The Traitors Circle
When the whole world is lying, someone must tell the truth.
Berlin, 1943. A group of high-society anti-Nazi dissenters meet for a tea party one late summer afternoon. They do not know that, sitting around the table, is someone poised to betray them all to the Gestapo - revealing their secret to the Nazis' most ruthless detective.
They form a circle of unlikely rebels, drawn from the German elite: two countesses, a diplomat, an intelligence officer, an ambassador's widow and a pioneering headmistress. Meeting in the shadows, rescuing Jews or plotting for a future Germany freed from the Führer's rule, what unites them is a shared loathing of the Nazis, a refusal to bow to Hitler and the courage to perform perilous acts of resistance. Or so they believe.
How did a group of brave, principled rebels, who had successfully defied Adolf Hitler for more than a decade, come to fall into such a lethal trap? And who betrayed them?
Undone from within and pursued to near-destruction by one of the Reich's cruellest men, they showed a heroism that raises a question with new urgency for our time: what kind of person does it take to risk everything and stand up to tyranny?
Méltó ellenfelek
Lebilincselő és felkavaró történet családról, gazdagságról és sikerről a világ kedvenc mesélőjétől, Danielle Steeltől.
Spencer Brooke abban a tudatban nevelkedett, hogy egy nap ő lesz New York egyik legkülönlegesebb luxusáruházának tulajdonosa és vezérigazgatója. A vérében van mindaz a tudás, ami a nagyapja által alapított áruház irányításához szükséges a 21. századi versenyben.
Mike Weston gazdag és sikeres befektető, aki azzal szerzett hír-nevet, hogy jó érzékkel vásárol meg és alakít át üzleti vállalkozásokat. Mivel házassága tönkrement, gyermekei pedig felnőttek, a befektetés az a terület, ahol igazán elemében van. Spencer áruházát elsődleges célpontnak tekinti. De a gyönyörű és okos vezérigazgató asszony viszszautasítja az ajánlatát még mielőtt személyesen találkoznának, mert mindenáron családi tulajdonban akarja tartani nagyapja örökségét.
Egy váratlan balszerencsés esemény azonban sarokba szorítja Spencert. Vajon képes lesz-e ilyen kemény piaci feltételek mellett versenyre kelni a félelmetes ellenféllel?
Az éjfél háza
O vojne a rodinnej záhade
1940. V juhozápadnom Írsku je mladá a krásna lady Charlotte Rathmoreová vyhlásená za mŕtvu po tom, čo záhadne zmizne, a stopy vedú k brehom jazera vedľa rodinného hradu. V Londýne, uprostred nemeckých náletov, jej švagriná Nancy smúti nad Charlottinou smrťou, no zrazu sa z nečakaného listu dozvie o tajomstve, ktoré navždy zmení jej život.
1958. Keď Nancyin manžel zdedí zlovestný rodinný hrad, žena si rýchlo uvedomí, že svet aristokracie nie je taký očarujúci, ako sa zvonku zdá... A na to, čo objaví, nikdy nezabudne.
2019. O desaťročia neskôr Ellie Fitzgeraldová opúšťa Dublin, ponížená a zlomená. Jej život je v troskách. Vzdáva sa svojej novinárskej kariéry a vracia sa do svojho rodiska, írskej dediny pri oceáne. Keď však medzi stránkami starej knihy nájde vyblednutý list, je vtiahnutý do záhady Charlottiného zmiznutia. Ako sa približuje k pravde, musí sa postaviť vlastným démonom a vybrať si: vrátiť sa k starému, ideálnemu životu, o ktorom si kedysi myslel, že ho má, alebo sa vydať na neznámu cestu slobody.
Dokonalá voľba pre fanúšikov Kate Morton, Lucindy Riley a Santa Montefiore.

Game. Set. Perfect Match?
Recently-turned-pro tennis player Austin Hardy has been out since high school, and it's never been a big deal. That is, until he becomes the first openly gay man to compete in a Grand Slam tournament. Suddenly, being gay is a huge deal.
If the newly found fame wasn't enough to send Austin spiralling, then tripping and falling in front of the very talented, very attractive, (probably) straight World #2, Diego Cruz, is the last straw.
Only, the awkward gaffe marks the start of a blossoming friendship off the court. But when Diego admits his attraction to Austin, the flirty banter and mixed signals start to throw Austin off his game. And neither player wants to acknowledge their looming showdown at the fourth round of the US Open.
Only one can win in the game of tennis, but who will win in the game of love?

