On Mary Rose's eighteenth birthday, her grandmother asks her to fulfill her last wish: to return the fortune of the unicorn. It is a big task, it is a great journey, it is an honour and a burden. Mary Rose must not fail to complete this mission. At stake is everything her grandmother believes in - and everything she herself believes in. It takes all her courage, but she gets on her horse and travels from Scotland across Great Britain and Europe towards her destination. Yet, Mary Rose has no idea that this mission will turn her into a knight of the unicorn, nor that she will find what she had been looking for: her purpose. At the same time in a far away land, in the Austrian Alps, another young woman called Rosmarie is struggling with her own eighteenth birthday. She has always had the feeling, that something is missing. Suddenly, a family secret is revealed that changes everything in the eyes of Rosmarie. She wants to find out everything about the mysterious white horse, the witch who once lived in the forest and the unicorn which is the family's emblem. In the course of her inquiry she stumbles across broken pieces of the past. But the family puzzle is more complex than she thought. Will she solve it? Whilst Mary Rose needs all her strength to keep going, despite all the challenges on her way, Rosmarie is diving deeper and deeper into her family's secret history. Little do they know that they both will find the answers to their questions only when their paths cross.
The Return of the Unicorns

Beginning in 1984, Eric Dinerstein led a team directly responsible for the recovery of the greater one-horned rhinoceros in the Royal Chitwan National Park in Nepal, where the population had once declined to as few as 100 rhinos. The Return of the Unicorns is an account of what it takes to save endangered large mammals. In its pages, Dinerstein outlines the multifaceted recovery program—structured around targeted fieldwork and scientific research, effective protective measures, habitat planning and management, public-awareness campaigns, economic incentives to promote local guardianship, and bold, uncompromising leadership—that brought these extraordinary animals back from the brink of extinction. In an age when scientists must also become politicians, educators, fund-raisers, and activists to safeguard the subjects that they study, Dinerstein's inspiring story offers a successful model for large-mammal conservation that can be applied throughout Asia and across the globe.
Travels with the Unicorns
When a white unicorn with wings and a golden, silver-tipped horn visits a little girl, it delivers some advice: Remember who you are and believe in yourself. Years later, the girl is visited by a different unicorn who tells her, “We, the unicorns, want you to write our true stories, not the manmade ones.” A unicorn disguised as a white horse teaches the girl – now a woman – all about the true history of unicorns. She finds herself immersed in a vast, multidimensional world that includes the unicorn realm, which is a place of love and light. The woman experiences the unicorns’ spiritual teachings through adventures and meetings with an entourage of unicorns and entities that have been labeled “mythical” by humans. Their mission is to help humans reclaim their hearts and reconnect with nature. Anyone interested in unicorns and their spiritual teachings – as well as the differences between fact, fiction, and myth, will love Travels with the Unicorns.
