"Houses of the Holy" by Mark Harris is a gripping narrative that exposes a complex web of corruption, power, and abuse at the highest levels of government, law enforcement, and religious institutions. This meticulously researched exposé delves into the dark underbelly of American society, revealing the intricate connections between federal and state officials, far-right extremists, organized crime, and the secretive world of Freemasonry.

Harris's work paints a disturbing picture of how money and religion exert undue influence over politics and law enforcement, perpetuating a legacy of hate and corruption. The author introduces readers to a cast of characters that seem almost too outrageous to be real, yet are firmly rooted in fact.
Perhaps most shocking are the religious leaders who willingly compromise their moral standing to protect a monstrous individual, highlighting the extent of corruption within supposedly virtuous institutions.

Harris's background as a decorated Air Force special operations pilot who served in combat lends credibility to his investigation, as he fearlessly confronts the power structures that have long evaded scrutiny. Through his relentless pursuit of truth, Harris exposes the hidden machinations that sustain authority and privilege, challenging readers to confront the uncomfortable realities of American power dynamics.

"Houses of the Holy" stands as a testament to one man's unwavering determination to seek justice in the face of overwhelming odds, offering a stark warning about the fragility of democratic institutions when faced with the corrosive influence of unchecked power and greed.

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
