was just another day on the job for fifty-three-year-old Richard
Phillips, captain of the Maersk Alabama, a United States cargo ship
that was carrying food and agricultural materials for the World Food
Program. That all changed when armed Somali pirates boarded the
ship. The pirates didn't expect the crew to fight back, nor did they

A
Twisted Faith:
A Minister's Obsession and the Murder that Destroyed a Church
by Gregg Olsen
On
December 26, 1997, near the affluent community of Bainbridge Island
off the coast of Seattle, a house went up in flames. In it was the
shy, beloved minister's wife Dawn Hacheney. When the fire was
extinguished, investigators found only her charred remains. Her
husband Nick was visibly devastated by the loss. What investigators
failed to note, however, was that Dawn's lungs didn't contain smoke.
Was she dead before the fire began?
