“Forewarned is forearmed”: A captivating story that parts the curtains of the spirit world revealing how evil works in and around us

Posted: 01-Sep-2026

If you struggle to break free from strangleholds that inexplicably bind you, and if you aren’t aware or don’t believe that demonic spirits could be the problem, this book is strongly recommended for you. In the form of a simple story of our times, involving a university student troubled by pornographic addiction, it lucidly illustrates how devils mislead people to danger and crime, starting with one seemingly “innocent” deflection to another from safe lifestyles. They bank on people’s ignorance or denial of their existence, so that by the time a victim notices something is wrong, they’re already in grave danger. View the review now?

Two grisly showdowns: when Sherlock Holmes and his associates pay back the wily actors of Victorian England’s flesh trade their dues!

Posted: 24-Aug-2026

While we look on helplessly, the flesh trade industry takes a toll on thousands upon thousands of poor girls, many of them minors, who are lured, trapped, and sold into a life of shame. Usually, they are forced into exploitation in vice dens. They find their captors too powerful to fight against and prevail. And if threatened, their captors may kill them. This renders them helpless, and because the industry receives tacit support/protection from highly placed persons in governments and law enforcement, it’s practically impossible to root out the flesh trade for good.

However, affected individuals like parents, siblings, and friends cannot sit back—they must fight until they get justice. Outraged by the injustices, some noble souls in the public, not directly related to the victims, also join the fight. In this book, Holmes and his associates fight the wily operatives of the velvet underworld of Victorian England on two occasions to pay them back for their utter wickedness—the first in Cambridge, around 1868, and the second in London, around 1893.

What makes the book stand out is the author’s innovativeness in writing two interlinked mysteries involving the same villain, spaced 25 years apart.

I recommend this book to all fans of Sherlock Holmes worldwide.

A Sherlock Holmes novel: when an advanced clock's differing chimes reveal the killer’s name!

Posted: 21-Jul-2026

Talking of the world of Sherlock Holmes novels, I think the plot rarely gets more complex than in this one.

The Clockmaker’s Bequest is a traditional, full-length Holmes story. The plot revolves around the murder of a brilliant clockmaker and technology wizard who creates a highly advanced clock before his death. The chimes consist of unique musical sequences. Coded within the chimes is the killer’s name.

Holmes needs to crack this complex code to find the killer.

I found it enjoyable and definitely worth reading.

Please check it out if you are a Sherlock Holmes fan.

Book Review: 'My 730 days at the Gates of Hell' by Philip Van Huesen

America’s prisons are rotting. Even worse, the entire legal system (judiciary, law-enforcement, prisons, and the collective workforce involved) today is a blind monster, without a heart. View it through the eyes of an American pastor who served an undeserved 2-year term in a US prison. Jump in now?
