Manhattan Down
'Cordy's blend of heist, technology and geopolitical thriller is a riveting read' The Times‘Cordy back at his brilliant best and ripe for another Hollywood buy up' Daily Express'The plot is terrific, the writing punchy, the pace fast and the characters delightful' Literary Review_________On the anniversary eve of the 9/11 terror attack, New York swelters under a heat dome of record temperatures. Even the global leaders assembled at the UN HQ are forced to admit that the climate crisis has reached boiling point and the world’s time is running out. That same day, at precisely 5:25 p.m., everyone on Manhattan Island – every man, woman and child, including all the world leaders at the UN – falls unconscious. Everyone that is, except for Samantha Rossi, a single mother reeling from devastating personal news and Nick Lockwood, a wounded NYPD detective who wakes from a coma just as the City That Never Sleeps falls into one. Manhattan Down is a pulse-pounding contemporary thriller which dares to imagine the unimaginable. The questions it asks are terrifying – and so are some of the answers.
Broken Republik
For many years, the post-war recovery of Germany was an inspirational story. Companies like Mercedes-Benz and Siemens became global titans, while the country's political leaders earned respect around the world. Even when the Berlin Wall fell, it initially seemed to reunify effortlessly.
But even at its peak, there were signs of trouble. So, when events started to turn against Germany, everything started to crumble. Volkswagen's emissions scandal damaged its industrial reputation, abandoning nuclear power left it reliant on Russia, and growing inequality boosted the far-right AfD.
Now updated for this edition, Broken Republik tells the compelling story of Germany's decline - where it all went wrong and how it could bounce back.
The Gravewood
IS IT LOVE . . . OR IS IT BLOODLUS? hea Parker has lived her entire life in the shadow of the Gravewood – a deadly forest that’s cut her town off from the world. With resources dwindling, she’s forced to ration her hearing aid batteries. When her stash runs out, she’ll be left in silence. Her only hope is Oliver Lysander, the volatile leader of the vampires who rule the Gravewood. Their deal is simple: she gives him her blood, he brings her batteries. No lines crossed. Nothing personal. Until Shea’s best friend is lured into the Gravewood, and her brother Asher Thorley returns from the frontlines, willing to expose Shea’s darkest secrets to get his sister back. Ever the opportunist, Lysander offers a new bargain: if Asher kills his vampire rival, he’ll help find the missing girl. And if Shea agrees to Turn, he’ll cure her ailing mother. But every deal pulls her closer to Lysander – and to becoming a monster herself. From New York Times bestselling author Kelly Andrew comes a vampire romance that explores disability, obsession and the twisted limits of loyalty.

Inherit the Truth
Told in her own words, this is the incredible true story of one young woman's survival of Auschwitz and Belsen because she happened to play the cello. With a new foreword by Philippe Sands. Although my head was shaved and I had a number on my arm, I had not lost my identity totally. I may no longer have had a name, but I was identifiable . I was 'the cellist'. When eighteen-year-old Anita arrived at Auschwitz, she found herself plucked from the Nazi death machine by a twist of fate: she played the cello, and the camp orchestra needed a cellist. Now the last living survivor of the Auschwitz Women's Orchestra, this is her story told in her own words. Like so many German Jewish schoolgirls, Anita had been busy with her studies and ambitions when her everyday life began to turn by degrees into one of unimaginable horror. School was cancelled, her parents were summoned for deportation, and when she and her sister, Renate, attempted to escape to France, they were arrested and imprisoned. Through her sharp-etched memories, alongside family letters, photos, and other historical documents, Inherit the Truth leads us into one of humanity's darkest chapters, where we are forced to confront the fragility of the line between civilisation and barbarity. Marking the eightieth anniversary of her arrival in the UK after her release from Belsen concentration camp, and with a new introduction by Philippe Sands, Anita's account of her and her sister's survival of both Auschwitz and Belsen is a testament to their remarkable courage, resilience, ingenuity and luck. Anita Lasker-Wallfisch's book Inherit the Truth: The Cellist of Auschwitz was a Sunday Times bestseller w/c 26-04-2026

Politics and Identities in Language Teaching and Learning
This volume examines the politics of language teaching and learning, providing a critical appraisal of the institutional, political and professional issues around language teaching and learning. It specifically focuses on how these issues have shaped recent provision at universities, using the UK as a case study, revealing consequences relevant for language departments around the world. By exploring the interface between language policies and strategies and the ways in which these impact the experiences of learning and teaching, this book highlights the complexities at play in language education at tertiary level. Like all the volumes in the Language Acts and Worldmaking series, the overall aim is two-fold: to challenge widely-held views about language learning as a neutral instrument of globalization and to innovate and transform language research, teaching and learning, together with Modern Languages as an academic discipline, by foregrounding its unique form of cognition and critical engagement. Specific aims are to: · propose new ways of bridging the gaps between those who teach and research languages and those who learn and use them in everyday contexts from the professional to the personal · put research into the hands of wider audiences · share a philosophy, policy and practice of language teaching and learning which turns research into action · provide the research, experience and data to enable informed debates on current issues and attitudes in language learning, teaching and research · share knowledge across and within all levels and experiences of language learning and teaching · showcase exciting new work that derives from different types of community activity and is of practical relevance to its audiences · disseminate new research in languages that engages with diverse communities of language practitioners.

