One London Day
One city, one day, and a battle of wills reaches boiling pointJoseph Severin, a respectable North London businessman, has a lucrative side job. He's doing the books, old school (because these days the only trail you can't trace is a paper one) for a rogue MI5 outfit, the Shadows, headed by psychopathic Sebastien. However, when the game is rumbled, Sebastien sends hitman Mr Phipps to kill Severin and get those books back. The spider web of collateral damage will be extensive, taking in Lottie, for whom Severin has developed a sudden, wild passion; Sonya, a Russian escort with a desperate deadline; and at MI5, the ambitious Ellerby, who has them all in her sights. It's the hottest summer in fifty years and in the shadows, a deadly domino effect is about to spill out into the harsh light of day. An earlier version of this book was published as One London Day by C.C. Humphreys, now expanded and revised 2026.

The Eyes of Gaza - A Diary of Resilience
In early October 2023, Plestia Alaqad was a recent graduate with dreams of becoming a journalist. By the end of that November, she would be internationally known as the 'Eyes of Gaza', moving millions with her social media posts depicting daily life in Gaza amid Israel's deadly invasion and bombardment.
Written as a series of diary extracts, The Eyes of Gaza relates the horrors of Plestia's experiences, while showcasing the indomitable spirit of the men, women and children of her community. From the heart of the turmoil, surrounded by falling bombs and widespread devastation, she captures their emotions; their gentle acts of quiet, necessary heroism; and the moments of unexpected tenderness and vulnerability amid the chaos.
Through the raw honesty and vulnerability of a normal twenty-one-year-old woman navigating a human tragedy, The Eyes of Gaza is a potent reminder of the horrors of violence and a powerful testament to the human spirit.
The Swell
Two sisters. A shipwreck. A story demanding to be told . . .
Iceland, 1910. In the middle of a severe storm two sisters - Freyja and Gudrún - rescue a mysterious, charismatic man from a shipwreck near their remote farm.
Sixty-five years later, a young woman - Sigga - is spending time with her grandmother when they learn a body has been discovered on a mountainside near Reykjavik, perfectly preserved in ice.
Moving between the turn of the 20th century and the 1970s as a dark mystery is unravelled, The Swell is a spellbinding, beautifully atmospheric read, rich in Icelandic myth.
The Mistake
He's a player in more ways than one . . .
College junior John Logan can get any girl he wants. For this hockey star, life is a parade of parties and hook-ups, but behind his killer grins and easygoing charm, he hides growing despair about the dead-end road he'll be forced to walk after graduation. A sexy encounter with freshman Grace Ivers is just the distraction he needs, but when a thoughtless mistake pushes her away, Logan plans to spend his final year proving to her that he's worth a second chance.
Now he's going to need to up his game . . .
After a less than stellar freshman year, Grace is back at Briar University, older, wiser, and so over the arrogant hockey player she nearly handed her V-card to. She's not a charity case, and she's not the quiet butterfly she was when they first hooked up. If Logan expects her to roll over and beg like all his other puck bunnies, he can think again. He wants her back? He'll have to work for it. This time around, she'll be the one in the driver's seat . . . and she plans on driving him wild.
The Score
This limited Collector's Edition printing will include a new hardcase design, printed edges, designed endpapers, and colored character art throughout of your fave OG hockey couple, Dean and Allie!
He knows how to score, on and off the ice . . .
Allie Hayes is in crisis mode. With graduation looming, she still doesn't have the first clue about what she's going to do after college. To make matters worse, she's nursing a broken heart thanks to the end of her longtime relationship. Wild rebound sex is definitely not the solution to her problems, but gorgeous hockey star Dean Di Laurentis is impossible to resist. Just once, though, because even if her future is uncertain, it sure as heck won't include the king of one-night stands.
It'll take more than flashy moves to win her over . . .
Dean always gets what he wants. Girls, grades, girls, recognition, girls . . . he's a ladies man, all right, and he's yet to meet a woman who's immune to his charms. Until Allie. For one night, the feisty blonde rocked his entire world - and now she wants to be friends? Nope. It's not over until he says it's over. Dean is in full-on pursuit, but when life-rocking changes strike, he starts to wonder if maybe it's time to stop focusing on scoring . . . and shoot for love.
