Crime reporter Eleanor Wooley is reporting on the annual Mother’s Day Rodeo when wildfire breaks out in Gold Strike County high country and a dead woman is pulled from the nearby Little Bear River. The community turns inward in fear. Wooley, following her own instincts and a series of deadend trails, worries that this year’s Rodeo Queen may be the next victim.

Anishinaabe wilderness guide Leonard Parker appears again and continues to surprise. In the aftermath of one crisis after another in this second book of the Wild Horses Mystery series, it’s a beautiful wild stallion who Eleanor and her lover, rancher Easton Jode, have rescued from slaughter that restores the light in a small rural town living under the shadow of death.

In Search of Hope
The Fundraiser Who Became a Philanthropist.
A leading fundraiser and philanthropist’s memoir about money, power and the common good. John Nickson traces his journey from privilege to purposeful giving, showing how philanthropy, civil society and ordinary citizens can repair divided Britain and renew hope.
“ John takes us through his life as a fundraiser for a succession of important organisations, and then his transformation into a philosopher of philanthropy and a philanthropist himself. In doing so, he may well have provided us with some of the answers to the bleak times we are living through – to the rise of authoritarianism, the decline of liberal democracy, the absence of hope in too many people’s lives.
John’s book can help. Its fundamental belief in the role of civil society, of collective decision and action, of the value of empathy, of the purposes of philanthropy, can help to steer us to a better world.” – Chris Smith ( Rt Hon Lord Smith of Finsbury, Chancellor of the University of Cambridge)
“John Nickson has seen it all in the world of giving… He argues passionately and with an army of witnesses and examples that the very health of our society requires a solid foundation of charity, philanthropy and local responsibility for the myriad of society’s actual needs. He dares to hope that society at large will recognise these needs and respond to them.”
Sir John Tusa

My Year in Paris with Gertrude Stein
Who was Gertrude Stein?
Avant-garde American poet and art collector who made her home in Paris, godmother of modernism, queer icon, friend to Picasso and Hemingway, self-declared genius - a writer who has baffled readers and critics for a century.
And why does she matter?
The narrator of Deborah Levy's latest, dazzling fiction has gone to Paris to find out. There she meets Eva with the blinding gaze, an artist in a long-distance marriage, and Fanny, a sexually adventurous financier; together they cook, walk, read and argue late into the nights.
As Paris sweeps her along in its ceaseless flow, she thinks - about what we have to lose to become modern, navigating anxiety, living with uncertainty, angry fathers, making a new life in another country, art and language - how all these things looked to Gertrude Stein in the early days of the twentieth century, and how they look to her and her friends in the early twenty-first.
This is a book about how we put ourselves together- an exhilarating, witty, cosmopolitan meditation on the pleasures and challenges of friendship, desire and living with other people. But it is also crashes through genre to create an inspired portrait of Stein herself: a writer who experimented fearlessly with a new way of living and who wrestled herself free from the nineteenth century to invent a brand-new way of looking at the world.
I Served The King Of England
Ditie is a pint-sized hotel waiter with big dreams.
Between pocketing stolen change from unsuspecting customers and reminiscing on nights spent at the local brothel, he fantasises about his immense - and imagined - riches.
Then, ludicrously, Ditie's dreams start to become reality.
Yet while his chaotic adventures lead him to ever more glamorous hotels, beyond the sparkling dining halls, the forces of twentieth-century European history march on.
A whirlwind of comic genius, a gut-punch of narrative power, this is the story of one small man's rise and fall - or fall and rise - against the shadowy backdrop of Europe's darkest days.
WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY ADAM THIRLWELL
