Michael Diamond's book Impasse is a daring expose of the real world order. Through the fictional tale of a man whose wartime actions torment him, Diamond illustrates how a false reality has taken over the world. The book opens to an act of terror in Palestine. A suicide bomber has detonated a bomb, destroying a busload of people. Anne Whalen, a history professor near retirement, sees the news unfold and immediately realizes her tragic involvement. Meanwhile, an ex-soldier who took part in a war crime is also jarred by the news. As his past comes back to haunt him, he is compelled to take responsibility and be tried by a court of law as the guilty party. Impasse is the story of this man, Hershel Selden, and how he tosses convention aside, breaks away from his familial connections, and, despite risk to himself, pursues what is right. The book exposes the shadowy cartel that runs this world, making puppets of us all. Most significantly, it sets forth a roadmap for defeating the global puppet masters.

'Victorian Sensation' sheds light on the Victorians' fascination with celebrity culture and their obsession with gruesome and explicit reportage of murders and sex scandals. With a vivid cast of characters, ranging from the serial poisoner William Palmer, to Charles Dickens, Jumbo the Elephant, distinguished politicians and even the Queen herself, this passionate analysis of the period reveals how the reporting methods of our own popular media have their origins in the Victorian press, and shows that sensation was as integral a part of society in the nineteenth century as it is today.
