I was dead set against it, but they did it anyways. I haven’t been out in the world of retail since I was in my early twenties, and even then I was in the back warehouse unloading stock. I didn’t really work with customers in a sales capacity, so when they said part of the agreement of having a space in the antique and vintage store, was to work in the shop a few days a month I said I won’t work alone. I have no clue how to deal with customers face to face. Over the phone is one thing, but face to face seems absolutely horrific. I never wanted to be left alone in the shop, but yesterday they did. And… I was fine. The people that came in were fun and nice. I even recognized a few returning customers and had a nice chit chat with them. No one laughed at me or got frustrated as I rung their items up and did a little math to figure out the tax. It all went just fine. I didn’t think I could go back out there into the crazy world. I was wrong. That is a very strange feeling.

Death lurks below.
Will Kane finds a body underneath Hell Gate Bridge. Where this gruesome discovery leads him is a world even he, a New York native, never dreamed existed. Not even in his worst nightmares.

No one knows the full extent of the labyrinth that lies below New York City. It’s a world unto itself. People, mostly homeless, have made inroads to the more accessible parts for shelter. But there are others who prowl the darkness for their own evil reasons.

He learns this isn’t an isolated incident and that murders are being committed in horrendous ways, and they seem to be just the tip of the iceberg that can be seen. The police, not able to control the streets above, care little about what’s below and the missing. It’s up to Kane to find out who is behind this. And as he literally digs deeper, he realizes it reaches to the highest levels of New York City.

Ex-Green Beret Will Kane has undiagnosed Asperger. He is a high-functioning autistic, like a number of exceptional people, especially in the arts. Except his art is death and he is very, very good at it. Now he faces his greatest challenge yet.

by Joe Bielling, Kate West
5 Stars (9 Reviews)

FREE for a limited time

What if your greatest strengths were really just your most refined survival strategies?

For years, you held it together. You kept the peace. You pushed through. You stayed quiet when it hurt — or strong when it didn’t feel safe to fall apart. Maybe you even looked like the one who had it all figured out.

But under the surface, something was unraveling. The roles you mastered began to suffocate you. The strategies that once kept you safe started to turn against you. What once protected you was starting to wear you down.

From Broken to Badass is for the ones who are done being who they had to be —
and finally ready to come home to the quiet, unshakable presence of who they really are.

Through a powerful fusion of Internal Family Systems, somatic practices, and soul-level truth-telling, this book invites you to stop managing your life and start living it.

It’s an invitation to meet all of you — the parts that hustle, hide, protect, and hope — and let them rest in the safety of your wholeness.

Turns out, the most badass thing you can be is real. And that changes everything.
