Kit Fielding s debut is a triumph. A story told with brutal honesty, underpinned by humour, love, hope and the inestimable power of friendship. RUTH HOGAN, author of The Keeper of Lost Things In every pub in every town unspoken stories lie beneath the surface.Each week, six women meet at The Bluebell Inn. They form an unlikely and occasionally triumphant ladies darts team. They banter and jibe, they laugh. But their hidden stories of love and loss are what, in the end, will bind them. There is Mary, full of it but cradling her dark secret; Lena - young and bold, she has made her choice; the cat woman who must return to the place of her birth before it s too late. There s Maggie, still laying out the place for her husband; and Pegs, the dark-eyed girl from the travellers site bringing her strangeness and first love. And Katy: unappreciated. Open to an offer. They know little of each other s lives. But here they gather and weave a delicate and sustaining connection that maybe they can rely on as the crossroads on their individual paths threaten to overwhelm.With humanity and insight, Kit Fielding reveals the great love that lies at the heart of female friendship.Raw, funny and devastating, all of life can be found at the Bluebell.

But Crime Does Punish - Ján Johanides
So, as you see, I am familiar with the case. However, we can t discuss it unless you learn more about some other court cases, so that you can compare your father s trial with other, more baffling cases, and see it in the context of the madness that reigned at the time. In Ján Johanides riveting Slovak novel, you the reader are thrust in medias res, assuming the role of a silent partner in a one-sided conversation with someone you know nothing about. As the pages turn, you must grasp onto significant details to piece together who you are, who the narrator is, and why you have sought him out. As the story unfolds you come to learn that the old archivist, who can t seem to stay on point, has both a tragic history and the keys to unlocking your family s darkest secret. A secret that may or may not involve the Czechoslovak secret police, American and Soviet intelligence, Israeli politics, and a tire full of 90,000 dollars. Set after the fall of communism and the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, casual paranoia permeates the novel as it reveals how the madness of the Communist era has led to the instability of the present. Written in 1995, this haunting novel that evokes the spirit of John Le Carre and the style of Carlos Fuentes shines a searchlight on issues that plague post-Communist Europe today.
