When the police begin to suspect her loyal servants, Her Majesty knows they are looking in the wrong place.
For the Queen has been living an extraordinary double life ever since her coronation. Away from the public eye, she has a brilliant knack for solving crimes.
With her household's happiness on the line, her secret must not get out. Can the Queen and her trusted secretary Rozie catch the killer, without getting caught themselves?
Miss Marple meets The Crown in The Windsor Knot, the first book in the 'Her Majesty The Queen Investigates' mystery series by SJ Bennett - for fans of The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman, Agatha Christie and M.C. Beaton's Agatha Raisin.
I Went to See My Father
Soon after losing her own daughter in a tragic accident, Hon returns to her childhood home in the Korean countryside after many years away. Her father, a cattle farmer, is elderly and requires her care. He is withdrawn, kind but awkward around his own daughter.
As time passes however, Hon realises that her father is far more complex than she ever realised. The discovery of a chest of letters and conversations with his family and friends help Hon piece together the tumultuous story of his life. She learns of her father's experiences during the Korean War and the violence of the 19th April Revolution; of a love affair and involvement in a religious sect; of his sacrifice and heroism and of the phantoms that haunt him. As she unravels secret after secret, Hon grows closer to her father, realising that his lifelong kindness belies a past wrought in both private and national trauma.
More than just the portrait of one man, I Went to See My Father opens a window onto humankind, family, loss and war. It asks us to look at the ones we love, uncover the secrets they keep, and finally see who they really are. Flawlessly rendered by award-winning translator Anton Hur, Kyung-Sook Shin has crafted a novel both affectionate and epic, joyous and lasting.
Big Ideas from Literature
This third book in the best-selling Big Ideas series introduces readers to the classics, as well as modern children’s fiction—a charming addition to Big Ideas for Curious Minds and Big Ideas from History
Great stories are often universal: our very souls shine with new ideas when we read them. Books can be so powerful, helping us through tricky times, offering us wisdom we haven’t learnt yet, showing us that there are people like us, or showing us the opposite, that other people live very different lives. Books can be a friend when you need one the most and you can use them to help and inspire others, too.
Big Ideas from Literature helps the child discover key ideas that lots of different books are trying to teach through the stories they tell – and helps the growing child develop empathy and resilience.
This book teaches children (and adults!) about the history of literature, from the first ever story that was written down to the invention of books just for children. The best children’s books become our dearest friends and companions.
Children discover characters from a diverse range of books – including J. M. Barrie’s Peter Pan, The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind by William Kamkwamba and Young Dark Emu: A Truer History by Bruce Pascoe – and learn how these stories can help them better understand the world around them.
The Biology of Belief
Exploring the revolutionary science behind the power of thought, this book will forever change how you think about your own thinking.
This new updated and expanded 10th anniversary edition of The Biology of Belief contains stunning new scientific discoveries about the biochemical effects of the brain's functioning that show all the cells of your body are affected by your thoughts. Bruce H. Lipton PhD, a renowned cell biologist, describes the precise molecular pathways through which this occurs. Using simple language, illustrations, humour and everyday examples, he demonstrates how the new science of epigenetics is revolutionizing our understanding of the link between mind and matter, and the profound effects it has on our personal lives and the collective life of our species.
It has been 10 years since the publication of The Biology of Belief, Bruce Lipton's seminal book on the relationship between mind and body that changed the way we think about our lives, our health and our planet. During that time, research in this field has grown exponentially - Lipton's ground-breaking experiments have now been endorsed by more than a decade of rigorous scientific study.
In this greatly expanded edition, Lipton explores his own experiments and those of other leading-edge scientists that have unravelled in ever greater detail how truly connected the mind, body and spirit are. It is now widely recognized that genes and DNA do not control our biology. Instead, they are controlled by signals from outside the cell, including energetic messages emanating from our thoughts.
This profoundly hopeful synthesis of the latest and best research in cell biology and quantum physics puts the power to create a healthy, joyous life back in our own hands. When we transform our conscious and subconscious thoughts, we transform our lives, and in the process help humanity evolve to a new level of understanding and peace.

Soccer Shooting Tips
Is your soccer team getting a lot of chances but unable to score? Or you are personally unable to score goals as a striker? Take your soccer shooting skills to the next level with our book
Read below: If you do not shoot, you cannot score. That lesson must be instilled into players right from the first time they kick a football. Of course, we want every player to develop game awareness, to know when a pass is the best option, but if players become concerned about criticism if they shoot and miss, then they will be in a team that never scores. And therefore, never wins.
The pleasure of striking the ball cleanly, and sending it flying into the back of the net is impossible to put into words. Just look at professionals when they succeed in their aim (and with their aim, of course). The spectacular scissors kick, overhead effort, perfect chip sends the player, their team and any crowd into a state of euphoria. Equally important, and often just as satisfying, is the neat and simple finish; the awareness of being in the right place, the speed of reaction when the ball breaks, the calmness under pressure to slide the ball home.
Go to almost any general compilation of clips online and the overwhelming majority will be shots – usually ones that lead to a goal. This book will provide a series of drills which will help coaches and players to become star shooters, leading to more goals, more wins and even greater joy at playing this most beautiful of games.

