Three women. One Killer.
Talking to strangers has never been more dangerous...
When forty-four-year-old Karen Simmons is found lifeless, abandoned in remote woodland, journalist Kiki Nunn is determined to beat every other reporter to the story.
And she already has a head start. Just days before Karen’s murder, Kiki interviewed her about the highs and lows of mid-life romance. Karen told her about the expensive gifts and the starlit rendezvous. About the scammers and the creeps...
While police stay focused on local suspects, Kiki starts to write the definitive piece on one woman's fatal search for love. But she will soon learn that the search for truth can be just as deadly...
What if everything you’ve been told about money is wrong?
Have you ever been told that cutting your spending is the key to financial freedom?
Or that only a fool would try to make money by picking stocks?
Or that buying your home is always a smart investment?
Most of us have heard these truisms from friends, from family, even from financial experts. They are held up as nuggets of timeless wisdom. There’s just one problem: none of them is true.
Over the last decade, the world of money has transformed – but the mainstream financial advice hasn’t caught up. The result: most of us are being fed money advice that will only take us further from our financial goals.
Here, a leading investor debunks seven of the most common misconceptions about money, and explains why the true path to wealth is dramatically different from what you’ve been told. Confounding and eminently practical, Seven Myths About Money sketches out a radically new route to financial freedom – one fit for the twenty-first century.
This is a book for when you feel overwhelmed – whether you’re facing grief, fear, self-doubt, relationship issues, difficult decisions, burnout, regrets or don’t know how to ask for help.
Each chapter begins with a letter from Dr Julie to the reader offering comfort and perspective. She then follows with her trademark simple and straightforward advice to help you see clearly how best to respond and act.
Showing you how to re-frame life’s complex problems, Open When . . . will help you navigate any crisis or tough moment and return to a place of calmness, strength and positivity.
Khaled and Mustafa meet at university in Edinburgh: two Libyan eighteen-year-olds expecting to return home after their studies. In a moment of recklessness and courage, they travel to London to join a demonstration in front of the Libyan embassy. When government officials open fire on protestors in broad daylight, both friends are wounded, and their lives forever changed.
Over the years that follow, Khaled, Mustafa and their friend Hosam, a writer, are bound together by their shared history. If friendship is a space to inhabit, theirs becomes small and inhospitable when a revolution in Libya forces them to choose between the lives they have created in London and the lives they left behind.
How did the world's most remarkable people get that way?
This is a book about how the highest-performing people changed their lives - and how you can change yours.
Drawing on interviews with record-setting athletes, Olympic coaches and billionaire founders, Jake Humphrey and Professor Damian Hughes introduce the five simple steps that take you from where you are to where you want to be. And they introduce the cutting-edge research that explains why these surprisingly simple tools are so effective.
It is never too late to change. This book shows you how.
The wish of Pope Francis was for HOPE, on which he has been working for six years, to be published posthumously. However, with the Jubilee Year of Hope coming in 2025 and the pressing needs of our times have urged Pope Francis to share this personal legacy now.
HOPE is the revelatory first-ever autobiography to be published by a sitting Pope. Beginning in the early years of the twentieth century, Pope Francis tells the story of his life from his childhood in Buenos Aires to his calling and the whole of his papacy to the present day, while reflecting on controversial questions from global conflicts to the future of the Church, and discussing his personal passions from football to tango.
HOPE is both powerful and intimate, inspiring and full of stories never told before. It is the story of a life and, at the same time, a touching moral and spiritual testament that will fascinate readers throughout the world and will represent his legacy of hope for future generations.
The light-hearted, hilarious and gorgeous novel from the much-loved classic author.
Shy, dreamy, and incurably romantic, Harriet Poole was shattered when her brief affair with Simon Villiers, Oxford's leading playboy undergraduate, ended abruptly, leaving her penniless, alone and pregnant. Still hopelessly in love with Simon, she took baby William and buried herself in deepest Yorkshire as nanny to the children of Cory Erskine, a somewhat eccentric scriptwriter.
Local tongues were just beginning to wag when a whole host of visitors began to arrive to disrupt Harriet's peaceful routine: first Cory's estranged wife Noel, hellbent on winning Cory back, then Cory's glamorous brother Kit, whose old affair with Noel didn't stop him making passes at Harriet, and finally, of all people, Simon...

