A Case of Life and Limb
A WATERSTONES CRIME BOOK OF THE YEARA LITERARY REVIEW CRIME BOOK OF THE YEAR'As brilliant a cosy crime novel as you'll ever read' JANICE HALLETT'A masterful voice in the mystery world' S. J. BENNETTCHRISTMAS EVE, 1901. Gabriel Ward KC is hard at work on a thorny libel case involving London's most famous music hall star and its most notorious tabloid newspaper, but the Inner Temple remains as quiet and calm as ever. Quiet, that is, until the mummified hand arrives in the post... While the hand's recipient, Temple Treasurer Sir William Waring, is rightfully shaken, Gabriel is filled with curiosity. Who would want to send such a thing? And why? But as more parcels arrive - one with fatal consequences - Gabriel realises that it is not Sir William who is the target, but the Temple itself. Someone is holding a grudge that has led to at least one death. It is up to Gabriel, and Constable Wright of the City of London Police, to find out who before the body count gets any higher. The game's afoot…
The Age Code
From the rising incidence of cancer in the under-50s to increased infertility rates, there are signs everywhere that growing numbers of us are ageing too quickly. Why? Many believe there’s one major culprit: our diet.
Ageing reflects a fragile balance in our cells between damage and repair. Sugar, excess calories and gut inflammation are all common sources of damage, but if we instead fuel our body with valuable micronutrients, we can lower our disease risk and age markedly slower. Until recently this process was impossible to measure, but with new breakthroughs we can even assess the age of individual organs, giving rise to a new science of food that might save us.
Join Dr David Cox as he meets the experts attempting to understand what’s accelerating our biological clocks and what we can do about it. Along the way you’ll learn everything from why we become more acidic as we age, to why omega-3s are one of the most powerful anti-ageing supplements, to the simple adjustments to your cooking that will help you age better.
The Age Code urgently pinpoints why our eating habits must change and what we can all do to live longer and healthier lives.

But when Medea joins the ship, the sorceress awakens something in Atalanta that she cannot ignore - something more dangerous than she could ever have imagined.
As the ship sets sail, Medea and Atalanta will be forced to choose between the life they always wished for, and a love they secretly desire - but in a world ruled by men, it might just destroy them...
Anchored, Aligned, Accountable
What if the very moments that feel like setbacks could become openings for transformation?
Aiko Bethea teaches that what holds us back is not the challenge itself, but how we meet it. The tension at work. The misunderstanding at home. The silence in the face of discomfort. She calls these experiences 'the bullsh*t' because they keep us out of alignment with who we aspire to be.
But the bullsh*t is not the end of the story. It is the beginning of choice. Each moment of misalignment can shrink us back into old habits, or it can call us forward into a different way of leading, loving and living. With a witty, engaging voice, Bethea invites us to choose connection over competition, empathy over pity and vulnerability over ego, guiding us toward evolving into the version of ourselves we most respect. As she reminds us, 'bullsh*t can't be fought off, but it can be transcended.'
Through her Anchored, Aligned, Accountable framework, Bethea draws on real-life experiences from her work as a facilitator and leadership coach, offering journaling prompts and practical exercises to support readers' growth. In doing so, she shows us how to step into that transcendence. Grounded in truth. Connected to values. Committed to action that changes not just what we do but who we become.