Sunset Swing
WINNER OF CWA GOLD DAGGER FOR CRIME NOVEL OF THE YEAR AND CWA HISTORICAL DAGGER
Los Angeles. Christmas, 1967. A city on fire as a killer strikes...
A young nurse, Kerry Gaudet, travels to the City of Angels desperate to find her missing brother, fearing that something terrible has happened to him: a serial killer is terrorizing the city, picking victims at random, and Kerry has precious few leads.
Ida Young, recently retired private investigator, is dragged into helping the police when a young woman is discovered murdered in her motel room. Ida has never met the victim but her name has been found at the crime scene and the LAPD wants to know why...
Meanwhile Mob fixer Dante Sanfelippo has put his life savings into purchasing a winery in Napa Valley but first he must do one final favour for the Mob before leaving town: find a bail jumper before the bond money falls due, and time is fast running out.
Ida’s friend, Louis Armstrong, flies into the city just as her investigations uncover mysterious clues to the killer’s identity. And Dante must tread a dangerous path to pay his dues, a path which will throw him headlong into a terrifying conspiracy and a secret that the conspirators will do anything to protect...
Completing his American crime quartet, Ray Celestin’s Sunset Swing is a stunning novel of conspiracy, murder and madness, an unforgettable portrait of a city on the edge.
The Truth About Lisa Jewell
Have you ever thought about what it takes to become a bestselling writer?
If so, The Truth About Lisa Jewell is the book for you. It is the story of how a novel is written, from before the start to after the finish; it's an in-depth analysis of how that novel fits into a bestselling author like Lisa Jewell's career and her previous work, and what her style shares with authors from James Joyce to Martin Amis.
But this is more than just a study of an author at the top of her game. Like Lisa Jewell's much-loved novels, it's also the story of a relationship - between the bestselling author and the professor of cultural studies who has made her his muse - evolving slowly as the world comes gradually out of Covid. It's the story of two very different writers getting to know each other gradually through words; two complete strangers becoming something more like friends.
A must-have for fans of Lisa Jewell, for aspiring authors who are interested in the path to success - and a testament to the way books can bring us together. . .
Jawa kolem světa
Svět umí být někdy báječným místem pro život a rozhodně jeden z nejkrásnějších pohledů na něj musí být ze sedla motorky. Své o tom ví Pavel Suchý (1974), který jako první český motorkář objel Zemi. Kromě odvahy a štěstí mu rozhodně neschází nadání dobrého pozorovatele a snad ještě lepšího vypravěče. Svou osmiměsíční cestu kolem planety v sedle skoro čtyřicetileté Jawy líčí s pro něj typickou nadsázkou a lehkou ironií, přičemž si všímá historických i dalších souvislostí, zážitky nezveličuje a pracuje s dnes nepříliš módní pokorou. To dává jeho stylu lidský a inspirativní rozměr, který činí z již tak jedinečného příběhu ještě atraktivnější čtení.
Jak lze se starou českou motorkou dokázat to, na čem ztroskotaly mnohem lépe vybavené výpravy s velkými rozpočty? Sám a bez doprovodu? Jak se bez GPS překonávají rozlehlé světové pouště jako je Gobi či Atacama? Jak se nocuje v pampách, na dohled od Antarktidy nebo naopak v tropických pralesech? V čem spočívala příprava a na kolik to všechno přišlo? Proč to všechno a stálo to za to? Odpovědi nejen na tyhle otázky jsou mezi deskami knihy – zpovědi motorkáře, který na cestě kolem Země vybojoval nejen souboj se sebou samým, ale nakonec i se smrtelnou diagnózou, o níž se v náznacích zmiňuje už od půlky svého deníku.
Autor je novinář a v současnosti spolupracovník motoportálu Motorkari.cz, v minulosti dlouholetý technický redaktor a později šéfredaktor dvou renomovaných motocyklových časopisů. Během své praxe najel za řídítky přes 550 000 kilometrů, na svém kontě má motocyklové výpravy do Afriky, cesty po celé Evropě a evropské části Ruska i výpravy na Sibiř, na Krym, na ruský sever a do republik Dagestán, Čečensko, Tatarstán a Marij-El. K jeho motorkářským zkušenostem rovněž patří Austrálie a JAR. Je prvním Čechem, který na motocyklu objel svět – sám, bez asistence a GPS, na staré Jawě 350 vyřazené třebíčskou autoškolou… Sám k tomu dnes jen lakonicky dodává: „Najednou se mi chtělo jet. A tak jsem jel!“
A szépség színei 1: Sophia reménye
Berlin, 1926. Sophia az egyetemi kémiai tanulmányai során beleszeret a professzorába, és hamarosan rájön, hogy ez a szerelem fenekestül felforgatta az életét. A szülői házban nincs többé maradása: Párizsba utazik a legjobb barátnőjével, ahol új lehetőségek tárulnak fel előtte.
Tudja, hogy család és férj híján egyedül kell kézbe vennie a sorsát. Krémeket kever, házalni kezd velük, és pillanatok alatt lenyűgözi a nagy illatszermágust, Helena Rubinsteint, aki egy különös feltétellel állást ajánl neki New York-i szépségbirodalmában. Vajon Sophia meg tudja hódítani az Újvilágot? Helyt tud állni a világ egyik legerősebb asszonya mellett? Képes elfogadni az új kihívásokat akkor is, ha minden romba dől körülötte? Corina Bomann regénye a szerelem, a karrier és a kitartás története egy olyan korban, amikor a rátermett nőknek is folyvást bizonyítaniuk kellett.
A lebilincselő, korhű kötetben, amely egy trilógia első része, egy tehetséges fiatal lány kontinenseken átívelő, rögös útját kísérhetjük végig.

We Had To Remove This Post

But soon the job seems to change them all, shifting their worlds in alarming ways. How long before the moderators own morals bend and flex under the weight of what they see?
