When he receives a job offer from Indiana Polytechnic that will help him turn his research in ocean cleanup technology into reality, the decision to move to Riverbend is easy. He soon settles into an open apartment above his aunt Marlene’s coffee shop and discovers that his aunt’s other tenant is an old friend from college. They quickly pick up their friendship where they left off, with her clever FBI K-9 tagging along. FBI Special Agent MJ Reid is an instructor at the Riverbend K-9 Academy. She’s come a long way from being nose-deep in chemistry textbooks to landing her dream job training FBI K-9s. Her success has always relied on her clear rules and careful detachment from the people impacted by her work. And of course, on her ever-reliable partner, Bear, a border collie/Lab mix with a well-trained nose. When Bear detects traces of a toxin near Brady’s apartment, MJ soon realizes that the company funding Brady’s research has their own secrets to hide. And they’ll have to team up to stop them before it’s too late. Pawing the Line is Book 4 in the Riverbend K-9 Series.

The Cultures of Alternative Mobilities presents a series of ethnographic studies, focusing on the local cultures of mobilities and immobilities, emphasizing the everyday sense of contingency and heterogeneity that accompanies them. Compensating for the excess of theory and criticism based on the notion of 'hypermobilities', this book sheds light on the nuanced differences and idiosyncrasies of mobility, with a view to rediscovering meanings and lifestyles marked by movement and immobility. Original, empirical and global case studies are presented by an international team of scholars, exploring the complex, negotiated and contingent nature of the social worlds of movement. By avoiding sweeping generalizations on the deeply connected and readily mobile nature of society as a whole, this volume sheds light on the diversity of mobility modes in an accessible and interdisciplinary form that will be of key interest, to sociologists, geographers and scholars of human mobility, communication and culture.

The bicycle is fast becoming a ubiquitous form of transportation in cities all over the world, making our urban spaces more efficient, more livable and healthier. But many of those bicycles disappear into basements and garages when the warm months end, parked there by owners fearful of the cold, snow and ice that winter brings. But does it have to be that way? Canadian writer and journalist Tom Babin started questioning this dogma after being stuck in winter commuter traffic one dreary and cold December morning and dreaming about the happiness that bicycle commuting had brought him all summer long. So he did something about it. He pulled on some thermal underwear, dragged his bike down from the rafters of his garage and set out on a mission to answer a simple but beguiling question: is it possible to happily ride a bike in winter? That question took him places he never expected. Over years of trial and error, research and more than his share of snow and ice, he discovered an unknown history of biking for snow and ice, and a new generation designed to make riding in winter safe and fun. He unearthed the world's most bike-friendly winter city and some new approaches to winter cycling from places all over the world. He also looked inward, to discover how the modern world shapes our attitudes toward winter. And perhaps most importantly, he discovered the unique kind of bliss that can only come by pedalling through softly falling snow on a quiet winter night.

In Mareshna, your soul is your magic. The nobility will do anything to take it. The Dracodar called it a game. Far’an Senjin. The Game of Souls. It is anything but. Soul is life. It is death. It is the path to the throne. But no human was ever born with the ability to wield all the soul cycles. With soul magic, the Dracodar ruled over humankind. Until a mysterious plague befell the Dracodar, killing millions. A pestilence for which there was no cure. A pestilence that left humans untouched. Desperate to save their race, the Dracodar bred with humankind. And in so doing, revealed a secret. Humans could wield soul by ingesting Dracodar blood and flesh. Humankind rose to overthrow the Dracodar. They enslaved the creatures, bred them like livestock. Across the world of Mareshna, Dracodar descendants are the lowest of the low, the dregs, fodder for human nobility. But what has fallen may yet rise.
