Guess Again


It was an unsolvable case. Now, the truth is coming out... and it will break apart everything they hold dear.Ten years ago, seventeen-year-old high school volleyball star Callie Jones vanished from her quiet Wisconsin lake community. A highly publicised search followed but her body was never found. The case went cold, but the echoes still linger. Ethan Hall, a former renegade detective turned ER doctor, left law enforcement to escape the horrors of the kid crime division. But on the tenth anniversary of Callie's disappearance, his former partner, Pete Kramer, makes a desperate request. Pete is the veteran detective who originally investigated the case. Now he's dying, and to ease his conscience and get closure for the Jones family, he needs Ethan to find out what happened to Callie, once and for all. Word soon spreads and everyone in the small town of Cherryview feels a rush of hope that answers will finally be found. Amid a sweltering heatwave, Ethan's investigation gains momentum, and soon he is drawn into a twisted psychological game. There is much more to the nightmare of Callie's disappearance than he imagined, including a connection with his own dark past... and secrets that are still worth killing for. An edge-of-your-seat thriller perfect for fans of Riley Sager, Stacy Willingham, and Karin Slaughter.

Unconditional


An intimate and moving collection of stories about women and their life-changing relationships with animals, told in vivid graphic novel style. In Unconditional, popular illustrator and writer Cat Willett explores the deep, sometimes transcendent relationship between women and their animal companions. The animals she’s shared her life with have pulled her through difficult times, accompanied her through growth and transition, and taught her a great deal about pain and loss. Using rich, full-color illustrations, she shares illuminating stories of different women and their pets, including: Terra and her parrot, Pooja, grieved together when Terra’s mother passed away from pancreatic cancer. Tuck and Liza, two cats adopted in Ukraine and Poland, helped Brianne cope with the challenge of waiting for her journalist husband to return from an assignment in a war zone. Hyesu adopted her dog, Dutch, from a shelter and found calm and support for her anxiety. Finn, Pam’s rabbit, helped her redefine the meaning of family while providing companionship and support living in a big city far from home. With these honest, pure retellings, as well as her own stories, Willett reveals the mutual bond that grows when animals are invited into our sphere and how meaningful those relationships can be.

Permanence


This is the story of an affair. Clara and Francis are in love, but nobody knows it. For months they have been slipping away from their respective lives, sharing stolen afternoons in hotel rooms, their time together painfully sweet and all too short. Until one day they wake up in a bedroom neither of them recognises with no memory of how they got there. They find themselves in a strange and unfamiliar city: a place where adulterers can live openly as couples, without fear of consequence, putting the theory of their love into practice. Here the sky is painted over the old town square in changeless, cloudless blue. Ripe fruits wait on the table each morning and the sunset comes down in a blaze of pink each night. And contact with the real world is impossible. As long as Clara and Francis are here, they only have each other. How do you know when you've found true love? How much would you sacrifice to keep hold of it? And how long can you stay in paradise before the cracks start to show?

Son of Nobody


The past is never done with: always the song continues Harlow Donne has devoted his life to the Classical world. When a chance comes up to study an obscure collection of papyrus fragments at Oxford University, he seizes it. Though it means leaving his daughter and fracturing marriage back home in Canada, this is the kind of career break he desperately needs. In the depths of the Bodleian Library, Harlow discovers a lost account of the Trojan War, a glimpse into the founding of Western civilization itself. He names the epic poem The Psoad, after its protagonist, a Greek commoner identified as Psoas of Midea but known to all as 'son of nobody'. As sole translator and interpreter of the Psoad, Harlow dedicates the poem and its footnotes to his daughter, Helen. Under his gaze, the text unlocks echoes of Ancient Greece into the present day, and a personal message to his beloved child appears. Despite the three-thousand-year gap between the two, a thread hasn't frayed: the universal song of homesickness and regret, of ambition, love and grief. In this masterpiece of myth, history and domesticity, Son of Nobody explores how stories become facts, the price we pay to share them and how we live - then, now and always.

Zrcadlo hospodaření


Kniha si klade za cíl nabídnout čtenáři jiný pohled na účetnictví než jen jako na nudný soubor pevných čísel. Účetnictví totiž ve skutečnosti bylo a stále je měnícím se mechanismem s pestrou škálou podob. Za tímto účelem není pozornost zaměřena jen na účetnictví ve smyslu vedení záznamů a jejich technické podoby. Jádrem zkoumání je spíše účetní myšlení, tedy způsoby, jakými byla skutečnost v různých dobách pojímána, tříděna a vykládána prostřednictvím hospodářských instrukcí, dobových příruček, učebnic, metodických pokynů či právních předpisů. Účetnictví je zde proto nahlíženo především jako odraz dobové představy o uspořádání a kontrole hospodářské reality, nikoli jen jako soubor formálních zápisů.
