Legend of Sea Glass Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle

Long, long ago there was a time when men did not venture into the deep ocean waters. It was believed that the world was flat and to sail beyond the horizon meant falling off the edge of the earth. So even though they were drawn to and fascinated by the ocean, men feared it. And as men lived their lives above the water, far beyond their view and in the ocean's deepest depths lived mysterious and magical sea creatures, half girl and half fish. These shy, gentle creatures were called mermaids and much loved by the ocean. And when men finally overcame their fear and ventured out to sea, risking disaster and even death, it was the mermaids who came to their rescue. Written by award-winning author Trinka Hakes Noble, this original legend explains the origin of sea glass, attributing it to the tears of mermaids, weeping for lives lost at sea.

The Legend of Noble Drilling Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle

Noble Drilling's roots trace back to 1921, when Lloyd Noble formed the Noble Drilling Company. Though the company began with only a single rig, Lloyd Noble was a careful planner as well as a man with vision. Against the odds, the company survived the ups and downs of the economy. Then in 1985 Noble Drilling was spun off from Noble Affiliates and CEO Jim Day made farsighted decisions and announced the company's commitment to flourish. Under Day's leadership, Noble Drilling evolved into one of the world's premier offshore drilling companies. Noble Drilling has not been immune to the boom-and-bust cycle of a highly cyclical industry, but it has carried on through expertise, loyalty and plain old common sense. The company has turned its focus to the future, making intelligent acquisition and developing innovative drilling methods and rig designs that have helped it survive even the most depressed oil market. The Legend of Noble Drilling, by Jeffrey L. Rodengen, is 200 pages of amazing history and beautiful images.

USA TODAY "5 Books Not To Miss" • NY POST "Required Reading" "Sara Blaedel writes novels as twisty as spirals and electric with intelligence. A HARMLESS LIE is a labyrinth of a mystery, dense and dangerous. Come get lost in it." —A.J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window "Riveting...It’s tailor-made for Karin Slaughter’s readers.” —Library Journal (STARRED REVIEW) A woman is haunted by a heartwrenching decision she made as a teenager in this darkly atmospheric, deeply emotional thriller from #1 internationally bestselling global superstar Sara Blaedel.

But the more Louise learns about Trine—a devoted wife and the mother of two young children—and her state of mind in the days before she left Mikkel, the more Louise begins to wonder whether Trine really meant to leave him. Or whether something much darker may have taken place. As the local police begin to suspect that Mikkel may have had a hand in Trine’s disappearance, Louise struggles to clear his name but is forced to confront some hard truths: Small towns always hide secrets. The past always comes back to haunt you. And lies are never harmless.

At the southernmost tip of New Jersey lie the resort town of Cape May and its sparkling sandy beaches, sheltering the Delaware Bay. Formed by melting glaciers thousands of years past, the Delaware River flows from its headwaters to spill into the Delaware Bay.
