A reporter, a police detective and a university professor all find themselves entangled in a web of mystery as a serial killer strikes in the college town of West Chester, Pa. Ellis Carter, a young journalist at the West Chester Daily Local, sparks his own investigation when the woman he meets goes missing and must reach into his past to revive a passion for paranormal research. Newly promoted Detective Kerri Gallagher is trying to escape her past, but the same mistakes keep haunting her as she tries to solve a missing persons case that regrettably turns into her first murder investigation. Professor Grayson West, whose life has been turned upside down through tragedy and heartbreak, is trying to rebuild his life, but several obstacles lead to questions and startling answers he can't bear to share with anyone. As each searches for answers of their own, it will take all they have to see the forest through the trees.

From the author of Earth: An Intimate History, an exuberant "biography" of four acres of woodland, evoking a cosmos of living and inanimate things and imagining its millennia of existence A few years ago, award-winning scientist Richard Fortey purchased four acres of woodland in the Chiltern Hills of Oxfordshire, England. The Wood for the Trees is the joyful, lyrical portrait of what he found there. With one chapter for each month, we move through the seasons: tree felling in January, moth hunting in June, finding golden mushrooms in September. Fortey, along with the occasional expert friend, investigates the forest top to bottom, discovering a new species and explaining the myriad connections that tie us to nature and nature to itself. His textured, evocative prose and gentle humor illuminate the epic story of a small forest. But he doesn't stop at mere observation. The Wood for the Trees uses the forest as a springboard back through time, full of rich and unexpected tales of the people, plants, and animals that once called the land home. With Fortey's help, we come to see a universe in miniature.

In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.
