Book Description
The simple life does still exist in the twenty-first-century. Join Deep Digger Dan on the adventure of his life! Our reluctant hero is a loner, unlucky in love, unemployed, and living in a static motorhome on the beautiful coast of Yorkshire. All he wants is to be left alone to work, drink beer, smoke a few cigarettes and enjoy the world's most misunderstood hobby - metal detecting. But everything changes when he's asked to track down a stolen hoard of diamonds from a famous London jewellery heist that happened fifty years ago... And so begins a wild adventure that spans the length and breadth of a small part of Yorkshire! Will Dan finally make something of his life? Why does he always shout the words 'Come on, get in?' Will he find the stolen diamonds and stamp his name on the metal detecting hall of fame? Why does he always make mental notes to himself? Will he succeed in turning the heads of the hottest girls in Yorkshire? Will he become an airline pilot like his auntie wants him to? All these questions, but probably no others will be answered! Follow Dan's hilarious and exciting adventures through life, metal detecting, and trying to fit into a modern world and rat-race that he just can't relate to. Adventures aren't made like this anymore! Come on, get in!

Book Description
A Lambda Literary Award Finalist "Captivating…" — Publishers Weekly"Jean Ryan brings to the short story what Mary Oliver does to poetry." — The Los Angeles Review"Survival Skills is a collection of understated, elegant narratives that throw a keen eye on the interconnectedness of humans with the natural world." — Lambda Literary"This book will bring you closer to the things that are important in life." — Lori Ostlund, author of The Bigness of the World Jean Ryan’s debut collection tells stories of nature and of human nature… The characters who inhabit Jean Ryan’s graceful, imaginative collection of stories are survivors of accidents and acts of nature, of injuries both physical and emotional. Ryan writes of beauty and aging, of love won and lost—with characters enveloped in the mysteries of the natural world and the animal kingdom. In “Greyhound,” a woman brings home a rescued dog for her troubled partner in hopes that they might heal one another—while the dog in “What Gretel Knows” is the keeper of her owner’s deepest secrets. In “Migration,” a recently divorced woman retreats to a lakefront cabin where she is befriended by a mysterious Canada goose just as autumn begins to turn to winter. As a tornado ravages three towns in “The Spider in the Sink,” a storm chaser’s wife spares the life of a spider as she anxiously waits for her husband to return. And in “A Sea Change,” a relationship falls victim to a woman’s obsession with the world below the waves. The world is at once a beautiful and perilous place, Jean Ryan’s stories tell us, and our lives are defined by the shelters we build.

Book Description
The ancient Abbots Bromley Horn Dance has taken place in Abbots Bromley, England every year since 1226 and has roots beginning in pagan times. Thousands of years ago back in the Stone Age, men with bows and arrows used to stalk other men wearing animal skins and head-dresses. They used to mime a successful hunt as a symbolic empowerment over an actual quarry. The year 2000 is to be no different except that this time, human blood is to be spilt. After a fluke accident and a death, strange things start to happen to Neville’s ex-fiancée, to her parents and to her husband and his twin brother when they attend a rugby union football test match in Dublin, Ireland. Just what is this strange power that Neville, (Morris dancer, laboratory technician and part-time art student) seems to have over them all? Do vampires really exist? And most important of all, can a painting make a thing of beauty last forever?
