On the South coast of England, in an old art deco picture house, Chris finds a new friend...then has to decide if she has room in her life for one. A loner and an introvert, Chris has worked in Breakwater Picture House for many years. It's the kind of job that people drift through; friendships flourish for a time, contained within their allotted hours and place...and then fade when people move on. But when Dan joins, Chris finds someone who breaks out of these designated boundaries and gradually becomes a part of her life. Initially the relationship helps her out of a rut and she finds her world starting to open up. But as she learns more about her new friend, she must decide if the solitary life she's built is the one she's actually most suited to after all. Dealing with issues of mental health, the joys and drawbacks of choosing a casual job over a career path and the burden that comes with letting other peoples' problems into your life, Breakwater is a stunning second graphic novel from the creator of Follow Me In.

"As an Ender, one of my father's elite guards, it's my job to do as I'm told. When my older sister is sent as an ambassador to the realm of the water elementals--the Deep--I have no choice but to accompany her as her bodyguard. With the death of the water elemental's King, a deadly battle for the throne begins; a battle we are forced to choose sides in. There are only a few things I know for sure. The ocean may be beautiful, but lurking in its depths are monsters to fear, the water I tread is teaming with danger and I am on my own. With no one to help, and no one to trust, I have to find a way to keep my sister safe, and stop a civil war." --Page 4 of cover.
From New York Times bestselling author Carla Neggers All she wants is a new beginning… but ghosts of the past can be hard to shake.

As Quinn draws closer and closer to the truth, she discovers that someone is following her every move. Though Huck McCabe claims he’s a bodyguard at Breakwater, a high-security compound nearby, he’s actually an undercover agent trying to penetrate a violent network of vigilantes—the same people Quinn has identified. Together they must face a conspiracy that could blow the lid off the Department of Justice. Previously Published.

A rat will go out of its way to help a stranger in need. Lions have adopted the calves of their prey. Ants farm fungus in cooperatives. Why do we continue to believe that life in the animal kingdom is ruled by competition? In The Social Lives of Animals, biologist Ashley Ward takes us on a wild tour across the globe as he searches for a more accurate picture of how animals build societies. Ward drops in on a termite mating ritual (while his guides snack on the subjects), visits freelance baboon goatherds, and swims with a mixed family of whales and dolphins. Along the way, Ward shows that the social impulses we’ve long thought separated humans from other animals might actually be our strongest connection to them. Insightful, engaging, and often hilarious, The Social Lives of Animals demonstrates that you can learn more about animals by studying how they work together than by how they compete.

This book presents authoritative research on new experience in the field of coastal structures and breakwaters, particularly that which has led to advances in design procedures. It brings together the experience of an international authorship to cover the design and construction of coastal structures, particularly recent developments, the magnitude and effects of longer-term environmental changes, and the assessment of these structures and their relative safety.