Joining an exclusive high school should be a fresh start for Jihad after her mother's sudden death. But she's the only Muslim student there; her hijab and even her name make her new classmates suspicious.

As tension mounts, she finds refuge in an old sketchbook and in the stories her mama used to tell her. She is determined to focus on making it to art school and a brighter future, but as she starts illustrating her mother's memories, her canvas becomes bigger than she could ever have imagined.
Can Jihad become as resilient as the true meaning of her name, and let the colour back into her life?
An unputdownable story about family, friendship, grief and trust from a masterful writer of the genre.
The Break-In
You know who. But you don't know why
Alice didn't mean to kill the intruder. She only meant to stop him hurting her daughter when he burst into her kitchen and grabbed a knife.
The police agree that she acted in self-defence, but wracked with guilt, Alice sets out to apologise to Linda, the mother of the young man she killed. But nothing unfolds as planned.
Alice can't bring herself to tell Linda who she really is and the more Alice learns about Ezra and why he was at her house, the more she starts to wonder whether she has the full picture about what happened that terrible day.
The new must-read thriller from the rising star of smart suspense fiction.
Intimacy
From the initial spark of attraction when your eyes first meet, to spontaneously dancing together in the kitchen and falling asleep side by side - how do we create those intimate moments of connection?
How we see sex and intimacy portrayed on screen has profound effects on how we learn to love each other, but before Ita O'Brien, no-one was thinking about it. After a lifetime of working in film and TV and seeing its abuses first-hand, Ita decided to change how we portray intimacy for good.
Now, as Intimacy Coordinator on productions including Normal People, Sex Education and I May Destroy You, Ita has transformed the way we see and talk about sex in pop-culture. Here, Ita guides us through how she helps actors create authentic sex scenes, and how we can use those techniques to rebuild a deeper and healthier connection with our bodies, create a safe space for exploration, and rethink how we navigate sex and intimacy in our own lives - at home, in our closest relationships - and in society as a whole.
Full of behind-the-scenes stories from her work on set, Intimacy is a call for us to rethink how we navigate ourselves and each other, not just through our words, but through our bodies and actions, too.
Fires Which Burned Brightly
In Fires Which Burned Brightly, Faulks, a reluctant memoirist, offers readers a series of detailed snapshots from a life in progress. They include a post-war rural childhood – ‘cold mutton and wet washing on a rack over the range’ – the booze-sodden heyday of Fleet Street and a career as one of the country’s most acclaimed novelists.
There are not one, but two daring escapes from boarding school; the delirium of a jetlagged American book tour; the writing of Birdsong in his brother’s house in 1992; and memorable trips across the channel to France. Politics, psychiatry and frustrated ventures into the world of entertainment are analysed with patience and rueful humour.
The book is driven by a desire ‘to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.’ It ends with a tribute to Faulks’s parents and a sense of how his own generation was shaped by the disruptive power of war and its aftermath.
Sharply perceptive and alive with a generous wit, Fires Which Burned Brightly is a work of subtle yet profound intelligence and warmth.
Vzpomínky na mrtvé
V tomto mrazivém románu autora „nezapomenutelného a děsivého“ (cit. Harlan Coben) Honu na Bubáka se skupina studentů během cesty po Apalačských horách střetne s nadpřirozenou hrůzou.
1983: Tři vysokoškolští studenti se vydávají na týdenní výlet, aby pro svůj školní projekt natočili dokument o pomníčcích u silnice. Projekt začíná jako zábavné dobrodružství provázené dlouhými jízdami po prázdných silnicích a nočními táboráky, kde se sobě navzájem začínají otevírat.
Když se však odváží vydat hlouběji do apalačských lesů, atmosféra začíná temnět. Všímají si, že stále více památníků obsahuje zvláštní, znepokojivý symbol, který ukazuje na zlověstné tajemství. Paranoia se prohlubuje, když se jim začne zdát, že jsou sledováni. S jejich vozidlem je přes noc manipulováno a někteří místní obyvatelé působí všelijak, jen ne vlídně.
Zanedlouho začne studenty trápit otázka, zda tato úmrtí na silnici byla skutečně náhodnými nehodami… nebo se tady děje cosi děsivého?

