In Silent Dog Still Water, Gil faces his toughest challenge since Majoqui Cabrera. Anthony Carlino has conscripted him to save his son, Godfather Nick Carlino, from the deadliest assassin in the world, aka The Ghost. Gil tries to refuse, but in typical godfather fashion, Anthony makes him an offer he can’t refuse. But there’s a hitch—Gil is forbidden to kill the assassin. He must capture him alive and bring him to Anthony. The Ghost, however, has earned his reputation and may prove to be more of a challenge than even Gil and his K9 companions can handle. Plus, he has no restrictions on killing them. Sarah, Billy, Pilgrim, Thor, and others are drawn into the danger as The Ghost turns his sights on Gil, putting all their lives in jeopardy. Gil must grapple with the guilt that his job has again endangered those he loves, while Sarah is forced to deal with emotions over her past actions. Can Gil reach a final decision on the path his life should take while simultaneously managing to keep himself and his companions alive, all while dealing with a new threat that is stalking his mountain? Find out in the thrilling pages of Silent Dog Still Water.

This dictionary assembles more than 1450 English proverbs and their Romanian equivalents. Equivalent proverbs are those which express the same concept, be it literally, such as "All that glitters is not gold" = "Nu tot ce sclipeşte e aur", or with completely different words, such as "Every cloud has a silver lining" = "Nici un rău fără bine." The Dictionary is a very useful reference tool for scholars of the two languages, for researchers working in various associated fields such as linguistics, literature, folklore, anthropology, psychology, sociology, history, and for workers in newer areas such as advertising and contemporary media. The Dictionary is also of interest to diplomats and politicians who try to improve their communication by sharing ideas formulated in some common meaningful expressions; it will assist interpreters and translators, and teachers and students for whom it is important to understand not only what the target culture expresses in the same way as their own, but also what is formulated in a different way. The Dictionary is also of benefit to non-professionals who, for the sheer enjoyment of it, wish to savour the wisdom, wit, poetry and the colourful language of proverbs.
