Seth und Carter sind Musikproduzenten in New York. Tagtäglich streift Seth auf der Suche nach neuen Tönen durch die Stadt. Dabei nimmt er am Washington Square Park zufällig eine unbekannte Stimme auf, die für wenige Augenblicke einen Blues-Song intoniert. Im Studio säubert er die Tonspur der Aufnahme und sampelt sie mit anderen Tonfragmenten. Aus Spaß schreibt Carter das Stück dem fiktiven Interpreten Charlie Shaw zu und stellt es mit dem Hinweis, die Aufnahme stamme aus dem Jahr 1928, ins Netz. Unter Sammlern alter Bluesplatten wird der Song im Nu zu einer viralen Sensation. Doch dann werden Carter und Seth von einem Mann kontaktiert, der behauptet, Charlie Shaw habe tatsächlich gelebt, und kurze Zeit später wird Carter von Unbekannten auf offener Straße angegriffen und schwer verletzt. Während er im Koma liegt, macht sich Seth zusammen mit Carters Schwester Leonie auf den Weg in den tiefen Süden der USA, um dort dem Geheimnis des vermeintlich fiktiven Songs auf die Spur zu kommen. Es wird eine Reise in die Vergangenheit, wo der Tod allgegenwärtig ist ...

LFA is now the Project Manager's Super-Power!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
This books is not just for PMs, it is also for people in operations that are facing the challenge of aligning the output of their day-to-day activities and multiple projects with the bigger picture of their enterprise. Personally, what I liked the most (and which it has been very helpful) is the visualization and alignment of the strategy with the operational side of the business: Logical Framework Approach (LFA) -- I call LFA my hidden super-power! Strategy is an abstract concept and often difficult to communicate to those responsible for the execution of the projects. Terry made this task very simple by addressing the most important aspect of any project: What are we trying to accomplish and Why?

Enlightening and practical
Format: Hardcover
(Review by Scott Miller) I met the author at the PMI Global Summit 2022 and became intrigued with his background and approach. In buying the book, I found it enlightening and practical, for both my work and myself. This is an easy read and is structured in a way to allow me to easily refer to and use the tools it highlights. I encourage anyone interested in project management to buy this book and give it a read...and keep it as a reference for your career! Great work Terry!

Best PM book out there!
Format: Hardcover
This is the best project management book I have found. Clear, concise, provides visuals, online material, he gives you a variety of examples, goes as far as to tell you how to utilize the PM skills to better your personal life, AND when I sent him an email, he called me and we chatted. All you have to do is implement what he provides into your life. Very grateful to have found this book and it’s author.

Not Strategic or Practical
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
This book would be helpful to office managers who are overseeing small self-managed projects. There is heavy emphasis on people management and almost none on any practical project management techniques. It gave me flashbacks of a couple of project managers I've worked with who were completely useless and left the team to pick up their slack; the kind that talk endlessly without saying anything meaningful and struggle with the basics, like scheduling a meeting. I'm giving it 2 stars because it takes quite a bit of time and effort to publish a book.
