Book excerpt: The violent end of an architect leads Juliano, living at the foothills of the Himalayas in India, on a strange trail across the globe to uncover a sinister plot that is so explosive that some might do anything to prevent it from coming to light. With stakes so high, Juliano finds himself moving from the backstreets of Pisa to the bars in Moscow, finding things unknown to most. As he desperately looks around, he comes across several others who are running and following blood trails across Europe and North America. From the sleepy suburbs of Toronto to the trend-setters in Washington D.C. and Monaco, there are sinister forces following them that will stop at nothing. The chase, the pace will continue to get even more frantic and ruthless as the young and restless all cross hurdles and search for clues until they merge at a common place and common thread. With billions of dollars at stake, in the invisible world of assassins and cryptocurrencies, they need to fight together to survive—and find the traitor amongst them. Odds are against them and they are doomed to fail unless… they all came back.
Download or read book Water Taking the Waters written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water; it's one of the world's most important natural resources. In this program we see a variety of ways water plays a significant role in the lives of so many people, be it for recreation, work or health. First, we visit the largest lake in Colorado, Grand Lake, which offers every type of recreation enjoyed with water, including great sail boating. Next, we learn the history of and explore probably the most beautiful electrical power source you'll ever see, the Bridal Veil Power Station, which features Bridal Veil Falls, a 365-foot waterfall at the end of the box canyon that overlooks Telluride. Then we are awed by the wonder of the incredibly steep Royal Gorge Canyon, where one can also enjoy wild whitewater rafting down the Arkansas River. In the arid American West, it's no surprise how important it is to preserve precious water sources and the Brooks Water Wheel, the last wooden water wheel on the Colorado River, has been preserved for generations as a symbol of the importance of preserving and properly irrigating water. Next in Alamosa in the San Luis valley we meet Erwin Young, owner of Rocky Mountain White Tilapia, who raises and sells over 100,000 pounds of Tilapia a year to restaurants all across the country; to handle the waste from these fish, he also runs the Colorado Gators Reptile Park. Colorado is host to many mountain spring areas such as The Spring Inn near Pagosa Springs and the Strawberry Hot Springs near Steamboat Springs, both offer therapeutic water for health and relaxation.

Her Irish Gypsy heritage provides a hidden talent she uses to help the creatures under her care. But even her magical skills can't help new rescues in dire need of veterinary care. The opportunity of signing on as the vet for Gwen's sanctuary dropped into Brock Scutter's lap after he expanded his practice to include wildlife. The personal attraction he and Gwen experience is undeniable the more their professional and personal lives collide. Touring the only "non-haunted" house in Salem they both feel a spark of magic. A trip to his family's cabin uncovers a heritage he didn't know existed. If they want a future together, it means facing the consequences of awakening hidden Gypsy magic and a race against the clock to correct past wrongs.
