Book Description
William Shepherd ("Billy Shears") took over The Beatles and the McCartney estate on 16 September 1966, going from "Billy Pepper" of Billy Pepper and the Pepper Pots, to The Beatles' new "Sgt. Pepper" of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Taking creative control of the band from John made William "the new boss," saving the band, but tormenting all involved. The Memoirs is the source of the "Paul is Dead" material reprinted in Billy's Back! and of the insights in Beatles Enlightenment, but also includes the darker aspects: Paulism, Satanism, and Biblical humor--calling The Beatles the four-headed 666 Beast. The Memoirs is the first fully encoded full-length book. As part of that encoding, it contains the world's largest acrostic, and is the world's premier of word-stacking. By reading The Memoirs, you will learn the secret meanings of their songs, and will recognize Paul and William's distinct physical differences, personality differences, and vast differences in musical skills.

Book Description
Maine game warden Mike Bowditch finds himself in a life-or-death chase in this next thriller in the bestselling series by Edgar Award nominee Paul Doiron, Dead by Dawn. Mike Bowditch is fighting for his life. After being ambushed on a dark winter road, Bowditch crashes his Jeep into a frozen river. Trapped beneath the ice in the middle of nowhere, having lost his gun and any way to signal for help, Mike fights his way to the surface. But surviving the crash is only the first challenge. Whoever set the trap that ran him off the road is still out there, and they’re coming for him. Hours earlier, Mike had been called to investigate the suspicious drowning of a wealthy professor. Despite the death being ruled an accident, the victim's elegant, eccentric daughter-in-law insists the man was murdered. She suspects his companion that day, a reclusive survivalist and conspiracy theorist who accompanied the professor on his fateful duck-hunting trip—but what exactly was the nature of their relationship? And was her own sharp-tongued daughter, who inherited the dead man’s fortune, as close to her grandfather as she claims? The accusations lead Mike to a sinister local family who claim to have information on the crime. But when his Jeep flies into the river and unknown armed assailants on snowmobiles chase him through the wilderness, the investigation turns into a fight for survival. As Mike faces a nightlong battle to stay alive, he must dissect the hours leading up to the ambush and solve two riddles: which one of these people desperately want him dead, and what has he done to incur their wrath?

Book Description
This book solves the greatest mystery of the Beatles by describing and evaluating a record 166 Paul Is Dead clues that appeared after the Revolver album and before the Let It Be album. Why do so many people in the 21st Century still think that Paul McCartney died in 1966? The Beatles always denied putting "Paul is Dead" clues in their music or their artwork for albums. Yet close examination, sometimes including playing music backwards and using mirrors to look at artwork, shows up to 200 apparent clues. In the song "Glass Onion," Lennon sings "Here's another clue for you all: the walrus was Paul." So why are such clues present and what is the evidence that Paul McCartney died in 1966 and the Beatles covered it up for decades? What did Paul's wife, Heather Mills, mean when she suggested on national TV that she could unmask his dark secret by releasing a box of info if anything untoward should happen to her or their child together? Paul is either one of the most successful rock and pop musicians of all time to this day or he died in 1966 just a few years after achieving fame and fortune. This book weighs all of the available evidence and adds to the evidence by commissioning and revealing a new study by a law enforcement technique called Superrecognizers, something never before achieved in any of the other books in the mountain of books on The Beatles. Come and see the solution to the greatest mystery of The Beatles.
