Less a mystery unsolved than a secret well kept The mystery has haunted generations since the Second World War: Who betrayed Anne Frank and her family? And why? Now, thanks to radical new technology and the obsession of a retired FBI agent, this book offers an answer. Rosemary Sullivan unfolds the story in a gripping, moving narrative. Over thirty million people have read The Diary of a Young Girl, the journal teenaged Anne Frank kept while living in an attic with her family and four other people in Amsterdam during World War II, until the Nazis arrested them and sent them to a concentration camp. But despite the many works - journalism, books, plays and novels - devoted to Anne s story, none has ever conclusively explained how these eight people managed to live in hiding undetected for over two years - and who or what finally brought the Nazis to their door. With painstaking care, retired FBI agent Vincent Pankoke and a team of indefatigable investigators pored over tens of thousands of pages of documents - some never before seen - and interviewed scores of descendants of people familiar with the Franks. Utilising methods developed by the FBI, the Cold Case Team painstakingly pieced together the months leading to the infamous arrest - and came to a shocking conclusion. The Betrayal of Anne Frank: A Cold Case Investigation is the riveting story of their mission. Rosemary Sullivan introduces us to the investigators, explains the behaviour of both the captives and their captors and profiles a group of suspects. All the while, she vividly brings to life wartime Amsterdam: a place where no matter how wealthy, educated, or careful you were, you never knew whom you could trust.

No-one will protect what they don t care about. Sir David Attenborough. Baxter has everything a rabbit needs to be happy and healthy, except for some friends to play with. So Pollie, his owner, brings two rabbits home to stay, but will they be well-behaved, friendly and caring, or will they get up to mischief, be unkind and bully him? What could happen to make them change? And what will they, and Pollie, teach us about saving the planet along the way? In this unique book, each chapter in the story has an environmental education issue woven into it, and then a set of questions which explores these issues further. Some of these issues include what animals need from their environment to survive and how we, as humans, are stopping them from obtaining these, and the need for clean water. It teaches children practical ways to care for animals and the planet, but also goes one step further and teaches us why we should care. The last chapter looks at treating each other well, caring for each other and working together, which are often overlooked aspects of environmental education. This gives this book a fresh approach to environmental education and saving the planet.

â ˜A thought-provoking read.â ™ -- Financial Times Everybody in finance and wealth management should read this book â “ as soon as possible. -- Alec Marsh, Spear s MagazineAn insider s look into how Generation Z s focus on ethics, climate change and purpose will change capitalism forever.In the next ten years there will be an unprecedented wealth transfer from the so-called â ˜baby boomerâ ™ generation to the young. Never before will so much money â “ in housing, land, stocks and cash â “ be shifted so suddenly from one generation to the next, and never before does the next generation feel so differently about the future of the planet.As an investor in this new generation Ken Costa shows how environmental concerns and anxiety about equality and diversity are more than mere slogans; they are driving the future of the markets. So many issues stem from the financial gap between age groups â “ from cancel culture and fears about wokeness, to Generation Rent, protest movements and re-evaluations of history around subjects such as empire. Costa shows how we can build a more inclusive, purposeful capitalism, shifting focus away from the individual and more towards collaboration, compassion and community.This book shows us what the future of capitalism looks like, and demonstrates how boomers must work with the inspiring young, who see their mission not just to increase value for shareholders, but also to save the planet.

The Early Anglo-Saxon Kings takes a new look at the adventus Saxonum, the arrival of the Saxons, recorded in the earliest literary sources. As the Roman provincial structure fragmented, new cultural identities emerged. In fifth century Britain whatever sense of pax Romana remained gave way to a war-band culture which dominated both Brythonic and Germanic peoples. Villas left abandoned were replaced by the mead-hall. These halls now rang with the songs and poems of bards and scops. Tales of famous battles such as mons Badonicus and Cattraeth filled the air. Out of the ashes of the former Roman diocese new kingdoms emerged. One major factor was the settlement of significant numbers of Germanic peoples in Britain in the fifth and sixth centuries. The first kings of these peoples are shrouded in legends and myth, such as the leaders of the first group of mercenaries, Hengest and Horsa, as well as Ælle of the South Saxons, Cerdic and Cynric and later Ceawlin of Wessex. The book takes the reader from the early-fifth century through to the mid-seventh century and the death of the last great pagan Anglo-Saxon king, Penda of Mercia. An entertaining journey across the landscape of Britain in search of battle-sites and burial-mounds, this book brings to life the world that produced Y Gododdin and Beowulf; a world that saw warlords and kings carve out new kingdoms from the carcass of post-Roman Britain.

Orlando Figes The Whisperers is a groundbreaking account of daily life in the chaotic and paranoid atmosphere of Stalinist Russia. Exploring the inner life of a Russia where everyone was afraid to talk and society spoke in whispers, whether to protect friends and family - or to betray them - Orlando Figes tells the story of how Russians tried to endure life under Stalin s Terror. Where a junior worker might inform on their superior to get their job; a husband to get rid of a lover; a neighbour out of petty jealousy. Where living a double life became the norm and yet, somehow, a few defied the state. Those who shaped the political system became, very frequently, its victims. Those who were its victims were frequently quite blameless. Drawing on hundreds of family archives from across the whole spectrum of Russian society, The Whisperers recreates the sort of maze in which Russians found themselves, where an unwitting wrong turn could either destroy a family or, perversely, later save it: a society in which everyone spoke in whispers - whether to protect themselves, their families, neighbours or friends - or to inform on them. Wonderful ... an amazing panoramic view ... I ve rarely read anything like it Claire Tomalin Awesome ... one of the most unforgettable books I have ever read. I defy anyone to read it without weeping at its human suffering, cruelty and courage Simon Sebag Montefiore, Mail on Sunday This is a heart-rending book ... its importance cannot be overestimated ... This book should be made compulsory reading in Russia today Antony Beevor, author Of Stalingrad A masterful account of lost and stolen lives Sunday Times Orlando Figes is Professor of History at Birkbeck College, University of London. He is the author of Peasant Russia, Civil War, A Peoples Tragedy, Natasha s Dance and The Whisperers. He lives in Cambridge and London. His books have been translated into over twenty languages.
