Hidden nature / by Roberts, Nora,author.;
"Natural Resources police officer, Sloan Cooper, and her partner had just taken down three men preying on hikers in the Western Maryland mountains. Driving back, she pulled in at a convenience store - and walked right into a robbery in progress. One gunshot from a jittery thief was about to change her world. After being shocked back to life on the operating table, she has a long recovery ahead, so she moves back to her parents' peaceful house in Heron's Rest. As for the boyfriend who dumped her via text while she was in the hospital, good riddance. She may be down, but she's not out. So when a woman vanishes, leaving her car behind in a supermarket parking lot, Sloan searches online for similar cases. She finds them, spread across three states. Men and women, old and young - the missing seem to have nothing in common. And the abductions keep happening. Luckily, the new man in her life shares her passion for solving this mystery. But it will take every ounce of endurance to get to the dark heart of this bizarre case - and she's willing to risk her life again if that's what it takes to stop the horror"--

Cormac McCarthy's The road [graphic novel] : a graphic novel adaptation / by Larcenet, Manu,author,illustrator.; graphic novelization of (work):McCarthy, Cormac,1933-2023.Road.; Cromatik (Firm),letterer.;
"The story of a nameless father and son trying to survive with their humanity intact in a postapocalyptic wasteland where Earth's natural resources have been diminished, and some survivors are left to raise others for meat, The Road is one of Cormac McCarthy's bleakest and most prescient novels. Dedicated to his son, John Francis McCarthy, McCarthy's The Road is one of his most personal novels. Ranked 17th on The Guardian's 100 Best Novels of the 21st century, it was the recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for literature, the James Tait Black Memorial Award, the Believer Award, and was nominated for the National Book Critics Circle Award. This first official graphic novel adaptation of McCarthy's work is illustrated by acclaimed French cartoonist Manu Larcenet, who ably transforms the world depicted by McCarthy's spare and brutal prose into stark ink drawings that add an additional layer to this haunting tale of family love and human perseverance. Cormac McCarthy personally approved the making of this book before his death, and the adaptation bears the approval of the McCarthy estate"--

The Fish Thief. by Lindsey Haskin, Thomas,film director.; Simmons, J.K.,actor.; The Film Sales Company (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
J.K. SimmonsOriginally produced by The Film Sales Company in 2024.J.K. Simmons narrates THE FISH THIEF, which explores the mystery behind how and why the fish most prized by people nearly disappeared from the largest freshwater ecosystem on Earth: the Great Lakes. The story dramatically illuminates nature’s links to our economic prosperity and quality of life. Since prehistoric times, fishing has been unusually important here. Aboriginal people fished for subsistence and fishing is central to their cultures. European immigrants drove the growth of a booming commercial fishing industry that employed thousands of people in Canada and the United States. Then disaster struck. THE FISH THIEF tells the story of remarkable people who tackled the mystery, first uncovering the cause, then tenaciously searching for a solution. The future of businesses, towns, tribal communities and First Nations hung in the balance. They discovered a problem that menaces ecosystems globally. What they accomplished continues to influence the Great Lakes region’s economic fortunes and sounds a warning about the future of natural resources and the prosperity of millions around the world today.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

A land so wide : a novel / by Craig, Erin A.,author.;
Like everyone else in the settlement of Mistaken, Greer Mackenzie is trapped. Founded by an ambitious lumber merchant, the village is blessed with rich natural resources that have made its people prosperous--but at a cost. The same woods that have lined the townsfolks' pockets harbor dangerous beasts: wolves, bears, and the Bright-Eyeds--monsters beyond description who have rained utter destruction down on nearby settlements. But Mistaken's founders made a deal with the mysterious Benevolence: the Warding Stones that surround the town will keep the Bright-Eyeds out--and the town's citizens in. Anyone who spends a night within Mistaken's borders belongs to it forever. Greer, a mapmaker and eccentric dreamer, has always ached to explore the world outside, even though she knows she and her longtime love, Ellis Beaufort, will never see it. Until, on the day she and Ellis are meant to finally begin their lives together, Greer watches in horror as her beloved disappears beyond the Warding Stones, pursued by a monstrous creature. Determined to rescue Ellis, she figures out a way to defy Mistaken's curse and begins a trek through the cold and pitiless wilderness. But there, Greer is hunted, not only by the ruthless Bright-Eyeds but by the secret truths behind Mistaken's founding and her own origins.
