  When is it better to be dead than missing? 
  A woman’s plea to find her missing husband sends Special Agent Kurt Hunter down a road he doesn’t want to go. 
  For all its pristine beauty, Biscayne National Park can be deadly for those lost and unprepared. Open water and inhospitable islands are the most obvious obstacles in a life or death battle, but there is something even more dangerous than nature—man. 
  The search leads to the mangrove-lined shores of the barrier islands, where smugglers and pirates have lurked for centuries. With the clock ticking on finding the man alive, Kurt and his team take to the backwaters of Biscayne Bay to find him. 
  Backwater Squall is filled with all the colorful characters, tropical locations, Florida history, and marine action that readers have come to expect in the Kurt Hunter Mystery series.

  "Moby Dick" (or "The Whale" as it was one known) is the unforgettable story of Captain Ahab’s quest to avenge the whale that ‘reaped’ his leg.  The quest and the novel is a story of how man can become blindly obsessed.  The tale is also a testament to democracy and liberation, as the ship's crew work together for a common end. 
  Ishmael, the novel’s narrator is a young, ordinary sailor learning the practice of whaling. 
  Moby Dick is one of the greatest novels ever written and a timeless classic.

  Scablands and Other Stories

  Winner of the 2025 Arnold Bennett Book Prize
  These are tales from the post-industrial scablands – stories of austerity, poverty, masochism and migration. The people here are sick, lonely, lost, half-living in the aftermath of upheaval or trauma. A teacher obsessively canes himself. A neurologist forgets where home is. A starving woman sells hugs in an abandoned kiosk.
  Yet sometimes, even in the twilit scablands, there's also beauty, music, laughter. Sometimes a town square is filled with bubbles. Sometimes sisters dream they can fly. Sometimes an old man plays Bach to an empty street, two ailing actors see animal shapes in clouds, a cancer survivor searches for a winning lottery ticket in her rundown flat. And sometimes Gustav Mahler lives just round the corner, hoarding rare records in a Stoke terrace.
