The skies are red as blood, the land is choked with toxic pollution, and the great spirit animals that once roamed its wilds have departed forever.

Accompanying her father on the Shogun's hunt, she finds herself stranded: a young woman alone in Shima's last wilderness, with only a furious, crippled thunder tiger for company. Even though she can hear his thoughts, even though she saved his life, all she knows for certain is he'd rather see her dead than help her.

| eye of the storm tattoo: One Deadly Eye Randy Wayne White, 2024-06-04 *NATIONAL BESTSELLER* From New York Times bestselling author Randy Wayne White, after the deadliest hurricane to hit Florida’s Gulf Coast in a century, Doc Ford must stop a gang of thieves—and worse—during the twelve hours of chaos that follow the passing of a storm’s eye. A Russian diplomat disappears while Doc is tagging great white sharks in South Africa, and members of a criminal brotherhood, Bratva, don’t think it’s a coincidence. They track the biologist to Dinkin’s Bay Marina on the west coast of Florida, where Brotherhood mercenaries have already deployed, prepared to pillage and kill in the wake of an approaching hurricane. No one, however, is prepared for a cataclysmic event that will forever change the island and leaves Doc to deal with escapees from Russia’s most dangerous prison, including a serial killer—the Vulture Monk—who has a taste for blood. His only ally is an enigmatic British inventor whose decision to ride out the storm might have more to do with revenge than protecting a priceless art collection. Doc has a lot at stake—the lives of his fiancée, Hannah Smith, and their son, plus the fate of his hipster pal, Tomlinson, whose sailboat has disappeared in the Gulf of Mexico. The greatest threat of all, though, is a force that cannot be escaped—a Category Five hurricane that, minute by minute, melds sins of the past with Florida's precarious future. |

| eye of the storm tattoo: At the Threshold of Liquid Geology Eric W. Bragg, 2002-09-15 This modern collection of surrealist prose-poems was inspired by the improvisational method of automatic writing, popularized by the International Surrealist Movement. From one brain to another without any literary rules or standards, the words in these automatic writings are not just words, but rays of subconscious illumination that peel away the various layers of the “civilized,” western psyche, one by one. Full of bizarre transformations and dark, irrationally motivated patterns of erotic thought, these writings will seduce the reader into nothing less than a sublime overload and transgressive derangement of the senses. While a must-read for the poetically daring and the adventurous, this book is not recommended for those who seek peaceful numbness and safety! |

Too bad that as far as self-defense goes, run and hide is the best she's got. And with the monsters that started her escape hot on her heels, that's not going to cut it for long...

Of course, Max should probably tell Sarah he's a vampire himself... Twisted In human form, Terrent Vilks is all male animal--dark, ripped, predatory. As wolf, he's unforgettably dangerous, unforgettably hot. Yet Maggie can't remember him... Not even when she learns she once agreed to mate him.

Now she knows just one thing about herself--she'll do whatever it takes to bring down the monsters who took her, even trust her ex. He's got her right where he wants her... Tamed Caleb Donovan was never meant to be a prophet. At heart he's a conqueror, his appetites far more carnal than spiritual. He's not inclined to repress his passions and surrender to fate. After all, that's what cost him Lily—three centuries ago. She married another, because it was ordained. Now that he's in the same benighted calling—and forced into proximity with her—all the old desires are roaring back to life... After widowhood and centuries of celibacy, Lily is eager to explore the wild side of life, except now she's vulnerable to another forced relationship, with an enemy. But this time she's determined to choose her own path. And if hot, furious Caleb comes charging to the rescue, it might just change both their destinies... Love is about to start conquering... |

| eye of the storm tattoo: The Dead Eye and the Deep Blue Sea Vannak Anan Prum, 2018-08-07 Too poor to pay his pregnant wife's hospital bill, Vannak Anan Prum left his village in Cambodia to seek work in Thailand. Men who appeared to be employers on a fishing vessel promised to return him home after a few months at sea, but instead Vannak was hostaged on the vessel for four years of hard labor. Amid violence and cruelty, including frequent beheadings, Vannak survived in large part by honing his ability to tattoo his shipmates--a skill he possessed despite never having been trained in art or having had access to art supplies while growing up. As a means of escape, Vannak and a friend jumped into the water and, hugging empty fish-sauce containers because they could not swim, reached Malaysia in the dark of night. At the harbor, they were taken into a police station . . . then sold by their rescuers to work on a plantation. Vannak was kept as a laborer for over a year before an NGO could secure his return to Cambodia. After five years away, Vannak was finally reunited with his family. Vannak documented his ordeal in raw, colorful, detailed illustrations, first created because he believed that without them no one would believe his story. Indeed, very little is known about what happens to the men and boys who end up working on fishing boats in Asia, and these images are some of the first records. In regional Cambodia, many families still wait for men who have disappeared across the Thai border, and out to sea. The Dead Eye and the Deep Blue Sea is a testament to the lives of these many fishermen who are trapped on boats in the Indian Ocean. |

