"This compelling, slow-burn thriller is my first of Flood''s, and it won''t be my last" Good Housekeeping"A wonderful storyteller" Chris WhitakerThe big dark house at the top of the hill never felt like Evy''s.Erling''s parents insisted it be held in his name only, that their old furniture should remain in place after they were gone.And now Erling''s gone too. Her husband and her rock. A heart attack while riding his bike. No trace of his medications were found in his body, as if someone had tampered with them.Right now, Evy can''t be sure of anything. Her memory''s patchy, her focus blurred. Her grown-up children whisper about her like she can''t be trusted to look after herself.How can she tell them she doesn''t feel safe in the house? Doors left open she closed herself. Erling''s possessions no longer where he left them.Just because you''re paranoid doesn''t mean you''re not next.Praise for The Therapist"Creepy, compelling and very well written" Harriet Tyce"Wonderfully creepy, twisty and compelling" Karen HamiltonPraise for The Lover"Taut, clever and irresistible" Anna Bailey"An absolutely prime slice of Scandicrime" Financial TimesTranslated from the Norwegian by Alison McCullough

The Rebel Romanov - Rappaport Helen

'What a wonderful book! The storytelling, the research, the deep love of her subject -- this must be the climax of Rappaport's long and illustrious career' Lucy Worsley To Queen Victoria she was Aunt Julie; to Catherine the Great she was Grand Duchess Anna Feodorovna, granddaughter-in-law. This is the story of Princess Juliane-Henriette-Ulrike of Saxe-Coburg, the Rebel Romanov. Born in 1781 in a small impoverished duchy of Germany, Julie's quiet life took a fairy-tale turn when she married into the Russian Imperial Family - the Romanovs. But this world of baroque splendour, of opulent palaces and grandeur, was no happily ever after. Taken to Russia at just fourteen, her marriage was hastily brokered to save the Saxe-Coburg duchy from financial ruin. Her husband, Grand Duke Konstantin, was cruel and abusive, Julie was uprooted from her home, family, language and culture. As Russia and Europe were thrown into tumult by the murder of Emperor Paul and the rise of Napoleon, Julie finally made her escape back to Germany, where she lived for two decades as a social pariah, denied a divorce by the Imperial Family. Forced to give up two illegitimate children to protect her family's honour, she eventually built a ... Unknown localization key: "more"

In Search of the Argonauts - Helen Lovatt

Longlisted for the 2022 Runciman AwardFew classical stories are as exciting as that of Jason and the Golden Fleece. The legend of the boy, who discovers a new identity as son of a usurped king and leads a crew of demi-gods and famous heroes, has resonated through the ages, rumbling like the clashing rocks, which almost pulverised the Argo. The myth and its reception inspires endless engagements: while it tells of a quest to the ends of the earth, of the tyrants Pelias and Aetes, of dragons'' teeth, of the loss of Hylas (beloved of Hercules) stolen away by nymphs, and of Jason''s seduction of the powerful witch Medea (later betrayed for a more useful princess), it speaks to us of more: of gender and sexuality; of heroism and lost integrity; of powerful gods and terrifying monsters; of identity and otherness; of exploration and exploitation. The Argonauts are emblems of collective heroism, yet also of the emptiness of glory. From Pindar to J. W. Waterhouse, Apollonius of Rhodes to Ray Harryhausen, and Robert Graves to Mary Zimmerman, the Argonaut myth has produced later interpretations as rich, salty and complex as the ancient versions.

A Short History of the Reformation - Dr Helen L. Parish

When, in October 1517, Martin Luther pinned his Ninety-Five Theses to the door of All Saints'' Church in Wittenberg he shattered the foundations of western Christendom. The Reformation of doctrine and practice that followed Luther''s seismic action, and protest against the sale of indulgences, fragmented the Church and overturned previously accepted certainties and priorities. But it did more, challenging the relationship between spiritual and secular authority, perceptions of the supernatural, the interpretation of the past, the role of women in society and church, and clerical attitudes towards marriage and sex. Drawing on the most recent historiography, Helen L Parish locates the Protestant Reformation in its many cultural, social and political contexts. She assesses the Reformers'' impact on art and architecture; on notions of authority, scripture and tradition; and - reflecting on the extent to which the printing press helped spread Reformation ideas - on oral, print and written culture.

The Anatomical Venus - Helen Ivory

"An Anatomical Venus - which gives this book its title - was an 18th-century anatomical wax sculpture of an idealized woman, a heady mix of eroticism, death and biological verisimilitude. Venus could be opened up and pulled apart by all the men who studied her. She would give up her secrets the first time of asking. Helen Ivory''s new collection ''The Anatomical Venus'' examines how women have been portrayed as ''other''; as witches; as hysterics with wandering wombs and as beautiful corpses cast in wax, or on mortuary slabs in TV box sets. A hanged woman addresses the author of the ''Malleus Maleficarum,'' a woman diagnosed with ''Housewife Psychosis'' recounts her dreams to Freud, and a sex robot has the ear of her keeper. ''The Anatomical Venus'' imagines the lives of women sketched in asylum notes and pictures others shut inside cabinets of curiosity"--
