Westerly


In an unforgettable saga of survival, motherhood, sisterhood, and the secrets that haunt us, one desperate decision creates a fault line that spans decades and threatens to break a family wide open. In 1946, two German sisters, child refugees in a program dubbed Operation Shamrock, arrive in Ireland to live in foster care while Europe recovers from war. Nearly fifty years later, on a fateful day in a bustling Maine farmhouse, an Irish newspaper clipping threatens to unravel Faye Sullivan’s carefully constructed life with husband William and daughters Maeve and Molly, a life already on the brink of collapse. When tragedy strikes and the Sullivans grapple with a cascade of buried secrets, Faye must confront the truth of a childhood summer in West Cork marked by adventure, heartbreak, and a life-altering decision that now jeopardizes everything she holds dear. And while their bonds may not be what they seemed, those bonds might be the one thing strong enough to help the broken Sullivan family navigate the truth and find their way forward together. From Germany to Ireland to coastal Maine, this tender family saga explores identity, reconciliation, and the true meaning of home.

The Dallas Way


Uncovers the untold story of LGBT activists in the American South as they navigated faith and politicsFor more than forty years, historians have researched the formation of gay communities and activism in the United States. Yet, the vast majority of scholarship on gay activism in the United States focuses on liberal urban areas like San Francisco, New York City, and Chicago, as opposed to conservative regions. In The Dallas Way, M. Rhys Dotson examines the development and impact of Dallas's queer community throughout the twentieth century. The book explores the unique challenges and values that impacted queer residents' experiences in conservative regions, from the interplay of traditional family structures, to religious values, and skepticism of rapid social change. Responding to these circumstances, Dotson highlights how early gay activists adopted a nuanced form of activism that both challenged and aligned with their city's conservative values, forging a distinctive path to equality through their own "Dallas Way." Moreover, the book illustrates how activists utilized strategies that complemented existing social and political structures in Dallas to further their advocacy for collective equality. From the formation of the state's first homophile organization, the Circle of Friends, in 1966, to the establishments of a gay-affirming church and the Dallas Gay Political Caucus in the 1970s, the book showcases the way Dallas' queer activism used religious communities and political activism to foster community and circumvent law enforcement raids. Offering a fresh perspective on the history of LGBT activism in the United States, The Dallas Way displays the unique strategies Southern gay activists leveraged to effect meaningful change and equality in Dallas.

'Captivating' NAOMI NOVIK'A brilliant writer with an intriguing imagination' SANTA MONTEFIORE‘Rich, immersive and wonderfully escapist’ GUARDIAN____________Anne of Brittany was a child when her land was invaded, her castle besieged, and her royal father driven to his death. Now Brittany is occupied by her enemies, her treasury empty, and only one thing is lacking to complete her realm’s subjugation: she is required, on pain of the sword, to marry the King of France. But Anne cannot. She has promised her dead father that Brittany would never be conquered. Defiantly, she betroths herself in secret to France’s greatest enemy. But in a world where courts may spy on each other by magic, there is only one way to solemnize this illicit union.

She tells the French that she had gone there to hunt unicorns. It’s a ruse, a lie, a feint. But when, against all expectations, a unicorn does appear and a wounded stranger stumbles from the trees and falls at her feet, Anne is plunged into a world of enchantment where a doomed sovereign might find the power to change the destiny of her nation - or be lost in the mist for ever. ____________Readers are loving The Unicorn Hunters:‘One of my most anticipated books of 2026 and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT!’ 5-star reader review‘Absolutely enchanting’ 5-star reader review‘A magnificent fairy tale, and I loved it with all my heart!!!!’ 5-star reader review‘Truly unforgettable’ 5-star reader review‘Absolutely dazzling in plot and character and prose’ 5-star reader review‘This alchemy of history, fairy tale, romance, and setting that just blows me away’ 5-star reader review‘I was completely consumed’ 5-star reader review‘Full-body immersion into a world of danger, enchantment, heartbreak, and fierce, breathtaking courage’ 5-star reader review

The Hidden Seasons


THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO THE HIDDEN CLUES AND SIGNS OF NATURE IN THE TURNING OF THE YEARThe perfect gift for dad this Father's Day!'A brilliant guide to the signs and wonders of the natural world . . . the author's alertness and expertise are impressive, and he makes a beguiling and inspiring guide . . . wonderful.' - DAILY MAIL'Gooley preaches attention to patterns in nature like a sommelier describing wine.' - NEW YORK TIMES'Another triumph from our unsurpassed expert on how to read the signs of nature. Indeed, his best book yet, which is saying something!' - John Lewis-Stempel, author of MEADOWLAND'A book to savour month by month as the seasons turn. Loved it!' - Lara Maiklem, author of MUDLARKING 'The Sherlock Holmes of Nature' - BBC Radio------When we know what to look for and what it means, seasonal moments that were once hidden shine brightly. In The Hidden Seasons, Tristan Gooley shows us how to read the clues that the sun, moon, stars, plants, fungi, animals, water and weather give us - but that we continually miss, because we don't know how and where to look. Autumn is a time for reading leaves, deciphering scents and investigating fungi. Spring is the time of wildflower signs, unique cloud shapes and curious animal behaviour. Summer is a time of coastal clues, astronomical extremes and secret grass patterns. And in winter, we learn to read snow, deepen our star knowledge and use rare methods to find clues in overlooked places, including indoors. As with Tristan Gooley's bestsellers The Walker's Guide, How to Read Water and How to Read a Tree, The Hidden Seasons inspires us to explore these signs for ourselves, giving us many rich insights into our turning year. Soon we will be able to anticipate and celebrate daily changes that few notice, however surprising they may be. And the seasons will never look, sound or smell the same again.

White Power


Beginning in the colonial era and growing through the American Revolution and the Southern plantation system, slaveholders’ violent police regime continued after Emancipation, through Reconstruction, to today. Moving across time, space, and place, White Power uncovers how slaveholders created their own white supremacist police and government to deny Black people rights, power, and humanity. Legal historian Gautham Rao introduces us to laws that empowered white people to forcibly exercise their desired racial superiority over Black people, shows how they spread from the South throughout the nation, and traces the rebellions, fugitivity, activism, and legal systems that challenged them. Rao’s narrative includes slaveholders, lawmakers, and the Ku Klux Klan, dramatic escapes by runaway enslaved people, abolitionist activism in courtroom showdowns, and pitched battles between white paramilitaries and enslaved rebels. He offers a new interpretation of the history of policing in the US, centering the institution and legacy of slavery and speaking to the origins of today’s persistence of white vigilance, white supremacist militia groups, and white racist cops determined to maintain power over Black people by force. Equally determined, however, was Black Americans’ refusal to accept it.
