Languages : en
Pages : 127
Book Description
It has been stated that human beings use roughly 10% of our brain capacity according to science. Given all of humanitys major technological and other space-age advances, you would surmise that we are a very powerful species with limitless potential and possibilities. However our digital marvels, havent kept mankind back from the edge of destruction. Or from barely holding on to a fragile thread of existence. Yet since the very beginning of recorded history, we have struggled with some of the most basic questions: Who are we? What are we? Where did we come from? Where are we headed after life and death? For centuries we have existed in a state of loss of identity. Not knowing who we really are, has generated endless scientific, cultural, racial and religious confusion. So where can we turn to overcome this endless confusion? The #1 Image Maker is a road map, a runway for takeoff, and a GPS to guide us to the ultimate and absolute questions in life and their answers. Why are we here? Why do we exist? And why do we have such intelligence, talents, and abilities that separate us from the rest of creation? Author Keith E. Echols delivers a powerful message for all of us, and he shows us how to recapture our lost and stolen identities and embrace The Image Makers purpose. His inspired wisdom is simple, yet profoundly clear to be unstoppable, live on purpose and with power.

Book Description
HIS NAME IS DANTE. Dark. Talented. Beautiful. Star of the rock band Inferno. Rumored owner of the hot New Orleans nightspot Club Hell. Born of the Blood, then broken by an evil beyond imagination. HIS PAST IS A MYSTERY. F.B.I. Special Agent Heather Wallace has been tracking a sadistic serial murderer known as the Cross Country Killer, and the trail has led her to New Orleans, Club Hell, and Dante. But the dangerously attractive musician not only resists her investigation, he claims to be "nightkind": in other words, a vampire. Digging into his past for answers reveals little. A juvenile record a mile long. No social security number. No known birth date. In and out of foster homes for most of his life before being taken in by a man named Lucien DeNoir, who appears to guard mysteries of his own. HIS FUTURE IS CHAOS. What Heather does know about Dante is that something links him to the killer -- and she's pretty sure that link makes him the CCK's next target. Heather must unravel the truth about this sensual, complicated, vulnerable young man -- who, she begins to believe, may indeed be a vampire -- in order to finally bring a killer to justice. But Dante's past holds a shocking, dangerous secret, and once it is revealed not even Heather will be able to protect him from his destiny....
