Afloat
'Prose that is precise and beautiful as northern light … this book is an absolute delight' MOYA CANNON Join David Gange on a seabound journey along Atlantic coasts and islands, exploring places and ways of life that have been built on small rowed or paddled boats. These small boats outnumber decked ships by at least fifty to one. Yet almost all history writing is about big boats. This is a strange misrepresentation of maritime history that this book seeks to put right. From Ireland and Shetland to the Faroes and across to Greenland, Newfoundland, the US and the Caribbean, Árdras is the story of eight journeys in search of ocean-going rowed and paddled boats. Gange, an award-winning historian, joins community pilgrimages to tiny islands on their saints’ days, and races and regattas that express revivals of commitment to local boats and the community ideals they sustained. Along the way he encounters whales, sharks and icebergs – as well as journeys beneath skies filled, from horizon to horizon, with tens of thousands of seabirds. Small traditional boats fulfil roles in their communities unlike any other supposedly inanimate things. Often treated as living members of the family, with minds and lives of their own, they’ve been essential to many cultures’ ways of living with the seascapes that surround them. This gorgeous and lyrical book offers not only a journey into the past, but a vision of how these ways of life might inform our futures.
Thrill!
Featuring a heart-warming and revealing introduction from Barbara Taylor Bradford! Don't miss this unputdownable sexy roller-coaster of a Thrill! ride! From chic New York and the exclusive Hamptons to the hungry heart of L.A., this high-suspense tale pulses with deadly obsessions and relentless desires in the seemingly perfect world of a gorgeous film actress. She can have any man she wants - but the one she can't resist is a mysterious lover with a shadowed past. As their jolting affair skyrockets with electric passion, shocking secrets break through their hidden traps - in a brilliantly twisting story that sparks with the explosive Jackie Collins touch. ‘Jackie was one of my favourite novelists. She wrote about Hollywood with total authenticity, breaking all the rules and taboos, her honesty refreshing’ BARBARA TAYLOR BRADFORD'Jackie Collins’s daring, unapologetic stroke of the pen, combined with her glorious wit, has single-handedly given creative license to new generations of authors and storytellers.' COLLEEN HOOVER There have been many imitators, but only ever one Jackie Collins. With millions of her books sold around the world, and thirty-one New York Times bestsellers, she is one of the world’s top-selling novelists. From glamorous Beverly Hills bedrooms to Hollywood movie studios; from glittering rock concerts to the yachts of billionaires, Jackie chronicled the scandalous lives of the rich, famous, and infamous from the inside looking out. 'A true inspiration, a trail blazer for women's fiction' JILLY COOPER ‘Jackie shows us all what being a strong, successful woman means at any age’ MILLY JOHNSON ‘Jackie will never be forgotten, she’ll always inspire me to #BeMoreJackie’ JILL MANSELL ‘Jackie’s heroines don’t take off their clothes to please a man, but to please themselves’ CLARE MACKINTOSH ‘Legend is a word used too lightly for so many undeserving people, but Jackie is the very definition of the word’ ALEX KHAN ‘What Jackie knew how to do so well, is to tell a thumping good story’ ROWAN COLEMAN ‘I read hundreds of books every year. But Jackie Collins’ novels are the only ones I can read over and over’ AMY ROWLAND ‘Jackie wrote with shameless ambition, ruthless passion and pure diamond-dusted sparkle’ CATHERINE STEADMAN ‘Here is a woman who not only wanted to entertain her readers, but also to teach them something; about the world and about themselves’ ISABELLE BROOM ‘Lessons galore on every page… about feminism, equality, tolerance and love’ CARMEL HARRINGTON ‘Jackie is the queen of cliff-hangers’ SAMANTHA TONGE ‘Nobody does it quite like Jackie and nobody ever will’ SARRA MANNING ‘Jackie bought a bit of glitter, sparkle and sunshine into our humdrum existence’ VERONICA HENRY ‘Collins was saying that women didn’t have to centre round men, either in books or in life’ JESSIE BURTON ‘What radiates from her novels, is a sense that women are capable of great things’ ALEXANDRA HEMINSLEY
The Tree Is Missing
A powerful debut compelled by questions of borders and displacement. In one story I stay in that city forever,in one I board, and in another I am still waiting. I am daybreak; I am everywhere. In The Tree Is Missing, Shannon Kuta Kelly explores the poetics of the border. The collection crosses through non-places, moving between the unnamed and unmapped spaces on the edges of the European city. With remarkable poise and restraint, these itinerant poems experiment with oral history and translation, traversing the borderlines of nation, language and time. They draw on folklore to evoke a world that feels current and present, but which can only be reached through storytelling. In doing so, Kuta Kelly explores the loss and displacement - the fracture of identity - necessitated by personal and political turmoil. She writes with a restless immediacy from within the histories that continue to shape us.

