Large catamaran sailing yachts, their crews and owners are disappearing in the mid-Atlantic, and the mystery is about to land on the docks at Mallard Cove. Can some of the Mallard Cove gang solve the mystery before someone they know disappears? And sailboats are moving into the marina, causing issues with some of the powerboaters, especially Baloney. His new nemesis is a channel-hogging owner of a big Chinese junk who just might get the two of them evicted from the marina. Meanwhile Murph and Lindsay fight to keep a new venture from being stolen out from under them.
Coastal Cats is an intriguing mystery novel set in the mid-Atlantic. In this fifth installment of the best-selling Coastal Adventures Series, Murph and his friends find themselves caught up in a puzzling and dangerous situation as large catamaran sailboats and their occupants begin to inexplicably vanish around the Chesapeake. The disappearances set the nerves of many boat owners in Mallard Cove Marina on edge. Then, the arrival of several new sailboats only adds to the chaos as the age-old rivalry between powerboaters and sailors erupts anew, making things worse as Baloney discovers a new nemesis that may get both of them kicked out of Mallard Cove. Then, while on their honeymoon in Bermuda, Marlin and Kari stumble onto a huge clue in the disappearances but find the Bermuda police to be of little help. Upon their return to the US, they team up with Murph and the gang, who are all determined to get to the bottom of these disappearances and find the hijackers who are responsible. They must race against time to solve the mystery and prevent more people from vanishing. Meanwhile, a revolutionary new invention in hydrofoil technology becomes the target of thieves after Murph and Lindsay have become heavily invested in the business that invented it. A hydrofoil catamaran race may settle the question of ownership of the technology, but bad weather is looming ahead. Whoever wins the race will have to face the worst that Mother Nature has to offer. Coastal Cats is a thrilling and suspenseful story where the protagonists must use their wits and teamwork to unravel the mystery behind the disappearances and bring the culprits to justice. Whether you're a fan of the Coastal Adventures Series or a newcomer, this is an exciting read for anyone interested in maritime mysteries and suspenseful tales. Coastal Cats is the fifth book in the Coastal Adventures Series but can also be enjoyed as a stand-alone novel.
Wild Cats of the World provides detailed accounts for all 38 species of wild cat accompanied by magnificent artwork and stunning photography. From the rabbit-sized Black-footed Cat of southern Africa to bear-killing Amur tigers of the Russian Far East, the 38 members of the Cat Family include some of the world's most fascinating and magnificent species on earth. Supremely adapted for the kill, all cats are obligate carnivores; they survive only by preying upon other animals, and they have become one of evolution's most successful predatory lineages of mammals. Wild Cats of the World explores the spectacular Cat Family in unprecedented depth. Drawing on thousands of scientific papers and direct observations in the field, each species is profiled at length, covering all aspects of felid behaviour and ecology. The book is profusely illustrated with colour plates, black-and-white sketches showing important aspects of cat life and accurate images of every species' skull. Over 400 spectacular photographs are included, many of them showing extremely rare and little-known cats published here for the first time. Each profile includes an up-to-date range map and explains the most current science on how cats are classified and related to each other, including some very recent, surprising discoveries. Despite their great evolutionary success, the challenges facing felids in the modern world are profound. Only one, the ubiquitous domestic cat, does not require dedicated conservation action to ensure survival for the next century. The book also explores the current conservation issues facing wild cats, the increasingly perilous status of many species and how they can be saved.
Growing Up Coastal: Life on the Georgia Coast By: Clay Sikes In the drug filled 1960’s and 1970’s, life for a young person in Liberty County Georgia was much like living in the wild west. With a military base on the west end of the county and a pristine, well-travelled coastline to the east, life in the small Southern town was anything but dull. And being the son and grandson of the local sheriffs meant that Clay saw much more than the average citizen. The stories in this book chronicle the drastic cultural shift that was occurring in America during the ‘60s and ‘70s, from the birth of the booming new smuggling cocaine and marijuana trade, to the influx of thousands of troops to a new military base on the Georgia Coast. For a teenager like Clay, these were times filled with excitement, creating lifelong bonds, and memories lasting a lifetime. These are the extraordinary tales of ordinary people told by a man who was there to witness it all.

There is a ghost in my house. I've only seen it out of the corner of my eye, but I think it is a cat, says a little boy in this comforting tale of love and loss. There's something oddly familiar about this ghost cat--it does lots of things that remind the boy of the cat he used to have. The boy's not sure why the ghost cat never stays for more than a few moments, or why the ghost cat has visited him in the first place. He follows the ghost cat all over his house, until finally it leads him to something new and wonderful. Bestselling author/illustrator Kevan Atteberry's artwork and story strike a perfect balance of evocative and haunting, as well as warm and hugely comforting to anyone struggling to cope with a loss. With a few carefully chosen words and simple, expressive illustrations, Ghost Cat captures both the poignancy of losing a pet and the importance of moving on without erasing or forgetting what came before.
