A Lifetime Last Night by David Homick pleasant and thought-provoking and exciting

Although I do not know Dave Homick I should, as we both live in Auburn N.Y a very small town in upstate New York I know many people who know Dave they all agree he is a great guy,and I think now we all agree he is a great, talented writer also. I would love to see a writer from our town make it big with a N.Y times best seller and Dave is our best shot. This book is not a new subject line,Warren Beatty came back in a different body to win a super bowl in Heaven can wait a old mediocre movie for his standards,Once there was a T.V series on this subject also.Dave takes this subject to a new level with the unique idea of making things right with his wife before he departs this world,the char actors are well defined you will fine a little bit of yourself in all of them,

Review from Goodreads
This novel is very well written and the story flows easily, and if I didn't know it was the author's first, I would not have suspected it. Despite the genre not being one I normally read, the writing and story kept me interested and I read it in a weekend. If you enjoy a nice story about love and forgiveness with a metaphysical twist, I highly recommend this book.

There is romance,tragedy,incitement,soul baring,mystery, all the things it takes to make a best sellers most of all IT is well written not at all would u guess it is a first book of the author.I predict this book to do well very well as a matter of fact it is a great book. Thank you Dave for a great read millions will enjoy, all of us in Auburn are very proud of you.

A Lifetime Last Night' starts off with a guy waking up in hospital and discovering that absolutely everyone thinks he is somebody else. Then the story goes back a few several weeks to the marital problems of Richard and Emily. What comes after for some time is a quite common tale until around half way through the book  when Richard has an accident and wakes up in a different body. This is when it gets really fascinating. We find that Richard has been given another opportunity to make things right with Emily, but he will have to do it in the body of the man who killed him in the accident.

The metaphysics here is the concept that we have hurdles with various people and that we must live again and yet again with them until we meet the challenge. Richard and Emily have been just missing for lifetimes, but this time Richard gets some divine assistance in the form of an old man called Arthur. Living months as a different person trying to win her heart gradually presents a renewed sense of his place in the world and the significance of his partnership with his wife.

The characters are extremely strong and the relationships credible. The writing is uncomplicated but powerful and flows well, making it a highly readable book. The book is well methodized and moves at a excellent pace. The author takes an fascinating premise and brings the story to life in a way that is both pleasant and thought-provoking.

best ever,it takes a unique concept, unique idea and runs with it this book has movie written
all over it and as sure as im sitting here it's the beginning of a remarkable series.
Amos Decker's life changed

play pro football. But his occupation ended before it had a probability to begin. On his very
first play, a brutal helmettohelmet
collision knocked him off the field for good, and left him
with an impossible side effecthe
can never forget anything.

The Last Mile (Amos Decker series book 2) another outstanding Amos Decker story from David Baldacci


Is now out read our review 
In David's #1 New York Times bestseller Memory Man, David Baldacci launched the astonishing detective Amos Decker-the man who can't forget anything. Now, Decker comes back in a breathtaking new thriller . . .
THE LAST MILE

Almost two decades afterwards now a police detective, Decker returned home from a
stakeout one evening and entered a nightmare his wife, young daughter, and brotherinlaw
had been murdered.
His family demolished, their killer's id as unexplained as the objective behind the crime, and
not able to forget a single detail from that terrible night, Decker finds his world crumbling
around him. He leaves the police force, loses his home, and winds up on the street, taking
minor jobs as a private investigator when he can.
But over a year later, a man turns himself in to the police and confesses to the murders. At
the same time a horrifying event nearly brings Burlington to its knees, and Decker is called
back in to help with this investigation. Decker also grabs his chance to learn what really
happened to his family that night. To uncover the stunning truth, he must use his remarkable
gifts and confront the burdens that go along with them. He must endure the memories he
would much rather forget. And he may have to make the ultimate sacrifice.
Amos Decker, an exceptional athlete who made it to the NFL, encountered a
helmettohelmet
impact on his first play that transformed his life permanently. From that
instant, Decker's brain changed and he lost the capacity to forget. The whole world became a
plethora of colors and memories that he could effortlessly access. With his new capabilities,
he's the ideal applicant to become a police detective. He can go to a crime scene once and
walk through it over and over again in his brain, and he can remember word for word
testimony by a witness or suspect.
His life is demolished when he comes home and finds that his wife, young daughter and
brotherinlaw
have been murdered. He can never forget about the scene, and with no
witnesses and little data, he sinks into hopelessness. Decker ends up leaving the force and
becomes homeless. He works as a private detective but has few clients, and he's humiliated
by his overall look and how low he has fallen.

Red Notice by Bill Browder A great true Political thriller

The true Powerful story of activist Bill Browder's life in Russia among the rich and powerful. An American moves to Russia in the Crazy 1990s. He makes a heap of money trading in the stock market, makes a enemy of Vladimir Putin and his mobsters of his thieving empire, and becomes deported. His best friend and lawyer is murdered bye  Vladimir Putin's thugs as so many of his foes are.Rather than lying low, he battles back. He turns into an global crusader for justice.

A genuine political thriller about an American investor in the Wild East of Russia, the killing of his young tax attorney, and his risky quest to uncover the Kremlin’s corruption.

Bill Browder’s voyage started on the South Side of Chicago and shifted to Stanford Business School to the insane community of hedge fund investing in the 1990s. It carried on in Moscow, where Browder made his fortune heading the largest investment fund in Russia after the Soviet Union’s collapse. But when he revealed the corrupt officials who were robbing the companies in which he was investing, Vladimir Putin flipped on him and, in 2005, had him expelled from Russia.

As a youthful management advisor in London, he conveyed a unexplained interest in Eastern Europe, and just after the Berlin Wall drops, he had a humorous adventure trying to rebuild a Polish bus company. This led to him establishing his own investment firm, Hermitage Capital. In December 1995 at age 31, Browder moved to Moscow.

Red Notice is the tale of Bill Browder's hedge fund, Hermitage Capital, which at one time was the most significant foreign investor in Russia. Hermitage created extremely high profits and, before its collapse, Browder had four and a half billion dollars under his management. As opposed to hedge funds like Long Term Capital Management, the fund did not blowup. Alternatively, it was ruined by the corrupt Russian government. This the narrative of Heritage Capital's rise and fall. It is also the saga of the murder of a Russian tax lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky who worked for Browder. Red Notice is also an account of Bill Browder's campaign for justice for Magnitsky.
This is a amazing book read it.
