In the turbulent years after the rise of the Berlin Wall, Germany stood dangerously divided between freedom and Communism. Dodging border patrols and guard posts, a silent few were able to cross the borders of the Iron Curtain to deliver needed supplies, always at the risk of their own lives. This is the past Faith Whitney knew. The daughter of an active smuggler of religious paraphernalia, Faith was raised on the danger that such a life brought with it, a danger that can rip lives apart, even that of a mother and daughter. Now grown and living in 1989 Germany, Faith continues to smuggle goods across the border, narrowly slipping by the East German Stasi each time. But her activities haven't gone unnoticed. The Stasi have recruited her to deliver a package to Moscow, a package that must be delivered within forty-eight hours . . . or Faith will be eliminated. Her payment: the long-desired location of her missing father. The danger mounts as Faith is secretly contacted by the beautiful and seductive Colonel Bogdanov of the KGB, who also wants the package at any cost. Barely surviving harsh interrogations, and unsure of whom to trust, Faith turns to her ex-fiancée, Naval Officer Max Summer, the only man with the know-how to get her and her delivery to Moscow in one piece. On the run, the more they discover about the package, the more they realize that delivering it will likely cost them their lives. Little do they both know that the package is part of a larger plan, one that could affect the result of the Cold War in ways no one ever imagined. Raelynn J. Hillhouse has constructed an engrossing novel of espionage, action, and heart-pounding danger. Told with knowledge and authenticity, Rift Zone takes you inside the workings of communist East Germany and the Soviet Union.

“Brilliant . . . Rooted in the shifting California landscape, this elegiac yet hopeful book is . . . dedicated to grieving the world as we know it.” —Ada Limón, author of The Carrying This collection of poems traces literal and metaphoric fault lines—rifts between past and present, childhood and adulthood, what is and what was. Circling Tess Taylor’s hometown—an ordinary California suburb lying along the Hayward fault—these poems unearth strata that include a Spanish land grant, a bloody land grab, gun violence, valley girls, strip malls, redwood trees, and the painful history of Japanese internment. Taylor’s ambitious and masterful poems read her home state’s historic violence against our world’s current unsteadinesses—mass eviction, housing crises, deportation, inequality. They also ponder what it means to try to bring up children along these rifts. What emerges is a powerful core sample of America at the brink—equally tuned to maternal and to geologic time. At once sorrowful and furious, tender and fierce, Rift Zone is startlingly observant, relentlessly curious—a fearsome tremor of a book. “Taylor vividly and memorably renders the complexities of an America of violence and rifts.” —Publishers Weekly “Unearthing and sifting the seismic layers of her own East Bay locale, she’s created a haunting American elegy.” —Jonathan Lethem, author of The Feral Detective

Excerpt from Displacement of the South Flank of Kilauea Volcano: The Result of Forceful Intrusion of Magma Into the Rift Zones Seismic evidence has long indicated that the south flank of Kilauea Volcano is mobile. Examination of triangulation, trilatera tion, and leveling data obtained throughout the 20th century shows that the south flank of Kilauea has been displaced upward and away from the rift zones by as much as several metres. The amount of horizontal displacement approximates the probable amount of dila tion that accompanies the intrusion of magma as dikes in the rift zones and is greatest for periods of most intense intrusive activity, as evidenced by the frequency of eruptions. Displacement and seismic events on the south flank take place soon after intrusive activity, indicating that the displacement is the result of forceful intrusion in the rift zones, not the cause of relatively passive intrusion. The dikes are thought to be nearly vertical or to dip steeply southward, on the basis of both interpretation of seismic and displacement data for Kilauea itself and comparison with dikes exposed in older, eroded Hawaiian shield volcanoes. In contrast to the south flank, seismic and geodetic data indicate that the north flank is virtually immobile. This contrast is believed to reflect the fact that Kilauea was built on the south slope of Mauna Loa and was consequently influenced by the gravitational stress sys tem of Mauna Loa, which favors displacement away from the vol canio edifice. The north flank of Kilauea is effectively buttressed by Mauna Loa, whereas the south flank is unbuttressed and free to move away from the edifice when prompted by forceful intrusion of magma. The active part of the east rift zone of Kilauea has apparently migrated several kilometres southward with time. This is shown by the location of recent vents and by the location of the axis of a posi tive gravity anomaly along the north edge of the active part of the rift zone. The southward migration helps explain several features of the geometry of the east rift zone, particularly its prominent bend near Kilauea Caldera. The southwest rift zone and the caldera also show some evidence of southward migration. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This volume contains papers giving an interdisciplinary review of 12 major rift systems from North and South America, Africa, Europe and Asia. These papers are written by an international group of academic and industrial specialists each of whom is most knowledgeable about the respective rift. The analyzed rifts were selected on the basis of availability of an as-complete-as-possible geological and geophysical data base. Thirteen papers deal with geodynamic processes governing the evolution of rifts. A comprehensive digest of the available stratigraphic, structural, geophysical and petrological data, together with an extensive list of references, is provided for each of the analyzed rift systems. The megatectonic setting and dynamics of evolution of each basin is discussed. Geodynamic models are tested against the record of the analyzed rifts. The question of "active" as against "passive" rifting is addressed. The rifts analyzed range in age from Precambrian to Recent and cover a wide spectrum of megatectonic settings. There is discussion of the evolution of rifts in a plate-tectonic frame. The case histories are followed by discussions addressing the global setting of rifts and geodynamic processes active during the development of rifted basins.
