''Frontierlands'' are Britain''s forgotten places, ripe for reinvention. Once economic engines, they are the outposts that investors and the state have forgotten: silt-filled harbours, overgrown forests, sunken railway tracks and empty buildings.

Moving from the South West to Gateshead in the North East, from Lancashire to London and the South East, she introduces us to the people who are acting to shape their own futures - people with first-hand knowledge of the problems Britain faces and with clear ideas how to make things better.This is a book of community spirit, regeneration, empowerment and hope. We will question our assumptions about the workings of the world and learn how we can build a different one, ready for the enormous upheaval on the horizon - challenging the frontiers of our own minds.

But wedding-induced pressures – including an uptight bride-to-be and her vicious cronies, a hometown hookup buddy who Julia can’t seem to resist, and tricky dynamics with her divorced parents – force Julia to confront the complications that have been bubbling underneath the surface of her closest relationships, all while she tries to fulfill her sisterly duties as Best Woman.To top it all off: Kim Cameron is the maid of honor.

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER'A dramatic, poignant and astonishing untold story of the Holocaust.' SIMON SEBAG MONTEFIORE‘Extraordinary. One of the most haunting episodes of the war.’ DAILY MAIL'The remarkable story of a unique event - the reprieve of 51 Hungarian Jewish teenagers already naked and trapped inside the gas chambers.' PROFESSOR ROBERT JAN VAN PELTAn unforgettable testament to hope and the bonds of brotherhood, Miracle reveals the untold story of the boys who escaped the gas chamber in Auschwitz, the only known group of Holocaust survivors to walk away from the jaws of the Nazi killing machine. Early on the morning of October 10, 1944, eight-hundred boys, aged between 13 and 17, were taken out of Block 11 at Auschwitz. The night before, during a visit by Dr Josef Mengele, their identification cards had been stamped with a solitary German word – gestorben – 'died' in English. They were then marched by 25 bayonet-wielding SS men to Crematorium 5, stripped, and herded into a gas chamber. This book is the story of a true-life miracle of the fifty-one boys who were pulled from that gas chamber – the only Holocaust survivors known to have escaped such a close brush with the Nazi killing machine – and given a second chance at life. A life, of course, that would be so horrifically snatched from those around them. Based on the first-hand testimonies of six of the boys, six survivors whose stories are shared in this book for the very first time, Miracle interweaves the lives of the boys and the grander sweep of history in which they were held. The result is an unforgettable tale of hope, faith and fortitude in the face of one of the worst crimes against humanity. ‘Astonishing. A powerful book.’ JEWISH NEWS'A truly extraordinary story.' JAMES O'BRIEN‘The remarkable but harrowing true story. Extraordinary.’ TIMES RADIO
