John R. Allen

Beyond, Hours, Seek

Barbara Olson

Mistakes, Through, Made

Al Gore, the former vice-president of the United States, lives in a mansion that uses more electricity than the average family's bungalow! David Suzuki rides on a bus that uses more fuel than a Smart car to get across Canada! Oh my God! And this is just the tip of the vanishing iceberg!
Linwood Barclay

Family, God, Car
