"The Emissary grabs you from the first page--a can't-put-down read. The story has pace, excitement as well as a compelling message.

This story is a fast-moving thriller entwined with a vitally important message for all of us. Go buy a copy!"
-- Peter Brightman, CEO, International Entertainment Corporation

"We are given, excitement, mystery, deception, beautiful moments.... I found the story to be more about gaining a deeper connection and being more conscious to the effect we have on the things around us. It is for sure an enlightening tale that leaves you a tad sad but feeling that you witnesses something magical."
--Hooked in a Book

"As a stand-alone fiction book The Emissary is one hell of a good story, but read between the lines and you'll discover so much more! Patricia Cori's inspirational protagonist, Jamie Hastings, has much to teach us all--and while the book may be set in the often unchartered territories of whales and dolphins, it carries a powerful message that none of us can afford to miss. As I was drawn into the well-written, intriguing and un-put-downable tale, the figure of Erin Brockovich kept coming to mind. And I have no doubt that in the future The Emissary will be turned into one of those films that we'll look back on as a world game-changer."
--Olivia Stefanino, author of Be Your Own Guru: Personal and Business Enlightenment in Just 3 Days!

"The Emissary packs a delicious adventure filled with intrigue and secrets and whisks you off on a ride that you don't want to get off. Through the story that unfolds it also invites all of us to look at the role we play in our evolving world. Through the fast-paced events that occur, deftly led by our heroine Jamie Hastings, readers are guided to become emissaries as well--sent on a very special mission that is born from author Patricia Cori's passion in the world. That mission for some may be to curl up in a chair, to give themselves a respite from life's demands, and get lost in the voyage of The Emissary. For others, the special mission becomes a journey of self-exploration, of appreciation of all creatures great and small, and an invitation to fully embrace our roles as ambassadors of our planet. It's a story of hope, dedication, and perseverance. But more, it's a story of love between a very special woman and those who create the songs in our waters. May we use the messages contained within The Emissary to help us ensure those songs continue forever."
--Christine Andrew, Enlightening Radio

"The Emissary is a 'cannot-put-it-down' book. Its tale of a world drowning in self-interest and greed, out to destroy the very guardians of that world, the Cetaceans, starts the reader on a roller coaster of excitement, intrigue, and race against time. Patricia Cori's pace, vivid imagery, and sensitivity skillfully unfurls a deepening, gripping, and horrifying tale. For those who love this blue marble, I challenge you not to be so absorbed that you will want to read it at one sitting. A story never riper to be complimented as a thunderingly good screenplay, The Emissary is a modern day masterpiece. Belt up and love the ride!"
--Jonathan Trapman, author and visual artist
