Explore the mystical, poetic world of Miranda, the Merbaby. Put on your swimmers and goggles, accept the spell to give you gills for breathing, and dive with octopus as she shows you the mystery of creatures deep in the ocean.
In this little fantasy, Miranda is bored with her daily life of sleeping, playing and eating bamboo. When she sees that the zoo's gate has been left open, she decides to take a trip into town! Share in Miranda's fun and see what she has learned by the time she returns to the zoo!
Miranda's silver shoes are magic. Individually they are old and worn, half falling to bits, but when they are brought together they sparkle and shimmer like new, vibrating with energy. When she puts them on, anything is possible. They transport her to a land of dragons and trolls, to the door of The Great Magician himself.
When Miranda Westerby's estranged and unpleasant great-aunt suddenly passes away, it appears that she left a legacy behind: a home in the idyllic village of Fairford Parva, Wiltshire. However, there are strings attached to the inheritance . . . The move prompts more discoveries about her family history than Miranda bargained for, which leave her confused and hurt. But while she might not have any flesh or blood around, Miranda does have the chance to shape a new circle of people dear to her. And perhaps find love along the way.
Miranda Westerby always believed she was an only child. When her adoptive mother dies, Miranda discovers a box of papers in the attic of the family home, and the contents shock her to her core: she is the eldest of four children, scattered to the four winds when their birth parents died suddenly. Miranda sets out to find her siblings, and along the way she finds a love of her own.

What if you had powers that were ... well, like a witch? You know, moving things around without touching them, starting fires without a match, making plants grow from a seed-little things like that. At first, learning the family secret is fun and exciting for soon-to-be fourteen Miranda Hutton. But what if her ability to control the elements around her suddenly becomes a matter of survival? And what if-horrors -the complete extent of her powers depends on her knowledge of science?
New York Detective Frank Santorsola had an affinity for undercover work and soon found himself working deep cover, successfully infiltrating the Lucchese crime family under the cover name of Frank Miranda. Miranda is tasked to gather evidence in an international heroin-smuggling case of pure heroin from the Middle East into the New York metropolitan area. His informant, Mike Baraka, claimed he had been falsely arrested, indicted, and convicted for a crime he did not commit. He turns to the only person who believes him, Frank Miranda.Miranda develops a tabooed friendship with Baraka and realizes he will need to make choices that are uncomfortable, struggling between department expectations and what he believes is morally wrong. It's a surgical look into the very essence of the criminal justice system, exposing the corrupt nature of an institution and the political powers that run it. This is a gripping story of challenges, frustrations, anger and redemption.
