How do waves break, and what makes good surf? What are dangerous rip currents, and how do you spot one? What should you do if you get caught in one? Australia’s best-known surf scientist, Rob “Dr. Rip” Brander, takes readers on a fascinating and entertaining journey to uncover how beaches form and behave, the science of waves and currents, and how beaches respond to storms and climate change. He explains where the sand we lay our towels on came from, how the tides that wash up new treasures each day work, why no two beaches are exactly the same, and why some of them are disappearing. He also explores some of the hazards to watch out for, from rip currents to tsunamis to the (unlikely) event you find yourself swimming with a shark. Whether you’re a surfer looking for the perfect wave or you just enjoy hitting the beach with friends and family, this book is a must-read for all ocean lovers.

Attractive, middle-aged Emily Hughes appeared to have it all as the wife of a successful and handsome husband. Suddenly her husband asks for a divorce. Devastated by the divorce, wounded by the Catholic Church's annulment of her thirty-five year marriage and misunderstood by her adult daughters, Emily realizes that she, too, had been unfulfilled in the marriage. Emily has lost her spiritual compass and sets out on a journey to remap the rest of her life. What sets this novel apart from others in this genre is the spiritual nature of Emily's quest. Her faith is both challenged and enriched as she explores new friendships with a free-spirited neighbor and friend, Frances, who accompanies her to Nepal to trek through the Himalayas. On this trek she meets a young Buddhist Sherpa and Roman Catholic priest floundering in his priesthood and finally an enigmatic man who has just spent the past year in a Buddhist monastery. Emily's journey with the help of her new friends leads her to find new ways to get on with her life.

The seven-year-old Mari is playing on the beach outside of the house where she lives. It’s a rainy day in October and mum’s new boyfriend, Petter, is visiting. Mari doesn’t like him. She dreams that her real daddy – she only remembers him from a black and white picture on her nightstand – will one day come to visit. —Daddy? Is that you? Her voice quivered. The last word was barely audible, nothing more than a small, hopeful breath. He nodded, bent down and opened his arms. —Yes, Little Wagtail. Come to daddy. *** There are many examples from real life of young girls held captive by disgusting men. Some of them for years and often in dark cellars in quite ordinary residential areas where no one knows what’s going on inside their neighbours’ four walls. Could the same thing happen in Kodal, the peaceful, small village right outside of Sandefjord in Norway?