Among the Ruins
The new atmospheric mystery from the author of the acclaimed Where They Lie, and a beautifully written tale about one woman’s need to find the truth, whatever the cost. Dublin, summer 1970. Nicoletta Sarto is juggling work as the women’s editor at the Irish Sentinel with two twin baby girls at home. When she’s approached by a barrister, Louise Leonard, whose aunt has just died, she’s drawn into a story that could have dangerous consequences. Was Helen Leonard murdered, as her niece thinks? And who was the mysterious nurse who has now vanished, but to whom Helen left everything?As Nicoletta investigates, she has to fight not only her own family’s disapproval of her being a working mother, but also society’s. And as she slowly unpicks the mystery of Helen Leonard’s death, she’s unaware that danger lurks around every corner… PRAISE FOR WHERE THEY LIE, SHORTLISTED FOR THE AN POST IRISH CRIME NOVEL OF THE YEAR:''A thrillingly dark and atmospheric tale, richly evocative of its time'' JOHN BANVILLE ''The mysteries surrounding Nicoletta intertwine grippingly with the mysteries within her, but what makes Where They Lie special is its keen awareness of Dublin''s layers of light and shadow. Coughlan digs deeply into the dark side, Ireland''s horrifying record around women and childbearing – but at the same time the book brings to life, in fine, tender, vivid detail, the rich atmosphere of 1960s Dublin'' TANA FRENCH ''Gripping and brilliantly atmospheric, and Nicoletta Sarto, the novel''s protagonist – the way she talks, the way she thinks – is a great invention'' RODDY DOYLE ''Atmospheric and absorbing, an ambitious young journalist finds herself at the heart of a corkscrew tale she never knew existed. A dark and turbulent journey to unexpected truths'' VAL McDERMID ''A dark, gorgeously written thriller, its tap root deep in a past so vividly evoked, you can see and smell and feel it'' NICCI FRENCH ''Atmospheric, authentic, and almost unbearably poignant. Like the best historical fiction, Where They Lie transports the reader back in time while holding up a mirror to the present. A must-read''?ERIN KELLY? ''Beautifully written, utterly absorbing. It''s hard to believe Coughlan wasn’t right there in 1960s Dublin observing the world she describes in such word-perfect detail. A stunning debut'' ANDREA MARA

Notebook
The story behind Notebook starts with a minor crime: the theft of Tom Cox's rucksack from a Bristol pub in 2018. In that rucksack was a journal containing ten months' worth of notes, one of the many Tom has used to record his thoughts and observations over the past twelve years. It wasn't the best he had ever kept – his handwriting was messier than in his previous notebook, his entries more sporadic – but he still grieved for every one of the hundred or so lost pages. This incident made Tom appreciate how much notebook-keeping means to him: the act of putting pen to paper has always led him to write with an unvarnished, spur-of-the-moment honesty that he wouldn’t achieve on-screen. Here, Tom has assembled his favourite stories, fragments, moments and ideas from those notebooks, ranging from memories of his childhood to the revelation that 'There are two types of people in the world. People who fucking love maps, and people who don't.' The result is a book redolent of the real stuff of life, shot through with Cox’s trademark warmth and wit.
