Where She Met The Sea
In the windswept town of Marlow, perched on a peninsula between land and sea, man and orca work together to hunt monsters of the deep. But when ten-year-old Mary “Nessa” Lake vanishes without a trace, the townspeople fear a new monster stalks their community.
Private detective Linus Tripp is hired to investigate Nessa’s disappearance. As he delves into the case, he discovers Marlow is a town steeped in strange beliefs, its people deeply connected to the land and ocean. Linus begins to uncover unsettling secrets: the town’s link to the wild orcas, the disappearance of local drifters, and the chilling rumours of a legendary sea spirit.
Amidst the secrets, can Linus uncover what really happened to little Nessa Lake?

​​
In the 1950’s, a Siberian scientist began an experiment with one goal in mind - to breed a domesticated variation of the red fox. After ten generations of breeding the scientist had reduced the adrenalin levels in the animal and created a tame creature named the silver fox. Decades later, the Australian government use this knowledge to devise a shocking plan that will end humanity as the world knows it.
​
When Freya Walker and her family are ordered to attend a town meeting by the ruthless Biocentric government, Freya is certain something horrible will occur. The people of her town are split into four groups of people: As, Bs, Cs and Ds. Freya is the only one placed into the mysterious Bs group and transported to a ring in the bushland where she must survive a fortnight without food, water or weapons with her new companion and fellow Bs member, Whilliam Cliff.
​
As Freya and Whil begin to unravel the truth behind the Bs group, fighting for their freedom becomes a key part in overthrowing the Government and putting an end to their heinous plans for humanity.​​

​​
When alone, a fox is simply called a fox. However when foxes come together, the group is called an earth. The earth is then part of the fox. The earth is then the home of the fox. The earth then belongs to the fox.
After returning to the Beech clan following the rescue of her family, Freya Walker discovered that her peoples’ camp had been attacked by Biocentric guards and the young infants of the camp kidnapped to be raise as Alphas: vicious leaders of a new natural world.
Desperate to protect her clan and free the land from the rule of the ruthless Biocentric government, Freya convinces her companions to leave their rainforest sanctum and fight for freedom. Their key to achieving victory and freedom, however, rests in the hands of Governess Cassidy Warden, a Biocentric official with a secretive history, violent character, and obsession with breeding Alphas.
Working alongside her own companions and Cassidy Warden, Freya seeks out the stronghold of the Biocentric party with the passionate intent of destroying it and the leaders residing within. She struggles to contain the violent side of herself that emerges in the face of danger. She struggles to trust the unusual groups of people that offer their support. And she struggles to understand the cryptic whispers of a man who controls the Biocentrics from the shadows.

I have to give Red Fox five stars for showing me again why I love to read.

In a genre that has become somewhat cliched of late it is refreshing to find a book that has a new and interesting approach.
