GOLDEN CHRISTOPHER THE NIGHT BIRDS

Charlie Book and Ruby Cahill have history. After their love ended in heartbreak years ago  they
never expected to see each other again. Now  as part of his work for the Texas Parks and
Wildlife Department  Book lives aboard the Christabel  a 19th century freighter half-sunken off
the shore of Galveston. Over many years  a massive forest of mangrove trees has grown up
through the deck of the ship  creating a startlingly beautiful enigma Book calls the Floating
Forest. As a powerful storm churns through the Gulf  he intends to sleep on board as usual. But
when he arrives at the dock  he?s stunned to find Ruby there waiting for him. And she?s not
alone. With her are a mysterious woman and her infant child  asking Book to hide them safely
aboard the Christabel while they're on the run. Only it isn?t the police who are after them 
it?s a coven of witches the woman  Mae  has fled  stealing away the helpless infant for whom
the coven had hideous plans?or so Mae claims. It?s lunacy and Book wants nothing to do with it.
But after the way he and Ruby ended things  and the unspoken pain between them  he can?t
refuse. Yet even as he brings them out to the ruined ship and its floating forest  there are
shadowed figures looming back in Galveston  waiting out the storm. And despite the worsening
wind and rain  the night birds are flying  scouring the coastline for their prey.
