The Lowe Job
When Lili Lowe is caught in a compromising position with her boss, married politician Teddy Landen, she suddenly finds herself thrust into the centre of a media frenzy.
She turns, as most daughters would, to her mother. Yet Lydia Lowe is a former talent agent, and it's not long before the whole world knows the name Lili Lowe.
As the spotlight brightens on Lili, and her three sisters Stevie, Iris and Katie, the women's lives are changed in ways they could never have predicted.
And it's soon clear that fame, and fortune, comes with a price...
Perfect for fans of Margo's Got Money Troubles by Rufi Thorpe and Blue Sisters by Coco Mellors, Grace Alexander's sensational, page-turning and provocative book club debut explores the fallout of a jaw-dropping political scandal with deliciously dark humour and a lightness of touch.
Fieldwork as a Sex Object
I mute the audio. I replay the video four times.
It is not me. It is my fucking face.
Amrita Chaturvedi goes by Amy. Amy identifies as a communist on Twitter (her profile omits a stint on Big Brother and a billionaire daddy running the show at the High Court of Delhi).
Then reality hits: a deepfake porno of her forwarded around by WhatsApp aunties goes viral. On her birthday, Amy wakes to a stoning in the digital town square that could cancel the likes of Kim Kardashian.
Her executioners? A cartel of unhinged virgins styling themselves after V for Vendetta - except these keyboard warriors are on a ruthless crusade to wipe out desi jezebels and Make India Hindu Again.
A muscular, monumental work of internet literature in which the online turns offline turns bloody, Fieldwork as a Sex Object is not a novel you read but a novel that reads you: what are you prepared to risk for what you claim to believe?
Stronger Than You Think
In a world rocked by pandemics, climate change, and political unrest, resilience has never been more essential.
In this groundbreaking book, trauma researcher, survivor, and professor Sherry Hamby reveals the truth about resilience: struggling with trauma doesn't mean we lack it. Instead, it's a sign that we're facing life's challenges head-on. What we need to know is how to bounce back and prepare better for future hardships.
Drawing on years of research and lived experience, Hamby introduces the concept of the "resilience equation": by increasing our 'strengths dosage', we can offset our 'trauma dosage'. In other words, adding more positive experiences can help us heal from the negative ones. It's possible to thrive, even after significant trauma, and piece together a meaningful, fulfilled life.
This book empowers you with three core steps to cultivate resilience:
1. Find connection - through something larger than yourself
2. Master your emotions and behaviours - learn how to manage your impulses
3. Leverage your resources - tap into the support of family, friends, and community
From practices like mindfulness and forest bathing to deeper calls for social justice and activism, Stronger Than You Think equips you with tools to strengthen your own resilience and uplift others in the process. No matter what life throws your way, you'll learn how to face it with strength, hope, and purpose.

Alight with Hidden Glory
"The richness of [these] reflections will continue for a long time to be for us a source of blessing, of grace, of encounter with Jesus Christ." Pope Leo XIVAlight with Hidden Glory brings together the reflections preached by Bishop Erik Varden to Pope Leo XIV and the Roman Curia at the 2026 Lent retreat. Informed by Scripture and the liturgy, illumined by the insights of Bernard of Clairvaux, a man who helped shape medieval Europe, the book addresses questions of timeless relevance: What is the meaning of freedom? How can we speak well about truth? How do we respond when high ideals are compromised by human betrayal? Erik Varden reveals Lent not as deprivation but as a clarifying pilgrimage toward Christ’s ‘hidden glory’. This contemplative yet urgent work invites readers to walk the exodus path with renewed courage, vigilance, and hope.
Lack
'Cecilia Knapp beautifully captures the experience of contemporary womanhood in this lyrical and insightful novel. A genuine triumph' ELIZA CLARK 'Poignant to the bone. Lack is both masterfully, poetically complex and beautifully easy to read' GEMMA CAIRNEY In the quiet, lonely hours of the middle of the night, a woman scrolls social media on her phone. Babies are everywhere. All her friends seem to have one. But she is full of doubt – just the creep sniffing at the window. How can she consider the enormity of new life when the world outside is burning? Besides, there’s something wrong in her body. She can feel it: pain, a constant dull ache she is too frightened to investigate. And then there’s something darker, pulsing beneath the surface, threatening to catch up with her. Hers is a life deeply affected by grief and chaos; the death of her mother, a long buried sexual assault, and a drawn-out affair with a married actor of middling fame and maximum ego – full of glamour, hedonism, obsession and control. Is it possible to rebuild, when all you feel is lack? ––- 'A stunning poet and an equally gorgeous storyteller. I love everything Cecilia Knapp writes' HOLLIE MCNISH 'Cecilia Knapp is a great writer. I love her' KAE TEMPEST 'I really love Cecilia’s writing. It's sharp. Cuts to the quick. And offers my favourite thing, a real insight into the minds of women and all the things we don't often get to say out loud' SALMA EL-WARDANY 'As acute and relatable a portrait of modern life as a thirty-something woman as you wish for […] Utterly authentic' DAILY MAIL