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

Bulldozer - Buldózer - Szeretni nehéz 3
Amanda Shaw végre összeszedte magát.
Évek kemény munkája és rengeteg önfegyelem kellett hozzá, de végre ura az életének. New York-i jógastúdiója olyan sikeres lett, hogy most nyit egy újat az óceánparton, miközben kapcsolata tízéves fiával napról napra javul. Az utolsó dolog, amire szüksége van, hogy csavar kerüljön remekül működő életének gépezetébe.
Grant Hendricks pedig nem éppen apró csavar.
Négyszer választották az év legjobb védőjátékosának az NFL-ben, háromszor gyűjtötte be a legtöbb szerelést, és általánosságban véve ő minden idők egyik legjobb focistája, de ezúttal hivatalosan is elérte a mélypontot. Egy szörnyű gerincsérülés után lehet, hogy visszavonulásra kényszerül, és ez még annál is jobban megijeszti, mint az orvosok figyelmeztetése, hogy a következő ütközéstől akár le is bénulhat. Csak egy nyugodt helyre lenne szüksége, ahol átgondolhatja a dolgokat, és a csapattársa óceánparti háza tökéletes választásnak tűnik. A gondot csak az a nő jelenti, aki szintén ott lakik.
Engedd, hogy ez a történet legyűrje minden ellenállásodat!
Survival Show
ING FOR YOUR LIFE!
Welcome to the New Alliance – a reimagined world after a war and a flood. Taryn Beck and her family don’t have much, and her younger brother needs vital medication to survive. Medication they can’t access or afford. Taryn secretly enters Network G’s reality show: Starmaker, the most watched TV show in the world.
The rules are simple; young women from all over the globe compete to join an all-singing, all-dancing pop outfit, DOLLHOU5E. If you win, a life of luxury, stardom and wealth awaits . . . But there’s a catch. Eliminated contestants are literally eliminated; “volunteered” to Project Population, an initiative designed to cull the community.
Sequestered in the sinister Dreamhouse, and filmed 24 hours-a-day, Taryn soon realises that reality TV is far from real. She and her fellow trainees are pitted against each other in cruel challenges. Working with gorgeous boyband mentor, Cade, Taryn covertly plots to expose this brutal regime and destroy Starmaker from the inside.
Get ready for the performance of Taryn’s life.
Audition
One woman, the performance of a lifetime. Or two. An exhilarating, destabilising novel that asks whether we ever really know the people we love
Two people meet for lunch in a Manhattan restaurant. She’s an accomplished actress in rehearsals for an upcoming premiere. He’s attractive, troubling, young – young enough to be her son. Who is he to her, and who is she to him? In this compulsively readable, brilliantly constructed novel, two competing narratives unspool, rewriting our understanding of the roles we play every day – partner, parent, creator, muse – and the truths every performance masks, especially from those who think they know us most intimately.
Taut and hypnotic, Audition is Katie Kitamura at her virtuosic best.

Italian MAS & MS Boats 1915–49
An illustrated history of the motor torpedo boats of Italy’s fast coastal forces, from their raids on enemy battleships in World War I to the dashing campaigns of World War II. The confined seas around Italy made fast torpedo boats particularly suitable for the Regia Marina. The first were derived from the glamorous prewar hotel motorboats of Venice; although too slow, they scored remarkable successes against Austro-Hungary, sinking, among other successes, two battleships, as well as conducting valuable and little-known anti-submarine work. Researched from unpublished primary sources, this is the first authoritative book in English to study the MAS boats, their larger MS successors, and their wars in the Adriatic, Mediterranean and beyond. Renowned Italian naval historian Enrico Cernuschi explores their evolving technology, roles, and how the boats fought in two world wars. Illustrated with unpublished photos and superb original artwork, it traces their history from the famous actions of World War I to the troubled search for a real ‘velocissimo’ (very fast) MAS boat and their multifaceted roles in World War II, from the Malta convoy battles to the Black Sea naval war. It also explores little-known episodes such as their dangerous, clandestine roles post-1943, landing intelligence agents and commandos, and their secret 1945–48 battles against Yugoslavian communist infiltrators.
Broken Republik
For many years, the post-war recovery of Germany was an inspirational story. Companies like Mercedes-Benz and Siemens became global titans, while the country's political leaders earned respect around the world. Even when the Berlin Wall fell, it initially seemed to reunify effortlessly.
But even at its peak, there were signs of trouble. So, when events started to turn against Germany, everything started to crumble. Volkswagen's emissions scandal damaged its industrial reputation, abandoning nuclear power left it reliant on Russia, and growing inequality boosted the far-right AfD.
Now updated for this edition, Broken Republik tells the compelling story of Germany's decline - where it all went wrong and how it could bounce back.
