Intercepted e-mails alert Homeland Security to the possibility of a terrorist attack on South Florida staged from a Bahamian island. Rhonda and Morgan Early are again recruited by the Drug Enforcement Administration to monitor suspicious activity on Bimini, located just fifty miles from Miami. Ahmed Atta needs money to implement his plan to kill sixty-five thousand Americans. He busts convicted cartel leader Victor Torres from jail for one million dollars. When Rhonda and Morgan learn of suspicious activity on Bimini, they rush to the island to thwart any potential danger. Torres inadvertently assists the terrorists by attempting to avenge his earlier capture by Morgan and Rhonda. He snatches their son and lures them to his trafficking headquarters on Plana Cay with the intent to brutally murder them. Meanwhile, Ahmed Atta's brilliant plan to kill an unfathomable number of Americans proceeds unabated.

Exploring America in the 1960s: Our Voices Will Be Heard is an interdisciplinary humanities unit that looks at literature, art, and music of the 1960s to provide an understanding of how those living through the decade experienced and felt about the many social changes taking place around them. Through the lens of "identity," it explores why these changes occurred and lends an ear to the voices of the groups that clamored for them. Cultural icons like the Kennedys, the Beatles, Andy Warhol, and the Beach Boys are examined alongside larger issues such as the Civil Rights and women's rights movements and the Vietnam War. The unit uses field-tested instructional strategies for language arts and social studies from The College of William and Mary, as well as new strategies, and it includes graphic organizers and other learning tools. It can be used to complement a social studies or language arts curriculum or as standalone material in a gifted program. Grades 6-8