Ticho plné vichru
Jeanne Duvalová – žena, milenka, herečka, tanečnice a především múza básníka Charlese Baudelaira – je v dějinách literatury často redukovaná na exotický symbol básníkova opia, na tělo, které inspirovalo, ale nikdy nemluvilo. V románu Ticho plné vichru ale vstupuje do příběhu z jiné strany. Už není jen ozdobou Baudelairových Květů zla, ale ženou z masa a kostí, unavenou Paříží i mužem, který ji kdysi zbožňoval a pak opustil. Po letech strávených v jeho stínu zůstává sama – v proměňující se Paříži devatenáctého století, v těle poznamenaném nemocí, v čase, který se krátí. Když jí lékař oznámí smrtelnou diagnózu, rozhodne se naposledy zvednout hlavu, usednout na kolo – svůj symbol svobody – a vydat se na cestu z hluku města do ticha krajiny, od slávy k zapomnění. Cesta se stává její vzpourou proti bolesti, osudu i světu, který ji chtěl vidět jen jako „Baudelairovu černošku“. Baudelaire se v příběhu vrací jako neviditelný druhý hlas – muž, který se nedokáže vymanit z vlivu despotické matky a není schopen empatie: z Jeanne si učinil obraz, a tím ji nakonec ztratil. V ozvěnách jeho veršů se zrcadlí vše, co jejich vztah obsahoval: vášeň, opium, rozklad, něhu i destrukci. Jeanne se však učí hledět jinak – na svět, na muže, i na sebe samu.
Ticho plné vichru je intimní, lyrický román o ženě, která se vzpírá vlastní legendě. O těle, jež se mění v prach, o duši, která chce naposledy dýchat. O tom, že i múza může mít poslední slovo – a že i smrt může být formou svobody.

Praotec Róde a nápoj bojov Surima
Komiks na motívy staroslovanských mýtov a legiend
Pratec Rode a nápoj bohov Surima je komiks, ktorý otvára bránu do sveta, kde sa staré slovanské mýty znovu nadýchli života. V centre príbehu stojí Rode — najstarší z bohov a jeho traja synovia, Svarog, Veles a Perún. Keď sa stratí posvätný nápoj Surima, zdroj nesmrtelnosti, začína sa dobrodružstvo, ktoré presahuje hranice času aj ľudského sveta. Tento komiks nie je len fantazijným príbehom. Je to návrat k našim koreňom, k mytológii, ktorá bola stáročia potláčaná, zabúdaná alebo prekrývaná cudzími vrstvami. V príbehu sa prelína humor, napätie aj jemná mystika. Postavy putujú cez svet ľudí, aj svet bohov, pričom každá z týchto rovín odhaľuje ďalší kúsok zabudnutej slovanskej kozmológie. Nápoj Surima sa stáva symbolom poznania, ktoré musíme znovu objaviť, ak chceme pochopiť, kto sme. Komiks je vytvorený moderným vizuálnym jazykom, no jeho srdce bije v rytme starých piesní a rozprávok. Je určený všetkým, ktorí cítia, že v slovanskej mytológii je ukrytá sila, krása a múdrosť, ktorú dnešný svet opäť potrebuje.

Pupek světa a slinivka břišní
Po knize pražských básní Kostel pro kuřáky vydává Sylva Fischerová knihu pražských povídek. Motto Ivana Diviše:
Je to zem uzamklá ne snad na deset západů,
ale ta, která nemíní komunikovat
v domnění, že je pupkem světa.
Ale ona není pupkem, je jeho slinivkou břišní,
orgánem, na který lépe nesahat.
platí podle ní nejen pro celou zemi, ale i pro její metropoli.
Čteme tu pražské obrazy i příběhy – ty ikonické, jako v povídce Lego Staroměstského náměstí, i ty méně ikonické, jako je firemní večírek na parníku na Vltavě, celá Velká Praha (včetně Zbraslavi a Točné), je tu ale i scénka z pražského literárního života stejně jako minulé životy v podání pražské kadeřnice anebo snaha zodpovědět obligátní otázku: kde vlastně končí Žižkov a začínají Vinohrady. Natrefíme i na traktát o trhlinách, a jedné z postav se v noci zdá o modré čočce… Není to místy lehké čtení – protože tahle matička má drápy. A její obyvatelé taky.
