The community center reception hall was ablaze with a hundred tiny candles. The wedding rehearsal members were milling around waiting for the bridegroom to return. Josie checked her watch surreptitiously, once again. It had been ten minutes since Brian excused himself to take a phone call. Her fianc was supposed to be on personal leave not taking FBI calls in the middle of their rehearsal dinner. Slipping out the side door, Josie went to remind Brian Miller that their guests were waiting. The playground area beside the center was empty except for the colored chalk blocks of a hopscotch pattern on the concrete. A pair of car keys was lying on the ground at the roots of a rosebush next to the corner of the recreation hall. Where on earth could he be? The PI strolled briskly around the corner to the parking lot but there was no Federal Agent Miller anywhere in sight and his car was still in the parking lot. Taking her cell phone from her jacket pocket, Josie hit #1 on her speed dial and waited. And waited. After the tenth ring with no answer, a knot began to form in her stomach. This was not Brians usual behavior. If he was getting cold feet, he would have just told her, which meant something bad could be going down.

The Missing Ones is a true account of the disappearance of Blanche and Russell Warren. The young hardworking couple disappeared, seemingly without a trace, while driving a 1927 Chevy sedan from Port Angeles, Washington, to their cabin at near the town of Forks Washington. At the cabin, eagerly awaiting their arrival were their two young sons, age eleven and thirteen. An investigation by the sheriff's department in 1929 failed to find the Warrens. However, evidence collected by investigators suggested that they may have driven into Lake Crescent. The case was largely forgotten until 1954 when a local upstart scuba diving club stumbled upon the story. They passed the story on to National Park divers stationed at Olympic National Park in 2001. This is the story of how the Warrens disappeared into mysterious Lake Crescent, what happened during the 1929 investigation, how the dive club found the story and what they did to help solve the case, and finally how the park rangers solved the case.

Turn every walk into a game of detection—from master outdoorsman Tristan Gooley, New York Times-bestselling author of How to Read a Tree and The Natural Navigator When writer and navigator Tristan Gooley journeys outside, he sees a natural world filled with clues. The roots of a tree indicate the sun’s direction; the Big Dipper tells the time; a passing butterfly hints at the weather; a sand dune reveals prevailing wind; the scent of cinnamon suggests altitude; a budding flower points south. To help you understand nature as he does, Gooley shares more than 850 tips for forecasting, tracking, and more, gathered from decades spent walking the landscape around his home and around the world. Whether you’re walking in the country or city, along a coastline, or by night, this is the ultimate resource on what the land, sun, moon, stars, plants, animals, and clouds can reveal—if you only know how to look! Publisher’s Note: The Lost Art of Reading Nature’s Signs was previously published in the UK under the title The Walker’s Guide to Outdoor Clues and Signs.