Long simmering chemistry is released when a hurricane forces two exes to weather the storm in a house they used to share.
Hot shot DC lawyer Meena is about to get engaged to the perfect man. The only hitch? She is already married…
Which is why she ends up travelling home to convince her first-love-slash-husband (courtesy of one slightly too wild night in Vegas nearly a decade ago) to finally agree to get UN-hitched.
But life loves to throw curve balls, or in this case, a good old natural disaster. Meena touches down just in time to find out a hurricane hitting Houston - all flights are cancelled and the only place she can take refuge? Her soon-to-be-ex-husband's home.
Will the storm force them to face what happened all those years ago? And might this be the best worst thing that has ever happened to them

It’s Camilla’s first day back at work, her daughter’s first day at nursery. But husband Luke is nowhere to be seen. The only trace of him is an unfinished note. Camilla tries to put it out of her mind; there must be a rational explanation. Then it starts.Breaking news: there's a hostage situation developing in London. The police arrive: Luke is caught up in it.
But he isn't a hostage. Luke - doting father, successful writer, enthusiastic runner and eternal optimist - is the gunman. What Camilla does next is crucial. Because only she knows what the note he left behind says, and the clues it might hold . . .
The intricacy of modern life has created a false dichotomy between things that are 'hard and important,' and those that are 'easy and trivial.' Everything has become so much harder than it ought to be. But, Greg McKeown, bestselling author of Essentialism, says, there is a third alternative.
In Effortless, he offers practical tools for making the most essential activities the easiest ones, so you can achieve the results you want, without burning out. Honed over the better part of a decade, these strategies include:
·Turning tedious tasks into enjoyable rituals
·Preventing frustration by solving problems before they arise
·Setting a sustainable pace instead of powering through
·Making one-time choices that eliminate many future decisions
·Making relationships easier to maintain and manage
·And much more
McKeown's philosophy of essentialism has helped thousands to recognise that the effortless way isn't the lazy way. It's the smart way. Not every hard thing in life can be made easy but we can make it easier to do more of what matters most. Effortless will show you how.
It is late September in 2001 and the walls of New York are papered over with photos of the missing. Cora Brady’s father is there, the poster she made taped to columns and bridges. Her mother died long ago and now, orphaned on the cusp of adulthood, Cora is adrift and alone. Soon, a letter will arrive with the offer of a new life: far out on the ragged edge of Ireland, in the town where her parents were young, an estranged aunt can provide a home and fulfil a long-forgotten promise. There the story of Cora's family is hidden, and in her presence will begin to unspool…
An essential, immersive debut from an astonishing new voice, Confessions traces the arc of three generations of women as they experience in their own time the irresistible gravity of the past: its love and tragedy, its mystery and redemption, and, in all things intended and accidental, the beauty and terrible shade of the things we do.
The Soviet Don Quixote, Chevengur is now seen by many Russian writers as Russia's greatest novel of the last century.
'Platonov is an extraordinary writer, perhaps the most brilliant Russian writer of the twentieth century' New York Review of Books
The Soviet Don Quixote, Chevengur is now seen by many Russian writers as Russia's greatest novel of the last century. This is the first English version to convey its subtlety and depth.
Zakhar Pavlovich comes from a world of traditional crafts to work as a train mechanic, motivated by his belief in the transformative power of industry. His adopted son, Sasha Dvanov, embraces revolution, which will transform everything: the words we speak and the lives we live, souls and bodies, the soil underfoot and the sun overhead.
Seeking communism, Dvanov joins up with Stepan Kopionkin, a warrior for the cause whose steed is the fearsome cart horse Strength of the Proletariat. Together they cross the steppe, meeting counter-revolutionaries, desperados and visionaries of all kinds. At last they reach the isolated town of Chevengur. There communism is believed to have been achieved because everything that is not communism has been eliminated. And yet even in Chevengur the revolution recedes from sight.
Comic, ironic, grotesque, disturbingly poetic in its use of language and profoundly sorrowful, Chevengur is a revolutionary novel about revolutionary ardour and despair. Unpublished during Andrey Platonov’s life, it is now one of the most celebrated Russian novels, and the most ambitious and moving of Platonov’s recreations of a world undergoing revolutionary transformation.
'It was from the novel Chevengur that I learned to create \"literary worlds\". Platonov is a self-taught literary jeweller, a true believer who built dystopias. His love for his characters is instantly conveyed to readers' Andrey Kurkov

Pruskie Twin Peaks: zagadka, która wstrząsnęła spokojnym miasteczkiem W Konitzville, w Prusach Wschodnich, życie płynęło powolnym rytmem - do dnia, gdy odkryto poćwiartowane szczątki młodego Ernesta Wintera, ukryte w różnych zakątkach miasta. Lokalną społeczność ogarnia fala niepokoju. Pojawiają się podejrzenia rytualnego mordu, a uśpione konflikty wybuchają ze zdwojoną siłą. Zanim zagadka zostanie wyjaśniona, przez Konitzville przetoczy się lawina wściekłości i pogardy. Płomienie antysemiztyzmu sięgną wyżej niż kiedykolwiek wcześniej. Ta oparta na kanwie prawdziwych wydarzeń powieść pokazuje, jak mrok ludzkiej natury zmienia senne miasteczko w epicentrum strachu, manipulacji oraz przemocy. Nienawiść, podsycana przez mieszkańców, przyjmuje w Konitzville różne formy i szybko infekuje okolicę, co staje się zalążkiem najmroczniejszych wydarzeń XX-wiecznej Europy.
