Death Cloud
**Young Sherlock is the inspiration for the Amazon Prime Series directed by Guy Ritchie**Death Cloud is the first in the Young Sherlock Holmes series in which the iconic detective is reimagined as a brilliant, troubled and curious teenager – creating unputdownable mystery adventures that remain true to the spirit of Arthur Conan Doyle's original books. The year is 1868, and Sherlock Holmes is fourteen. His life is that of a perfectly ordinary army officer’s son: boarding school, good manners, a classical education – the backbone of the British Empire. But all that is about to change. With his father suddenly posted to India, and his mother mysteriously ‘unwell’, Sherlock is sent to stay with his eccentric uncle and aunt in their vast house in Hampshire. So begins a summer that leads Sherlock to uncover his first murder, a kidnap, corruption and a brilliantly sinister villain of exquisitely malign intent . . . Sherlock Holmes. Think you know him? Think again. Continue the investigative adventures with Andrew Lane's Red Leech and Black Ice.

Wearing The Lion
God. Hero. Idol. Monster. Murderer. The story of Hercules is one of the most famous ever told. But what if it's wrong? Locus and Nebula Award-winning author John Wiswell brings his gentle, human storytelling to the most infamous of stories and discovers the heart inside us all. Furious with Zeus for once again siring a child with a mortal woman, Hera finds herself redirecting all her fury at the baby himself, Heracles, an innocent named in her honour. As Heracles grows into a man - an unfathomably strong, loving man - he thanks Hera for all the blessings he feels she's seen fit to bestow upon him. In a moment of misdirected rage, however, Hera sends a fury to kill Heracles' family. Heracles sets out on an epic quest to discover the name of the god who set their murders in motion. Desperate to keep him busy until she can come up with a solution, Hera sets Heracles a series of tests, as impossible as they are deadly: the Nemean lion, the hydra, the Stymphalian birds, the Aegean stables . . . But Heracles' innate kindness, along with his determination to discover the identity of the god who cost him everything he loves, carries him through each task. As his legend grows, so does Hera's desperation. A novel of friendship, of found family, of kindness and of legend, this is the story of Hercules as it has never been told before.
The Descent
An extraordinary first-hand account of Russia’s descent into totalitarianism, paranoia and madness.Marc Bennetts, foreign correspondent for The Times and The Sunday Times, moved to Russia in the chaotic yet free final years of President Yeltsin''s rule. Twenty-five years later, The Times pulled him out of Russia over concerns for his security following his arrest in Moscow at a protest against the war in Ukraine. From the “wild” 1990s in Moscow to narrowly escaping death under fire in Ukraine, The Descent is a unique and personal diary of how Russia spiraled into violent insanity. Bennetts witnessed the often-terrifying events in Russia up close, observing how the Kremlin''s ubiquitous propaganda warped minds and fomented hatred of Putin''s foes, both real and imagined, even among people close to him. After leaving Russia, he travelled in war-torn Ukraine, where he came face-to-face with the appalling consequences of this madness. Bennetts meets a vast array of characters, from Russian politicians, influential Russian Orthodox Church officials and aggressive Kremlin activists to opposition figures and a Siberian shaman who tried to “exorcise” Putin, as well as Russians who took up arms to fight Moscow''s invading forces. In this extraordinary panorama, Marc Bennetts shows in frightening detail how a society can lose its mind, and how easily a power-hungry leader can reshape an entire country in his own malevolent image.
Bad Kid
‘When I was thirteen I was sent away... Maybe dragged away is a better way to put it.’ A powerful and unflinching graphic memoir about what really happens inside America’s secretive ‘troubled teen’ correctional facilities – told from the inside with raw honesty and dark humour. Bad Kid tells the story of Sofia’s turbulent teenhood, including her experience of being taken away (‘kidnapped’) to a residential treatment centre aimed at ‘troubled teens’. Wise, funny and heartbreaking all at once, it presents – in a series of flashbacks – the unforgettable portrait of life in a US 'teenage boot camp' and offers YA readers a glimpse into the harmful effects that labels can have on us. Powerfully told in black and white comic strips accented with vivid pops of red, Bad Kid is the coming-of-age story of Sofia’s late childhood, and how her once-happy relationship with her mother sours irreparably when she marries Sofia’s stepfather. It follows her early teenage rebellion years in which she meets Marigold – ‘AKA the coolest girl I’d ever met’ – and together they set about finding themselves through the traditional teen pursuits of rule breaking, smoking, dodgy hook ups and bright red booty shorts . . . until the day when she is bundled into a car by total strangers and driven 400 miles to a teenage correction camp based deep in the woodlands of Virginia, US . . . This powerful and challenging memoir covers themes and ideas that are universal to teenagers everywhere – being misunderstood, mis-labelled and rejected, and speaks to relationship and mental health issues experienced by teens today. A striking coming-of-age story for YA and adult readers alike, Bad Kid reminds us that no one is beyond redemption – and that reclaiming your story can be the most powerful act of all.

