The search began at the brink of Horseshoe Falls—one of the three waterfalls that create the grandeur of Niagara.

Swallowed by the whirlpools—some found, some lost forever—and motivated by depression, desperation, loss of love, or shame, they were drawn to the awesome power of the landmark for one haunting purpose. Michael Clarkson is a professional speaker and author of nine books, focusing largely on mental health issues and self-help. He has won a dozen national and international awards for his writing and research. Cover design by Adil DaraWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