Nászút Marokkóban
Egy nő, aki menekül a múltja elől.
Egy férfi, aki újra hinni tanul a szerelemben.
És egy utazás, amely örökre megváltoztatja az életüket.
Marie, a párizsi fordítónő Toszkána napfényes dombjai között talál rá arra a békére, amelyről azt hitte, örökre elveszítette. Roberto, a szőlőbirtok gazdája két gyermekével együtt, lassan visszavezeti őt az életbe és a szerelemhez.
De a történet itt nem ér véget.
Egy különleges nászút során együtt fedezik fel Marokkó varázslatos világát: a színekben vibráló bazárokat, a Magas-Atlasz hegyeit, a sivatag kapuját, az időtlen kasbahokat és az Atlanti-óceán fuvallatát. Minden nap új élmény, minden hely egy új fejezet – és minden pillanat közelebb viszi őket egymáshoz.
Ez a könyv nemcsak egy romantikus történet, hanem egy különleges útikönyv is Marokkó csodás vidékeire. Az olvasó Marie és Roberto nyomában járva fedezheti fel az ország legszebb tájait, városait és rejtett kincseit, miközben betekintést nyer a helyi kultúrába, a hagyományokba, és belekóstolhat a jellegzetes marokkói ízekbe.
A kaland azonban nemcsak tájakon, hanem szíveken át is vezet. A múlt sebei gyógyulni kezdenek, a család összekovácsolódik, és egy váratlan hír mindent új fénybe helyez.
Ez a regény a szerelemről, az újrakezdésről és az otthon megtalálásáról szól – bárhol is legyen az a világban.
Egy történet, amelyben az utazás nemcsak a világot, hanem a lelket is felfedezi.
Julie Sorell luxemburgi születésű művészettörténész, aki 46 évesen vált ismertté első regényével a Hajnal Toszkánában, melynek folytatása a Karácsony Velencében. Két gyermek édesanyja, és hosszú évek óta művészettörténetet és irodalmat tanít az Université du Luxembourg egyetemen. 2024-ben a hallgatók az év oktatójává választották. Mesterfokozatát a híres Bolognai Egyetemen szerezte, ahol különösen az itáliai reneszánsz művészet kutatásával foglalkozott. Diplomamunkáját a firenzei reneszánsz fénykoráról írta. Írói stílusát érzékenység, romantikus látásmód és gazdag kulturális háttér jellemzi. Regényei nemcsak romantikus történetek, de egyben hidat is képeznek a képzőművészet, a gasztronómia és az olasz életérzés között.
Tarot and the Psychology of the Soul
Tarot and the Psychology of the Soul is part classic guidebook, part provoking how-to, with a dash of stirring tarot philosophy. With a focus on inspiration and inclusivity for all tarot levels, it begins by establishing how we can view the cards as reflections of the psyche and walks readers through how to use the cards for inner work and shadow work. Though we turn to it for answers and solutions, the true power of the tarot is as a mirror. With the right approach, it reflects the tapestry of our psyches, illuminating both conscious will and unconscious longing. It teaches us to befriend our shadows, evoke our imaginations, and attune to the soul’s quiet directive: How am I meant to liv? ith a tone that is both scholarly and soulful, Mariana Louis guides tarotists—whether beginners or seasoned practitioners—through the archetypal approach. Alongside archetypal interpretations of the cards, she grounds readers in the foundations of depth psychology, inner work techniques, and methods of reading. The following topics are also covered:Psycho-spiritual meanings and approaches to the Major and Minor ArcanaA breakdown of how to apply all that the reader has learnedGuidance on how to prepare for readings and how the cards communicateMore than a manual for reading the cards, it is an initiation into their archetypal depth. Tarot and the Psychology of the Soul invites you to use the tarot as a living language of the psyche, helping you listen to your intuitive wisdom, embrace your wholeness, and awaken the answers waiting within.
