City of Others
Rivers of London meets A Master of Djinn in this warm-hearted, action-packed urban fantasy debut full of workplace found family, queer romance and supernatural creatures straight out of Southeast Asian lore.
In the sunny city of Singapore, the government takes care of everything - even the weird stuff.
Benjamin Toh is an overworked and underpaid middle manager in a government department tasked with keeping the supernatural population of Singapore happy and out of sight.
But when an entire housing estate glitches out of existence on what was meant to be a routine check-in, Ben has to scramble to keep things under control and stop the rest of the city from following in its wake. He may not have the budget or the bandwidth, but he has the best - if highly irregular - team to help him. Together, they'll traverse secret shadow markets, scale skyscrapers, and maybe even go to the stars, all so they can just do their goddamn job.
No one was Supposed to Die at this Wedding
The second in a witty, USA Today bestselling series following author Eleanor Dash as she goes from wedding guest to murder mystery investigator at her best friend’s wedding on Catalina Island.
Attending your best friend’s wedding should be a piece of (wedding) cake, but not for Eleanor Dash, bestselling author of the Vacation Mysteries series. Because murder seems to follow her every time she goes on vacation and is definitely her uninvited plus-one to the special occasion.
Emma Wood, Eleanor’s best friend since childhood, is starring in the movie adaptation of When in Rome, Eleanor’s first novel. Emma is also marrying Fred Winters, a major movie star and Emma’s co-star, who just happens to be playing Connor Smith, Eleanor’s ex and leading man of the series.
Filming wraps and they invite the whole cast and crew to their wedding at nearby Catalina Island. There may be a storm headed their way?because of course there is?but nothing will stop their nuptials . . . that is until Emma receives a note that says “Someone is going to die at the wedding.”
Eleanor is a professional at this point, and she’ll do everything she can to uncover the murderer so true love can prevail . . . before it’s too late for her and the rest of the storm-trapped wedding party.
A War of Wyverns
REBELLION HAPPENS IN THE SHADOWS
Vivien Featherswallow has uncovered the secret language of dragons. Now can she use it to end a war?
The extraordinary sequel to the instant #1 Sunday Times Bestseller, A Language of Dragons
Vivien Featherswallow has translated a secret language of dragons - sparking an all-out civil war, with dragons and humans fighting on both sides, in the process.
And after defeating Prime Minister Wyvernmire and escaping Bletchley Park, Vivien has become the reluctant face of the rebellion - and been labelled the most wanted criminal in Britain. But what good is a rebel who must remain in hiding, powerless to help her friends?
Unsure of her purpose, and torn with doubt about the life she thought she was meant to lead, Vivien travels to the remote Scottish Isles to find a mysterious, long-forgotten species of dragon - one which might hold the key to ending the war… forever.
An epic, sweeping, unputdownable fantasy, A War of Wyverns is the unmissable sequel to the instant #1 Sunday Times Bestseller, A Language of Dragons.

Päť žien. Päť kontinentov. Jedno veľké tajomstvo.
Druhá časť podmanivej ságy Dcéry kvetov vás tentoraz zavedie do drsnej, no očarujúcej krajiny ohňa a ľadu – na Island.
Soley má život, o akom mnohí len snívajú: úspešnú hudobnú kariéru, peniaze, slávu aj pohľadného partnera. Pod žiarou reflektorov je však čoraz osamelejšia. Po smrti starej mamy náhodou objaví obraz ženy, ktorá jej je až znepokojivo podobná. Kto bola táto záhadná postava a aké puto ich spája?
Pátranie po pravde ju zavedie až na Island, do krajiny gejzírov, koní, nekonečných letných dní a hlbokých tajomstiev. Tu, medzi drsnou prírodou a skutočnými emóciami, začne Soley postupne odkrývať príbeh ženy z minulosti.
Prelínaním minulosti a súčasnosti vzniká dojímavý príbeh o láske, sile žien a hľadaní vlastnej identity. Pomôže jej nádherná, no neľútostná islandská príroda a jej liečivé ticho nájsť pravdu o sebe?

Dokonalí neznámi
Aférka v meste lásky ju privedie na divokú jazdu plnú romantiky, nebezpečia a ilúzií.
Úspešná americká spisovateľka Olivia Rossiová nedokázala napísať ani slovo od tragédie, ktorá jej pred dvomi rokmi prevrátila život naruby. Prenasledovaná minulosťou prijme ponuku stráviť leto v Paríži, kde hľadá uzdravenie aj stratenú múzu. Namiesto toho však nachádza Jamesa, príťažlivého cudzinca, ktorý v nej vzbudí nečakanú túžbu.
Olivia a James si povedia len svoje krstné mená, ale žiadne osobné tajomstvá, kým sa ponárajú do vášnivého romániku. No čím viac času spolu trávia, tým viac si Olivia uvedomuje, že sa jej letná aférka mení na čosi hlbšie. A že ten tajomný muž, ktorému podľahla, vôbec nie je tým, za koho sa vydáva.

Bezohľadní súperi 3: Zradné radovánky
Niektoré výzvy nedokážeme odmietnuť
Montgomeryovci a Daviesovci uzatvárajú prímerie. Alebo nie.
Herriet Montgomeryová a Morgan Davies sa poznajú už od detstva. Vždy sa s radosťou doberali, kládli jeden druhému výzvy a prekážky. Keď sa s ňou o niekoľko rokov neskôr Morgan lúči pred odchodom do armádneho námorníctva, musí jej sľúbiť, že sa z vojny vráti. Ako odmenu mu Herriet dovolí trikrát ju pobozkať. Povzbudený Davies strávi dva roky na mori. Kvôli navigácii podľa nesprávnej mapy nepriatelia uväznia jeho a celú posádku na ostrove izolovanom od sveta. Morganovi sa napokon podarí vrátiť do Anglicka a bezhlavo sa túži pomstiť kartografovi so pseudonymom R. Crusoe. Rovnako sa teší na prvé vášnivé stretnutie s Herriet. Navyše ani nespresnila, kde na tele ju môže pobozkať. Zlomiť vzpierajúcu sa Montgomeryovú však nedokáže každý...

