And after his reports of sightings of a never-recorded creature, Alexys can’t ignore the danger he might be in. Against all her instincts, she pushes deeper into the mountains to find him.Nic, Entity’s ambitious (and irritatingly charismatic) Director of Research & Cataloguing, refuses to let the chance to investigate an undocumented monster pass him by. And if joining the search means annoying his favourite work-nemesis, he’s already lacing his boots.But as Alexys and Nic descend into the ancient Appalachians, they begin to learn why some monsters stay unrecorded… and why no one should wander these mountains after dark.***Readers LOVE (Mostly) Human Resources: ‘With high stakes, creepy cryptids, a cute romance and a bespectacled love interest, (Mostly) Human Resources is an exceptionally fun read’ - NetGalley reviewer, 5*It’s like a treasure trove of monsters, mayhem and mystery.

To Be Young, Gifted and Black
What does it mean – and how does it feel – to grow up as a Black artist today?‘This exceptional book, written with a mother’s love for her seven creative children, sensitively offers profound and original insights and perspectives that enrich our culture. I feel so much wiser for reading it.’ Bernardine EvaristoWhen Kadiatu Kanneh-Mason’s eldest daughter, Isata, made her solo debut at the BBC Proms in 2023, she could not have been prouder.

All fractured when her younger daughter turned to her in tears a few days later, having read online abuse about her sister. Isata, it was declared, did not deserve to be there. How do you prepare your child for the fact that no matter their talent, technique or dedication, they will be told they do not belon? hrough conversations with her extraordinarily gifted family, Kanneh-Mason explores what it’s like to come of age in these turbulent times, when Black artistic self-expression is so often met with disparagement and abuse online – and offers a hopeful, powerful way through.
