However, her mission leads her to the city of Fom, where she uncovers an ancient device that could threaten them all. A tragic event awakens an ancient intelligence in her mind, and Syrina becomes consumed with the need for revenge against those responsible. The Black Wall: Syrina discovers Anna and Pasha, survivors of General Mann’s assault, and believes they may hold the key to discovering her own identity. However, unexpected feelings for Pasha complicate matters. With the help of Ves, a former pirate, they pursue Mann while facing growing tensions within the Church of N’narad. Will Syrina find the answers she seeks and achieve revenge against her master, and at what cost?

With a secret stolen from her friends, Syrina gains the upper hand in the Grace of Fom's war for independence, while the schemes of the Archbishop threaten disaster. Meanwhile, former High Merchant Ehrina Ka'id and her servant seek Syrina's help to execute their own plans, and General Mann, now aligned with pirate Ves, finds himself embroiled in a conspiracy that could spell the end of civilization. Can they put aside their differences and act in time to prevent another Age of Ashes?

Book Description
In Tides: The Science and Spirit of the Ocean, writer, sailor, and surfer Jonathan White takes readers across the globe to discover the science and spirit of ocean tides. In the Arctic, White shimmies under the ice with an Inuit elder to hunt for mussels in the dark cavities left behind at low tide; in China, he races the Silver Dragon, a twenty-five-foot tidal bore that crashes eighty miles up the Qiantang River; in France, he interviews the monks that live in the tide-wrapped monastery of Mont Saint-Michel; in Chile and Scotland, he investigates the growth of tidal power generation; and in Panama and Venice, he delves into how the threat of sea level rise is changing human culture—the very old and very new. Tides combines lyrical prose, colorful adventure travel, and provocative scientific inquiry into the elemental, mysterious paradox that keeps our planet’s waters in constant motion. Photographs, scientific figures, line drawings, and sixteen color photos dramatically illustrate this engaging, expert tour of the tides.

An odd collection of Ben's personal possessions kept by an old Indian find their way to one of his descendents. Earl Armstrong, a young tribal forester, discovers that the objects each have stories that may solve this 140 year old crime and he is assisted in his quest for the truth by his girl friend, a doctoral candidate in neuroscience and psychotherapy; an Indian Shaman; and an Indian spirit figure. The only problem is that while learning about the past and his great-great grandfather's adventures and mysterious death, Earl's own life becomes involved in a murder and he is stalked by a person who is also linked to his dead ancestor. Historical events in the early years of the Oregon Territory, Native American legend, and interesting characters of past and present are woven into a mystery where both reach a turning point simultaneously.

Enjoy Robert Whitlow’s Tides of Truth series an e-collection! Deeper Water Leaving behind the farming life and her large, Bible-believing family, Tami Taylor accepts a job with a prestigious Savannah, Georgia, law firm. There, she quickly discovers the politics of a city with secrets that some will kill to keep hidden. In the murky waters of Savannah's shoreline, a young law student is under fire as she tries her first case at a prominent and established law firm. A complex mix of betrayal and deception quickly weaves its way through the case and her life, as she uncovers dark and confusing secrets about the man she's defending—and the senior partners of the firm. How deep will the conspiracy run? Will she have to abandon her true self to fulfill a higher calling? And how far will she have to go to discover the truth behind a tragic cold case? Higher Hope Tami Taylor faces impossible challenges in life, law, and love—until she discovers a higher hope. Competition is tough at the Savannah law firm where Tami Taylor serves as a law clerk. But Tami's work sets her apart—and the firm's partners see something special in her. So they assign her to a libel case against an abrasive, outspoken preacher who is either a prophet or a lunatic. On the surface it appears to be an open and shut case; the preacher seems fully outside the bounds of law. And Tami's strict religious upbringing could be the firm's ace-in-the-hole. But as the investigation continues, Tami is troubled by the preacher's uncanny prophetic abilities. And their client seems to be hiding something. Tami returns to her hometown, struggling with several critical choices—as two very different men from the firm vie for her heart. Just when the challenges seem insurmountable, hope for Tami arrives from a surprising place. And it's a higher hope than she's ever imagined. Greater Love As the storm clouds gather, Tami does her best to weather the growing turbulence in every area of her life. She's just accepted a job with a law firm but now wonders if she made the right decision. She has two strong men vying for her heart—and is about to lose them both if she can't determine which one is right for her. And Tami's new case is anything but simple. When she first meets her prospective client, she immediately knows the rough young teen is lying, guilty . . . and utterly terrified of something beyond the charges she's facing. What she doesn't realize is just how far reaching the effects of the case will go. Or how close to home the deadly results will hit. For by the time the storm breaks, someone close to Tami will have paid the ultimate price. Through it all, Tami will experience greater sacrifice, greater friendship, and greater love than she's ever known.

Book Description
#1 New York Times bestselling author of Tidelands—the “searing portrait of a woman that resonates across the ages” (People)—returns with an evocative historical novel tracking the rise of the Tidelands family in London, Venice, and New England. Midsummer Eve 1670. Two unexpected visitors arrive at a shabby warehouse on the south side of the River Thames. The first is a wealthy nobleman seeking the lover he deserted twenty-one years earlier. Now James Avery has everything to offer: a fortune, a title, and the favor of the newly restored King Charles II. He believes that the warehouse’s poor owner Alinor has the one thing he cannot buy—his son and heir. The second visitor is a beautiful widow from Venice in deepest mourning. She claims Alinor as her mother-in-law and tells her of the death of Rob—Alinor’s son—drowned in the dark tides of the Venice lagoon. Meanwhile, Alinor’s brother Ned, in faraway New England, is making a life for himself between in the narrowing space between the jarring worlds of the English newcomers and the American Indians as they move towards inevitable war. Alinor writes to him that she knows—without doubt—that her son is alive and the widow is an imposter. But how can she prove it? Set in the poverty and glamour of Restoration London, in the golden streets of Venice, and on the tensely contested frontier of early America, this is a novel of greed and desire: for love, for wealth, for a child, and for home.
