Remember Where You’ve Buried the Bodies - Julie Lancaster

A brand new darkly humourous serial killer thriller for fans of How to Kill Your Family and The Thursday Murder Club. What happens when a serial killer forgets that he’s a serial killer? At Sunset House the tea is barely introduced to a teabag, the carpets are permanently flecked with glitter and care assistant Jolene would rather be watching daytime television than caring for the elderly – but someone might just have confessed to murder.Most think Gilbert’s sudden claim – ‘When I killed her’ – is likely to be the dementia talking. Or a spoiler for Midsomer Murders. Probably. Now, between bingo, staff drama and a suspicious game of pass the parcel, someone’s about to dig up more than buried memories…Darkly funny, sharply observant and unquestionably deadly, this is no Thursday Murder Club.‘So compelling, I couldn’t put it down’ Natasha Bache, author of 12 Ways to Kill Your Family at Christmas See what readers have to say:‘A heart pounding thriller that left me on the edge of my seat… one of the best books this year!

I Know Where You Buried Your Husband - Marie O'Hare

Evocative, sharp, and full of insightful humour, startling debut I Know Where You Buried Your Husband is a painfully relatable examination of 21st century womanhood. Sophia, Safa, Ella, Ajola and Caoimhe have been friends since school. They are difficult, unlikeable women; funny, sharp and clever ones – the sort that would have probably ended up burned at the stake a few hundred years ago. When one of them is about to be framed for murder, they inextricably bind their fates together via some bin bags, a spade and a promise never to tell. Afterwards, they decide to separate to ensure the safety of their secret, leaving each of them to navigate the daily challenges of womanhood alone. But when an anonymous blackmailer threatens to expose them years later, the group must come back together to get their stories straight – and find out who is behind their torment. But is it already too late?'Refreshing; funny, bold, wry. I want to press it into the hands of every woman I know – and maybe, even, some men!' - KATE SAWYER, Costa-shortlisted author of The Stranding'The strong female characters...will cause many heads to nod along in recognition and relief.'EMILY EDWARDS, author of ...

The Lost Dambuster Lancaster - Gaetan Sagot, Trevor, Dr. Kerry

In the late afternoon of 24 June 1944, eighteen aircraft from 617 Squadron, led to fame by Wing Commander Guy Gibson during the attack on the dams raid in May 1943, took off from their base at Woodhall Spa. Their target was the vast V2 rocket site at Wizernes in the Pas de Calais. Known today as La Coupole, this bunker complex had been built to serve as a reinforced launch site for the V2s that Hitler hoped would terrorise the British population. Once their target had been marked, the Lancasters dropped Tallboy bombs. Bomb bursts were recorded all around the target. The Dambusters, however, did not go unchallenged. One of the attackers, Lancaster DV403, flown by Flight Lieutenant John Edward DFC and coded KC-G, was hit by flak. The flight engineer, Flying Officer W.J. King DFC, died instantly. One of the Lancaster’s engines stuttered and the aircraft began to burn. Edward valiantly tried to hold course long enough for the rest of the crew to answer the ‘Abracadabra’ call to bale out. A Resistance worker saw crew members falling ‘like candles’ below their parachutes. Moments later DV403 hit the growing crops in nearby French fields. The Lancaster carried, unusually, ...

Fashion on the Ration - Julie Summers

In September 1939, just three weeks after the outbreak of war, Gladys Mason wrote briefly in her diary about events in Europe: ''Hitler watched German siege of Warsaw. City in flames.'' And, she continued, ''Had my wedding dress fitted. Lovely.''For Gladys Mason, and for thousands of women throughout the long years of the war, fashion was not simply a distraction, but a necessity - and one they weren''t going to give up easily. In the face of bombings, conscription, rationing and ludicrous bureaucracy, they maintained a sense of elegance and style with determination and often astonishing ingenuity. From the young woman who avoided the dreaded ''forces bloomers'' by making knickers from military-issue silk maps, to Vogue''s indomitable editor Audrey Withers, who balanced lobbying government on behalf of her readers with driving lorries for the war effort, Julie Summers weaves together stories from ordinary lives and high society to provide a unique picture of life during the Second World War.

The fifth book of poetry by a true poet''s poet with a unique mastery of language and experimentation.In Julie Doxsee’s The Fastening, the permanent imprints of love, childhood, death, and pleasure are elongated, handled delicately, celebrated, puzzled over, all while underpinned by hauntingly vicious origins. Landscapes in the book shift and jolt, melt into snowman slush or gash the flesh with matter-of-fact craters, thorns, rope burns, and rocks.The poet wants to scrub the sharp peaks with steel wool but recognizes how millions of these violence-borne imprints have ganged up to keep her alive. In The Fastening, bodies are soft sketches that could detonate at the pop of a flashbulb, diffuse into a cloud of vapor, or escape into a small recess with just enough space to breathe.

Lancaster And York - Alison Weirová

A lucid, gripping account of the human side of one of the bloodiest chapters of British history. The war between the houses of Lancaster and York for the throne of England was characterised by treachery, deceit and - at St Albans, Blore Hill and Towton, - some of the goriest and most dramatic battles on England''s soil. Between 1455 and 1487 the royal coffers were bankrupted, and the conflict resulted in the downfall of the houses of Lancaster and York and the emergence of the illustrious Tudor dynasty.Alison Weir''s account focuses on the people and personalities involved in the conflict. At the centre of the book stands Henry VI, the pious king whose mental instability led to political chaos, Richard Plantagenet, Duke of York and Henry''s rival, and most important of all, Margaret of Anjou, Henry''s wife who took up her arms in her husband''s cause and battled for many years in a violent man''s world.''A joy to read'' Economist

Show Me the Bodies - Peter Apps

WINNER OF THE ORWELL PRIZE FOR POLITICAL WRITING 2023'Never before, in years of reviewing books about buildings, has one brought me to tears. This one did.' Rowan Moore, Observer Book of the WeekOn 14 June 2017, a 24-storey block of flats went up in flames. The fire climbed up cladding as flammable as solid petrol. Fire doors failed to self-close. No alarm rang out to warn sleeping residents. As smoke seeped into their homes, all were told to ‘stay put’. Many did – and they died. It was a tragedy decades in the making. Peter Apps meticulously exposes how a steady stream of deregulation, corporate greed and institutional indifference caused a tragedy. 72 people did not need to die, as the Grenfell Tower Inquiry makes clear. Here is the story of a grieving community forsaken by our government, a community still waiting for justice. ***'Enormously important… A painstaking chronicle of an entirely avoidable tragedy, its aftermath and its causes.' JAMES O'BRIEN'Show Me the Bodies will never leave the mind of anyone who reads it.' GUARDIAN'A searing indictment of the construction industry and regulators… The book that follows reads like a prosecution, meticulous and fierce.' THE TIMES
