JOIN GRACE KELLY'S BROTHER KELL AND HIS TRANS COMPANION Rachel Harlow. Dubbed "Philadelphia's famous transexual" by the press decades before LGBTQ+ support, Harlow was a regular guest on the nationally syndicated Mike Doulas television show. David Bowie credited her as "an influence during my androgynous stage." And in later years she refers to herself as "the best dressed woman at the Acme supermarket."

GRACE KELLY grew up next door to the author's father, who was the same age, in Philly's East Falls neighborhood. She and her brother Kell and were Dad's forever friends. The few close enough to know what happened to the Kelly family wisely kept their mouths shut.

MANUEL NORIEGA'S chronicle also comes from multiple sources. Schofield's mentor in criminal law, Raymond J. Takiff, Esquire, defended Noriega in U.S. courts. .
COOBERATING SOURCES also whispered about Grace and the despot: Schofield's clients and confidantes associated with the Philadelphia Mafia family.

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the modern study of computer algorithms. It presents many algorithms and covers them in considerable depth, yet makes their design and analysis accessible to all levels of readers.
A Great Way to Get Away. You can lose yourself in seedy back alleys or the opulence of Monaco, while experiencing the horror of the tyrant, who was Manuel Noriega, from a safe distance.
The book moved quickly. Being an OC (Organized Crime) buff, I loved every minute of it.
“A Story That Packs A Punch. The characters are a mélange of gritty, flawed, but relatable actors. Schofield shows us humanity in the face of horror, but the emotional journey never slows the pace of the action. Highly recommended.”
This book teaches object-oriented design patterns using a unique and engaging approach. It covers patterns such as the Factory Pattern, Singleton Pattern, and Observer Pattern.
It's a wonderful book to take to the beach. Read it on a cruise and couldn't put this one down. A great story by a lawyer who has inside dope on Grace Kelly, Manual Noriega, and the Philadelphia Mafia family.
