Peace Makers
'Well-researched and enthralling, Peter Ricketts brings the wartime Foreign Office to life.’ – Tim Bouverie'The gripping story of how the men and women of the Foreign Office secured Britain's victory in the Second World War and created a new international order.' – Professor Helen McCarthy“A gripping account of British diplomacy during the Second World War, filled with high drama and moments of tension. Ricketts vividly brings to the fore some of the most fascinating figures in the history of the Foreign Office.”Dr Helen FryDiscover the untold story of the British diplomats who shaped WWII – and the peace that followed – in this vivid exploration of a transformative moment in modern history. While military exploits and Churchill’s leadership dominate history books, Peace Makers reveals how the men and women of the Foreign Office forged alliances, supported resistance movements, managed refugee crises and laid the groundwork for the post-war international order. From the rooftops of Whitehall during the Blitz to embassies under siege across Europe and Asia, diplomats and their families demonstrated extraordinary resilience and ingenuity. They evacuated civilians, backed resistance networks, gathered intelligence and waged battles of persuasion. Some endured years apart from home; others, like staff in Tokyo, survived internment. Figures such as Archibald Clark Kerr in Moscow and Sir Alexander Cadogan in London steered critical alliances and helped shape the world to come. Peace Makers also explores how the war transformed the Foreign Office itself, sweeping away the barriers that had kept women out of top jobs. Through vivid portraits of pioneers like Freya Stark, Nancy Lambton and Elizabeth Wiskemann, you'll learn how women began to rise to senior diplomatic ranks. It also features the first published account from the only surviving member of the wartime Foreign Office, who shares her extraordinary story of travelling with Anthony Eden to the great wartime Summits. Peace Makers brings these stories together in a compelling narrative that blends fresh research with vivid storytelling. It offers a new lens on the war – one that highlights diplomacy as a frontline force and reveals how its legacy continues to shape our world. This is essential reading for anyone interested in history, international affairs or the human stories behind global change. ----------------------------------------------'A fascinating account of how the Foreign Office helped turned wartime victory into postwar peace.’ – Professor David Reynolds'Places the dedicated men and women in the British Foreign Office in the pantheon of WWIl heroes.’ – Rt Hon Andrew Mitchell'Who better than a former Permanent Secretary to take us on a riveting tour of the Foreign Office at war?’ – Professor Peter Hennessy'A fascinating account of the ingenuity and courage required of diplomats in wartime.' – Lord Hague

The Price of Pretty
From Sunday Times bestselling author Alex Light comes an empowering, incisive new book examining the crushing beauty standards women are subjected to – and how we can learn to fight back. In a world full of filters, tweakments, and weight-loss drugs, take back control and rewrite the rules of beauty on your own terms. Today’s unrelenting beauty standards tell women that our worth is conditional; that we aren’t good enough as we are. We fix and filter, tweak and tone, erasing ourselves to reach the ever-shifting goal of perfection. In The Price of Pretty, Sunday Times bestselling author and podcaster Alex Light investigates the forces behind today’s beauty dystopia. From the rise of new technologies and treatments framed as ‘self-care’ and the industries profiting from our insecurities, to the toxic messaging passed through generations, and how we can break the cycle. With lunchtime ‘tweakments’ on the high street, endless endorsements for weight-loss drugs, and inescapable AI images and filters, the pressure to be eternally youthful, naturally filtered and flawlessly sculpted has reached breaking point. And women are paying a high price: financially, physically, emotionally and mentally. Interrogating how we got here, Alex exposes the all-consuming cost of beauty and issues a clarion call for all of us to take control and fight back. Because here’s the truth: you were never the problem in the first place.

Pomsta nosí Pradu
Karma je... späť!
Zo snov a pracovných nádejí sa ľahko môže stať nočná mora... Andrea Sachsová o tom vie svoje. Pred desiatimi rokmi odišla z miesta asistentky Mirandy Priestlyovej v módnom časopise Runway, pre ktoré by milióny žien zabíjalo. Našťastie sa jej otvorili dvere k omnoho lepšej budúcnosti – s bývalou kolegyňou Emily založili luxusný svadobný časopis The Plunge, ktorý svojou populárnosťou môže rozhodne konkurovať aj samotnému Runwayu.
Všetko sa zdá byť konečne dokonalé – dokonca aj Andrein nový snúbenec –, kým sa k nej nedostane tajný list. Správa ju vráti do čias odsudzujúcich pohľadov, z ktorých sa jej podarilo utiecť. Alebo si aspoň myslela, že sa jej to podarilo. Andrea sa musí znova postaviť zoči-voči módnej diablici. Aj keď je staršia a skúsenejšia, jej bývalá šéfka ju určite šetriť nebude. Ale tento raz ani ona ju.