The Groundbreaker
The Groundbreaker is an inspirational and riveting account of Kanwal Rekhi, who defined a generation of Indian entrepreneurs that changed the world. In many ways, Rekhi’s fascinating and singular journey mirrors the rise of modern India, offering a deeply personal account of US-India relations, both past and present. Dubbed the “Godfather of the Silicon Valley’s Indian Mafia,” by Fortune Magazine, Rekhi rubbed shoulders with luminaries named Gates, Jobs, and Ellison on his meteoric ascent through the tech industry. He went on to advise presidents and prime ministers on culture-shifting policies and is perhaps best known for his work inspiring and launching the careers of thousands of aspiring entrepreneurs, many of whom have become millionaires and even billionaires. Underscoring his own stories as an entrepreneur, investor, and mentor, Rekhi embraces American values, proving that immigrants not only contribute to the economy but often employ thousands of Americans in the process. In The Groundbreaker, Rekhi shares his firsthand account on what it meant to be an American at the dawn of the digital age, what it means to be an American now amidst massive change and uncertainty, and why democracy is crucial to the role entrepreneurs play in moving the world toward a better tomorrow. Drawing on his roles as an advisory board member at Stanford’s Institute of Economic Policy Research and Rand Corporation’s Center for Asian Pacific Policy, Rekhi explores the precarious but interdependent relationships between the US, India, China, and Russia; and how competition and alliances might evolve in the future, especially between America and India; and why the cooperation of the world’s oldest democracy and the world’s largest democracy is crucial to the continued balance of global power. More than just a business memoir, this book is a call to action—for dreamers, doers, and those brave enough to bet on themselves. With lessons on resilience, leadership, innovation, and purpose, it’s at once a deeply personal story of overcoming adversity and an urgent rallying cry for the next generation of changemakers.

Brit
Rose Cassidyová nežije, len existuje, pretože jediný spôsob, ako sa dá prežiť v tomto nemilosrdnom svete, je otupiť sa voči bolesti a strachu. Keď sa v smrteľnej hre o moc stáva rukojemníčkou mafiána Dannyho Blacka, narastá v nej záujem, ale aj hlboká túžba. Už počula príbehy o Britovi, o jeho krutosti a bezcitnosti. Nikto jej však nepovedal, že je aj zlovestne príťažlivý. Vidí priamo do jej duše a zároveň v nej vzbudzuje nádej – pocit, ktorý je pre ňu krutejší než všetko ostatné.
Keď si Danny ako záruku vyžiadal krásnu milenku jedného zo svojich nepriateľov, netušil, aké to bude mať následky. Rose ho svojím divokým šarmom tlačí na pokraj šialenstva, až si musí pripomínať, že je len nástrojom, riešením problému. Napriek tomu v Dannym vyvoláva silné city, ktoré by ho mohli stáť život. Najmä keď ho chcú všetci zabiť.

Divoká láska
Najsladšie ovocie je to zakázané
Ford Grant je podľa časopisu Forbes považovaný za „Najpríťažlivejšieho miliardára na svete“. Pozornosť verejnosti však pre neho nie je vítaná a rád by si otvoril nahrávacie štúdio v nádhernom mestečku Rose Hill. Všetko sa skomplikuje, keď sa pred ním zjaví mladé dievča, ktoré ho označí za svojho biologického otca. Fordov život sa zrazu zmení na balansovanie medzi biznisom a výchovou mrzutej dvanásťročnej pubertiačky – nehovoriac o Rosie Belmontovej, sestre svojho najlepšieho priateľa, od ktorej musí držať ruky preč.
Rose po živote vo veľkomeste vtrhla späť do rodného mestečka ako búrka. Krásna, chaotická a nepredvídateľná. A stačí jedna úpenlivá prosba o prácu, aby ju Ford zamestnal. Síce sa snaží držať si ju od tela protivnými poznámkami a jednoslovnými odpoveďami, každá slovná prestrelka medzi nimi sa stáva akousi predohrou a vyvoláva iskrenie, ktoré rýchlo prerastie v niečo viac.
Ford si uvedomuje, že by nemal prekročiť túto nebezpečne tenkú hranicu, pretože nemôcť a nechcieť sú dve odlišné veci. Ostáva mu len jediné. Pokúsiť sa jej odolať.