You could barely tell where the shore stopped and the ice started. It all blended together because it was covered in snow. So it all looked the same. No starting point, no ending point. Not like when you looked out towards Lake Superior. You could tell where the water stopped and the ice began to form. The water actually looked scary, unforgiving. Similar to what you would imagine a living giant sea monster would be hiding in. Like some kind of serpent would be part of. Then all of a sudden take shape. Reach up and grab you! Never to be seen again because it would never give you back once you were with it. Like the song years later by Gordon Light Foot. The song about the Edmund Fitzgerald. Superior they say never gives up her dead...Mike. After thinking all of this stuff to scare the living shit out of himself. Then, he proceeded to walk down to the skaters. To the right . Away from Superior. Checking over his shoulder periodically to make sure nothing had changed. In the way of Superior trying to sneak up on him. When he reached the other kids no one paid him any mind. No one even noticed him. So he thought. Feeling a little sorry for himself as anyone would have. Everyone skating, laughing and having a gay old time and him standing there like a lump. He started to wonder around out of boredom. Make a snow ball. Toss it at nothing but a little more snow. Look at the tree tops and see the birds. Begin wondering how the hell they don't freeze to death in the winter. All the time wondering aimlessly towards....... You guessed it. Superior! He was making his own trail for no one had ever walked here in these very steps. Mike liked the idea that he was walking, where no man had ever walked. His little rain boots were the only tracks in that snow. Mike was kinda like the explorers he had heard about that had gone where nobody had gone before. He was one right now too. Just a little smaller scale. Mike could hear the voices of the skaters ringing in his ears but for some reason they sounded, barely audible. He paid no mind. Walked a little farther and now the voices were definitely not right. You don't scream like that if you are having fun. So Mike turned back to see just what the hell all the commotion was about. As he stopped and turned back he heard it! Even at a young age you know that sound. You know that sound because it sends a cold chill right through you. For a split second the warmth leaves your entire body. HE HEARD THE ICE CRACK! Then he felt the snow under his feet give just ever so slightly. He looked up to see some people with their hands up to their mouths to look like giant O's. Screaming at him to come back. Again he notice there breath coming out in a white cloud. then blown away by the wind. More importantly he noticed the urgency in which they were calling him to come back. While others waved their arms madly in giant circular motions towards the tree line behind them. Away from Superior. It was at that point everything felt so calm. Almost dizzying. Everything slow and crystal clear. The people were so far away now. With their bright colored clothes and their hands all to their mouths yelling for him to come back.

| eye of the storm tattoo: Stormland John Shirley, 2021-04-13 They call it Stormland: a sprawling, largely abandoned region of the southeastern coast of the USA, where climate change’s extreme weather conditions have brought about a “perfect storm” of perpetual tempests; where hurricane-strength storms return day after day, 365 days a year. The heart of Stormland is Charleston, South Carolina, a flooded ruin where hundreds of people remain for their own peculiar reasons; where thugs prey on the weak, and a strangely benevolent cult tries to keep everyone insanely sane. Here, plutocratic evil takes advantage of Stormland’s lawlessness to cultivate a weirdly puppeted theater of cruelty. Swept into the turbulent vortex of Stormland is an unlikely duo—a former serial killer and a former US Marshal—who must work together to bring light to America’s late twenty-first century heart of darkness. A cyberpunk detective thriller set in a maelstrom of climatic upheaval, classism, and corrupt power, Stormland paradoxically dramatizes the resilience of the human spirit. |

