The New York Times–bestselling author of H is for Hawk explores the human relationship to the natural world in this “dazzling” essay collection (Wall Street Journal). In Vesper Flights, Helen Macdonald brings together a collection of her best loved essays, along with new pieces on topics ranging from nostalgia for a vanishing countryside to the tribulations of farming ostriches to her own private vespers while trying to fall asleep. Meditating on notions of captivity and freedom, immigration and flight, Helen invites us into her most intimate experiences: observing the massive migration of songbirds from the top of the Empire State Building, watching tens of thousands of cranes in Hungary, seeking the last golden orioles in Suffolk’s poplar forests. She writes with heart-tugging clarity about wild boar, swifts, mushroom hunting, migraines, the strangeness of birds’ nests, and the unexpected guidance and comfort we find when watching wildlife.

One of the most ambitious works of paranormal investigation of our time, here is an unprecedented compendium of pre-twentieth-century UFO accounts, written with rigor and color by two of today's leading investigators of unexplained phenomena. In the past century, individuals, newspapers, and military agencies have recorded thousands of UFO incidents, giving rise to much speculation about flying saucers, visitors from other planets, and alien abductions. Yet the extraterrestrial phenomenon did not begin in the present era. Far from it. The authors of Wonders in the Sky reveal a thread of vividly rendered-and sometimes strikingly similar- reports of mysterious aerial phenomena from antiquity through the modern age. These accounts often share definite physical features- such as the heat felt and described by witnesses-that have not changed much over the centuries. Indeed, such similarities between ancient and modern sightings are the rule rather than the exception. In Wonders in the Sky, respected researchers Jacques Vallee and Chris Aubeck examine more than 500 selected reports of sightings from biblical-age antiquity through the year 1879-the point at which the Industrial Revolution deeply changed the nature of human society, and the skies began to open to airplanes, dirigibles, rockets, and other opportunities for misinterpretation represented by military prototypes. Using vivid and engaging case studies, and more than seventy-five illustrations, they reveal that unidentified flying objects have had a major impact not only on popular culture but on our history, on our religion, and on the models of the world humanity has formed from deepest antiquity. Sure to become a classic among UFO enthusiasts and other followers of unexplained phenomena, Wonders in the Sky is the most ambitious, broad-reaching, and intelligent analysis ever written on premodern aerial mysteries.

I am thrilled to present to you my latest work, a collection of mystery-suspense stories that I have poured my heart and soul into. As a writer who is deeply passionate about the mystery genre, I have always been fascinated by the complexities of human nature and the power of suspenseful storytelling. The stories in this book are a reflection of my love for the genre, and I have worked tirelessly to ensure that each one is a unique and thrilling experience for the reader. From the dark alleys of big cities to the remote corners of the countryside, the stories in this collection take the reader on a journey through the twisted minds of murderers, the devious schemes of criminals, and the desperate struggles of those who seek to bring them to justice. I have always believed that a good mystery story is not just about the plot, but also about the characters. The protagonists in these stories are a diverse cast of individuals, each with their own unique strengths, flaws, and motivations. As the stories unfold, you will find yourself rooting for them, sympathizing with them, and ultimately, experiencing their triumphs and defeats. One of the things I find most compelling about the mystery genre is its ability to explore the darker aspects of human nature. In this book, you will encounter characters who are driven by greed, revenge, and a thirst for power, as well as those who are struggling to overcome the traumas of their past. Through these characters, I hope to shed light on the complex, and often conflicting, forces that shape our lives. Writing these stories has been a labor of love, and I am deeply grateful to everyone who has supported me along the way. Whether you are a seasoned fan of the mystery genre or a newcomer, I hope that this collection will leave you on the edge of your seat, eager to discover what happens next.
