Award-winning author Jonathan Herbert Chasing Palms, a gripping novel that made it to the finals of the William Faulkner Literary Competition, we follow Butch Sands, who finds himself thrust into the Miami PD after a violent encounter that leaves him reeling. As he tries to come to terms with his past, Butch teams up with his grieving brother and a young, reckless cop to track down the perpetrator and bring them to justice. Praise for Jonathan Herbert “...vivid imagery throughout the story truly brings it to life...” —Marcy Shortuse, Editor of Gasparilla Magazine and the Boca Beacon "In Silver King, terrorism and piracy are very much alive in the twenty-first century. Herbert highlights both of these absolute truths in this suspenseful adventure, played out beyond the southern-most tip of Florida." —Gulf Coast Times "Herbert finds a way to reel you in to a disconnected paradise where wealth trumps justice, most of the time." —Cincinnati Enquirer for Banyan Street "A riveting, engaging first effort by a budding author with talent." —Englewood Sun for Banyan Street "Herbert is right on point with his novel. Suspenseful, intriguing, and a little shocking." —Gulf Coast Times for Banyan Street

At first, I didn’t find fog – fog found me. Liminal, transformative and increasingly elusive – far from a simple cloud of water droplets, fog is a state of mind. As mist drifted through a copse of trees, turning a familiar place strange and otherworldly, Laura Pashby snapped a photograph and an obsession began. Pashby hunts for fog, walks and swims in it, explores its often pivotal role in literature, mythology and history, as well as its environmental significance. There has been a 50 per cent drop in 'fog events' in the past fifty years, fog is drifting away without us noticing and the ecological impact could be calamitous. As she journeys to the foggiest places she can find, Pashby immerses herself in Dartmoor’s dangerous fog, searches for the Scottish haar, experiences Venice’s magical mist, tell us the myths behind the River Severn’s fog and the shipwrecks it hides. It’s easy to get lost in fog, but sometimes it’s where imperceptible things can be found, including in ourselves. Chasing Fog is a captivating meditation on fog and mist, a love song to weather and nature’s power to transform.
