Nine Elms
Robert Bryndza is ready to take the world by bestselling storm again with the introduction of Kate Marshall, a woman with a dark secret and a powerful sense of justice.
A DETECTIVE WHO WOULD STOP AT NOTHING
Kate Marshall was a rising star in the London Metropolitan police force. Young, ambitious and with a keen sense of justice, she solved several high-profile murder cases.
UNTIL A KILLER STOPPED HER IN HER TRACKS
But when Kate was tasked with tracking down a vicious serial killer, even her sharp instincts couldn't help her find him - until he found her.
NOW, HE'S BACK FOR MORE
Sixteen years after her narrow escape, Kate lives a quiet life on the English coast, though her years with the police are still with her. And when one day she receives a letter from someone in her past, she is pulled back into the twisted mind of a murderer she knows only too well - and into a case only she can solve.

Peter Pan
Peter Pan, the boy who refused to grow up, is one of the immortals of children's literature. J. M. Barrie first created Peter Pan as a baby, living in secret with the birds and fairies in the middle of London, but as the children for whom he invented the stories grew older, so too did Peter, reappearing in Neverland, where he was aided in his epic battles with Red Indians and pirates by the motherly and resourceful Wendy Darling. F. D. Bedford's wonderful illustrations have been beautifully coloured by Barbara Frith, one of Britain's leading colourists.

First You Write a Sentence.
The sentence is the common ground where every writer walks. A poet writes in sentences, but so does the unsung author who came up with Items trapped in doors cause delays. A good sentence can be written (and read) by anyone if we simply give it the gift of our time.
Enter widely-acclaimed author Professor Joe Moran. First You Write a Sentence is his unpedantic and authoritative explanation of how the most ordinary words can be turned into verbal constellations of extraordinary grace. Using examples ranging from the Bible and Shakespeare to George Orwell and Maggie Nelson, and studies of what can best fire the reader's mind, he shows how we can all write in a way that is clear, compelling and alive. Good writing can even help us notice the world better and live more meaningful lives.
It's an elegant gem in praise of the English sentence.

Magyarország globális története a kezdetektől 1868-ig
Honnan érkeztek az első földművelők a Kárpát-medencébe, és hogyan festettek a modern várostervezés kezdetei Magyarországon? Mikor szerepelt Magyarországon kiadott világtérképen először az amerikai kontinens, miként terjedt el az Újvilágból származó paprika? Kik szürcsöltek elsőként kávét kínai porcelánból Budán, és milyen szerepet játszott az Amerika leigázásából származó arany a magyarországi törökellenes háborúkban? Miért csókolta meg Szapolyai János Szulejmán szultán kezét? Miért okozta egy indonéz vulkánkitörés a nyár elmaradását Magyarországon, és miként lett az ország "akácnagyhatalom"?
E könyv - a Magyarország globális története, 1869-2022 idősebb testvére - nagyszabású kísérlet Magyarország történetének újragondolására. Szerzői - történészek, geológusok, régészek, nyelvészek, irodalmárok, a könyv-, a művészet- és építészettörténet, illetve a vallástudomány képviselői - az ország és lakosainak határokon átívelő kapcsolataiból és globális beágyazódottságaiból indulnak ki. Évezredek meghatározó jelentőségű, de mégis csak kevésbé ismert vagy nem kellően tudatosított történeteit elemzik tudományos színvonalon, ugyanakkor közérthető stílusban. Érdemben bemutatják, hogy - a változó kiterjedésű és formájú - Magyarország az elmúlt évezred során milyen módokon volt a globális történelem némileg sajátos, de nagyon is integráns része, és kapcsolatai idővel miként hálózták be bolygónkat.

Tales of Two Cities
Paris and London have long held a mutual fascination, and never more so than in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, when they both vied to be the world's greatest city. Each city has been the focus of many books, yet here Jonathan Conlin uncovers the intriguing relationship between them for the first time. It is a history of surprises: Sherlock Holmes was actually French, the can-can was English and the first restaurant served English food in Paris. Tales of Two Cities examines and compares six urban spaces - the street, the cemetery, the apartment, the restaurant, the music hall and the nocturnal underworld. The citizens of Paris and London were the first to create these landmarks of the modern cityscape. By borrowing, imitating and learning from each other they invented the modern metropolis and so defined urban living for us all.

Gimson's Kings and Queens
"A few faults are indispensable to a really popular monarch." (George Bernard Shaw). Gimson's Kings and Queens whirls us through the lives of our monarchs - from 1066 and William the Conqueror right up to Queen Elizabeth II and the present-day - to tell a tale of bastardy, courage, conquest, brutality, vanity, vulgarity, corruption, anarchy, absenteeism, piety, nobility, divorce, execution, civil war, madness, magnificence, profligacy, frugality, philately, abdication, dutifulness, family breakdown and family recovery. Written in Andrew Gimson's inimitable style, and illustrated by Martin Rowson, Gimson's Kings and Queens is both a primer and a refresher for anyone who can't quite remember which were the good and bad Edwards or Henrys, or why so-and-so succeeded to the throne rather than his second cousin. Published in August 2015, to coincide with the moment (in September) when Elizabeth II will (barring accident or shock abdication) become the longest-serving English monarch ever, Gimson's Kings and Queens will be the most entertaining and instructive book on the English monarchy you will ever read.
