Not having other kids to play with, Jaime has to find adventures with his dog Cardigan. Life in the Bush Camps with their many animals is all he knows. He is innocent and carefree. Everything is seen through the fearless eyes of a child and his companion, a Cardigan Welsh Corgi, named Cardigan. What lurks in the bushes of Northern Ontario that could cause chaos to a child and his dog? They lived amongst larger than life characters that make an impression on little Jaime. The surrounding wildlife seems threatening, but are they always dangerous? Domestic animals could also cause havoc and need intervention. Sometimes they can even be wilder than the animals in the bush. There is never a dull moment for 6 year-old Jaime with Cardigan around. What dilemma will they encounter next, as they stumble upon the many animals of the bush camps? One thing is for sure: even though Jaime’s intense love of animals leads him to trust them, Cardigan will always know when it’s time to step in and keep his buddy out of harm’s way. Many great adventures await them as they learn more about what lies ahead. Join Jaime and Cardigan in their five exciting and unpredictable adventures.

PI Jake Cardigan is on the run from a mysterious assassin in this sci-fi thriller from the iconic Star Trek actor and New York Times–bestselling author. Jake Cardigan has just returned from Mexico, where he fell in love, nearly died, and broke up the infamous Hokori cartel. But the drug kingpins whose fortunes rest on pushing Tek are still trying to do away with this devilish private eye. During a routine trip to the mall, a well-dressed man tries to stab Cardigan through the heart. After a quick scuffle, the would-be assassin is dead on the floor, and Cardigan is the one who winds up in handcuffs. The dead man was an executive at a hydroponics company—an ordinary worker drone with no apparent reason to kill the detective. An evil mastermind has learned how to make innocent civilians obey his commands, and he will sacrifice an army of zombie assassins if it means getting a clean shot at Cardigan. To stay alive, and out of jail, Cardigan will have to learn to steer clear of the mindless killers of Greater Los Angeles. This ebook features an illustrated biography of William Shatner including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the author’s personal collection.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEWhen a string of young queer men turn up dead in grisly murders, all signs point to the ex-boyfriend--but what should be an open-and-shut case is fraught with tension when BPD homicide detective Malcolm Khalaji joins up with a partner he never wanted. Rigid, ice-cold, and a stickler for the rules, Seong-Jae Yoon is a watchful presence whose obstinacy and unpredictability constantly remind Malcolm why he prefers to work alone. Seong-Jae may be stunningly attractive, a man who moves like a graceful, lethal bird of prey...but he's as impossible to decipher as this case.And if Malcolm doesn't find the key to unravel both in time, another vulnerable young victim may end up dead.ABOUT THE SERIESBaltimore homicide detective Malcolm Khalaji has his own way of doing things: quiet, methodical, logical, effective, not always particularly legal. He's used to working alone--and the last thing he needs is a new partner ten years his junior.Especially one like Seong-Jae Yoon. Icy. Willful. Detached. Stubborn. Seong-Jae is all that and more, impossible to work with and headstrong enough to get them both killed...if they don't kill each other first. Foxlike and sullen, Seong-Jae's disdainful beauty conceals a smoldering and ferocious temper, and as he and Malcolm clash the sparks between them build until neither can tell the difference between loathing and desire.But as bodies pile up at their feet a string of strange, seemingly unrelated murders takes a bizarre turn, leading them deeper and deeper into Baltimore's criminal underworld. Every death carries a dangerous message, another in a trail of breadcrumbs that can only end in blood. Malcolm and Seong-Jae must combine their wits against an unseen killer and trace the unsettling murders to their source. Together, they'll descend the darkest pathways of a twisted mind--and discover just how deep the rabbit hole goes. And if they can't learn to trust each other? Neither will make it out alive.
