About the Book

Why to Kill a Billionaire is the story of how Jay Sam Guy a.k.a. Noel Bodie a.k.a. Al Pearsons comes to learn about the hidden forces that are enslaving humanity, his relationship to those forces, and his struggle to prevent it from happening. In the process, he learns that he is a lot more like a couple of his family members than he had ever realized, and the realization is both comforting and troubling. From his point of view, America and the world will never be the same again.
