  Papua, with its vast regions of unexplored jungles and isolated 
  indigenous tribes, is home to a medicinal plant with potent 
  curative powers. The plant’s unique ability to regenerate 
  human nerves is even more consequential. Neurological  
  scientist Ripon Siraj and his research botanist sister, Rava,   
  search Papua’s interior rivers for this rare miracle plant when  
  they become the target of a scurrilous Asian virologist.  
  A co-worker and his girlfriend are mistaken for Rip and Rava 
  and are murdered. Rip calls Washington D.C. for help- 
  Gar Randolph and his unconventional Grey Hawk International 
  team soon intervene to provide support and protection. 
  Papua’s jungles run deep with intrigue. The Taritatu River 
  reveals breath-taking beauty around every bend but beware. 
  Deadly inhabitants lurk in the shadows. Tension poisons 
  serenity. Everyone comes under a cloud of danger.

  About the Book 
  Dallas Falkenhayn bakes and sells the most amazing bread. He is excellent in the kitchen. Creative. Careful. Precise. His only problem is there is an entire world that exists outside of his kitchen. He tries not to think about it. Or visit it. 
  Flannel, Georgia is a tiny town in southern Georgia. They have an alligator processing plant. A high school. And the most railway traffic in the entire south-east. Not much changes in Flannel. And when things do change, they don’t change very quickly. 
  Dallas doesn’t want to go to Flannel, but he has too. Flannel doesn’t particularly want a bakery, but it gets one. 
  And then there is that whole murder thing that happens. 
  About the Author 
  Clay is very boring. That’s why he writes. He really likes to stay at home. If there is ever a choice between going and not going literally anywhere --well that’s not a choice at all.  
  His goal in life is to be in his PJs by five pm, everyday. On good days he doesn’t get out his PJs in the first place. He loves movies, baseball, and board games. His favorite thing in the world is his family. And his favorite thing not in the world is the James Webb Space Telescope. Unless we’re counting Jedis. If we’re counting Jedis than he’ll take Luke Skywalker over James Webb.

  “I am large, I contain multitudes” 
  Walt Whitman published his first collection of poetry, Leaves of Grass, in 1855. Whitman spent most of his professional life writing and revising it multiple times until his death. 
  It was highly controversial during its time for its explicit sexual imagery, and Whitman was subject to derision by many contemporary critics. Over time, however, the collection has infiltrated popular culture and been recognised as one of the central works of American poetry.
