Legend of Exorcism: Tianbao Fuyao Lu (Novel) Vol. 2
CRIMES OF PASSION
Although the Department of Exorcism has successfully thwarted the fox yao’s attempts to infiltrate the imperial examinations, Hongjun, Li Jinglong, and their companions are no closer to uncovering the identity of the yao king of Chang’an. Investigations stall until the group stumbles across a series of bloody murders in the capital.
What appears to be a gruesome coincidence soon points to a larger plot as Hongjun and Li Jinglong discover evidence of yao involvement. Yet as the clues pile up, the group fears their enemies’ goals go far beyond murder: They may have their sights set on the emperor himself. Hongjun and Li Jinglong’s growing bond is tested as the fate of the empire—and their very lives—are put on the line in the hunt for the mastermind lurking in the city’s shadows.
Births, Deaths and Marriages
From the author of the Sunday Times Number One Bestseller, The Versions of Us. A novel about six lifelong friends and one unforgettable year.
Zoe, Al, Rachel, Rob, Yas and Indie. Six friends who were inseparable at university, who have all had their secret or not so secret passions for each other, their hopes and fears.
Over the years, they have gone their separate ways. Rob is a history teacher, with a string of broken relationships behind him. Yas is a surgeon and very much her own woman. Indie is married and a successful coffee entrepreneur. Rachel is a stay at home mum with two children. Al, widowed young, is about to take over his father's funeral business.
When Rob's engagement party throws the gang together once more, some passions are reignited, old connections and resentments resurface. Over the next twelve months, there will, among the friends, be a birth, a marriage, and a death - but whose?
BIRTHS, DEATHS AND MARRIAGES is an era-spanning, globe-trotting novel about love, friendship, and how to stay at least relatively sane in an ever crazier world. It's about a group of friends growing older, the possibility of second chances, about kindness and joy. It's about births, deaths, marriages... and everything in between.

Their chance encounter blossoms into an unexpected alliance when the man's bravery saves the store from ruin, earning him not just a job but a place in the heart of the neighbourhood.
But just when things are looking up for Dokgo, Mrs. Yeom's troubled son, eager to sell the store, hires a detective to dig into the mysterious man's past and unearth what he seems to be trying so hard to forget . . .

V is for Venom
Fourteen stories. Fourteen more poisons. Just because it's fiction doesn't mean it's all made-up ...
Agatha Christie is renowned for her captivating plots and creative ways of killing off ill-fated victims. And what better way to add intrigue to a story than poison? The surreptitious ways they can be administered and the characteristic symptoms they produce make these killer chemicals the ideal method of murder in a 'whodunit'. Christie perfected the use of poisons in her plots; her deft and varied use of toxic substances is one of her great strengths as a writer. But how is it that some compounds prove so fatal, and in such tiny amounts?
The follow up to Kathryn Harkup's best-selling A is for Arsenic, V is for Venom is a compelling exploration of Christie's use of poisons and her extensive chemical knowledge. Featuring fourteen more poisons from the works of Agatha Christie, this book investigates the science behind the deadly substances, the history of their use in real-life murder cases, and how feasible was it to obtain, administer and detect these poisons in Christie's time and today. Combining Christie's murder mysteries, chemical science and true crime, V is for Venom is a celebration of the use of science by the undisputed Queen of Crime.

Pan Garcia
Byl nádherný, starší a tajemný.
Věděla jsem, že máme problém, hned jak se naše oči setkaly.
Seznámili jsme se v kavárně můj první den v práci.
Usmál se, já uvnitř roztála... pak ochutnal moji kávu a vyhodil ji.
Znovu, další den a další.
Tu kávu fakt nesnášel, a přesto se vracel.
Znala jsem jeho hru.
Říkal, že káva ode mě je smrt v hrnku.
Já jemu zas, že je dar ženám od Boha.
A nelhala jsem.
Pak jsme na sebe narazili mimo kavárnu – a tehdy to začalo být zajímavé.
Už to nebyl uhlazený gentleman s dokonalými způsoby.
Pan Garcia ukázal svou temnější stránku, jeho touhy byly dravé a nezkrotné.
Zažehl ve mně oheň.
Nemohli jsme si pomoct a bezhlavě se do sebe zamilovali.
Bylo to opojné.
Ale jeho démoni jsou temní, stejně jako ti moji.
Nevím, jestli to zvládneme, a vím, že mám jen dvě možnosti.
Odejít teď a zachránit se.
Nebo zůstat a doufat, že nás zachrání láska.
Volím druhou možnost.
