Dan Brown’s Crown

There’s another addition to the recent “Brown Theme” pattern-cluster, that I hadn’t mentioned, one that cropped up before I took notice, note from my November 11 post, Julie Payette kicks Asstrology:
...I’m more in favour of writers like Dan Brown who aren’t afraid to write with a Darwinian edge.     
I decided to investigate further and so googled: writers who dare to write the truth like Dan Brown.  And one of the articles google brought me to is: Top 10 Writers Similar to Dan Brown – Top10HQ.   Of the 10, the author in 8th place stands out:
8.  Sam Bourne  Jonathan Freedland, writes under the pseudonym in order to lessen confusion between his fiction and non-fiction works. The Daily Mirror declared Sam Bourne to be ‘the biggest challenger to Dan Brown’s crown’ ... 
For one, the reference re: “Dan Brown’s Crown” resonates given the recent “Royalty/Rich Theme” pattern-cluster, note yesterdays post  title: Brown Crown Tyrant.   As a second, that he was place 8th also resonates given the following from my previous post:
  •   “March 8,  April 8(x6 )  __, __, __, August 8(x3), September 8, October 8, __, December 8, January 8/ 8th Day, Month Sequence” pattern .   
Of the authors mentioned in the list, I’m only familiar with one, having read some of his novels ... and watched films based on his novels.  And it’s interesting to note that Ludlum is best known as the creator of Jason “Bourne”, and so we now have a “Bourne Theme” pattern-cluster in the works.  Note from his wiki page:
  • Robert Ludlum (May 25, 1927 – March 12, 2001)
  • Ludlum died on March 12, 2001, at his home in Naples, Florida, while recovering from severe burns caused by a mysterious fire
My Tou Sense tingles every time I see Florida crop up— where the MacGregor’s live.  So venturing to the Naples (Fla) wiki page we arrive at the following:
Incorporated (city)May 25, 1949
We now have a “May 25(x2)” pattern-cluster.   I did read a bit on the circumstances re “the mysterious fire” that led to his death.  It appears that there are those who think his second wife played a part... now note her surname: Karen Dunn, and it’s etymology:
dun (adj.)Old English dunn "dingy brown... 
If you want an excellent read... a lot of laughs mixed with truth/speculation about Rober Ludlum’s life and death— http://www.gulfshorelife.com/January-2012/Condo-Confidential/.
 Since the inner twin world tend to generate clusters in groups of 3 or more, this cluster is strategic— a prompt for us to seek out the third... or more.  Venturing to the May 25 wiki page, using the formula  brings me to the Deaths section ... and  to the years having 3 identical numbers at the end, which is usually the notable persons who passed away in 1999 and/or 2000.  In the case of May 25th, there were no deaths recorded in 1999 or 2000 and so leaving me to investigate the two next in line— on either side of where 1999 and 2000 would otherwise be, and so arriving at :
And so note their birthdays that expand the cluster:
  •   “March 8,  April 8(x7)  May 8 , __, __, August 8(x3), September 8, October 8, __, December 8, January 8/ 8th Day, Month Sequence” pattern . 
As well, in a case like this I generally also investigate 2011 and then using the formula on the births section, and so arriving at:
And so the cluster expands yet again:
  “March 8,  April 8(x7)  May 8 , __, __, August 8(x3), September 8(x2), October 8, __, December 8, January 8/ 8th Day, Month Sequence” pattern . 
 Miles Malleson had cropped up recently, note from my November 14 post,  Thieves of Bagdad:
Much can be garnered from his name alone—as just one example,  the MM being an addition to the “Alliteration Theme” pattern-cluster.   Note from his wiki page:
  • Miles Malleson (25 May 1888 – 15 March 1969)
Things  come full circle once again!!   Note this next excerpt from the post:
And so we now have a “June 8(x3)” pattern-cluster
And as you can see, this was the beginning of the cluster... butt I failed to include... never too late:
  •   “March 8,  April 8(x7)  May 8 , June 8(x2),  __, August 8(x3), September 8(x2), October 8, __, December 8, January 8/ 8th Day, Month Sequence” pattern . 
With only two gaps to bridge.  Any Takers?!
