  Into the Darién

  The Darién Gap—a lawless strip of jungle between Panama and Colombia—has swallowed countless travelers. Few who enter ever make it out. 
  When a small charter plane crashes in the heart of this untamed wilderness, four survivors are left with no rescue, no supplies beyond what they can carry, and no choice but to trek through one of the most dangerous places on earth. 
  Lena, a battle-hardened pilot, and her son Noah, an ambitious young co-pilot, were supposed to be running a routine flight. Alex, their wealthy passenger, claimed he was on a medical research expedition—but his obsession with a rare jungle orchid hints at another agenda. And Amaia, a quiet woman with a past she doesn’t share, seems to know far more about the land—and the people who control it—than she’s willing to admit. 
  The jungle closes in fast. Days bring unbearable heat, venomous snakes, and rivers teeming with predators. Nights echo with the sound of something stalking them just beyond the firelight. Tensions splinter the group as distrust grows and survival becomes a brutal negotiation. 
  Every step forward is a gamble. Every decision could be the one that gets them killed. And in the Darién, the most dangerous thing they’ll face might not be the jungle at all. 
  Into The Darién is a gripping survival thriller of greed, loyalty, and endurance, where the secrets people keep are as deadly as the terrain.

  Mississippi rivers and creeks have shaped every aspect of the state's geology, ecology, economy, settlement, and politics. Mississippi's paddleways—its rivers, rills, creeks, and streams—are its arteries, its lifeblood, and the connective tissues that tie its stories and histories together and flood them with a sense of place and impel them along the current of time. The rivers provide structure for the telling of stories. In Paddleways of Mississippi: Rivers and People of the Magnolia State, listeners will discover flowing details of virtually every waterway in the state—the features, wildlife, vegetation, geology, hydrology, and specific challenges to be expected—alongside many wonderful historical and social accounts specific to each system. 
   
   
   
  Interviews and oral histories enliven these waterways with evocative scenery, engaging anecdotes, interesting historical tales, and personal accounts of the people and communities that arose along the waterways of Mississippi. Part natural history, part narrative nonfiction, Paddleways of Mississippi will appeal to outdoor enthusiasts, anglers, naturalists, campers, and historians, and is suitable for novices as well as experts. Told together, the pieces included are a social and ecological history that exposes and deepens the connection coursing between the people and the rivers.
