    Dear Reader, People-smuggling is a very current topic these days, but Stowaway puts an adventurous twist on it. Owen is a bored, West Coast Canadian teen who decides to stow away on a visiting yacht just for fun. Imagine his shock to find it holds six Guatemalan teens whose parents have paid the captain and his first mate — a captive former street kid — to leave violent Guatemala and usher them illegally into Canada. The idea for this book sprang from learning that, legally, ships in need of temporary harbour during a storm must be allowed to dock. Owen’s family owns a marina, his parents are away, and the stormy night’s arrival intrigues him. Then he meets the “clients” and figures out the setup — knowledge that means the captain is now unwilling to release him. Meanwhile, a haunting incident in his past urges Owen to make poor decisions. When the captain fails to release the boys, Owen engineers an escape — until he’s double-crossed. The captain locks everyone but his first mate into the engine room of the tug, destroys the boat’s controls, and points it seaward under full speed in a storm. The boys team up to turn the tug around and barrel toward the yacht for a final confrontation that will set the first mate free. Home safe and having redefined trust, friendship, and family, Owen hopes the boys might be released to join him there one day. Pam Wither s STOWAWAY Pam Withers Owen’s plan to sail away on an adventure puts him on a collision course with some very dangerous people.

With the publication of Death Cruise, a creative tour-de-force, award-winning author Dan Anderson again shows why he is one of the most fascinating and A Chauncey McFadden Mystery entertaining voices in the mystery field today. Chauncey McFadden, a Los Angeles PI, receives a frantic phone call from the president of a Miami-based cruise line. Two employees have been killed in port and Chauncey is hired to solve the crime and prevent further atrocities. The portly, wisecracking Chauncey has limited homicide experience, but naively accepts this job thinking it will be little more than a free vacation. However, things quickly fall apart as the body count climbs onboard ship and in Caribbean island ports of call. A shipment of drugs being smuggled into Miami disappears from the ship before its delivery which unleashes a vengeful vendetta upon everyone in its path. This riveting, fast-paced story includes a secret drug-smuggling cartel with voodoo roots that deals with its enemies in vicious, ritualistic fashion, an aging silver screen legend who is not what he appears to be, a corporate takeover artist thwarted in his recent attempt to seize control of the cruise line, and an international assassin for hire who thwarts prosecution with a novel approach to murder.

Disparate films from a variety of genres use different forms of popular music in different ways, however these negotiations with pop music and its cultural surroundings have one true implication: that the 'inde- pendentness' (or 'indieness') of these movies is informed, anchored and embellished by their relationships with their soundtracks and/or the representations of or posi- tioning within wider popular music subcultures.
