Caller Unknown
A road trip across America with her teenage daughter was meant to be much-needed bonding time for Simone before Lucy leaves home for university.
But on the first night of their stay, in a cabin deep in the Texan desert, Simone wakes to find Lucy missing and a mobile phone in her place. The phone rings and the voice on the other end issues instructions: Don't tell the police. Come to this location. Be prepared to do a deal…
There is nothing Simone wouldn't do to save her daughter. Hide the truth. Commit a terrible crime. Become a wanted woman.
But this is no ordinary kidnap and ransom. Getting Lucy back is just the beginning.

All The Other Mothers Hate Me
Maybe having a few enemies on the school run means you're doing something right…
Florence knows all about failure. After a dismal end to her 2000s girlband career, she's moping around West London, single, broke and unfulfilled. The only things she's proud of are her increasingly elaborate nail art choices - and her ten-year-old son, Dylan.
But when Alfie Risby, Dylan's bitter class rival and the child heir to a frozen foods empire, mysteriously vanishes on a school trip, Dylan becomes a prime suspect. Florence has to get her act together, find the missing boy and clear her son's name or risk losing him forever. The only problem? She doesn't have any detective skills, she's not exactly popular at the school gates and she's just found Alfie's backpack hidden under Dylan's bed…
All the Other Mothers Hate Me is an irresistibly witty novel about fitting in, starting over and the lengths we'll go to for the people we love.
The Tattooed Hills
Across Britain, and especially in the southern chalklands, is a series of figures cut into the hills, exposing the chalk beneath. These hill-figures are strange, mysterious, and sometimes controversial. They are of varying and often contested age, and vague purpose. They are horses, giants, crosses, a lion, a lost panda, crowns, a kiwi, regimental badges. They are often sited near ancient trackways, iron age earthworks or dissolved monasteries, and or close to stone circles. Some are faded or lost, their names preserved only in the names of valleys or hills.Humans have long decorated their landscapes, but chalk hill figures are, almost uniquely, a feature of the English downland. This means they are sometimes seen as emblematic of Englishness, celebrated by poets, writers, artists and musicians. The book is a portrait of the places where these figures dominate, bringing in history, politics, literature, music, film and TV, but with a light touch. The Tattooed Hills isn’t a nostalgic elegy for England, instead it uses the figures as a lens through which to explore the land and delves into more troubling undercurrents – the way that chalk hill figures have sometimes been appropriated, in an attempt to pin down a narrow definition of Englishness and belonging.Chalk carvings are signals for our identity and identities, and that their long history, the way they have inspired artists, musicians and writers, and the communities that live in their shadows, offer an alternative way of thinking about ourselves. Often created as memorials for historical events, their meanings, like their shape, have shifted over the years, these new interpretations reflecting our changing society and values. They are beacons on the hills, they speak to us and of us, no matter where we live or where we’re from.

A Hundred Years to Arras
A freezing Easter Monday in 1917. The Somerset Light Infantry is launched into the Battle of Arras. Three young friends fight for their lives and the chance to return home. Robert is twenty-three years old, a farmer’s boy from Somerset, who joins up against his father’s wishes. Robert forms fast friendships with Stanley, who lied about his age to go to war, and Ernest, whose own slippery account betrays a life on the streets. Their friendship is forged through gas attacks, trench warfare, freezing in trenches, hunting rats, and chasing down kidnapped regimental dogs. Their life is one of mud and mayhem but also love and laughs. This is the story of Robert’s journey to Arras and back, his dreams and memories drawing him home.

With rare photographs of the club and its members, this book details how the organisation endured its early challenges, particularly during the trials following Milperra.

Lázár
„A sötét erdő szélét még mindig egy kimúló évszázadból megmaradt hó borította, amikor Lázár Lajos, a vízkék szemű, áttetsző gyermek először látta meg azt a férfit, akit annak halála után is apjának tekintett.”
Minden elkezdődik, még a vég is. Lázár Lajos születésével, az erdei kastély falai között, beköszönt a 20. század, amely örökre megváltoztatja a Magyarország déli részén élő Lázár bárók régi életét. A Habsburg Birodalom bukásával felbomlik a régi világrend, széthullik a nemesség és az elhallgatott családi titkokkal terhelt látszólag biztonságos jólét is: Sándor, a tekintélyes családfő, szégyelli fia különcségét; Ilona, visszataszítónak találja kisöccsét; Mária, a gyönyörű édesanya, retteg, hogy valakinek feltűnik a kísérteties hasonlóság gyermeke és a két hete elhunyt fiatal lovászlegény között, míg Sándor fivérét, Imrét, akinek túlvilági látomásait gyakran őrültségnek bélyegzik, egy közelgő katasztrófa víziói gyötrik.
„…akkor fogta fel, hogy minden megváltozott. A világ, amelyben megismerkedtek és elbúcsúztak egymástól, már nem létezett.”
A Lázár egy magyar nemesi család több generáción átívelő történetét és hanyatlását meséli el a viharos 20. századi események hátterében egészen 1956-ig. A fiatal svájci író egy új generáció friss hangja, regénye egyszerre modern és időtlen. A mű mesterien teremt atmoszférát: a családi rezidencia, valamint az azt körülölelő, baljósan sötét, mesebeli erdő élénken kelnek életre az olvasó előtt, miközben a regény finoman kikacsint Gabriel García Márquez és Thomas Mann világára.
A Lázár 2025-ben meghódította a nyugat-európai olvasókat:

Ešte jedna šanca
V jedno ráno sa dvadsaťjeden ročnej Linde obráti život hore nohami. Aleš – muž, ktorého milovala celým srdcom – jej z ničoho nič oznámi, že s ňou nechce ďalej žiť. Zlomená a zúfalá, s kufrom v ruke, odchádza hľadať odpustenie tam, kde by ju nikto nečakal.
Návrat do rodného domu jej však neprináša útechu. Ostáva zavretá medzi štyrmi stenami svojej starej izby, kde sa utápa v žiali. Mladšia sestra to s ňou ale nevzdáva a napokon sa jej podarí Lindu vrátiť do normálneho života.
Keď stretne záhadného Andreja, všetko sa opäť zmení. Linda sa zamiluje – nečakane, prudko, hoci si myslela, že sa to už nikdy nemôže stať. Lenže s Andrejom sa v jej živote vynárajú aj noví démoni. Okolo neho sa stále motá jeho bývalá priateľka. Žiarlivosť, o ktorej si myslela, že ju má pod kontrolou, ju začne pohlcovať.
Je to len jej strach, ktorý vytvára pochybnosti, alebo Andrej skutočne niečo tají?
Dokáže sa Linda preniesť cez svoju prehnanú žiarlivosť?
Usmeje sa na ňu už konečne šťastie, alebo sa jej osud opäť kruto vysmeje?
