Marcia Willett

Nestled in the Devon countryside, the Keep has always been a refuge for the Chadwick family: forever warm and welcoming through the challenges life has thrown at them. And the current occupants have certainly seen their share of challenges... 
 
Lulu and her small son, Oliver, are staying at the Keep while they find their feet. Freddie's commission as a naval chaplain has just ended and he too is grateful to have been welcomed at the Keep whilst he decides where to go next. And now Ed, the black sheep of the family, is finally coming home after ten years living in the USA. 
 
Ed's strange, secretive behaviour means that he often clashes with his family. But as the autumn draws to a close and a sprinkling of snow dusts the moors, could the promise of a family Christmas at the Keep be enough to ease tensions and soothe the sting of a long-buried secret? 
 
The Chadwicks all know one thing for certain - no matter the circumstances, the Keep will always be there to welcome them home. 
 
Praise for Marcia Willett:

'A beautifully woven tale of families and their secrets...' Liz Fenwick, bestselling author of The Cornish House 
'Riveting, moving and utterly feel-good.' Daily Mail

Christmas at the Keep

A moving and uplifting festive novella to escape with at Christmas

Ben Elton

"This does indeed deserve comparisons with Blackadder" Radio Times 
 
"A knockabout, well-researched take on the working and domestic life of Shakespeare." The Guardian 
 
It’s the 1590s. William Shakespeare – brought to life on screen by the inimitable David Mitchell – is at the start of his career. But no one is taking him seriously. In London, he is mercilessly mocked by his rivals and at home in Stratford he is belittled by his sullen teenage daughter. 
 
Yet he is determined to find an ending for his newest creation Romeo and Juliet. Luckily, inspiration is forthcoming. The trials and tribulations of his closest friends and family reveal the plot twists he’d been missing. And not only for this famous tragedy but for many of his finest plays. 
 
With sparkling wordplay, hilarious gags and his trademark wit, Ben Elton celebrates the great William Shakespeare and reveals the startling stories behind the playwright’s best-known plays.

Jack Reacher

Rule 1. NEVER VOLUNTEER FOR ANYTHING 
Rule 2: BE ON YOUR FEET AND READY 
Rule 3. SHOW THEM WHAT THEY'RE MESSING WITH 
Rule 4: DON'T BREAK THE FURNITURE 
Rule 5: IF IN DOUBT, DRINK COFFEE

Reacher's Rules: Life Lessons From Jack Reacher

Charlene Allcott

'One of the freshest, funniest, most exciting new voices I've read for a long time.' Jane Fallon 
 
Meet Martha Ross. She dreams of being a singer, but she’s been working in a call centre for far too long. She’s separating from her husband, the father of her eighteen-month-old son. And she’s moving back home to her parents, toddler in tow. 
 
Life has thrown her a few lemons . . . but Martha intends to make a gin and tonic. 
 
It’s time to become the woman she’s always wanted to be. And at least her mum’s on hand to provide free childcare – along with ample motherly judgement, of course. 
 
But Martha’s attempts at reinvention – from writing a definitive, non-negotiable list of everything she’s looking for in a new man, to half-marathons, business plans and meditation retreats – tend to go awry in the most surprising of ways. And soon she comes to realise that in order to find lasting love, happiness and fulfilment, she needs to find herself first . . . 
 
Who said starting over was easy? 
 
A warm, vibrant and painfully funny novel that will strike a chord with anyone who’s ever had their heart broken, hasn’t quite got their sh*t together yet, or who finds themselves wide awake at 3am thinking, ‘How did I get here?’

The Reinvention of Martha Ross

Tim Sebastian

Upon his return to the West he discovers he has many enemies on both sides, both known and unknown, especially the real traitor.

Exit Berlin

Clare Reader Collins

Set against the backdrop of a magical land where unicorns graze, jabberwocks lurk in the rivers and mermaids swim in the ocean, a bard tells the captivating story of three unlikely heroes. 
 
A young girl, orphaned by a plague deadlier that the Black Death, who carries a cure in her veins; a woman of the forest, who may be the only one able to name the plague and protect the realm; and a prince, second born but destined to be king. 
 
Together, they are destined to save the kingdom. But first they have to find each other...
