A major volcanic eruption has caused Isaiah, an orphaned island boy, to grow up as the adopted son of a privileged family overseas. Although he has never fit into life in the fast lane, when he returns to the place of his birth in an attempt to reconnect with his aging godmother, Krystal, and his Caribbean roots, he encounters much more than he bargained for. Back to the River, the third entry in Kristine Simelda's "River" series, is a heady mix of ghosts, Creole folklore, and time travel sure to keep readers of all ages mystified and entertained.

Set in the UK and Jamaica, Rise Up, Sista is a story about female friendship and the power of music to change individual lives and popular culture that spans over fifty years. Mercy Mae Williams, a Jamaican reggae artist, and Annabelle Sinclair, a British rocker, meet as young women in London in 1963. It's a heady era-cultural revolution and fresh musical genres explode on both sides of the Atlantic.
