New York Times Bestseller Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize Winner of the J. Anthony Lukas Award "Nimbly splices together history, science, reporting and personal experiences into a taut and cautiously hopeful narrative.… Egan’s book is bursting with life (and yes, death)." —Robert Moor, New York Times Book Review The Great Lakes—Erie, Huron, Michigan, Ontario, and Superior—hold 20 percent of the world’s supply of surface fresh water and provide sustenance, work, and recreation for tens of millions of Americans. But they are under threat as never before, and their problems are spreading across the continent. The Death and Life of the Great Lakes is prize-winning reporter Dan Egan’s compulsively readable portrait of an ecological catastrophe happening right before our eyes, blending the epic story of the lakes with an examination of the perils they face and the ways we can restore and preserve them for generations to come.

A tenacious young detective with scars both physical and emotional, Beth Young will stop at nothing in her fight for justice for the innocent. Death in the Lakes is the first book in the series. Set in the Lake District, it is perfect for fans of Joy Ellis, LJ Ross, and Peter James. Detective Beth Young has just joined the Cumbrian major crimes team when a body is found posed in a ritualistic manner - arms spread and graceful wings attached - at a crumbling castle in the hills of the Lake District. The entire police force is on red alert. But Beth begins to feel she's the only one who can follow the disturbing clues left by the twisted killer. Because she doesn't think like everyone else. To Beth, crimes are puzzles she can solve. Even if real life is a little harder. As more bodies are discovered in derelict stately homes across the Lake District, Beth knows she's in a race against time. But the killer is looking for another victim to add to his collection... Will Beth be able to save her? Or will he get there first? Readers are loving Death in the Lakes: 'I was absolutely gripped... A sophisticated and gripping read that will send your heart racing.

“Lakes is my favorite kind of natural history: meticulously researched, timely, comprehensive, and written with imagination and verve.”—Jerry Dennis, author of The Living Great Lakes Lakes might be the most misunderstood bodies of water on earth. And while they may seem commonplace, without lakes our world would never be the same. In this revealing look at these lifegiving treasures, John Richard Saylor shows us just how deep our connection to still waters run. Lakes is an illuminating tour through the most fascinating lakes around the world. Whether it’s Lake Vostok, located more than two miles beneath the surface of Antarctica, whose water was last exposed to the atmosphere perhaps a million years ago; Lake Baikal in southern Siberia, the world’s deepest and oldest lake formed by a rift in the earth’s crust; or Lake Nyos, the so-called Killer Lake that exploded in 1986, resulting in hundreds of deaths, Saylor reveals to us the wonder that exists in lakes found throughout the world. Along the way we learn all the many forms that lakes take—how they come to be and how they feed and support ecosystems—and what happens when lakes vanish.

Private Investigator, Nick McCord, suggested that he and Monica Barnhart, his girlfriend, get married on a Great Lake Cruise ship. She was excited by the idea and asked her best friend, Pamela Pierce, to be her Maid of Honor. Nick asked Tom Walker, a long time friend, to be his Best Man. They were all looking forward to a great time. Everything was going well until a man was brutally murdered on the ship. Captain Klausen knew Nick was a detective and dragged Nick into the investigation of the man's death. The victim was not the man the cabin was registered to, and the man it was registered to was not on the ship. Several pieces of jewelry had been stolen from a museum and were found at the murder scene. While Nick was trying to find out the identity of the victim and how the jewelry got on the ship when another man was murdered. As the investigation progressed, Nick suddenly found himself looking for an old adversary. Death on the Lakes is the fifth in the series of Nick McCord Mysteries.

"Set in the tumultuous days of 1970 as the University of Wisconsin anti-war movement imploded after a deadly campus bombing, Death on Cache Lake takes the reader on a dark odyssey through the lake wilds of Ontario, and the woods and small towns of Wisconsin. A fishing trip in Quetico Provincial Park turns violently tragic when friends Caleb Pratt and John Short cross paths with a former acquaintance who is running for his life, aided and abetted by a sociopathic mercenary. Caleb and John's adrenaline-filled flight through Ontario to unravel the conspiracy and save their lives takes them on trains, hitch-hiked rides on trucks, cross country skis, and canoes, all at a breakneck pace climaxing in an unforgettable reckoning"--Page 4 of cover.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The St. Lawrence Seaway, which was created to connect the Atlantic Ocean with the five inland seas, did not conquer nature, but instead unleashed it in the form of an ecological catastrophe. #2 The Mediterranean Sea was dry for hundreds of thousands of years, but around 5. 3 million years ago, it was flooded by the Atlantic Ocean. The Black Sea was isolated from the Mediterranean Sea around 7,600 years ago. #3 The Great Lakes were once isolated from the Atlantic Ocean, but erosion has been taking place at Niagara Falls for thousands of years. It is expected that the falls will disappear in about 50,000 years, which is geologically speaking, pretty soon. #4 The St. Lawrence River, which flows into the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, is a map-taunting example of how the tendril of blue that stretches out from Lake Ontario turns viciously narrow and impenetrable to upstream navigation just upstream of Montreal.
