Forest Fires
A forest fire is any uncontrolled, non-structure fire that occurs in the wilderness. Wildlife behaviour is often complex and variably dependent on factors such as fuel type, moisture content in the fuel, humidity, windspeed, topology, geographic location and ambient temperature. Weather patterns, such as heat waves droughts can also have a dramatic impact on the onset and outcome of wildfires. Fire is sometimes essential for forest regeneration, however, it often destroys forests and has dire social and economic consequences. This book looks at the underlying causes of forest fires, their ecological effects and preventive strategies.
THE JUDGE
Matthew Tucker, a United States District Judge in Houston, Texas, and former Navy SEAL, receives a death threat demanding he grant bail to a defendant in his court charged with sex trafficking.

Is Lucy’s disappearance somehow related to the death threat? Is Lucy, who Matt loves like a daughter, actually his daughter?

In 1760, the 28-year-old Mutis—newly appointed as the personal physician of the Viceroy of the New Kingdom of Granada—embarked on a 48-year exploration of the natural world of northern South America. His thirst for knowledge led Mutis to study the region's flora, become a professor of mathematics, constru...
