Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the crack snatcher team at London's Military & Civilian Combined Forces HQ, President Keating's new-fangled, Use-a-Thief-to-Snatch-a-Thief scheme, is a political mistake, doomed to fail. Likewise, seventeen year old new recruit, Skye Forrester, a repeat offender fresh out of juvie, as just another street thief. To Lieutenant Hunter, her designated puppy-walker, she's a pain in the backside. He's enough on his plate: winter 2089 is gearing up to be a shocker. Already overcrowded, the city is at flash-point with the migration of northerners, escaping the mini ice-age gripping the country north of Leicestershire, pouring in. And people are dying. Twenty nine unexplained deaths around the poorer areas of Hammersmith and White City: no visual cause; toxicology reports negative; forensics zilch. But Skye is determined to prove her worth. Tough, smart and sassy, she's a survivor where quick wits and nimble fingers have kept her and young brother, Alexie, alive for the last six years. Working alone, she uncovers two cold cases where the previous investigator met a gruesome death. That's when the threatening text messages start, her brother's abducted in the park, and when Skye's babysitter and two small boys are found dead, face down in their porridge, Skye begins to wonder who, if anyone, she can trust. it will take all her dubious skills to uncover the perpetrator - knowing that he or she will kill anyone who gets in their way.

Book excerpt: As heard on NPR's This American Life “Absorbing . . . Though it's non-fiction, The Feather Thief contains many of the elements of a classic thriller.” —Maureen Corrigan, NPR’s Fresh Air “One of the most peculiar and memorable true-crime books ever.” —Christian Science Monitor A rollicking true-crime adventure and a captivating journey into an underground world of fanatical fly-tiers and plume peddlers, for readers of The Stranger in the Woods, The Lost City of Z, and The Orchid Thief. On a cool June evening in 2009, after performing a concert at London's Royal Academy of Music, twenty-year-old American flautist Edwin Rist boarded a train for a suburban outpost of the British Museum of Natural History. Home to one of the largest ornithological collections in the world, the Tring museum was full of rare bird specimens whose gorgeous feathers were worth staggering amounts of money to the men who shared Edwin's obsession: the Victorian art of salmon fly-tying. Once inside the museum, the champion fly-tier grabbed hundreds of bird skins—some collected 150 years earlier by a contemporary of Darwin's, Alfred Russel Wallace, who'd risked everything to gather them—and escaped into the darkness. Two years later, Kirk Wallace Johnson was waist high in a river in northern New Mexico when his fly-fishing guide told him about the heist. He was soon consumed by the strange case of the feather thief. What would possess a person to steal dead birds? Had Edwin paid the price for his crime? What became of the missing skins? In his search for answers, Johnson was catapulted into a years-long, worldwide investigation. The gripping story of a bizarre and shocking crime, and one man's relentless pursuit of justice, The Feather Thief is also a fascinating exploration of obsession, and man's destructive instinct to harvest the beauty of nature.