Asi nejsem na tenhle svět stavěná
V osmnácti letech se Marie nechá dobrovolně hospitalizovat v psychiatrické léčebně. Od té chvíle jde ale všechno z kopce. Mrazivě upřímný příběh z místa, kde se nikdo z nás netouží ocitnout.
Marie má milující rodiče, stabilní zázemí a všechny předpoklady pro šťastný život. Něco je ale špatně. Přestává jíst, řeže se žiletkou a z videí na YouTube se naučí píchat si heroin, jen aby umlčela hlasy v hlavě. Jenže ty se umlčet nedají. Nutí ji odmítat léky a trestat se, jinak prý ublíží její rodině. Hranice mezi halucinacemi a realitou se rozplývá.
Marie se zas a znovu vrací na uzavřené oddělení. Tam tráví dlouhé hodiny i celé dny připoutaná k lůžku. Podstupuje léčbu elektrošoky. Nic ovšem nezabírá. Selhává systém, selhává ona sama. Přesto temnotou občas probleskne naděje, humor a lidskost.

Bacon Disfigured
A collection of essays that opens up new connections between Francis Bacon's art and the ideas of key thinkers.
Francis Bacon is undoubtedly one of the most important artists of the twentieth century. In his paintings, Bacon radically disfigures his subjects, making them all but unrecognizable. This is no mere stylistic quirk, but the expression of a deeply held aesthetic vision. For Bacon, the essence of a subject can only be captured in the distorted recording of its appearance. His disfigurations are therefore, as he himself says, attempts to bring back the intensity of reality, to paint images that are 'truer than the literal truth'.
In this groundbreaking collection of essays, some of today's leading philosophers and psychoanalytic theorists go to work on Bacon. They do to the artist what the artist does to his own figures: they disfigure and distort him, twisting and turning him into something new and previously unseen. This strategy of disfiguration blasts Bacon out of his traditional contexts, opening up new connections between his art and the ideas of key thinkers, including Kant, Marx, Nietzsche, Baudelaire, Freud, Canguilhem, Genet, Lacan, Adorno and Althusser. The results are revelatory, allowing us to transform our understanding not only of Bacon but also of modernism itself.
Lamborghini
Since the unveiling of the Lamborghini Miura – the world’s first V12-powered mid-engine road car – at the 1966 Geneva Motor Show, this marque from Sant’Agata Bolognese with the raging bull emblem has been one of the most famous and desirable purveyors of the supercar. Valentino Balboni, legendary former Lamborghini test driver, has been famously quoted as saying “Lamborghini is a carmaker that makes engines, the job of the designers was to design the engine cover.” Yet, in its almost six decades long history, the supercar maker has constructed just four different engines: the extraordinary Giotto Bizzarrini-designed V12 that powered Lamborghini’s flagships for the best part of five decades, a promising V8 that almost brought the company to its knees, a V10 that uses many Audi components and has been the mainstay of the marque in the last two decades, and lastly another newer V12, powering the Aventador. However, what has really distinguished Lamborghini, has been a series of models with remarkable, groundbreaking shapes, each one a veritable design revolution. Cars like the Miura, the Espada, the Urraco, the Countach and the Diablo astounded and startled automotive fans just as much by their daring shape, form and aesthetic purity, as by their second-to-none engineering and trendsetting packaging. This book celebrates the design history of Lamborghini through numerous period reports and previously unpublished images, delving into the extraordinary shapes and the intrepid personalities who made Lamborghini what it is today. .

Mother Mary Comes To Me
The incredible first memoir from the Booker-winning radical icon Arundhati Roy, author of The God of Small Things
THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
SHORTLISTED FOR WATERSTONES BOOK OF THE YEAR 2025
SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMENS PRIZE FOR NONFICTION 2026
'Heart-smashed' by the death of the mother she ran from at age eighteen and shaken by the intensity of her response, Arundhati Roy began this remarkable memoir - a soaring account, both intimate and inspiring, of how the author became the person and the writer she is: shaped by circumstance, but above all by her relationship to her extraordinary, singular mother, Mary, who she describes as 'my shelter and my storm'.
With the scale, sweep and depth of her novels, and the passion, political clarity and warmth of her essays, Mother Mary Comes to Me is an ode to freedom, a tribute to thorny love and savage grace - a memoir like no other.
