The Murders at White House Farm - Carol Ann Lee
The Sunday Times bestseller and the definitive story behind the ITV factual drama White House Farm, about the horrific killings that took place in 1985. On 7 August 1985, Nevill and June Bamber, their daughter Sheila and her two young sons Nicholas and Daniel were discovered shot to death at White House Farm in Essex. The murder weapon was found on Sheila''s body, a bible lay at her side. All the windows and doors of the farmhouse were secure, and the Bambers'' son, 24-year-old Jeremy, had alerted police after apparently receiving a phone call from his father, who told him Sheila had ''gone berserk'' with the gun. It seemed a straightforward case of murder-suicide, but a dramatic turn of events was to disprove the police''s theory. In October 1986, Jeremy Bamber was convicted of killing his entire family in order to inherit his parents'' substantial estates. He has always maintained his innocence.Drawing on interviews and correspondence with many of those closely connected to the events – including Jeremy Bamber – and a wealth of previously unpublished documentation, Carol Ann Lee brings astonishing clarity to a complex and emotive case. She describes the years of rising tension in the family that ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Smrt darebáka - Caroline Grahamová - audiokniha
Audiokniha: „Nemůžeš si podříznout krk, aby vůbec nebyla vidět krev.“ Vášně cloumají s herci před každou premiérou, nicméně spolek ochotníků z Caustonu v hrabství Midsomer je povážlivě rozhádaný už delší dobu. Na vině nejsou jen stavovské třenice, jejichž zdůrazňováním si Britové ztrpčují život, ale hlavně všelijaké aférky, pomluvy, rány pod pás a křivdy, které se v duších místních divadelníků vrší a vrší. Proto i jejich nastudování slavného dramatu Amadeus Petera Shaffera má směšně provinční úroveň – až do okamžiku, kdy se na jevišti odehraje nepředstíraný mord. Stačilo totiž, aby kdosi sundal izolepu z břitvy, jíž se v závěru holí zneuznaný Salieri, a samolibý první muž souboru a režisérův oblíbenec se sesune k zemi v kaluži opravdové krve, jako by ho sám osud ztrestal za levárny… Kdo ho má na svědomí? Caustonský šéfinspektor Tom Barnaby bude mít vyšetřování o to těžší, že zúčastněné osobně zná, neboť jeho žena jim vypomáhá s garderobou i v drobných rolích. A poněvadž autorka – považovaná za důstojnou nástupkyni Agathy Christie – před zločinem předložila též zevrubnou psychoanalýzu kompletního ansámblu podezřelých, je zaručeno, že v klubku zákulisních úkladů nebude ohledně pachatele jasno až do poslední scény.

Like Wolves on the Fold: The Defence of Rorke's Drift - Mike Snook
Wednesday 22 January 1879 was one of the most dramatic days in the annals of military history. In the morning, a modern British army was swept aside by the onset of a seemingly unstoppable host at Isandlwana. Nearby, at a remote border outpost on the Buffalo River, a single company of the 24th Regiment and a few dozen recuperating hospital patients were passing another hot, monotonous day. News of the disaster across the river came like a bolt from the blue. Retreat was not an option. It seemed certain that the Rorke's Drift detachment would share the terrible fate of their comrades. Colonel Snook brings the insights of a military professional to bear in this strikingly original account. It is an extraordinary tale - a victory largely achieved by the sheer bloody-mindedness in adversity of the British infantryman, fighting at the remarkable odds of over thirty to one. The heroics of all eleven VC winners are recounted in detail, and we are offered new insights into how the Zulu attack unfolded and how 150 men achieved their improbable victory.

Anatomy Of The Spirit - Caroline Myssová
Anatomy of the Spirit is the first book to unify Eastern and Western spiritual healing into a programme for physical healing and personal power. In this breakthrough view of mind, body and spirit, Caroline Myss demonstrates that the seven stages through which everyone must pass in the search for consciousness and spiritual maturity are the same in all traditions and are also the same seven stages for healing.During her many years of research into the power centres of the body, Myss has uncovered strong evidence that each illness we develop corresponds to a very specific pattern of emotional and psychological stress and that certain beliefs and attitudes influence corresponding areas of the human body. For example, fears regarding financial stress affect the health of the lower back; emotional barriers to experiencing love undermine the health of the heart. A strong need to control others or your environment influences the health of the sexual area of your body. Caroline also discusses in depth why people do not heal and the reasons why we often find ourselves in difficult circumstances that never seem to change.

The Bees - Carol Ann Duffy DBE
‘Swooningly glorious’ The Times‘Indisputably her best volume’ Sunday TimesThe Bees is Carol Ann Duffy’s first collection of poems as Poet Laureate. In it she uses her full poetic range: there are drinking songs, love poems, poems of political anger; there are elegies, too, for beloved friends, and – most movingly – the poet’s own mother. Woven and weaving through the book is its presiding spirit: the bee. Sometimes the bee is Duffy’s subject, sometimes it strays into the poem, or hovers at its edge. In the end, Duffy’s point is clear: the bee symbolizes what we have left of grace in the world, and what is most precious and necessary for us to protect. The Bees, at once intimate and public, is a work of great power from one of our most cherished poets.
