Kit Colbana is always biting off more than she can chew. She has a
knack for finding trouble. This time, though, trouble finds her.
Someone from her past drops a case into her lap that she just can't
refuse...literally. People on the Council are dying left and right
and she's been requested to investigate the deaths. The number one
suspect? Her lover, Damon. If she doesn't clear his name, he gets a
death sentence. Even if she succeeds? They still might try to
execute him. Oh, and she's not allowed to tell him about the case,
either. The stakes are high this time around, higher than they've
ever been. Kit may be forced to pay the ultimate price to save her
lover's life...a price that could destroy her and everything she
loves.
Kit Colbana: assassin, thief, investigator extraordinaire. Now
broken. She always expected her past to catch up with her but never
like this. Haunted by nightmares and stripped of her identity,
she's retreated to Wolf Haven, the no-man's land where she found
refuge years before. But while she might want to hide away from the
rest of the world, the rest of the world isn't taking the hint.
Dragged kicking and screaming back into life, Kit is thrust
head-first into an investigation surrounding the theft of an
ancient relic...one that she wants nothing to do with. Her
instincts tell her it's a bad idea to just leave the relic lying
about, but finding it might be just as bad. Forced to face her
nightmares, she uncovers hidden strength and comes face to face
with one of the world's original monsters. If she survives the job,
she won't be the same...and neither will those closest to her.
This book is a revised edition of a pictorial guide to the birds of
the Indian subcontinent first published in 1983. The book deals
with the birds of the Indian Subcontinent-India, Pakistan, Nepal,
Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, including the islands of Andaman
and Nicobars, Lakshadweep, and Maldives and not includes
Afghanistan and the Chagos Archipelago. The main part of the book
is taken up by bird topography and complemented by 112 plates
containing illustrations of 1251 species to describe how their
family/species perceived in the society. Additional notes of over
100 definite species are also provided to add special flavour to
the reader. The Guide contains species descriptions to aid field
identification, as there are quite a few bird species where a
pictorial representation is not sufficient, especially to identify
similar looking birds. The brief descriptions of the species have
been added to enable quick identification, except for species where
more detailing is required. The detailed indices-of group and
stand-alone names, common names, and scientific names of the birds
of the Indian Subcontinent-would be of immense help to the serious
scholars and researcher of birds of the Indian Subcontinent.
