Lost Girls
A MISSING TEENAGER. A CITY FULL OF SECRETS... When the daughter of the Swedish Ambassador disappears from her prestigious London school in broad daylight, the authorities are on high alert. There are no witnesses and no ransom demand: thirteen-year-old Freya Sjöberg has vanished into thin air. With the Metropolitan Police out of their depth, specialist agent DS Madeleine Farrow is called in to handle the case. As a former pupil at Wimpole Girls, she knows the school's affluent corridors only too well. But even she can't anticipate the dark secrets held within its walls. With the clock ticking since Freya's disappearance, Madeleine must return to a place that holds painful memories to find a girl who has left no trace. For help, she calls on dogged - and occasionally maverick - young private investigator Ramona Chang. Together the unlikely pair find themselves plunged into a world of extreme wealth and dangerous secrets. The deeper they dig, the more they uncover - exposing a tangled web of conspiracy and lies that could change everything they thought they knew about the case, and each other.

Murder Like Clockwork
An empty house that isn't empty. A victim who vanishes. An impossible crim? very Thursday at midday Audrey Brooks cleans the Petrov house. Mr Petrov is never home - in fact he seems to use the house purely as storage for his impressive collection of antiques - but that doesn't affect the care with which Audrey mops, polishes, and carefully winds each of the dozens of beautiful clocks that decorate the tall, elegant, empty London mansion. Until the morning she finds a corpse in the back bedroom, the pristine walls and floor covered in blood, and flees the house in panic. Fifteen minutes later, the police arrive... and find nothing. No body. No blood. The only thing slightly out of the ordinary is the clock in that back bedroom, which is now running four minutes slow. With no victim, the police are convinced there was no murder, but Audrey knows better. A man has been killed, and if they won't do anything about it, she - and her annoying friend Lewis - will. Whodunnit is one thing, but this detective duo must also wrestle with when - and where on earth is the body? It's not long since they solved the murder of their neighbour, so they're not rookie sleuths, and at least this time the case has no connection to their home. Does i? charming and witty locked-room mystery full of twists, perfect for fans of Richard Osman, Tom Hindle, and Janice Hallett. 'A glorious read ...

Container Conjure
“Starr Casas guides you to understand the traditions and very much draws upon the lessons she’s learned over a lifetime of Conjure, but she also makes it abundantly clear that you are a magical container yourself, and your powers of enchantment are limited only by your imagination.”—from the foreword by Cory Thomas HutchesonThe Definitive Guide to Container and Jar MagicOne of the oldest and most traditional forms of magic, container spells are used for all sorts of purposes, from love to protection to money, and are an increasingly popular style of spellcasting. Container magic is known for its simplicity, featuring ingredients and containers commonly found in the home. Containers range from the portable, such as charm bags and coffee containers, to larger containers, such as living plants and tire planters. Container Conjure teaches readers, armed with nothing more than a handful of simple ingredients and their discernment, the ins and outs of performing container magic for themselves. Starr Casas is an acknowledged authority on and master of Conjure-style container magic. In Container Conjure, Mama Starr teaches you how to load your own containers and maintain control over your spellcasting. Starr’s container magic method is not limited to jars; she also uses dolls, sachets, fruit, and other organic material as “containers,” making this form of magic accessible to practitioners at any level.

Lady Doctors
At a time when medicine is a highly sought-after career for Indian women, it is hard to imagine what it was like for the pioneers. The story of how firmly they were bound in fetters of family, caste and society, and how fiercely they fought to escape, needs to be told. In Lady Doctors, Kavitha Rao unearths the extraordinary stories of six women from the 1860s to the 1930s, who defied the idea that they were unfit for medicine by virtue of their gender. From Anandibai Joshi, who broke caste rules by crossing an ocean, to Rukhmabai Raut, who escaped a child marriage, divorced her husband and studied to be a doctor; from Kadambini Ganguly, who took care of eightchildren while she worked, to child widow Haimabati Sen, who overcame poverty and hardship-these women had a profound and lasting impact. And in their forgotten lives lie many lessons for modern women. In truth, the compelling stories of these radical women have been erased from our textbooks and memories, because histories have mostly been written by men, about men. In an immensely readable narrative, and with impeccable research, Lady Doctors rectifies this omission.

Ticho, ktoré hovorí nahlas
"Táto kniha nevznikla preto, že by som mala všetky odpovede. Vznikla v momente, keď som ich prestala hľadať mimo seba.
Je to osobná výpoveď o tichu, ktoré bolí, o tele, ktoré kričí skôr než myseľ, a o odchode, ktorý nebol slabosťou, ale vyslobodením.
O vzťahu, ktorý ma ničil potichu.
O úzkosti, pochybnostiach a hanbe,
ktoré sa nenápadne stali súčasťou každodenného života.
A o návrate k sebe a k vlastnej hodnote.
Pre všetkých, ktorí sa niekedy báli nadýchnuť, stratili sa vo vzťahoch, ktoré ich oslabovali, a hľadajú domov nie vonku, ale v sebe."
Speak to Me of Home
From the Sunday Times bestselling author of American Dirt, comes a heartfelt, multigenerational family story which asks: what does it mean to call a place home?

Her daughter, in New York with a family of her own, wishes she could forget her muddy feelings about where she comes from - the same feelings which motivated her 22-year-old daughter Daisy to reconnect with their past.
Daisy, who has momentarily forgotten everything, hears the word critical in a hospital room in San Juan and remembers, all at once, the car that hurtled towards her, the terrible storm, and something else. What was it?
Now Ruth and Rafaela must return to the city where it all began, to gather by Daisy's bedside and confront the twists of fate that have caused a growing rift in their family and led them to this moment.
