*** SHORTLISTED FOR HISTORICAL NOVEL OF THE YEAR at the FINGERPRINT AWARDS ***In the fourth rip-roaring thriller in the award-winning Malabar House series, Persis and Archie travel to the old colonial capital of Calcutta, where they collide head-on with the prejudices and bloody politics of an era engulfed in flame. ''Beautifully written and a fascinating insight into the turbulence of post independence India'' PETER MAY ''A sumptuous, brutal, heart-stopping thriller. Vaseem Khan writes with charm and wit, and an eye for detail that transports the reader entirely. I couldn''t love this series more'' CHRIS WHITAKER Can a white man receive justice in post-colonial India? Bombay, 1950 James Whitby, sentenced to death for the murder of prominent lawyer and former Quit India activist Fareed Mazumdar, is less than two weeks from a date with the gallows. In a last-ditch attempt to save his son, Whitby''s father, arch-colonialist, Charles Whitby, forces a new investigation into the killing. The investigation leads Inspector Persis Wadia of the Bombay Police to the old colonial capital of Calcutta, where, with the help of Scotland Yard criminalist Archie Blackfinch, she uncovers a possible link to a second case, the brutal murder of an African-American G.I. during the Calcutta Killings of 1946. How are the cases connected? If Whitby didn''t murder Mazumdar, then who did? And why? ''Post-partition India is subtle, intriguing and dynamic; the hero, Persis, is brave, intelligent and charming; the plot is complex and rewarding. I loved Death of a Lesser God'' GREG MOSSE ''Blends a grippingly modern plot with gritty and unvarnished history. A vibrant thriller about belonging - and who gets to decide who belongs. A superb book and his best yet'' WILLIAM SHAW Breathless and brilliant, Death of a Lesser God propels Persis Wadia into dangerous and deadly new territory. Highly recommended!'' D.V. BISHOP ''Crime fiction is a brilliant way of tackling social issues and, in Death of a Lesser God, Vaseem Khan delivers a masterclass in how it''s done. Full of tension and political conflict, Khan brilliantly weaves in history and a deft portrait of post-Raj life in Bombay and Calcutta. The result is an immensely rich book'' ALIS HAWKINS ''Tense, gripping and impressively plotted; Death of a Lesser God is historical fiction at its finest'' WILLIAM RYAN

It''s become the norm to remain solo until much later in life, given the average marriage ages of 35 (women) and 38 (men). Many of us are choosing never to marry at all. But society, films, song lyrics and our parents are adamant that a happy ending has to be couple-shaped. That we''re incomplete without an ''other half''*, like a bisected panto pony. Cue: single sorrow. Dating like it''s a job. Spending half our lives waiting for somebody-we-fancy to text us back. Feeling haunted by the terms ''spinster'' or ''confirmed bachelor.''Catherine Gray took a whole year off dating to find single satisfaction. She lifted the lid on the reasons behind the global single revolution, explored the bizarre ways cultures single-shame, detached from ''all the good ones are gone!'' panic and debunked the myth that married people are much happier.Let''s start the reverse brainwash, in order to locate - and luxuriate in - single happiness.

Precious Ramotswe learns valuable lessons about first impressions and forgiveness in this latest installment of the much-loved, best-selling No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series. At Botswana's No 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, Precious Ramotswe and Grace Makutsi are intrigued by the troubling dismissal of an employee at a thriving local business. The ladies proceed with investigations as they are inclined to do - with Mma Makutsi's customary vigour, and Mma Ramotswe's rather more subtle caution. Soon enough, interesting discoveries are made... marital subterfuge, undue influence and commercial chicanery! Clearly, there is more to this dismissal than at first imagined. While Mma Makutsi's focus, as self-appointed Principal Investigating Officer, is firmly on the case, Mma Ramotswe's attention is diverted by personal matters. Not only has her disgraced ex-husband reappeared in town, but she has stumbled on an unsettling family secret of her own - one that might threaten what she holds closest to her heart. As Precious contemplates this painful possibility, she must draw on her strength and compassion and confront The House of Unexpected Sisters. And for both Mma Makutsi and Mma Ramotswe, the wise words of their mentor Clovis Andersen - 'the needle swings in confusing ways' - have never been more prescient . . .

Je možné odvážit se za hranice každodenního života a zažít vyšší stavy vědomí? Překročte současná omezení a vstupte do nového stavu vědomí Deepak Chopra dokazuje, že vyšší vědomí je k dispozici "tady a teď". V knize METAČLOVĚK odhaluje tajemství, jak překročit současná omezení a využít náš nekonečný potenciál. Jak to udělat? Tím, že se staneme metačlověkem. Být metačlověkem však není sci-fi a rozhodně nejde o to stát se superhrdinou. Být metačlověkem znamená překonat omezení vytvořená myslí a vstoupit do nového stavu vědomí, kde máme promyšlený a skutečný přístup ke špičkovým zážitkům, které mohou úplně obrátit životy lidí naruby. Vydejte se na cestu "tady a teď" Lidé to dělají přirozeně - do určitého bodu. Po celá staletí velcí umělci, vědci, spisovatelé a další takzvaní obyčejní lidé překročili každodenní fyzický svět. Ale co by se stalo, kdybychom uměli tyto často ohromující zkušenosti nasměrovat? Chopra tvrdí, že bychom se otevřeli zážitkům, které by povznesly naše tělo, mysl a duši. METAČLOVĚK vyzývá čtenáře, aby se vydal na cestu "tady a teď". Probuzení, jak zjistíme, není jen o všímavosti nebo meditaci. Probuzení umožňuje dát životu smysl jako nikdy předtím. Probuzení, tj. stát se metačlověkem, znamená rozšířit naše vědomí ve všem, co si myslíme, říkáme a děláme. Tím, že jdeme dál, se osvobodíme od starých zvyků a všech myšlenkových konstrukcí, které jsou příčinou úzkosti, napětí a egem řízených požadavků. Probuzení umožňuje dát životu smysl jako nikdy předtím. Aby to bylo co nejpraktičtější, končí Chopra knihu 31denním průvodcem, jak se stát metačlověkem. Jakmile se probudíte, vše se promění, protože ve vašem životě nastane čisté vědomí - pole neomezených možností. Teprve potom se váš nekonečný potenciál stane vaší realitou.

Heal yourself from the inside out Our immune systems can no longer be taken for granted. Current trends in public healthcare are disturbing: our increased air travel allows newly mutated bacteria and viruses to spread across the globe, antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria outstrip the new drugs that are meant to fight them, deaths due to hospital-acquired infections are increasing, and the childhood vaccinations of our aging population are losing their effectiveness. Now more than ever, our well-being is at a dangerous crossroad. But there is hope, and the solution lies within ourselves. The Healing Self is the new breakthrough book in self-care by bestselling author and leader in integrative medicine Deepak Chopra and Harvard neuroscientist Rudolph E Tanzi. They argue that the brain possesses its own lymphatic system, meaning it is also tied into the body's general immune system. Based on this brand new discovery, they offer new ways of increasing the body's immune system by stimulating the brain and our genes, and through this they help us fight off illness and disease. Combined with new facts about the gut microbiome and lifestyle changes, diet and stress reduction, there is no doubt that this ground-breaking work will have an important effect on your immune system.
