  🎈 The annual Sky High Festival in the picturesque town of Aero Vista is a colorful spectacle of hot air balloons, but the celebration turns to tragedy when the lead pilot—a charismatic but ruthless businessman—plummets to his death in a suspicious balloon collapse. The accident is blamed on a faulty burner, but festival organizer and part-time balloonist Skye Hawkins notices the evidence doesn't add up. The sabotage was subtle, clever, and clearly the work of an expert. As the prime suspect due to a public feud with the victim over the festival's future, Skye must get her investigation off the ground to clear her name. With help from her adventurous dachshund, Nimbus, and a quiet balloon mechanic with a keen eye for detail, Skye uncovers a sky-high stack of suspects. From a rival pilot accused of stealing routes and a disgruntled former employee to a secret investor with everything to gain, everyone has a motive for clipping the victim's wings. Can Skye piece together the clues before the killer cuts another cord and sends her dreams crashing down?

Down through the decades this art has produced stunning images that literally capture a story whether it be in War photography, celebrity mishaps, even political downfalls and much else besides.   
   
  In this volume whilst our classic authors are at the early edge of photography’s development, they use it in ways that are both innovative and atmospheric as very often the camera and the photographer become a central part in many fascinating stories.
