The Beginning and End of Everything: with a foreword by Davina McCall
‘An inspiring must-read for anyone who is searching for hope in darkness of loss, grief or addiction’ Gillian AndersonSarah Hiscox’s deep self-esteem and addiction issues began in childhood when she was given powerful sleeping pills for her nightmares. Then, as a young woman, a toxic relationship with food morphed into a full-blown heroin dependency that neither a loving marriage nor a new baby could halt. After years of cycling through relapse and new starts, Sarah’s relationships were wrecked. In rehab she was confronted with herself and all that she’d lost. But it would take repeated attempts for her to understand even her worst day of abstinence was better than the days she relapsed. Just a few threads of hope remained – a desire to see her children grow, a friend called Davina, a sister and an ex-husband who, despite it all, still loved her. A compelling, wonderfully uplifting true story of the redemptive power of self-acceptance, friendship and love.

Exhibition
The must-read art world novel of the summer: a story of love, ego and destruction, and the dark relationship between authenticity and celebrity, artist and muse. London. 1990s. Amid the heady rebellion of Young British Artists, Rabble Stone, a photographer, meets the artist, a painter, after renting a room in her Brixton home. Soon Rabble is in thrall to this new world: to the run-down glamour of the Victorian house; to the exhilarating and debauched gallery openings, and to those in the artist's orbit, beautiful and lost. Above all, she is drawn to her new friend's work; raw, unfiltered self-portraits of startling intimacy, which Rabble captures in her uncompromising photographs. But as Rabble's longing tips into obsession, her pursuit of the artist - her fame, her wealth, her life - threatens to consume her... "Sharp, vivid, compelling: a love letter to the last identifiable scene in British Art that captures the energy, grit and luxury and hunger of 90s London" - Lizzy Stewart, author of Alison and Wreck

Voyagers
With the imaginative soul and propulsive storytelling of Station Eleven and The Ministry of Time, Voyagers is a profoundly human, thrillingly original and brilliantly ambitious literary debut about friendship at the end of the world. If the world was about to end, who would you want by your side? When the Signal – a mysterious transmission pulsing from the edge of the solar system – arrives, the world changes overnight. Planes are grounded, satellites fail, humanity holds its breath. And Alex realises there’s no one he’d rather be with at the potential apocalypse than Ana. Because when they were six years old, Ana and Alex were abducted by aliens. Or at least, that’s what they told the rescuers who found them after their 36 hours missing in Palm Springs, and the story they stuck to as they became minor child stars. Now, as the Signal grows louder and the world devolves into chaos, the two race to meet each other for one final reckoning. VOYAGERS is a novel about friendship and family, celebrity and conspiracy, memory and mystery. It explores what it means to live by one story before, at last, having the courage to tell a different one. 'In Voyagers, Meg Charlton explores the connections between memory, storytelling, and truth. Against the backdrop of a global crisis, her characters contend with the lasting pain and confusion of a personal crisis. This novel grapples with the possibility of extraterrestrial life, but even more so with the possibility of friendship that is generous and forgiving. A delightful and moving debut' Helen Phillips, author of Hum and The Need 'Voyagers is a tender sweeping epic about the quest for the self. Meg Charlton asks, in elegant and compelling prose: 'Can we escape the terrible events of our past or make of them what we will? And what happens to intimacy when we share a past but remember it differently?'. At its heart, Voyagers is a story about storytelling – how it tears us apart and might bring us back together again' Taymour Soomro, author of Other Names for Love

The Sound of Many Waters
Join Robin Crawford on a personal journey from the source of the River Tay to the sea. With the widest catchment area of any river in Britain, the Tay drains much of the lower Highlands of Scotland. A vast network of lochs and smaller bodies of water feed the Isla, Garry, Tummel, Almond and Earn, which all flow into this mighty river. As Robin Crawford walks along the banks of the Tay, we delve into the history of this landscape and his personal connection with it, from hill walks with friends into the mountains of the Tay’s source to his student days in Dundee, where the Tay eventually spills out into the North Sea. Along the route we dip into the river’s story: the gold-panners on the river Cononish, the Earthquake House outside Comrie, Beatrix Potter’s holiday home near Dunkeld. Throughout, the river is our constant companion, connecting the small moments on which events turn and lives are changed forever.

Two girls discover themselves through electrically charged games, which they will recall in letters for the rest of their lives. Set between Japan and Argentina, these entrancing stories of loss and exile circle around our deepest, most mysterious emotional truths, culminating in startling moments of revelation.
