When FBI Agent Kaitlyn Knight discovers her brother-in-law is Vyper - the notorious cyber-criminal and murderer wanted by the FBI - Kait doesn't question her duty to arrest him. But when he murders her sister in front of her, leaving her infant niece motherless, Kait vows to hunt him down and bring him to justice while raising the baby. Three years later, and not even a whisper of a lead in her search, Kait is about to give up hope of ever finding Vyper. All of that changes when he goes on a murderous spree taunting Kait with clues that she and homicide detective Sam Murdock must solve before her devious brother-in-law takes another life. As the body count rises, Sam discovers the killing spree is really about striking back at Kait.

Dark Watcher
Summary
The Lightbringer:
Theodora Morgan knows she's a little strange. Her talent for healing has marked her as different all through a life spent moving from town to town when someone notices her strangeness. Now, she has a home, and she doesn't want to leave, but she's been found. The Crusade wants her dead because she's psychic; the Dark wants to feed on her talent; and then, there's Dante. Tall and grim and armed with black-bladed knives, guns, and a sword, he says he's here to protect her. But what if he's what Theo needs protection from most?
The Watcher:
Dante is a Watcher, sworn by Circle Lightfall to protect the Lightbringers. His next assignment? Watch over Theo. She doesn't know she's a Lightbringer; she doesn't know she's surrounded by enemies; and she doesn't know she's been marked for death by a bunch of fanatics. He can't protect her if she doesn't trust him, but how can she possibly trust a man scarred by murder and warfare - a man who smells like the same Darkness Theo has been running from all her life?

A Wing and a Prayer
Summary
Lupé might be the very last Guadalupe petrel alive, and he knows the best way to save his flock is to find the Islands of Life and a mate. The problem is the well-meaning man-flock that's decided to keep him safe...in a cage. But Lupé has hatched an escape plan all his own! Told in a "Disneyesque" style, A Wing and a Prayer will have you smiling and laughing as you're introduced to wonderful characters but also important themes, especially the environment. Often compared to works such as Jonathan Livingston Seagull, Watership Down, and The Jungle Books, this 25th Anniversary Edition also features an introduction by Mark Tercek, President and CEO of The Nature Conservancy.

Makoona
Summary
Welcome to the inspiring story of Binti, a female octopus who lives in the Makoona coral reef, and Kemar, a Cambodian boy who fishes the reef. As a mollusk without a shell, Binti believes she's missing something. but the reef is a dangerous place to search for anything, let alone the shell that will make her complete and let her communicate with the spirit-fish. But helped by her friends and a psychedelic octopus who speaks in Grateful Dead lyrics, the search is on. Fifteen-year-old Kemar, a boatsman fleeing the Khmer Rouge, fishes the waters around Makoona, where he crosses the path of a strange octopus and befriends both a Vietnam vet and an old American mechanic who claims she was once a world-famous aviator. Makoona will make you laugh out loud as it transports you into the world of the coral reefs and takes you on an island adventure that never loses sight of environmental concerns, personal fulfillment, friendship, self-awareness, and the tenets of eco-literature that Morano created in his unforgettable first novel A Wing and a Prayer. Like Wing and a Prayer, Makoona is a children's book for adults and a young adult novel with universal themes, a story that you can enjoy by yourself or share with the entire family. The book features a special introduction by Kathryn Fuller, president of the World Wildlife Fund.

Out There, Somewhere
Summary
When Maputa is caught in a fishing net off the coast of the Comoros, neither she nor the fishermen believe she will survive. But rather than meeting the Spirit-fish, the ancient coelacanth finds herself on display as a living fossil at SeaTopia on the Florida coast. There she joins a motley crew of captive sea creatures and the man-tide who both confine and care for them - including Samantha, a neglected teen who finds purpose at the aquarium. At SeaTopia, the sea creatures and the man-tide both must navigate the complex world of care, captivity, and conservation. When the man-tide destroys the ocean and its inhabitants, are Maputa and her friends better off in the freedom and danger of the wild or the protection and confinement of the aquarium? Or does the Spirit-fish have another plan in mind? Listeners of previous books in The John Morano Eco-Adventure Series will recognize the universal themes and may even spot a familiar character or two! Like A Wing and a Prayer and Makoona, this latest book continues the focus on environmental concerns, friendship, and self-awareness that are key concepts for the series, and can be enjoyed on its own or shared with the family.

Web of Shadows
Summary
A killer is lurking in the shadows... FBI agent Nina Brandt loves her job. Sure, she's made some enemies, but she knows she's making the world a better place. It's lonely at times, but she has good friends to get her through. It's a good life. Little does she guess that her past is about to come back and haunt her...in more ways than one. When Navy SEAL Quinn Stone learns that his geeky younger brother, Ty, hacked into the TSA's No Fly List, he would rather take a bullet than go to his former fiancée, Nina Brandt, for help. Five years ago, she resented his commitment to his SEAL team and gave him an ultimatum-her or the team. He chose the team. But now, he and his brother have no other choice...not if he doesn't want to see the kid behind bars. Nina has finally moved on, but she can't resist Ty's plea for help...especially when he drops a bomb that could rock national security. The laptop he'd used to hack the TSA has been stolen. Fearing terrorists would do just about anything to get their hands on this list, Nina agrees to take the case to her team. After all, this will become an FBI matter and Quinn's help won't be needed...as much as she's starting to want it. But the thief has more on his mind than just the list. He's been waiting for a chance to get back at the woman who sent him to prison two years ago. And he intends to make her pay-in the most painful way possible... Susan Sleeman is a best-selling author of clean-read/listen and inspirational romantic suspense books.