A Song I Wrote For Charlotte
Get ready to meet a truly one-of-a-kind heroine: Connie Moore.
Connie Moore has never failed at anything. That is until the Royal Academy of Music decide her piano playing isn’t good enough and she finds herself pursuing her back-up plan: moving into student halls to study English Literature. With her grandmother piling on the pressure and her father’s absence weighing on her, she knows she has to stay focused this year – mediocrity must be avoided at all costs.
Just across the corridor, Music Production student Charlotte Owen has other ideas. Sweet, sociable and not a girl who takes no for an answer, Charlotte drags Connie determinedly into university life. As an unlikely friendship blossoms between them, Connie begins to wonder if there’s something more to the way she feels about Charlotte – and, even more terrifyingly, whether there’s something more to the way Charlotte feels about her.
But Charlotte isn’t the kind of person you can hold on to forever. And Connie might have to consider whether the life that Charlotte has built for her is one that she can sustain alone.
Modlíme sa s Vincentom de Paul
„Štyri storočia po založení Misijnej spoločnosti niet pochýb o tom, že charizma svätého Vincenta de Paul naďalej obohacuje Cirkev prostredníctvom rôznych apoštolátov a dobrých skutkov celej Vincentínskej rodiny. Dúfam, že oslavy 400. výročia založenia zdôraznia význam koncepcie svätého Vincenta o službe Kristovi v chudobných pre obnovu Cirkvi našich čias, v misionárskom učeníctve a v pomoci núdznym a opusteným na mnohých perifériách nášho sveta a na okraji povrchnej kultúry typu „použi a zahoď'."
— pápež František
„Vincent de Paul na vlastnej koži pocítil silný kontrast medzi najbohatšími a najchudobnejšími. Ako kňaz mal totiž možnosť pohybovať sa v aristokratických kruhoch, na vidieku, ale aj na periférii Paríža 17. storočia. Poháňaný Kristovou láskou dokázal zorganizovať stabilné formy pomoci margina-lizovaným ľuďom a založil takzvané „Charités", teda skupiny žien, ktoré venovali svoj čas a majetok tým najbiednejším. Niektoré z týchto dobrovoľ-níčok sa rozhodli úplne zasvätiť Bohu a chudobným, a tak spolu so svätou Luisou de Marillac založil svätý Vincent „Dcéry kresťanskej lásky", prvú ženskú spoločnosť, ktorá žila zasvätenie „vo svete" - medzi ľuďmi, s chorými a núdznymi."
— pápež Benedikt XVI.
„Sv. Vincent bol muž činu. Ja v ňom ale vidím aj muža trpezlivosti, lebo dokázal trpezlivo čakať na svoju príležitosť. Chcel vždy plniť Božiu a nie svoju vôľu. Príklad našiel v Ježišovi Kristovi. Boh práve skrze neho vyjadruje trpezlivosť so svetom. A to si uvedomoval aj sv. Vincent. Preto aj v dnešných časoch nám je veľkým príkladom."
— P. Róbert Bednár, CM
„Svätý Vincent ma najviac oslovil svojou dobrotou voči všetkým ľuďom, s ktorými sa stretol. Nežil len pre seba, ale chcel sa rozdať bratom a sestrám v Kristovi. Je to niečo veľké, keďčlovek myslí na druhých a nie na seba."
— fr. Ján Zemanovič, CM

The Einstein Vendetta
*Longlisted for the CWA ALCS Gold Dagger for Non-Fiction 2026*From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Hanns and Rudolf and The House by the Lake comes a gripping true story of murder, war and injustice in Nazi-occupied Florence'I absolutely devoured The Einstein Vendetta' EDMUND DE WAAL'Thomas Harding is a researcher of the first rank' DAILY EXPRESS 'Harding evokes time and place beautifully, while paying forensic attention to detail. The result is a slow burn of cliff-hangers to keep the pages turning’ SPECTATOR'The Einstein Vendetta will tug at your heartstrings and prompt righteous outrage' TELEGRAPH------TUSCANY, 1944. German soldiers arrive at a villa on the outskirts of Florence to interrogate the cousin of the world's most famous scientist. Hours later, innocent civilians are dead and the troops have vanished. Weaving together first-hand testimony, unpublished material and original interviews, Thomas Harding tells a dramatic story of vengeance - and of one family's personal torment - as Nazi forces made a last brutal stand ahead of impending Allied liberation.
The Future Is Peace
Palestinian Aziz Abu Sarah and Israeli Maoz Inon are unlikely peacemakers, dedicated to finding a solution to the bitter war that has decimated historical, ancient land and ended family lines. Despite the losses they have suffered, the resolve of their friendship has taught them that strength and unity are more powerful than the violence of separation. Throughout their travels, they have been constantly asked: In the face of so much pain and suffering on both sides, when there have been so many lives lost and families shattered, how can they ever find hope? Their answer is always the same. One cannot find hope. We must create it.
In The Future Is Peace, Sarah and Inon take readers on their unforgettable weeklong journey across the holy land. They explore each other's personal and national histories in a land of competing narratives, amid the turbulent push and pull of near constant war, and the recent devastation that has rocked the world. Their mission is to explain the naivete in believing that more violence can bring security and prosperity to either people while in search of a true and lasting peace.
Pairing unapologetic candour and inspirational prose, Sarah and Inon are sending a message to humanity that the people have the power to make change. Peace is achievable, not just between the river and the sea, but throughout the world.

