An unforgettable story of children in wartime, of heroism at sea, and - above all - of courage and the power of the human spirit. On September 17, 1940, at a little after 10 at night, a German submarine torpedoed the passenger liner S.S. City of Benares in the North Atlantic. There were 406 people on board, but the ship's prized passengers were 90 children whose parents had elected to send their boys and girls away from Great Britain to escape the ravages of World War II. They were considered lucky, headed for quiet, peaceful, and relatively bountiful Canada.

A Swedish army lieutenant drops dead on a shooting range in the desert. Was it an unfortunate accident - or something more nefarious? Ernst Grip, an agent of the Swedish security police, is sent to the Horn of Africa to find out. Once he’s on the ground, however, he quickly discovers he’s on his own. No one wants him snooping around - especially not the US Embassy’s CIA station. Which is no surprise, given that military transport planes are leaving from the base carrying untraceable pallets loaded with cash.

Then again, Clint Tucker has never been like most people. Ushered to the tropical paradise of Kenowai, he and the other winners undertake an island tradition for the cameras, one meant to free a local imprisoned deity. One with very specific requirements that have yet to be met. One that might just be a bit more authentic than any of them expected.

Publisher's Summary
Spending their honeymoon sailing between the small and little-explored islands of the South Pacific is something of which Lyn and Philip have always dreamed. After all, what could be more romantic than sipping from a cool glass of wine whilst anchored off a pristine white beach?
An introduction to a visiting anthropologist doing research for a book she is writing on cannibals soon reveals the sinister underbelly to what the couple had thought was an idyllic island lifestyle. They quickly come to realize that beneath what they had imagined was a life of bliss and serenity lurks a primitive and brutal secret.
The anthropologist soon exposes them to a flesh-eating culture they had assumed no longer existed, and they find themselves being dragged into a world of fear that no honeymoon should include. How they deal with the situation will become a test of their courage and their newly consecrated marriage.

Along the way, he finds the crime may have roots going back decades—and that revenge, corruption, and even Italian cuisine may play a role.

Commissaire Georges Dupin, a Parisian-born caffeine junkie recently relocated from the glamour of Paris to the remote (if picturesque) Breton coast, is not happy when he is dragged from his morning croissant and coffee to the scene of a curious murder.

The legendary 91-year-old hotelier Pierre-Louis Pennec, owner of the Central Hotel, has been found dead.

Daniel Everett, then a Christian missionary, arrived among the Pirahã in 1977 - with his wife and three young children - intending to convert them. What he found was a language that defies all existing linguistic theories and reflects a way of life that evades contemporary understanding. The Pirahã have no counting system and no fixed terms for color. They have no concept of war or of personal property.