Is there more hidden beneath the surface of the kaleidoscopic beauty industry than Angela wants to reveal? Sharing the estate is Angela’s enigmatic business partner, Scott, whose mercurial moods change as quickly as the conditions on the darkening moors outside. Confined to the glass-walled house, Maddy can’t shake the feeling of being watched. As objects go missing, handprints appear on the windows, and a stranger lurks in the grounds, she finds herself drawn ever closer to Scott. Returning to London once the book is finished, Maddy is excited for their future together. But her dreams are shattered at the book launch when Angela learns that Scott has leapt to his death from the Scottish cliffs. Which is why, months later and lost in a fog of grief, Maddy is completely blindsided when she sees Scott entering the Tube station just in front of her. It can’t be him, can it? After all, Scott is dead...or is he? In exploring the differences between looking and seeing, surface and depth, and the power of the female gaze, this tribute to Hitchcock’s 1958 film masterpiece asks: If beauty is in the eye of the beholder, how much can you trust what you see? |

| eye of the storm tattoo: The Mystery Of The Rose Sukh D. H. Khokhar, 2012-04-03 Witness the rebirth of India in an unforgettable love story of Pearly Ruby Princessa, spun around the fascinating background of the Coronation of King Edward V11 in 1902, his spectacular State Durbar and the reign of maharajas, nawabs, and aristocrats in the Indian princely states. Baby Pearly was born towards the turn of 19th century. She arrived precisely after the stroke of midnight under the full moon. The time of her birth was as ominous for her English born mother and aunt residing in India as it was for the British Empire. The birth of Pearly symbolized many things to many people, British and Indian, but most importantly it symbolized change a beginning and an end. For her native Indian parents, her birth marked the much hoped for new beginning of Swatantra, the self-rule for the land of India. For her British counterpart, it marked the final chapter the end of the British raj. It is a tale of two nations entering an era of new beginnings, coinciding with the story of Princessa. The story is woven with powerful imagery and amazing riddles. It is a tale of mystery, intrigue and obsession exploring the magical connection between the physical and the metaphysical; matter and spirit; good and evil; demon and divine and ultimately, the undeniably compelling connection between the power of forgiveness and the gift of deliverance- the deliverance from the cycle of life and death, leading to the state of NIRVANA...the ultimate peace. |

| eye of the storm tattoo: The Unfortunates Sophie McManus, 2015-06-02 In this brilliant social satire of life among the 1 percent of the 1 percent (The Washington Post), Sophie McManus presents a contemporary American tragedy of breathtaking scope. The Unfortunates is the story of a wealthy family coming to terms with how their privilege and entitlement means nothing in the face of an uncaring universe. A larger-than-life heiress to a rubber baron’s fortune, once known for her cruel wit as much as for her tremendous generosity, Cecilia Somner is now in opulent decline. Afflicted with a rare disease and touched by mortality for the first time, her gilded, bygone values collide with an unforgiving present. Now, along with her troubled son, George, and his working-class wife, Iris, CeCe must face the Somners’ dark legacy and the corrupting nature of their fortune. As the family struggles to cope with their rising misfortunes, the secrets and lies between matriarch, son, and daughter-in-law grow entangled. CeCe’s condition topples her world, giving her a glimpse at how the rest of society deals with disaster, changing her perspectives on medical marijuana, physical and mental illnesses, housing crises, and LGBTQ families. But her realizations come too late as the Somners are besieged by a startling turn of events as unforgettable as it is unexpected. While no riches can put things right for the unfortunate Somners, when all is lost they learn what life beyond the long, shimmering shadow cast by their dynasty may become. A strong, gripping debut (Entertainment Weekly), The Unfortunates is a hilarious and heartbreaking novel about a prominent family on the edge of ruin and a meditation on love as delusional obsession, as transformation, and ultimately as a coming to grace. A modern-day Edith Wharton.—RON CHARLES, The Washington Post McManus is a talented, intelligent writer, and the story is as well-paced as a good thriller.—MOIRA HODGSON, The Wall Street Journal A wonderfully precise and subtle?not to mention unexpectedly moving?take on the assumptions and beleaguerments that go with great wealth.—DAPHNE MERKIN, The New Yorker Shortlisted for the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize and Longlisted for the National Book Critics Circle's John Leonard Prize A Washington Post Notable Book of the Year and a New York Times Book Review Paperback Row Pick Named a Must-Read by Entertainment Weekly, Time, New York Observer, Time Out (New York), Bloomberg Businessweek, Travel + Leisure, and Paste magazine |