The Lost Voices of Pompeii
We all know how the people of Pompeii died. But what about how they lived?
In 24 hours, Pompeii will vanish.
The morning of the eruption was a day like any other. Julia Felix opens her tavern for another day of business, defying every convention that says a woman can't succeed alone. Petrinus, newly freed from slavery, wrestles with an impossible decision about his future. Politician Gaius Cuspius Pansa prepares to host the Plebian Games, a spectacle that will cement his power forever.
In 24 hours, seven lives will change forever.
Drawing on the latest archaeological discoveries, Dr Jess Venner brings the ancient streets to life through the eyes of those who lived, worked, loved and ultimately met their fate in Pompeii. Here is a community more complex, diverse and human than we ever imagined.
Pompeii is remembered for its destruction, but here we discover the vibrant lives that came before. Richly evocative and immersive, The Lost Voices of Pompeii vividly recreates the final twenty-four hours before the eruption, reminding us exactly what – and who – was lost in 79 AD.
This is the story of everything, and everyone, that was lost.
For anyone who has ever walked the ruins of Pompeii and wondered what lives beneath the ash, this is the book that answers that question.

Remember Me Tomorrow - Holnap is emlékezz rám
EGY ELTŰNT DIÁK. EGY REJTÉLYES NYOMOZÁS. EGY LASSAN KIBONTAKOZÓ SZERELEM.
Az East House a campus legrégebbi és legkevésbé népszerű kollégiuma, de az elsőéves, magányos Aleeza Kassam számára mégis vonzerővel bír: innen tűnt el öt hónappal korábban Jay Hoque, a sármos és zárkózott diák. Egy feltörekvő oknyomozó újságírónak, mint amilyen Aleeza, ez ellenállhatatlan rejtély.
Amikor azonban elkezd üzeneteket kapni Jaytől, a titok váratlan fordulatot vesz – ugyanis az üzenetek nemcsak Aleeza saját kollégiumi szobájából érkeznek, hanem egyenesen a múltból, mindössze hetekkel Jay eltűnése előttről.
Aleeza és Jay ugyanabban a térben – de más időben – megtapasztalják a lehetetlent, és együtt próbálják megakadályozni a fiú eltűnését. Egy időparadoxon, ami az univerzum pusztulásával fenyeget, olyan kockázat, amit vállalniuk kell.
Aleeza Jay gyanús barátai, ellenségei és exei nyomába ered, hogy kiderítse, mi történt a fiúval. Vagy mi fog történni. A helyzet azonban tovább bonyolódik, amikor Aleeza érzéseket kezd táplálni elbűvölő új lakótársa iránt – bárhol és bármikor is legyen ő…
„Mind a krimik, mind az időutazós történetek rajongóinak elnyeri a tetszését.” – The Book Decoder blog

Saying Yes
Twenty years of marriage. One life-altering question. Natalie Davis's brave and candid memoir chronicles the transformation of her traditional monogamous marriage into a vibrant polyamorous lifestyle. When her husband suggests they have sex with strangers, Natalie is incredulous. Yet, in the aftermath of his infidelity and while battling the voice in her head urging her to leave him, she agrees to try non-monogamy. What follows surprises no one more than Natalie—a soccer mom and lawyer—as she embarks on a daring journey down the rabbit hole of polyamory. Fearing for her livelihood and community standing, Natalie must keep her new lifestyle secret. She navigates complex relationships, including increasing clashes with her boyfriend's wife (her "metamour"), confronting a therapist who claims polyamory is abusive, and debating what to tell her family and friends. Along the way, she discovers her own bold sexuality, experiences the thrill of young lovers, finds empathy from her husband's experienced poly girlfriend, and learns to weather heartbreak and find bliss.Saying Yes offers an unvarnished look into Natalie's world, as she explores excitement, intimacy, and connection in unexpected places, including a few stairwells. With humor, heart, and raw honesty, this memoir is for anyone who has ever wondered what might happen if we say yes to what lies beyond conventional relationships.
