Book Description
Rebecca Aldrich had a history of disappearing. But this time is different. The spirited college freshman simply vanishes, like several other young women in Las Vegas, New Mexico. When Jamie Aldrich embarks on a desperate hunt for her missing stepdaughter, she discovers that the surrounding grasslands and foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains are full of secrets, and that her recently deceased husband left behind a life enshrouded in mystery. When loved ones go missing, only the truth can bring them home. A startling and engaging mystery, Ant Dens will draw you into a shadowy world where good and evil are mirror images of each other -- and learning the truth means forgetting everything you know. In a series of stunning and unnerving revelations about love, loyalty, and the dark side of human nature, Ant Dens uncovers our primal fear of what happens when loved ones suddenly disappear.

Book Description
From the Arctic to South Africa - one finds them everywhere: Ants. Making up nearly 15% of the entire terrestrial animal biomass, ants are impressive not only in quantitative terms, they also fascinate by their highly organized and complex social system. Their caste system, the division of labor, the origin of altruistic behavior and the complex forms of chemical communication makes them the most interesting group of social organisms and the main subject for sociobiologists. Not least is their ecological importance: Ants are the premier soil turners, channelers of energy and dominatrices of the insect fauna.
