Stone and Sky
'This isn't London. The rules are different up here, and so are the allegiances.'
Detective Sergeant Peter Grant takes a much-needed holiday up in Scotland. And he'll need one when this is over...
If more's the merrier, then it's ecstatic as his partner Beverley, their young twins, his mum, dad, his dad's band and their dodgy manager all tag along. Even his boss, DCI Thomas Nightingale, takes in the coastal airs as he trains Peter's cousin Abigail in the arcane arts.
And they'll need them too, because Scotland's Granite City has more than its fair share of history and mystery, myth ... and murder.
When a body is found in a bus stop, fresh from the sea, the case smells fishy from the off.
Something may be stirring beyond the bay - but there's something far stranger in the sky...

Braving The Storm
I’m not supposed to feel this way…
To my family, I’m only useful for one thing: my surname. I’m Briar Lane. My father’s chess piece. A pawn to be traded.
But all it took was a dirty secret stuffed in a jacket pocket to unravel my world and send me running to the one place I knew they would never find me: Crimson Ridge.
I thought I’d be starting over alone. I never expected to find my father’s adopted brother, the ex-pro bull rider who consumes my space, and now, my every thought with it… Stôrmand Lane.
All it took was one misunderstanding to change everything.
I’m not supposed to know what those tattooed hands feel like, to feel butterflies anytime that pair of piercing blue eyes meet mine.
He might be my every fantasy, but he’s a temptation I have to ignore. Long nights spent in this tiny cabin can’t be the excuse to step into forbidden territory.
Or can they?

Colour Unbound: Henri Matisse 1941–1954
1941 marked a turning point in the life and work of Henri Matisse. At the age of seventy-two, he underwent major surgery that left him physically fragile. Yet Matisse viewed this moment not as a setback but as an opportunity 'to make the greatest progress of my life'. From that point until his death in 1954, he entered one of the most inspired and productive periods of his career. During those years, he created some of his greatest masterpieces - from the Chapel of the Rosary in Vence to his luminous cut-out gouaches, including Jazz. Vibrant and full of life, his late work stands in striking contrast to his declining physical state: dynamic, immediate and universally accessible.
Published to accompany the major exhibition at the Grand Palais, this catalogue brilliantly captures this late burst of creative vitality. Elegantly designed and beautifully printed, it brings together superb full-page reproductions of Matisse's artworks alongside rarely seen photographs of his studio, taken by renowned photographers such as Adant, Capa, Carone, Cartier-Bresson, Sima and Maywald. This visual dialogue - enriched by expert commentary - offers a deeper understanding of Matisse's final years and vividly conveys the synergy between art and life.

Enter Kiyoshi Mitarai, the renowned sleuth. Surely if anyone can crack these cryptic murders it is him. But you have all the clues too - can you solve the mystery of the murders in the Crooked House before he does?

A Vast Horizon
A glorious fusion of history and art, A Vast Horizon tells the story of Pablo Picasso and his free-spirited friends, including Lee Miller and Man Ray, in the tumultuous years around the Second World War. ‘Excellent and revealing . . . at the end we feel their loss as if they had been our friends’ - Antony Penrose, Lee Miller Archives'At once intimate and expansive . . . a fascinating portrait' - Clare Mulley, author of Agent ZoLate summer 1937. Europe is inching towards war. In the South of France a group of friends picnic in a secluded clearing. The women have peeled down their dresses to their waists. A couple kiss playfully while the others look on, laughing. The moment is captured in Lee Miller's now-iconic image. Some of the friends are well known, others less so: the dancer Ady Fidelin, the poet Paul Éluard and his wife Nusch, the Surrealists Man Ray and Roland Penrose. They are spending the summer with fellow artists Dora Maar, Eileen Agar and Pablo Picasso.

Tracing their lives through their photographs, artworks, poems and letters, from the heady weeks of creativity, sex and collaboration of that Mediterranean summer through the tumultuous years that followed, it is the story of rebellious lives and the redemptive power of art.
