Halloween is traditionally filled with ghosts, goblins, and ghouls but this year the holiday brings something more sinister to the small South Carolina barrier island of Folly Beach. The popular fall holiday has never been a favorite of retired bureaucrat Chris Landrum but that didn’t stop his friend Charles Fowler from convincing him to tour a haunted house sponsored by a local charity. In addition to being faced with the scary scenes that appear in most haunted houses, they stumble across a dead body—a real dead body.

Private eye Jim Knighthorse just wanted a quiet vacation with his girlfriend Cindy at a quaint seaside inn in Carmel-by-the-Sea. Ocean views, overpriced seafood, and absolutely no dead bodies. That was the plan. But when a woman is found murdered in a locked hotel room -- with a sand dollar placed delicately in her mouth -- Jim's plans vanish like fog over the Pacific. The victim is a ghost from the past, hiding under an alias, and the inn is packed with quirky guests, each more suspicious than the last. Someone here is lying. Someone here is watching. And someone might just be next. Armed ...

A change in the colour of the light usually called me in the morning. By a certain hour, the long, vertical chinks in our western gable, where the boards had shrunk and separated, flashed suddenly into my eyes as stripes of dazzling blue, at once so dark and splendid that I used to marvel how the qualities could be combined. At an earlier hour, the heavens in that quarter were still quietly coloured, but the shoulder of the mountain which shuts in the canyon already glowed with sunlight in a wonderful compound of gold and rose and green; and this too would kindle, although more mildly and with rainbow tints, the fissures of our crazy gable.

He didn’t want revenge. He didn’t want redemption. He wanted out...on his own terms. Emmett “Red” Callahan was supposed to disappear inside Alcatraz, the coldest, hardest prison in America. A decorated Navy engineer turned convict, Red keeps his head down and his mind sharp, Waiting. Watching. Planning. Because no cage, no matter how well built, can hold a man who refuses to be broken. But when the fog rolls in, so does his chance to vanish, and with it, a race against time, tides, and the eyes of everyone determined to see him fail. With only a stitched-together raft, a stolen tide...

What's the difference between a dream and a delusion? For David Rich, it took a sinking sailboat, months stranded in Mexican ports, and countless mechanical disasters to figure it out—and the answer will surprise you. Most sailing memoirs celebrate competence, seamanship, and triumph over the elements.

Sail the World? celebrates something far more valuable: the courage to be terrible at something and do it ...
