The Wind Is Not a River is Brian Payton's gripping tale of survival and an epic love story in which a husband and wife—separated by the only battle of World War II to take place on American soil—fight to reunite in Alaska's starkly beautiful Aleutian Islands. Following the death of his younger brother in Europe, journalist John Easley is determined to find meaning in his loss. Leaving behind his beloved wife, Helen, he heads north to investigate the Japanese invasion of Alaska's Aleutian Islands, a story censored by the U.S. government. While John is accompanying a crew on a bombing run, his plane is shot down over the island of Attu. He survives only to find himself exposed to a harsh and unforgiving wilderness, known as “the birthplace of winds.” There, John must battle the elements, starvation, and his own remorse while evading discovery by the Japanese. Alone at home, Helen struggles with the burden of her husband's disappearance. Caught in extraordinary circumstances, in this new world of the missing, she is forced to reimagine who she is—and what she is capable of doing. Somehow, she must find John and bring him home, a quest that takes her into the farthest reaches of the war, beyond the safety of everything she knows.

Cyclone 1878. The cyclone of 1878 was an actual hurricane that started in the Caribbean and raced all the way up to Lake Superior, taking over 22,000 lives in its wake. The facts of the hurricane remain cloudy, but this story is about the fictional island of St. Morantz and how the island faces the cyclone and overcomes adversity, changing the course of history and making their island paradise a new jewel of the Caribbean. This is a story of how one man changed the island and how his courage forced the wealthy plantation owners to end slavery in order to save their island in the cyclone's aftermath of destruction. This book is for 10 years old and up
