Vincent Watkins, his wife Mariah, along with their three children have life by the horns and appear to have things under control as they are the self-proclaimed King and Queen of the city. Unfortunately Brent Benjamin, who is Mariah's boss and Vince's business partner, has his eyes on the throne and has plans to make the crown his own. With money, power, and respect up for grabs; the foot soldiers, feeling less important always become cut throats. Vincent sat atop a thriving company and organization and was trying to leave his mark on the world, but Brent felt he wasn't receiving his equal share for his role in it all. Very few knew the many bridges burned on Vince's travel to the top, which never posed a problem until now. Not prepared for his world to crumble nor his business to fail, Vince must save the souls of his family, make amends with Mariah, and face the most morally vile decision he's ever had to make. A man will do anything to protect his family and will stop at nothing to protect his legacy. But as he soon finds out, sometimes blood isn't thicker than water. As history seems to repeat itself, Vince and Mariah learn that with death comes life and from life comes death. Nothing is ever as it seems in South Carolina when your last name is Watkins.

In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.