BIG DUNC
*THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER*They don't make footballers - and football autobiographies - like this anymore. The brutally honest, riotously entertaining story of the much-loved Everton legend and iconic Premier League bad boy. 'A hell of a read. I couldn't recommend it more. Powerful' Gary Lineker‘Pure charisma’ The Times'A legend' Carlo Ancelotti‘One of life's good guys. Kind and generous. As you can imagine, I'd much rather him be a teammate than be an opponent. ' Alan Shearer____________________________________________________________________Praised by Wayne Rooney and Sir Alex Ferguson as one of the greatest and most passionate players to ever play the game, Duncan Ferguson, or Big Dunc as he is known, is larger than life in every sense. Measuring a towering 6 feet 4 inches in height, from the moment the striker emerged in British football in the 1990s, he was front and back page news. On the pitch, fans loved Duncan for his roguish charm, his thrilling goals and his total commitment in every game. Fighting tooth and nail, he was a born leader and took no prisoners. Like his rival Roy Keane, he played close to the limit, and often crossed it. Such as the time he was sentenced to 3 months in Glasgow’s toughest prison for headbutting an opponent – the first and only time a footballer has ever gone to jail for a crime committed on a football pitch. In BIG DUNC: The Upfront Autobiography, Duncan reveals, for the first time, the full story: the truth about his experiences in prison, his partying with African princes and Liverpool gangsters, his fighting with burglars, his making and losing a fortune, and how he turned his life around through his beloved Everton F.C.. In the process, the book sheds light on one of football’s most charismatic but notorious and enigmatic hardmen. He is a pillar of the community in Merseyside, giving back to stricken children who share a similar tough upbringing to his own. Duncan's book takes readers on a rollercoaster ride of humour, drama and redemption. Buckle up. ____________________________________________________________________________‘Duncan Ferguson is an iconic figure for Evertonians as a great number 9...Big Dunc loves the scousers & the scousers love him!’ Jamie Carragher‘Duncan is possibly the most misunderstood man in football. His football IQ and knowledge of the game is second to none, couple that with the person he is and you’ve got nothing but quality.’ Tony Bellew*A Sunday Times Bestseller, May 2025

A Brief History of Everyone Who Ever Lived
This is a story about you. It is the history of who you are and how you came to be. It is unique to you, as it is to each of the 100 billion modern humans who have ever drawn breath. But it is also our collective story, because in every one of our genomes we each carry the history of our species - births, deaths, disease, war, famine, migration and a lot of sex.
In this captivating journey through the expanding landscape of genetics, Adam Rutherford reveals what our genes now tell us about human history, and what history can now tell us about our genes. From Neanderthals to murder, from redheads to race, dead kings to plague, evolution to epigenetics, this is a demystifying and illuminating new portrait of who we are and how we came to be.
