This was meant to be our fresh start. It's turning into a nightmare.It seemed like a dream come true when we first moved in. A chance to leave my stressful job behind and fix things with James. But something gnaws at me each morning as I wave my husband off to work from our gated community, accept a coffee from Lin, our housekeeper, and watch my kids play in these eerily perfect, car-free streets. When a neighbor's body is found floating in a pool during a party, the other wives say it was a tragic accident. But there are also whispers about the family who lived in our villa before us-just vanished one day, they say. Something's not right. As I dig deeper, I realize this community will do anything to keep its secrets. Someone's watching me now, I can tell. Even James wants me to stop asking questions, keep quiet, be grateful for what we have. Can I trust him? What if he's part of this too? What if this perfect new life is anything but?For fans of Sophie Hannah, C.L. Taylor and JP Delaney, this addictive exploration of marriage, motherhood and manipulation will have you reading late into the night, wondering: how far would you go to protect your family?

The King's Crew My 2014 work The King's Crew is the 460 page illustrated Unit History of No. 14 Squadron (City of Gisborne) Air Training Corps. The book has 351 illustrations, charts and tables and is one of the few Air Training Corps unit histories written since the ATC was founded by AIRCDRE John Chamier in WWII. It is perhaps the most complete and comprehensive ATC unit history published to date. Given the national development history of the ATC in this country hasn't been published in book form since 1963, I included chapters on the UK genesis of the ATC as well as on the development in New Zealand and other countries.About the Author The author Rex Bunn, is a polymath, an author and producer with eight books published, as well as films and articles. He is a 1960's cadet from the squadron. The King's Crew is a companion publication to the 2012 multimedia film King's Crew. It was developed with members of A Flight. Rex can be viewed discussing the Kings Crew film production at cambridgeairforce.org.nz/WONZ_Show.html#Ep15The 14 Squadron Unit History This unit history was five years in research and production.The King's Crew includes the complete 1941-2014 Honour Roll as well as access to extensive photo and memorabilia collections covering the squadron and the ATC proud history. There are several compelling sections including the Bomber Command anthem Lie in the Dark and Listen, included by permission of Noel Coward's estate, as well as a rendition of the long-lost (and profane) RAF WWII ditty Job Bunt.Proceeds from the 2014-2019 sale of both editions of The Kings Crew are donated to the Air Training Corps via ATCANZ, a registered charity.
The Royal Era is a time of peace for the universe, and in the Blossom Field galaxy, a time of great change. The status quo of millions of years begins to shift as a new generation of Cultivators rise to rule and defend their worlds--and the prophesied Apexes of Dark and Light are born to balance all that lives. High Princesses Shanae Protea and Sayena Delphinium grow up knowing that there will be a price to pay for their very existence, for no Apex can live without paying such a thing, but only Shanae knows the bitter truth of the prophecy that clouds her days and haunts her sleep with nightmares. For her to pay her price, for her to do what must be done . . . the kingdoms will fall.And in an apocalypse that reshapes all existence, they do.Five thousand years pass before those who fell are able to rise again to finish what they had begun. Into a nearly new world they are born where many have forgotten they ever existed. Even the High Princesses themselves barely remember who and what they were--but inside their souls, the memories still live. As evil breaks free anew and forces them to confront their destinies and their past, it is their futures left uncertain as the price to exist looms ever closer, and threaten to destroy them before they can reclaim their crowns and their two kingdoms.
Although Herman Melville's Moby-Dick is beloved as one of the most profound and enduring works of American fiction, we rarely consider it a work of nature writing--or even a novel of the sea. Yet Pulitzer Prize-winning author Annie Dillard avers Moby-Dick is the "best book ever written about nature," and nearly the entirety of the story is set on the waves, with scarcely a whiff of land. In fact, Ishmael's sea yarn is in conversation with the nature writing of Emerson and Thoreau, and Melville himself did far more than live for a year in a cabin beside a pond. He set sail: to the far remote Pacific Ocean, spending more than three years at sea before writing his masterpiece in 1851. A revelation for Moby-Dick devotees and neophytes alike, Ahab's Rolling Sea is a chronological journey through the natural history of Melville's novel. From white whales to whale intelligence, giant squids, barnacles, albatross, and sharks, Richard J. King examines what Melville knew from his own experiences and the sources available to a reader in the mid-1800s, exploring how and why Melville might have twisted what was known to serve his fiction. King then climbs to the crow's nest, setting Melville in the context of the American perception of the ocean in 1851--at the very start of the Industrial Revolution and just before the publication of On the Origin of Species. King compares Ahab's and Ishmael's worldviews to how we see the ocean today: an expanse still immortal and sublime, but also in crisis. And although the concept of stewardship of the sea would have been entirely foreign, if not absurd, to Melville, King argues that Melville's narrator Ishmael reveals his own tendencies toward what we would now call environmentalism. Featuring a coffer of illustrations and an array of interviews with contemporary scientists, fishers, and whale watch operators, Ahab's Rolling Sea offers new insight not only into a cherished masterwork and its author but also into our evolving relationship with the briny deep--from whale hunters to climate refugees.

For Ireland the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries were an era marked by war, economic transformation, and the making and remaking of identities. By the 1630s the era of wars of conquest seemed firmly in the past. But the British civil wars of the mid-seventeenth century fractured both Protestant and Catholic Ireland along lines defined by different combinations of religious and political allegiance. Later, after 1688, Ireland became the battlefield for what was otherwise Britain's bloodless (and so Glorious) Revolution. The eighteenth century, by contrast, was a period of peace, permitting Ireland to emerge, first as a dynamic actor in the growing Atlantic economy, then as the breadbasket for industrialising Britain. But at the end of the century, against a background of international revolution, new forms of religious and political conflict came together to produce another period of multi-sided conflict. The Act of Union, hastily introduced in the aftermath of civil war, ensured that Ireland entered the nineteenth century still divided, but no longer a kingdom.
