We Will See You Bleed
It's late summer 1984, and Babs Dionne's hometown of Waterville, Maine is on the verge of collapse. A strike at the paper mill has dragged on for a year, pitting neighbour against neighbour, leaving everyone broke and exhausted. As head of the union local, Babs has presided over Little Canada's decline. She's sworn off violence since killing a man when she was a teenager, and has stuck to this vow even as it's become clear that only violence can save their community. When Babs' best friend Rita returns home after five years away, she is shocked by the state of things. And as the strike comes to a head, Rita notices something else: the men may be broken, but the women are furious, ready to do whatever necessary to take back Little Canada. They just need Babs to be the fearless woman who emerged from the woods fifteen years ago, drenched in blood. They need Babs to face what she already knows: that the only way to fix things is to assume control. Completely. Mercilessly.

'The characters are what draw me back to this series, and also the humour’ ? *** Ex-Metropolitan Police sergeant Jodie Parker and her new husband, DCI Nathan Withers, are honeymooning at a luxurious eco-resort on a secluded Cornish island. But there's a twist: they're undercover, as the resort’s owner has hired them to investigate a series of sabotages, and Jodie's mum Shirley and daughter Daisy – and their dog, Germaine – have somehow managed to get themselves invited along too. The happy couple plan to make the most of the five star facilities, while discreetly questioning staff and guests. However, when a fierce storm traps everyone on the island, tragedy strikes – a guest is found dead in the wreckage of the boathouse, and it looks like murder… With a killer among them, it’s up to Jodie and Nathan to solve the mystery before another life is lost.

Psyhoterapeutka v akcii
Mimoriadne zábavná detektívka od najobľúbenejšej britskej terapeutky a autorky kníh Toto mali čítať naši rodičia a Toto by si mali prečítať všetci, ktorých máte radi.
Keď sa pri útesoch Beachy Head nájde telo, polícia prípad rýchlo uzavrie ako samovraždu. Tragické, ale v tomto kraji nič neobvyklé. Miestna psychoterapeutka Patricia Phillipsová však o tom nie je presvedčená. Mŕtvy muž bol totiž jej pacient. Henry Clayton mal prísť na terapiu presne o tretej – namiesto toho však skončil mŕtvy pod útesom. Podľa úradov si smrť spôsobil sám. Pat sa však nedokáže zbaviť pocitu, že tu niečo nesedí. Z terapeutickej miestnosti sa tak nečakane presúva priamo na miesto činu a začína si všímať detaily, ktoré ostatným unikajú.
Po boku má svojho najlepšieho priateľa Pricharda, ktorý s nadšením experimentuje pri výrobe domácich nápojov, skvelého kuchára a človeka, ktorý sa dokáže spriateliť takmer s každým. V malej dedine sa taký talent môže hodiť.
Keď Pat a Prichard začnú nazerať pod tenkú škrupinu dedinskej idyly, postupne odhaľujú tajomstvá, ktoré mali zostať skryté. A čoskoro je jasné, že vrah sa možno celý čas pohybuje priamo medzi nimi.

Hrůza v domě na kopci
Dramatička Holly Sherwinová celá léta jen živořila, ale když obdržela grant na rozvoj své hry Čarodějnice z Edmontonu, konečně se přiblížila svému velkému průlomu. Potřebuje jen čas a prostor, aby svou vizi převedla ve skutečnost. Když během víkendového výletu na sever náhodou narazí na dům Hillových, majestátní, i když zanedbané gotické sídlo skoro skryté na okraji odlehlé vesnice, okamžitě ji zaujme. Je obrovské, staré a velice strašidelné – dokonalé pro rozvoj a zkoušení její hry.
Hollyina přítelkyně Nisa navzdory počáteční zdráhavosti souhlasí, že se k Holly připojí a sídlo si na dva týdny pronajmou. Zakrátko se v něm tak sejde skupina herců, které pronásledují jejich vlastní kostlivci z minulosti. Ovšem sotva se zabydlí, projeví se výstřednosti domu: po okolních pozemcích se potulují podivní tvorové, chodbami se nesou tajuplné zvuky a čas jako by nevysvětlitelně přeskakoval.
Holly a její přátelé se až příliš brzy znesváří nejen mezi sebou navzájem, nýbrž i se samotným domem. Zdá se totiž, že v domě Hillových něco všechna ta léta vyčkávalo a už to nechce zůstat samo…

The Baby Farm Murderer
A forensic study of the trial of Amelia Dyer, one of Britain’s most prolific serial killers, thought to have murdered up to 400 babies. This book explores how life in Victorian England created the ideal conditions for Amelia to establish herself as a baby farmer, taking infants from desperate women in exchange for payment.It examines what motivated her to kill and go on killing: her need for money versus her role as custodian in a cult that worshipped Lucifer and delves into her personal life, taking evidence from hundreds of contemporary trial and government records, memoirs and newspaper articles, and investigating what it was about society and policing in the late nineteenth-century that allowed her to get away with it for so long.The nineteenth century was a horrible time to be a woman in England. The lack of legal and effective birth control affected even the highest in the land. Queen Victoria, after having given birth to nine children, was advised by physicians for the sake of her health to have no more. Her diaries complain of ‘no more fun in bed’ as the only legal and safe way to avoid pregnancy was abstinence from sexual intercourse.It was against this backdrop that Amelia Dyer carried out her monstrous campaign. In 1856, she began advertising in local papers under assumed names and reassuring backgrounds, offering to adopt newborn babies in exchange for fees that varied according to the means of the mother. Her 40-year-long killing spree only ended with a local police force sting operation.
