat to partying. And then she found herself in the world of celebrities. From Expo 67 in Montreal to the press office at London's Savoy Hotel, Prudence met the likes of Twiggy, Noël Coward, Louis Armstrong, Petula Clark, Liza Minelli, and Edward Albee. She escorted David Frost to an interview with Sheikh Mujibar Rahman and arranged for Pierre Trudeau to attend a party where he met Barbra Streisand for the first time. It was a world so rich with stories that the Canadian Press wrote, "If ever a job was tailor-made for a book of memoirs, Prudence Emery has it." But it was just the beginning. A new career as a film publicist spanned decades and introduced her to some of Hollywood's biggest names, from Sophia Loren to Jennifer Lopez, from Peter O'Toole to Matt Damon. She worked with Nicolas Cage when he was a nervous teenager and later when he was an outgoing superstar. And she was a frequent colleague of famed director David Cronenberg. Nanaimo Girl is the story of a life well lived and an encouragement to all, young and old, to get out, defy expectations, and have a rip-roaring good time.

Book Description
Trevor McCowen lives a complicated life. A successful financial planner by day, he trains with law enforcement and works armed security nights and weekends-nothing too dangerous, just some wild fun and a couple of stories to tell... That is, until the son of a longtime client unwittingly launders money for an international drug dealer, pulling a reluctant Trevor into a complex web of post-9/11 federal bureaucracy and high-stakes operations. As the pressure mounts, Trevor works "close follows," investigates petty crimes, and engages in hardcore tactical exercises... All while navigating life with his wife and two daughters, daily pressure from his bosses in the financial planning Home Office, and an aggressive group of federal agents and drug dealers until he's forced to apply his tactical training to the life and death situation in which he ultimately finds himself. Trevor McCowen... an atypical hero just ordinary enough to be dangerous. Doug Emery has run a successful investment planning company for thirty-plus years. He and his wife Melissa live on their farm in northeast Ohio where Douglas has spent a lifetime raising sheep, running bird dogs, hunting, and shooting skeet, long-range rifle, and doing Combative Tactical Firearms Training. He works security through Belltower International, holding a Class A license in investigation and security. Doug is the founder and president of North Coast Peace Officer Training Foundation (NCPOTF.org), a not-for-profit law enforcement training company, providing training at no cost to the officer or their agency.
