Krv sa stane zábavou - limitovaná edícia
Mŕtve dievča v aute uprostred sídliska. Verdikt doktora Lengyela je jednoznačný - mladá, zdravá, pekná, len trochu mŕtva. Smrť spôsobil pervitín, jeden vpich do žily a život vyprchal. Problémy nastanú, keď detektívi z oddelenia vrážd o Vierke zistia, že nikdy nebrala drogy, nefajčila, pila len biele víno, aj to príležitostne. Obsah žalúdka a rozbor krvi hovoria niečo iné. Aj podozrivé zmiznutie jej frajera prispeje k tomu, že celý prípad sa hneď po prvých výsluchoch zahalí rúškom tajomstva. Neostáva nič iné, len vrátiť sa na začiatok a podľa zaužívaných pravidiel vyšetrovania rozpletať záhadu mŕtvej Vierky trpezlivo, krok za krokom. Prvé zistenia sú zaujímavé, jej vážna známosť Marek nie je len obyčajný elektrikár a o Vierku ako o dôležitú svedkyňu majú záujem aj iné zložky polície, bohužiaľ, neskoro. Ani Marekovi kamaráti, banda holohlavých chuligánov v bomberách a kanadách, nie sú mimo podozrenia, hoci navonok sa tvária ako stelesnená spravodlivosť a tvrdá ruka zákona zároveň, v skutočnosti majú ich nočné nájazdy väčšinou krvavý koniec. Chlapci zo stoštyridsaťjednotky sa neponáhľajú, vedia, že páchateľ je na blízku a nemá kam uniknúť. Keby tušili, čo sa chystá v piatok, pohli by si, zatkli by tých, ktorí si to zaslúžia, už vo štvrtok a život v Našom Meste by sa od toho zlomového osudného dňa uberal úplne iným smerom.

Saltwater Mansions
'Genre-bending, genius . . . A superb, intoxicating book'Telegraph'Deliciously twisty. I raced through it in one evening'The Times 'A proper read-it-in-one-go book, opening up an advent calendar of lives behind the doors of a block of flats' Adam Kay, author of This is Going to HurtMargate is in the grip of a heatwave when David Whitehouse stumbles across the mysterious story of a local woman who lived on the ground floor of Saltwater Mansions, a block of flats not far from the sea. On paper, Caroline Lane was unremarkable. She paid her mortgage every month. She always paid her bills. But nobody had seen or heard from her for 13 years, and no one had ever come looking. She had disappeared completely. David quickly becomes as fascinated by this missing woman as the residents of Saltwater Mansions, all of whom have their own theories to share, and their own unique stories to tell. As his obsession grows, David unearths vital clues that private detectives and amateur investigators alike have failed to spot. But the closer he gets to the truth, the clearer it becomes that this mystery was never meant to be solved, and that some stories don't want to be told. What if this one was never about Caroline Lane at all? From acclaimed and award-winning author David Whitehouse, Saltwater Mansions is an astonishing work of creative non-fiction blending reportage and memoir to explore the extraordinary hidden lives of ordinary people, the impact of grief, and the dangerous allure of taking true crime stories into our own hands.

Empire with a Vengeance
An absorbing new history of European colonialism, showing how ideas of retribution and revenge were used to justify violent conquest and rule. Today, the use of military force to punish enemies is strictly prohibited under international law. It is also a widely accepted principle that acts of vengeance and reprisal have almost no legitimate place in warfare. Throughout much of Western history, however, punishment and retaliation were not only important aspects of conflict, but were key justifications for waging war in the first place—particularly when it came to the defence of national honour. European empires were no exception to this rule. Throughout the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, two of the world’s most formidable powers, France and Britain, regularly framed wars of conquest and counterinsurgency using the language of justice and revenge. Whether to avenge alleged insults, punish perceived transgressions, or exact retribution for ‘crimes’ committed against the dignity and authority of Europeans, ‘honour’ was used as a legal, religious and moral rationale for violent expansion, consolidation and policing. Based on extensive archival research in multiple languages, Empire with a Vengeance is the first comparative examination of honour and revenge in colonial policy. Showing the central importance of these seemingly archaic concepts, it offers crucial insight into the brutal dynamics of empire’s ‘civilising mission’.
Depraved Desires
My monster isn't locked away anymore. He's free. And he's mine. Every wall I once built between us has been demolished, replaced by Ghost's merciless obsession. He isn't my convicted patient anymore. He's my shadow, my captor, and my addiction. Except it's not my fear he wants anymore. It's my total surrender. The deeper I fall into Ghost's world of vengeance and destruction, the more I see the truth: He doesn't just crave me. He wants to remake me in his image. And the most terrifying part? Somewhere in the darkness . . . I want it too. So, when I uncover the brutal truth about my parents' deaths, a fire ignites in me. Revenge. The killers thought they buried their sins with the bodies they left behind. They never expected me to unearth them. Now Ghost and I share a hunger that no justice system can contain. Together, we'll make them bleed. Or die trying. Depraved Desires is Book 2 in the Villains & Vices duet. It contains explicit sexual content and a morally gray hero that's over the top jealous/possessive, a stalker who falls first, has Touch Her & Die energy, and is willing to do whatever it takes to have her. A complete list of the trigger warnings can be found below. stalking/obsession, blackmail/coercion, breaking and entering, violence, murder, attempted rape (not by the hero), grief