Hráč
Sara přijíždí na vysokoškolskou kolej, aby začala daleko od svého domova studovat vysněnou žurnalistiku. Chce udělat tlustou čáru za svojí minulostí, vyléčit si zlomené srdce a zapomenout na to, co jí u nich doma provedl jeden bezcitný kluk.
Christian Hale je studentem architektury na téže vysoké škole. Působí jako lehkomyslný floutek a jednoho dne se vsadí s kamarády, že Saru během dvou týdnů dostane do postele. Sara však jejich sázku náhodou zaslechne a rozhodne se začít s Christianem hrát hru.
Ani jeden z nich ale nepočítá s tím, že by se mohli doopravdy zamilovat. Sara cítí, že podruhé by ji zrada někoho, koho by si příliš pustila k tělu, dokázala úplně psychicky zničit. A také Christian skrývá jakési nevyřešené věci z minulosti. Čím víc času spolu ale ti dva tráví a čím blíže se poznávají, zdá se jim stále těžší udržet si toho druhého dál od těla.

What is Huncút? - (Anglicky)
At the beginning of the 20th century, approximately one in four Slovaks lived in the United States, mainly in the industrial areas of the Northeast. The book is a collection of stories about immigrants from Slovakia in the US and their efforts to establish their own towns.
What is Huncút? explores the stories of these remarkable settlements through historical reports while uncovering the background of the most significant wave of immigration from present-day Slovakia to the United States.
The author, Milan Čupka, was inspired by his own family history – namely his great-grandfather's mysterious trip to Pittsburgh in 1907, which led to the departure of other relatives who are now scattered from Maryland, through Pennsylvania and Colorado, to Nevada. The author was driven by a desire to understand when Slovaks began emigrating to the US, what they experienced there, and what traces remained after this huge wave of emigration.
You will learn:
• who the first Slovaks in the US were,
• how difficult the journey by ship was in the 19th century,
• why most of them settled in industrial cities, but some decided to go South and West to pursue their dreams of becoming settlers.
What is Huncút? will give you a new perspective on your Slovak roots.

Lazarus Man
'An engrossing read' Mail on Sunday'An atmospheric novel with the trappings of crime fiction' Spectator'Both a hymn to community, and a love letter to the city' The i paperIn this electrifying novel, Richard Price, the author of Clockers and a writer on The Wire, gives us razor-sharp anatomy of an ever-changing Harlem. Harlem, 2008. In an instant, a five-story tenement collapses into a fuming hill of rubble, crushing the cars parked in front and coating the street with a thick layer of ash. As the city's rescue services and media outlets respond, the surrounding neighbourhood descends into chaos. At day's end, six bodies are recovered, and many more tenants are still missing. Anthony Carter--whose miraculous survival, after being buried for days beneath tons of brick and stone, transforms him into a man with a message and a passionate sense of mission. Felix Pearl--a young transplant to the city, whose photography and film work that day provokes in this previously unformed soul a sharp sense of personal destiny. Royal Davis--owner of a failing Harlem funeral home, whose desperate trolling of the scene for potential "customers" triggers a quest to find another path in life. And Mary Roe--a veteran city detective who, driven in part by her own family's brutal history, becomes obsessed with finding Christopher Diaz, one of the building's missing. Powerful and gripping, Lazarus Man depicts intertwining portraits of a group of compelling characters whose lives are permanently impacted by the disaster, from one of the greatest chroniclers of life in urban America.

The Hill in the Dark Grove
Exquisitely written and impossible to put down, The Hill in the Dark Grove is a haunting and sinister story embedded in Welsh folklore. Moving and chilling in equal measure, it is about a lost way of life and the terrifying lengths we go to to protect what we know.
Carwyn and Rhian - the last in a long family line of sheep farmers - are living out a brutal year in their hillside farm, deep in the mountains of Eryri, North Wales.
When Carwyn stumbles across a stone circle in one of the fields on their land, his curiosity quickly descends into obsession. His wife, Rhian, meanwhile, is confronted with the growing realization that the man with whom she shares her life and home is becoming a frightening stranger.
As the harsh winter closes in, Rhian finds herself alone with her increasingly peculiar husband, the mountains and the looming megalithic stones . . .
It's Different This Time
June Wood has nothing left to lose.
With her hit TV show cancelled, and no acting jobs lined up, being lured back to New York by a mysterious email was easy. Thanks to a clause in her former landlord's will, June and her old roommate, Adam Harper, now own the multimillion-dollar property-or they will in a month, once the paperwork is signed.
June and Adam are stuck together for four weeks. Which would be fine, if it wasn't for the fact that they haven't spoken in five years. But this is the opportunity of a lifetime, and once it's over, she can return to LA and forget all about Adam, New York and everything that went wrong in their friendship.
Through shared meals and late-night conversations, old wounds and long-buried sparks resurface. It soon becomes strikingly clear that June and Adam have unfinished business. Second chances are always a risk, but maybe, if they are finally honest with each other and themselves, it could be different this time.
