The Body Builders


Ada lives a solitary life. She spends her days swimming in her apartment building''s pool, occasionally visiting her cousin Francesca, meeting people for drinks, navigating the social mores of a cold and isolating London. Ada''s parents are recently divorced: her father spends his days at the gym, warm with human proximity. Her mother spends her days alone.When she meets a man named Atticus by the pool, Ada immediately senses an intimate connection between them: as if they share a life, in a way she can''t explain, maybe even a consciousness. Little by little, Ada''s estrangement from her familiar surroundings, memories and reality widens, as though she is seeing her reflection through a mirror, pieces of it falling away. She worries she may be losing her mind.After her mother entreats Ada to join her on a remote Greek holiday, Ada''s connection to her world and her body itself, falls away completely. She is jolted into a new, artificial environment - The Facility: a place apparently designed to meet her every wish, but where secrets hide along endless hallways and behind closed doors. When a person''s life, in the odd space between mind and body, is inherently one of isolation, are our connections with those around us merely projections of ourselves? And if not, where do they come from?With precision, subtlety, and confidence Albertine Clarke transforms touches of the sci-fi into an entirely singular experience of deep interiority. The Body Builders lands like a blow, widening a crack that allows us to perceive the world differently than we ever imagined.

The Asset Class


A thrilling, eye-opening investigation into private equity, a secretive wing of the finance industry that is so relentlessly destructive, it could have been created to undermine our way of life You don't know their names, but they own the house you rent. They own your hospitals, nurseries and care homes, the media you consume and the companies you work for. They even own the tools your union uses to fight back. Business is a contest - and they say their people are built to win. But when does competition become a struggle to the death? For decades, private equity firms have infiltrated every corner of modern life. Wielding debt as a weapon, they push vital services into crisis. Their cover story: that this is merely the 'creative destruction' essential to growth. Old-school capitalists say they're dismantling everything that made our economies work. In The Asset Class, reporter Hettie O'Brien penetrates a hidden empire of billion-dollar deals and covert financial warfare. From Copenhagen to San Francisco, Barcelona to the Yorkshire Dales, she follows the money, the ideological roots and the trail of destruction. What she finds is chilling: private equity isn't just reshaping the economy - it's selling out the foundations of Western society. The new owners think they can hide in the shadows. But the owned are fighting back.

Unable to lose Thea, the only person who understands her, Ilse enters the Hexenwald, hoping that the monsters it harbours will finally scare her. But the forest is hiding a multitude of secrets and Ilse is about to discover that there’s much more than fear to be found within...Inspired by Bavarian folklore, Season of Fear is a beautifully dark feminist fairytale for fans of Ava Reid and Hannah Whitten, which features a seductive lesbian romance and explores the power in being different and accepting yourself for who you are.