Father Alberto and the Flying Girl
'Dark and strange and wonderful' MARK HADDON, author of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time'Hilarious, moving, and delightfully weird' JO HARKIN, author of The PretenderA bold, vivid and fiercely imaginative historical novel with an unforgettable narrator, exploring intolerance, kindness and what 'madness' really means. In a remote medieval parish, under the rule of a ruthless Abbess, hapless new priest Alberto is charged with guarding those deemed mad – and therefore godless. All ‘insane’ villagers are locked in the Abbey dungeons, released only for the riotous Feast of the Holy Fool. Alberto’s thankless task is to gather them again when the Feast ends – but as he comes to know them, he begins to question whether these so-called fools need saving at all. Only one always escapes him: the Flying Girl, a mysterious child who refuses to speak or be caught. As Alberto’s sympathy deepens into defiance the Abbess calls in the Inferrant Brethren: a brutal religious inquisition with whom Alberto has history... With pressure mounting, Alberto must decide where he stands. Protecting the vulnerable may cost him everything.
Rome's Age of Revolution
How did Christianity grow into an international faith that shaped the world as we know it?‘Remarkable … A joy to read’ JOSEPHINE QUINN, author of How the World Made the West‘Dazzling … Will change how you see Rome, and Christianity, for ever’ CATHERINE NIXEY, author of Heresy'One of the most important books on ancient history in many years’ HARRY SIDEBOTTOM, author of Warrior of RomeRome’s Age of Revolution corrects the triumphalist narrative that the Christian message was so persuasive, and indeed superior, that people converted in huge numbers, abandoning their pagan beliefs, thereby turning a small, persecuted sect into the state religion of the Roman Empire. Tim Whitmarsh shows that Christianity would never have succeeded if it had not taken advantage of the infrastructure and culture of the Roman Empire; in turn the new religion was indelibly shaped and transformed by Roman beliefs and ideas, especially those circulating in the Greek-speaking, or Hellenistic, eastern parts of the empire. This radical transformation, Tim argues, can only be described as a revolution. And the consequences are with us to this day. ‘Riveting – incisive and stylishly written’ EDITH HALL, author of Aristotle’s Way‘Fascinating and powerful throughout’ ANDREW PETTEGREE, author of The Book at War‘Refreshingly innovative … Remarkable’ CANDIDA MOSS, author of God’s Ghost-writers‘History writing at its very best’ BRUCE GORDON, author of The Bible

At its luminous core, however, this novel stands as a defiant celebration of women''s resilience, collective power, and the unbreakable bonds of sisterhood that sustain communities through generations.
A Deadly Marriage
THE NO. 1 BESTSELLERTHE SHOCKING TRUE CRIME THAT SHOCKED IRELANDFrom a producer of the Emmy-nominated Netflix documentary, A Deadly American Marriage‘Extraordinary and compelling’ Pat Kenny, Newstalk‘There is quite a twist in this’ Martin King, Ireland AMHow Molly Martens’ obsession with her stepchildren cost her husband Jason his life and legacy, from the producer of the Emmy-nominated Netflix documentary, A Deadly American MarriageWhen Limerick widower Jason Corbett hired a wholesome young American, Molly Martens, to care for his eighteen-month-old daughter and three and-a-half-year-old son, he could not have known that she was a troubled woman whose obsession with his children would end in his death. Three years after meeting, Jason and Molly married and settled in North Carolina. Four years later, Jason was beaten to death in their marital bedroom. Molly and her father, Tom, a former FBI agent, admitted to killing Jason but claimed self-defence. A Deadly Marriage reveals new information about this shocking case including the strange text Molly sent to Jason’s brother less than two hours after his death, how Jason told a friend he was planning to return to Ireland for good just two weeks before he died and Tom Martens’ pattern of cleaning up Molly’s mess. This is the story of how a wealthy and well-connected American family framed the victim as the aggressor in a horrific killing, blackened his name and served minimal jail time. Journalist Brian Carroll reported on the Martens’ court hearings for the Irish Times and is a co-producer of the Netflix documentary A Deadly American Marriage. He has thoroughly investigated the case, including conducting fresh reporting in North Carolina, to write the definitive account of a shattering story. ---‘Goes into the case in far more detail in a much more illuminating way’ Matt Cooper, Today FM‘Read this and you’ll get quite the education’ Elaine Crowley, Ireland AM
