Tane Kalana is a natural born surfer, but being talented tends to put a target on your back.

Sometimes, all that matters is being in the right place at the right time. Rami knows the storm should have killed him. Very much alive, though slightly waterlogged, he can't shake the feeling that he didn't survive on his own merits. He had help. When a person of interest in the legal matter he's been hired to untangle reveals a strong resemblance to the man who may have saved his life, venturing into uncharted waters becomes the least of Rami's problems. A loner living in the shadow of a once-great house, Malcolm is a hard man to pin down. His seemingly impossible feats of heroism have certainly saved lives, but the people of Envern, Maine, are only too eager to allege he had something to do with his employer's death. Leading a secretive existence under a cloud of suspicion should scupper Malcolm's appeal, but Rami has secrets of his own and his relationship with danger has always been complicated.

This new edition of Daniel Berrigan's classic autobiography To Dwell in Peace, with a new afterword by the author, takes us through his childhood in Syracuse; his early years as a Jesuit, teacher, priest, and poet; his bold 1968 Catonsville Nine action, when he poured homemade napalm on draft files in opposition to the U.S. war on Vietnam; and his ongoing civil disobedience, which led to his going underground and subsequent two-year imprisonment. We read of friends like Thomas Merton, Dorothy Day, William Stringfellow, and his brother Philip Berrigan, with whom he participated again in the 1980 Plowshares Eight disarmament action. Daniel Berrigan's breathtaking story and the poetic way he tells it inspire and challenge us to resist war, pursue nuclear disarmament, and undertake a similar journey to peace, hope, and justice.
