The mystery-solving trio, the One and Onlys, from Finally, Something Mysterious is back with another whodunit. Robot crows, a poetry-slash-wrestling Club, and a hamster infestation? This looks like another case to tackle As the excitement from the last mystery the One and Onlys solved is starting to dwindle, Shanks, Peephole, and Paul worry that their town is back to being boring old Bellwood. But as plans for a shiny town makeover get underway, they realize that the old Bellwood is anything but. The glee over New Bellwood is palpable, and it's hard not to get swept away by the flashy new milkshake joint and other developments that are quickly making their small town unrecognizable. But the One and Onlys can't deny that something nefarious seems to be afoot--especially if the robot crow they stumbled upon is any indication. Strange? Yes. Dangerous? Hopefully Shanks doesn't know how these things are connected, but she's determined to find out--with the help of the One and Onlys.

Human beings have vast resources for social, personal, and spiritual growth. This project presents some of the thoughts, ideas, and notions of writers who have dedicated themselves to an approach that facilitates the emergence of the self that one truly is. The differing perspectives reflect a deep commitment to a process that is in many ways indefinable. Yet, each writer presents a snapshot of a process that is incredible to behold, and witness.
Michel Pernaud is an engaging and handsome man in his twenties, finishing college and aiming toward a career as a translator. He thinks his only obstacle to marrying his girlfriend is her father, a domineering man who disapproves of him and his ambitions. When a wealthy, Manhattan real estate developer hires him, his fortunes alternately climb and descend as his services start to include pleasing a French billionaire and his young and attractive daughter who quickly focuses her romantic interests on Michel. However, her attentions place him in compromising situations with his employer and in grave risk of losing his girlfriend. Struggling between temptation and loyalty, ambition and integrity, Michel faces one challenge after another in a story that is sad and funny, romantic and heartwarming.
