So named after spotting a yowie (an Australian "bigfoot") in the rugged Snowy Mountains of Australia, Tim the Yowie Man is a mystery investigator and "cryptonaturalist" who is fast becoming the world's pre-eminent authority on strange and bizarre phenomena... Tim can be best described as Fox Mulder from the X-Files meets the Bushtucker Man. From his headquarters located in the heart of the nation's capital, Canberra, Tim travels extensively around Australia and the world to investigate hidden or unnatural and natural phenomena. Poltergeist in the pantry? Bunyip in the basement? That's right - if anything bizarre has happened in the world, Tim is first on the scene to investigate and validate. Tim is also a merry prankster and agent provocateur. His most audacious exploit to date was gate-crashing the filming of the US "Survivor II" series in outback Qld. His daring stunt of dropping chocolate bars from a helicopter to the show's contestants, as well as posting a map divulging the secret location of the "Survivor II" site on his personal website incited an international media frenzy and much gnashing of teeth from CBS TV executives. Receiving some1.5 million daily hits to his website, articles in the Australian and international press (from the New York Post to The Washington Post), scores of radio and TV interviews as well as a spot as guest commentator for "Survivor II" on Access Hollywood,Tim the Yowie Man became an instant larrikin sensation. The Adventures of Tim the Yowie Man is jam-packed with more than a dozen classic, spooky and kooky adventures including: * Illegally trespassing on the top secret set of the "Survivor II" TV series - chartering a chopper and dropping chocolate bars on the show's contestants as outraged producers and TV execs race about in a panic and later threaten to sue Tim's shorts off... * Diving in the murky depths of the Loch Ness in search of Nessie * Trekking in the Swiss Alps Valley of Lotschental on the trail of the Hairy Man * Struggling with the Hawaiian Lava Tubes Pig Monster * Fending off an attack from an aggressive rock ape at the Rock of Gibraltar * Coming face to face with a Tasmanian tiger in the vast wilds of western Tasmania * Searching for the mysterious Min Min Lights in central Australia All this and much, much more as Tim the Yowie Man investigates those stories that upon hearing you think to yourself, "that can't possibly be true...Or can it?"

Book excerpt: In famed author-illustrator P.J. Lynch’s gorgeous tale, he creates two worlds—underwater and above—to tell an epic and haunting love story. Jacob and his father are the only people who fish Lake Spetzia, which was formed when the river was dammed and their town was flooded. The villagers say the lake is haunted, but Jacob and his father don’t want to leave, because Jacob’s mother is buried in the cemetery below the water. As Jacob grows up, a village girl named Ellen falls in love with him, and he with her. But before they are married, Jacob disappears—lured underwater by the ghosts who inhabit the sunken village. Years go by, with Jacob held captive by the watery spirits and Ellen never giving up hope that she will find him, until a fateful night when Jacob sees the light of Ellen’s boat floating above. Can he break free and reach the surface? Masterful illustrations alive with achingly expressive characters and eerie underwater light bring readers into acclaimed creator P.J. Lynch’s rich world of love, loss, and hope.
