In August 2012, Cape Cod, Massachusetts experienced its first confirmed white shark attack in nearly eight decades. Typically a beloved seaside getaway, renowned for its idyllic scenery and carefree beach vibes, the tranquil atmosphere of the town gave way to panic and fear as shark sightings multiplied and beachside billboards warned of the growing shark population. Spending decades in the community and along the coast was Dr. Greg Skomal whose remarkable life and research comes to life in CHASING SHADOWS: My Life Tracking the Great White Shark (William Morrow; July 11, 2023; $29.99) by Dr. Greg Skomal and coauthored by Ret Talbot. Their book presents a remarkable account of the resurgence of great white sharks and the delicate balance between conservation and public safety. At the heart of this gripping narrative is Skomal, a renowned shark biologist whose lifelong passion has been to understand great white sharks. Chasing Shadows chronicles his journey navigating shark conservation efforts along the New England coast while pursuing groundbreaking scientific discoveries. Dr. Skomal has dedicated over three decades to tagging, tracking, and demystifying these enigmatic creatures, employing an innovative array of high and low-tech methods, many of which he created, to enhance our knowledge of the animals. His work brings him face-to-face with these shadows of the deep, delving into the lives of the complicated beings who have long remained shrouded in mystery. Chasing Shadows tells a conservation success story illuminating the efforts to restore an apex predator to its ecosystem. It reveals a profound understanding of the great white shark's true vulnerability beneath its perceived ferocity. Skomal and Talbot offer a captivating narrative that explores the intricate puzzle of human and shark coexistence. By shedding light on the oft unseen world of these majestic creatures, the book challenges preconceptions and invites readers to consider a new perspective on their place in our shared environment. The book serves as a call to action, reminding us of our responsibility to protect and preserve the delicate balance of our oceans and their inhabitants. Through the triumphs and tribulations of Skomal's tireless efforts, readers are invited to embark on an unforgettable journey that will forever change their perception of these magnificent creatures.

In Northern Ireland in the 1980s and '90s, war was a secret, and young Jane Ferguson wanted to know the truth. For her, war was called The Troubles, bomb threats and military checkpoints on the way to school were commonplace, and an uncle's gunshot wound by an IRA assassin was disguised as a cow kick. Jane developed a penchant for asking questions that cut through this culture of silence, while the unspoken tension in her village exploded into abuse and rage at home. An opportunity to study Arabic in Yemen came as a great relief and began a new pursuit of answers. Ferguson has since reported from nearly every war front around the globe-from Yemen and Syria during the Arab Spring, Afghanistan during the fall of Kabul, and Ukraine during Russia's 2022 invasion-but her rise to the highest ranks of journalism has been anything but ordinary. Without family wealth or connections, she worked as a scrappy one-woman reporting team, a borrowed camera often her only equipment. Networks told her she had the wrong accent, even the wrong appearance. Still, her ambition to build a life in journalism on her own terms thrust her into harm's way time and again. While other reporters chased "bang bang shoot 'em up" stories, a different set of questions guided Ferguson's work, ones that gave faces and names to the people experiencing these conflicts. In the face of grave violence and suffering, giving voice to civilian lives seemed a small act of justice, no matter the risks.

On December 5, 2005, Air Force Special Ops Paratrooper Israel Del Toro's life changed completely when, returning to his base, the Humvee he was in ran over an IED. The resulting explosion and fire burned Del Toro over 80% of his body. He survived, somehow, and was transported back to a U.S. hospital. Against enormous odds, his trials and tribulations to live were just beginning. For the first time, Del Toro tells the full story of his ordeal in his truly inspiring memoir, A PATRIOT'S PROMISE: Protecting My Brothers, Fighting for My Life, and Keeping My Word (St. Martin's Press, on sale July 4, 2023, $28.99). For the next four months, Del Toro lay in a coma. On three separate occasions his devoted wife, Carmen, was called to his side as doctors feared he would not make it overnight. His story is not only one of courage and overcoming horrific obstacles from war, but also conquering myriad roadblocks throughout his life. At age 12, he lost his father and became the man of the house. Having been told by his high school guidance counselor he should just concentrate on going to a local junior college, the determined teen ended up with a scholarship to the University of Illinois. But just as things started rounding into shape in his young life, his mother unexpectedly died. Now Del Toro had to fully embrace the promise he gave his father to take care of his younger siblings. He walked away from his college dream and returned home to care for his family. With his siblings growing up, and family members close by, Del Toro made the tough decision to enlist in the Air Force. His skills were a natural fit and his superior officers could see his natural leadership qualities. Though recently married, with a baby boy to care for as well, he was deployed to Afghanistan. His strength and perseverance made his fellow cadets gravitate towards him. And then.December 5, 2005. Still, after being told he'd spend 18 months in the hospital, Del Toro was so determined to return home that he was released only two months into his stay. He still needed daily care from his wife, Carmen, and his greatest fear remained - would his young three-year-old son be frightened of his physical appearance? When father and son met again after months of separation, the young boy ran into his father's arms. All he wanted was his Dad back.

Over the pandemic we started writing and passing ideas back and forth from the US to Lima, Peru. After a few online writing sessions, Holly and Fred flew to Lima, Peru to record two songs with Cesar. When the songs were finished they produced accompanying music and lyric videos which quickly gained attention.
A few months later they signed with Rock Avenue Records USA, and returned to Lima to finish the record. When the record was released in late March '23, they signed with Atomic Music Group (Booking Agency).

Since then they have been playing shows on the West Coast and have plans to play all over the US, while also returning for a tour in Peru at the end of 2023.

Jack Kerouac but make it a girl with braids. Carrie Bradshaw, but without the sex, and also braids. An American Icon. An American Odyssey. American propaganda. Violently so, in some cases. Laura Ingalls Wilder is evergreen. For better or worse. Since the first Little House book was published in 1932, generations of readers have flocked to Laura's cozy stories of the Ingalls family settling the Western frontier. The series inspired a TV show, pageants, and entire fashion lines. Behind this franchise is a woman who experienced almost a full century of American history. She'd made her first trips in a covered wagon, and eventually flew on a jet plane. Laura Ingalls Wilder's life and legacy remain as powerful, mesmerizing, controversial, and violent as the America she represents. In a country currently at odds with itself and its history could there be a better time for an exploration of this woman?

Cybill Unbound removes society’s preconceived notions about what type of sexual experience a woman can have – at any age. Her subject matter breaks through boundaries
and leaves her book in genre limbo. It is not exactly your standard romance and it is not erotica. It is sexual literary fiction for the curious-minded mature woman who needs to
know it is not too late – or shameful – to enjoy a spicy, invigorating relationship, perhaps outside the marriage. Cybill Unbound (Heliotrope Books, 2023) is about the sexual adventures of an older woman over a 30-year period. Cybill is 42 when the book begins and 72 when it ends during the pandemic. Cybill goes on having sexual adventures into her fifties and sixties.
“Why are so few novels written about and for women over 50?” asks Hiller, 76. “Women want and need books that address sexual exploration, empowerment, and fulfillment. Cybill Unbound pioneers a frontier for the open-minded woman who feels suffocated by the mores of the past. My book shows a woman pursuing what forbidden relationships can offer. They don’t always work out, but this doesn’t daunt Cybill.”

The provocative character, Cybill, is in some ways similar to Hiller. She is smart, sensual, and unafraid to challenge convention. “I encourage women to explore what feels right for them and not to let outdated norms of how one is ‘supposed’ to act handcuff them.”
