Even the darkest secrets will come to light. Bubbly social media
star Hannah Monksman is captaining Seiiki and carrying
the last of Earth's whales to a new paradise planet. Viewers have
been following Hannah's journey, but what they don't know is her
true identity—Kim Teng who won her role as Caretaker with the
help of underground operatives known as the Crusaders. Kim forms a
close bond with the whales in her care, and their mental Link
allows conversation on the lonely spaceship. But when one of the
whales, Adonai, begins acting strange, Kim begins to suspect that
she is a pawn in a secret mission meant to ensure the whales never
reach their destination. Or it may just be the isolation getting to
her.
This book is a study of potential, perceived, and real conflicts
and similarities between market economics and Jewish social
justice. The book's ultimate focus is on public policy issues. In
the first two chapters, the author presents the conceptual and
theoretical foundations of market economics and Jewish social
justice. Subsequent chapters analyze minimum wage, immigration,
climate change, and usury from both market economics and Jewish
social justice perspectives, discussing conflicts, and, if they
exist, similarities.
Who would have thought that the Blessed Mother would choose to come
to Fatima, that remote farming village on a rocky slope in
Portugal? No one was more surprised than Lucia, Jacinta, and
Francisco, the little shepherds to whom she appeared in 1917. In
this 27th volume of the acclaimed Vision Books series for youth,
readers will be enthralled by the story of the village and its
people, of the scornful neighbors and the puzzled parents. Above
all, it is the warmly human story of the three little ones who
insisted that Our Lady had indeed come to Fatima, and from whose
faith grew one of the greatest spiritual movements of our time.

The fight for the future of the whales has just begun. As Seiiki,
now escorted by a military contingent from Earth United, draws ever
closer to New Eden, Kim Teng must learn to split her role of
Caretaker with another, navigate a new relationship with Wren, and
deal with the suffocating guilt of having been part of the
Crusaders, all while maintaining her cover as social media star
Hannah Monksman. What could possibly go wrong? With tensions rising
back on Earth between the Adherants, a sect devoted to keeping
humanity from colonizing space, and Earth United, it is even more
important for Seiiki and the whales to reach New Eden quickly and
safely. But as the contingent comes out of hyperspace, an unknown
computer error sends them off-course into an asteroid belt. The
military escort ships land badly damaged on New Eden, and the
whales are trapped inside a crippled Seiiki, several kilometers
from the planned landing site. And it seems their new home planet
is not the peaceful paradise they expected. Strange creatures howl
in the night, probes that were sent to populate the oceans with
fish are found disabled, and ancient ruins in the jungle nearby
suggest the Ark Project wasn't the first landing party on New Eden.
When people begin disappearing from their basecamp, Kim and her
friends soon realize that while someone didn't want them to ever
arrive at New Eden, someone—or something—else wanted to make
sure they did.
