Book Description
When widowed folklorist Maureen Nash visits a legendary North Carolina barrier island shell shop, she discovers its resident ghost pirate and the mystery of a local’s untimely death . . . As a professional storyteller, Maureen Nash can’t help but see the narrative cues woven through her life. Like the series of letters addressed to her late husband from a stranger—the proprietor of The Moon Shell, a shop on Ocracoke Island, off the coast of North Carolina. The store is famous with shell collectors, but it’s the cryptic letters from Allen Withrow, the shop’s owner, that convince Maureen to travel to the small coastal town in the middle of hurricane season. At the very least, she expects she’ll get a good story out of the experience, never anticipating it could end up a murder mystery . . . In Maureen’s first hours on the storm-lashed island, she averts several life-threatening accidents, stumbles over the body of a controversial Ocracoke local, and meets the ghost of an eighteenth-century Welsh pirate, Emrys Lloyd. To the untrained eye, all these unusual occurrences would seem to be random misfortunes, but Maureen senses there may be something connecting these stories. With Emrys’s supernatural assistance, and the support of a few new friends, Maureen sets out unravel the truth, find a killer, and hopefully give this tale a satisfying ending . . . while also rewriting her own.

Book Description
A strongly issue-led play, Burning Monkey relates the story of a teenage couple and their interactions with an older war veteran, trying to rebuild his fractured relationship with his daughter. While their exchanges initially show a hostile and unsympathetic clash of generations, it soon becomes apparent that they share similar pain - based on their damaged family relationships, and absent parents/children - and they begin to feel empathy for one another's plight. In the background, the presence of war looms; the character of Old is haunted by memories of his time as a soldier and the character of Monkey looks forward to a time when he can escape the depressing realities of his life and join the army. In the midst of this, Shell is fifteen, madly in love with Monkey, and pregnant with his child. Her attempts to try and make the irresponsible, immature Monkey stay with her become increasingly desperate. Burning Monkey is a play that raises important issues for teenagers, addressing themes such as war, violence, separated families and responsibility.

Book Description
GreenKnight is a thriller of love, patriotism, and corruption within the Executive branch of the government, and is the second novel in the Green trilogy, the first being GreenCove. In GreenKnight, Sheldon Flagler Scott finds himself on the Tamiami Trail in southern Florida heading west out of Miami with a hurricane at his back. Hurricane Kitty, a slow-moving, immense storm is approaching the southeast coast of the state. Shell is a special agent for the United States Secret Service pledged to keep the President out of trouble politically. On the way to Tampa, Shell sees a burning car, a white Mercedes, on the edge of the Trail with two dead bodies inside. The trunk is open and inside is a rather large footlocker filled with a fortune in cash and diamonds. The novel concerns itself with drugs, shoot-outs and murders, bombings and waterspouts. Shell discovers a Cuban plot to become a world power and traces the problem to the DEA and a nest of dishonesty, graft, bribery, and fraud in high places.
