The Shadow Sister
Following on from the bestselling The Seven Sisters and The Storm Sister, The Shadow Sister is the third book in Lucinda Riley’s spellbinding series of love and loss, inspired by the mythology of the Seven Sisters constellation. Star D’Apliese, in her late twenties, is at a crossroads in her life after the sudden death of her beloved father – the elusive billionaire, named Pa Salt by his six daughters, all adopted by him from the four corners of the world. He has left each of them a clue to their true heritage, but Star – the most enigmatic of the sisters – is hesitant to step out of the safety of the close relationship she shares with her sister CeCe. In desperation, she decides to follow the first clue she has been left, which leads her to an antiquarian bookshop in London, and the start of a whole new world . . . A hundred years earlier, headstrong and independent Flora MacNichol vows she will never marry. She is happy and secure in her home in the Lake District, living close to her idol, Beatrix Potter. But, when machinations outside of her control lead her to the London home of one of Edwardian society’s most notorious players, Flora is pulled between passionate love and duty to her family. But she finds herself a pawn in a game – the rules of which are only known to others – until a meeting with a mysterious gentleman unveils the answers that Flora has been searching for her whole life . . . As Star learns more of Flora’s incredible journey, she too goes on a voyage of discovery, finally stepping out of the shadow of her sister and opening herself up to the possibility of love. **The story will continue in Orlando . . .

Madame Bovary (Signature Editions)
Gustave Flaubert's classic novel of a bored French housewife who goes to great lengths to escape the staleness of provincial life, freshly repackaged for the Union Square & Co. Signature Editions line. Beautiful and bored, housewife Emma Bovary is trapped in her marriage to a mediocre doctor and stifled by the banality of provincial life. A passionate reader of romance novels, she seeks to escape her existence through spending lavishly on clothing and embarking on multiple affairs. But even something as seemingly exciting as committing adultery only brings her disappointment and devastating consequences for her husband and daughter. Flaubert's erotically charged and psychologically acute portrayal of Emma Bovary caused a moral outcry on its publication in 1857. It was deemed so lifelike that many women claimed they were the model for his heroine; but Flaubert insisted: "Madame Bovary, c'est moi."

The Patchwork Girl
They degraded her to the point where she'd become this sex thing - this thing that wasn't human, but an object - to the point where she believed that's what she was. The world of abuse and grooming gangs couldn't have seemed further away from Kate's start in life but, as so many young women now know, that matters little. As Sir Keir Starmer's national inquiry into grooming gangs begins, victims from across the country will share the stories of how they were targeted and their lives ruined. For Kate it was a situation that came out of the blue when, aged 18 and at college, her home life deteriorated and she found herself in supported housing for homeless teenagers in Telford. That's where she came into contact with an Asian gang who were grooming young girls for sex. One of the gang, who'd recently come out of prison, forced his way in and raped her before dragging her to a flat next door which the gang used for sex with underage girls, to publicly humiliate her in front of his friends. They threatened her with violence if she went to the police. It was the beginning of a cycle of serial and brutal abuse and rape that is almost impossible to imagine. She suffered mentally with PTSD being passed around between more than 70 men and taken to Morocco as a sex slave. Kate finally was able to report the abuse and some of the gang members were tried and sent to prison. Kate became a Mental Health Nurse in a secure unit in forensic mental health, which ironically includes working with sex offenders. She's become highly skilled in what she does, having an in-depth and first-hand knowledge of the thought processes of groomers.

Last Train to Memphis
The first volume of Peter Guralnick's critically acclaimed Elvis Presley biographies'Elvis steps from the pages. You can feel him breathe' BOB DYLAN'Wonderful' RODDY DOYLELast Train to Memphis is arguably the first serious biography that refuses to dwell on the myth of Elvis. Aiming instead to portray in vivid, dramatic terms the life and career of this outstanding artistic and cultural phenomenon, it draws together a plethora of documentary and interview material to create a superbly coherent and plausible narrative. This is the first of three volumes from music critic and author, Peter Guralnick, and covers Presley's stratospheric rise to stardom up to his departure for Germany in 1958. Last Train to Memphis is undoubtedly the benchmark by which other biographies of Elvis are judged. 'Soars above all other accounts of Elvis' GUARDIAN'A triumph of biographical art... profound and moving' NEW YORK TIMES

A Year with Gilbert White
'Uglow makes us feel the life beyond the facts.' GUARDIAN'Few can match Uglow's skill at conjuring up a scene, or illuminating a character.' SUNDAY TIMES'Charming . . . Like Radio 4's shipping forecast for naturalists.' Andrea Wulf, FINANCIAL TIMES'A glorious celebration of curiosity and nature.' OBSERVERA BOOK OF THE YEAR IN THE TIMES, THE SPECTATOR, FINANCIAL TIMES, OBSERVER AND NEW STATESMANIn 1781, Gilbert White was a humble country curate. He was also halfway to completing his path-breaking The Natural History of Selborne. No one had written like this before, with such close observation, humour, and sympathy. His spellbinding book has remained in print ever since, treasured by generations of readers. It would lead many to consider him 'the father of ecology'. Jenny Uglow illuminates this quirky, warm-hearted man. Tracing a single year of his daily fascination with the fauna, flora and people around him, she accompanies Gilbert from frost to summer drought, from the migration of birds to the sex lives of snails and the coming of harvest. Fresh, alive and original A Year with Gilbert White invites us to see the natural world anew, with astonishment and wonder. 'A feast of a book, it is beautifully illustrated and compulsively readable.'LITERARY REVIEW'The author brings her subject endearingly alive . . . [an] enriching book.' NATURE
The Green Hill
‘Remarkable. Will be a great comfort to those who need it’ Sarah PerryIn 2017, Sophie Pierce’s world changed forever when her twenty-year-old son Felix died suddenly and unexpectedly. Thrown into this new reality, she had to find a way to keep on living. By writing a series of letters to Felix – composed during walks and swims taken close to his burial place by the River Dart – Sophie gradually learned how to dwell in the landscape of sudden loss, navigating the weather and tides of grief. The Green Hill collects these letters alongside Sophie’s account of the years following Felix’s death, into which she weaves poignant memories of his life. What results is a deeply moving, beautifully captured record of how – amid the plants and rivers of Dartmoor, and in the sea off the South Devon coast – Sophie was able to hold on to and nurture her bond with Felix, both in her mind and through a physical engagement with the landscape: actively mourning, rather than grieving. The book is a celebration of the natural world and the role it plays in our lives and relationships, as well as examining how beauty, a sense of place and the passing seasons can help us contend with our own mortality. Above all, though, The Green Hill is one woman’s story of navigating through trauma and loss, and towards a fragile, complicated kind of joy.