Pro povídky jsou příznačné rozmanité narativní strategie, s cílem představit Prahu a proměny jejího genia loci ve dvacátém a jednadvacátém století z různých, navzájem odlišných úhlů pohledu.
„Jenom podle našeho pojetí času tomu říkáme Poslední soud, vlastně je to stanné právo. To je přece jasné, vám i mně. Stejně tak zlu nemůžeme splácet po částech – není část tam, kde je jenom celek – a stejně to pořád zkoušíme. Jako hlupáci si myslíme, že před zlem můžeme mít tajnosti,“ vysvětluje Kafka Einsteinovi. „A víte vůbec, že v naší synagoze žije zvíře, které vypadá jako kuna?“ „Nevím, protože do synagogy nechodím,“ odpoví Einstein. Když jsem z okna vlaku uviděla na budově nádraží nápis PRAHA-ŠTĚNICE, okamžitě jsem vystoupila, i když jsem měla původně namířeno jinam. Wosud je železny knjez.
Silent Catastrophes
From acclaimed critic, novelist and academic W. G. Sebald, author of Austerlitz and The Rings of Saturn, a collection of essay on the Austrian writers who inspired him
Appearing for the first time in English, Silent Catastrophes brings together W. G. Sebald's essays on the Austrian writers who meant so much to him.
The evolution of Austria from vast empire to diminutive Alpine republic, followed by its annexation by Nazi Germany, had a profound traumatic impact on the literary output of the nation. Essays on the writings of Kafka, Handke, Bernhard and more, explore the concepts of 'home/land', 'borderland' and 'exile' with deep compassion and insight.
A revelation to Sebald's English-language readers, Silent Catastrophes traces many of the themes which animate Sebald's own work and illuminates how melancholy - the contemplation of disaster in progress - is itself a form of resistance.
The Vet's Daughter
'A small Gothic masterpiece . . . I have read it many times, and with every re-read I marvel again at its many qualities' SARAH WATERS'A wonderful and original novel' ALAN HOLLINGHURST'The strange off-beat talent of Barbara Comyns [whose] innocent eye observes with child-like simplicity the most fantastic or the most ominous occurrence' GRAHAM GREENE 'Quite simply, Comyns writes like no one else' MAGGIE O'FARRELLI comforted myself with the knowledge that at least I wasn't earthbound like most people. In a house full of screeching animals in Edwardian South London, Alice lives in the shadow of her domineering father. Longing to escape, she retreats ever deeper into a world of memories, fantasies and rapturous longings - until she discovers an extraordinary secret power of her own. But the strange events that unfold lead her, dressed in bridal white, to a scene of ecstatic triumph and disaster among the crowds on Clapham Common. Blackly funny and indelibly haunting, The Vet's Daughter combines shocking realism with a visionary edge. INTRODUCED BY JANE GARDAM

The Eskdale Episode
'As Rebecca Tope tells it, every rural idyll is blighted by underlying menace. Such is her writing skill, I'm inclined to believe her' Daily MailWith the approach of autumn, a heavily pregnant Simmy Brown is anticipating the imminent arrival of her new child and juggling the move of her florist business to Keswick. A bouquet order to be delivered to the beautiful but remote Eskdale is an awkward addition to Simmy's to-do list. There she encounters three generations of women - and the next day, one of them is brutally murdered. Drawn into the mystery, Simmy and her friends soon find themselves navigating eccentric artists and fractured families. As her new assistant Evie proves unexpectedly determined to try her hand at sleuthing, and tangled motives begin to surface, Simmy realises the truth is darker than anyone imagined - and closer. And time is running out, in more ways than one. 'A Rebecca Tope novel, be it one of her Lake District, Cotswold or West Country Mysteries is a guarantee of a complex, page turning plot that will keep the reader guessing until the last page. A thoroughly enjoyable read which I heartily recommend.' Mystery People
