Joan MacKimmie épp Párizsba tart, hogy apácának álljon. Azonban döntését kevésbé a hit, sokkal inkább a félelem vezérli, ugyanis Joant titokzatos hangok kísértik, amik a jövőt vetítik előre, látomásai pedig a halálukon lévőket jelölik meg. A menedéket jelentő zárda megkímélheti ezektől a tapasztalásoktól… legalábbis ezért imádkozik. Kísérője Michael Murray, a fiatal özvegy lesz, aki, bár továbbra is gyászolja a feleségét, különös kötődést érez védence iránt. Amikor az időutazó Comte St. Germain megtudja, hogy Joan Párizsban tartózkodik, és hogy a lány kapcsolatban áll Claire Fraserrel – azaz La Dame Blanche-sal –, már nem csupán Joan élete forog kockán, hanem a lelke is, Murray pedig kénytelen a megmentésére sietni, hiszen a lány akaratlanul is rabul ejtette a szívét.

Delusions of Paradise
When Maiwand Banayee was 16, he wanted to become a suicide bomber for the Taliban. In this inspiring tale of survival and self-discovery, the reader will follow Maiwand's journey down a dark path and his ultimate redemption. Growing up in Kabul amid the Afghan wars, he witnessed atrocities that no child should ever see - rotting corpses, starving families, a neighbourhood torn apart. He escaped to a refugee camp in Pakistan, where religious militants began the gradual grooming of Maiwand and other Afghan boys. These confused and traumatised children were indoctrinated, radicalised and prepared to die in the name of a religious war. But Maiwand escaped this life. Fleeing Afghanistan, he had a life-altering crisis of faith, confidence and meaning, finding new purpose and rebuilding himself. Maiwand taught himself how to read and write in English, and here tells his astonishing story in crystalline prose. Delusions of Paradise offers a powerful warning about the dangers of radical religion, and is a stunning celebration of self-determination and redemption from an important new voice. AUTHOR: Maiwand Banayee was born in in Kabul at the onset of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. By the time he was twelve the country was engulfed in civil war and he fled to a refugee camp, where he enrolled in a madrassa and joined the Taliban. At 22 he rejected Islamic extremism and sought asylum in the UK, eventually living in Ireland before returning to England. He has been published in Stinging Fly and War, Literature & the Arts: An International Journal of the Humanities. This is his first book.

As Robbie pushes for answers, evidence vanishes, stories shift, and cases that should have nothing in common start to overlap. Soon he is drawn into a net of deceit that reaches far beyond the courtroom. And as it tightens, it’s clear events are being steered from the shadows. With his ex-cop father causing chaos, an old flame back in his life, and pressure mounting from every direction, Robbie is forced to make a call: protect himself or keep digging. Because this time, the truth isn’t just hard to prove—it’s dangerous to uncover. Sharp Practice is Book 3 in the Robbie Munro Legal Thriller series.

Mr Moonlight
The definitive biography of Brian Epstein – the man who made the Beatles – by leading Beatles biographer Philip Norman. Brian Epstein didn’t just manage the Beatles – he transformed them into the most famous band the world has ever known. A young record-shop owner from Liverpool, he took four relatively unknown musicians and set out to make them ‘bigger than Elvis’, changing pop music, celebrity and British culture forever. Only a few years older than John, Paul, George and Ringo, he called them ‘the Boys’, guiding, protecting and relentlessly believing in them as no one else did. Without Brian Epstein, there would have been no Beatles as we know them. Brian’s achievement in a profession in which he had no experience remains astonishing. A passionate devotee of classical music, he was nevertheless instrumental in shaping a new kind of pop that would revolutionise its sound, its business and Britain’s image around the world. Yet for all his achievements, he received no public honour – and scarcely any thanks. Drawing on a remarkable cache of exclusive interviews with those closest to him, Philip Norman delivers the most intimate and revealing portrait yet of this complex, conflicted and ultimately tragic figure. Mr Moonlight reveals the depths of Brian’s many trials and tribulations – how he almost lost the Beatles to organised crime; the antisemitism and homophobia he endured even at the height of his success; his intense and fraught relationship with John Lennon; and the haunting circumstances of his lonely death during the so-called Summer of Love. At once revelatory and deeply moving, Mr Moonlight restores Brian Epstein to his rightful place at the heart of the Beatles’ story.