Ravenswood 3: Nikdy nezabudnem
Lady Jennifer Ardenová a Ben Ellis vedia, že manželský zväzok medzi nimi neprichádza do úvahy. Ich srdcia si to však túžobne želajú... Objavte nový dojímavý príbeh z pera kráľovnej historickej romance Mary Baloghovej, ktorým pokračuje úspešná regentská séria Ravenswood.
Lady Jennifer, sestra vojvodu Wilbyho, v detstve prekonala chorobu, ktorá spôsobila, že nemôže chodiť. Napriek tomu z nej vyrástla veselá, spoločenská mladá žena, obklopená veľkou milujúcou rodinou a množstvom priateľov. Tajne však sníva o tom, že raz bude vedieť chodiť či dokonca tancovať.
Keď sa Ben Ellis náhodne zoznámi s lady Jennifer a sleduje, ako sa pokúša kráčať, opierajúc sa o nepohodlné barly, ihneď vycíti jej túžobné želania. Je o ňom známe, že sa usiluje vyriešiť všetky praktické problémy, na ktoré natrafí. A tak si aj teraz zaumieni, že Jennifer pomôže objaviť nezávislosť a radosť z pohybu. Musí však byť opatrný, keďže je nemanželský syn nebohého grófa Strattona. Hoci vyrastal v grófovej rodine, vie, že do vysokej spoločnosti celkom nepatrí.
Jennifer Benove nápady spočiatku šokujú, no postupne im prichádza na chuť. Priateľstvo a rastúca vzájomná náklonnosť medzi mladými ľuďmi vyvolajú v oboch rodinách znepokojenie. Vojvodova sestra sa predsa nemôže vydať za grófovho ľavobočka. Ibaže niekedy si láska nájde cestu bez ohľadu na okolnosti...

Lordi bolesti
Říkali mi, že jsem špatná holka. Ale nikdo mě nepřipravil na to, co přijde teď. Killian, Rath a Tristian.
Tři jména, která mě jednoho odpoledne rozbila na kusy. Můj nevlastní bratr tehdy jen přihlížel. Smál se, zatímco mě jeho přátelé lámali. Utekla jsem. Jenže minulost tě vždycky dožene a teď mám stalkera, který je mnohem děsivější než tihle tři.
Strach, stud a naprosté zoufalství mě přivedlo na práh sídla Lordů na Forsyth University.
Z kluků s tajemstvím se stali vládci, kteří si podmanili všechno a všechny. Já se rozhodla pro šílený tah: vyhrát konkurz na jejich Lady.
Podepsala jsem smlouvu, která mě k nim připoutala. Teď jsem jejich majetkem, jejich trofejí, jejich hračkou. Úplně vydaná na milost jejich zvráceným pravidlům. Protože není nic, co by Lord miloval víc než absolutní kontrolu nad ženou, která si myslela, že může uniknout.
Vítej v jejich posteli, Story. Tady už tě nikdo neuslyší křičet... pokud ti to oni sami nedovolí.

Strata
Strata, tedy vrstvy. Román, v němž Terry Pratchett poprvé zkoumá myšlenku plochého světa – dávno předtím, než vznikla jeho slavná Zeměplocha. Nacházíme se prozatím v žánru science fiction, ale autor už s typickým kacířstvím a nadhledem přemítá o původu vesmíru, civilizací i samotné reality.
Na cestu za největším tajemstvím všech dob se vydává posádka složená ze tří bytostí různých ras, a jejich výprava je stejně dobrodružná jako podvratná. Pratchett zde spojuje humor, filozofii a nápady, které později dozrály v jeho nejslavnějších knihách. Po třiceti letech se tak českým čtenářům vrací pozoruhodný titul, který ukazuje autora na prahu jeho největších objevů.
