All The Other Mothers Hate Me
Maybe having a few enemies on the school run means you're doing something right…
Florence knows all about failure. After a dismal end to her 2000s girlband career, she's moping around West London, single, broke and unfulfilled. The only things she's proud of are her increasingly elaborate nail art choices - and her ten-year-old son, Dylan.
But when Alfie Risby, Dylan's bitter class rival and the child heir to a frozen foods empire, mysteriously vanishes on a school trip, Dylan becomes a prime suspect. Florence has to get her act together, find the missing boy and clear her son's name or risk losing him forever. The only problem? She doesn't have any detective skills, she's not exactly popular at the school gates and she's just found Alfie's backpack hidden under Dylan's bed…
All the Other Mothers Hate Me is an irresistibly witty novel about fitting in, starting over and the lengths we'll go to for the people we love.

Ghost-Eye
Calcutta, September 1969
Varsha Gupta wants fish for her lunch. Her family can't understand it; the three-year-old has never tasted fish in her life. The Guptas are strict vegetarians and don't allow it inside their Calcutta mansion. But Varsha claims she can remember another life, a mud house by a river where she caught and cooked fish with a different mother.
Perplexed, the Guptas turn to Dr. Shoma Bose, a psychiatrist who has been investigating what are known as 'cases of the reincarnation type' for years. But her understanding of the world is changed forever by Varsha's revelations.
Half a century later, Varsha's therapeutic case file catches the attention of a group of environmental activists, and Shoma's nephew Dinu is drawn inexorably into their plans. And as Dinu finds himself caught up in the search for Varsha, buried memories of his own past begin to surface.
Travelling between late-sixties Calcutta and present-day Brooklyn, Ghost-Eye is an urgent and expansive novel about family, fate and our fragile planet.

Forever Forward
Few names in motorsports carry the same authority as McLaren and, although in recent years their performance hadn't living up to the legend, they have now returned to form in a spectacular way under the leadership of Zak Brown.
Going into 2023, Brown's team were the ninth quickest on the grid only to end it as arguably the second fastest, after a dramatic mid-season turnaround. It was only in 2024 that lead driver Lando Norris achieved his first ever Grand Prix win in Miami. The following year he became world champion.
Zak Brown took over a failing team from Ron Dennis in 2018, and his dynamic leadership style has seen astounding results. McLaren are on the rise again, looking to a future that will echo its haloed past, when James Hunt, Alain Prost, Niki Lauda, Ayrton Senna and Lewis Hamilton drove the team into the history books. Here they go again.
The McLaren motto is 'Forever Forward', and their story is all about the underdog taking on the big boys of F1. The author looks back at McLaren's origin story, as their heritage is such a big part of their identity, but his main mission is going behind the scenes to give us the inside track on the team's extraordinary resurgence under Brown, and their thrilling bid for victory.
While You Were Seething
Daisy Emmett has been enemies with famous romance author Caleb Miller since they were in college together, and time hasn't lessened their mutual loathing. So, when she agrees to maneuver him through a PR disaster of his own making, she knows it's not going to be easy. She just doesn't realise how not easy until they somehow end up trapped in the same truck, on an endless road trip from one book tour stop to another, bantering and butting heads along the way.
Then, even more horrifying: people appear to be mistaking her for the woman he dedicates all his books to. The love of his life, his adored beloved-the one who doesn't actually exist. Now they're trapped into pretending she does and that Daisy is her, each fake kiss and phony embrace ratcheting up the tension to the point where enemies suddenly seems a lot closer to lovers than either of them would like.
Or so they're telling themselves.
But sometimes it's hard to be sure, when seething turns into something so much more ...
On Thin Ice
They can't keep skating around their feelings...
When disgraced Hollywood star Luca Vasvault is partnered with drama-averse professional skater Matilda Stevens on Stars on Ice, the pair get off to a less-than-smooth start. Matilda’s dazzling smile and generous spirit immediately set Luca on edge (surely no one can be that nice?) while Luca’s standoffish and brooding behaviour is making Matilda’s job unnecessarily difficult.
Despite their tension behind the scenes, though, there’s no denying their chemistry on the ice. And since Matilda and Luca both need to win for their own reasons, they strike a deal: they’ll work together, playing up their “showmance”, to win the public’s love and better their chances of winning the competition.
After all, they’re both performers for a living. How hard can it be to pretend their feelings are real?

Radio silence - Rádiócsend
Mi van, ha minden, amit eddig hittünk magunkról, tévedés?
Frances mindig is tanulógép volt, egyetlen céllal maga előtt: bejutni egy elit egyetemre. Semmi sem állhatott az útjába. Sem a barátok, sem egy nyomasztó titok – még az sem, hogy ki ő valójában, a szíve mélyén.
Amikor Frances találkozik Aleddel, a kedvenc podcastjának zseniálisan tehetséges, de visszahúzódó alkotójával, egy teljesen új világot fedez fel. Aled megnyitja előtte az ajtót a valódi Frances felé, és a lány először tapasztalja meg, milyen az igazi barátság – amelyben félelem nélkül önmaga lehet.
Aztán a podcast hirtelen nagyon népszerűvé válik, és a barátok között kialakult törékeny bizalom darabokra hullik.
Frances a régi és az új énje közt reked. Az álmai összeomlanak. A bűntudat szorításában ráébred, hogy nincs más választása, szembe kell néznie a múltjával…
Be kell vallania, miért tűnt el régi barátja, Carys.
Közben az egyetemen Aled is magára marad, és sötét titkokkal küzd.
Csak a félelmeinkkel való szembenézés vezethet győzelemhez. És csak önmagunk felvállalásával találhatjuk meg a boldogságot.
Francesnek ehhez minden bátorságára szüksége lesz.
Lebilincselő ifjúsági regény, amely az önmagunk keresésének, az elvárásoknak és a választás szabadságának kérdéseit boncolgatja – a korosztály egyik legizgalmasabb írójának tollából
