(view spoiler)["Zenith Man: Death, Love, and Redemption in a Georgia Courtroom," was a mystery in my life, in the form of a very unusual murder case. I was at the nadir of my own life, with losses in my personal, physical, and professional life.
Alvin Ridley was considered a town weirdo. His constant stare, conspiratorial suspicions, and litigious nature made him few friends. When he reported the dead woman in his house to be his wife, nobody in the town where everyone knew everything about everyone knew he had a wife.
When he began to stalk me to get my help, yet fight me at every turn, it was the challenge that I needed.

McP, when I first saw your book's title, that 'Z' word made me think of the Zodiac. To represent him with a heart of compassion -- even while he faced the slings and arrows of character assassination, plus 'guilty' before proven innocent -- took great courage. CS Lewis stated, "Courage is not simply one of the virtues. Courage is the form of every virtue at its testing point." WHO inspires you & gives you courage?

I saw you on American Justice, probably when the episode was close to new, and never forgot your name because it was so unique. When browsing giveaways I immediately recognized your name and the association and case behind it. All this time later, could you tell me the history behind your unique name?
