Trust No One: A Thriller – A Treacherous Hunt Across Europe to Unlock the Secret to Immortality
From the #1 New York Times bestselling master of international intrigue comes a shocking new stand-alone thriller that thrusts a group of university students, falsely accused of murder, into a treacherous hunt across Europe, all to unlock the secrets buried within a centuries-old book that could change humankind forever.
Knowledge can be magic—until it falls into the wrong hands.
The ritualistic murder of a British professor at the University of Exeter points to a startling cast of suspects: his own students. All are enrolled in a postgraduate program covering the history of witchcraft, folklore, and spiritualism.
All evidence points to Sharyn Karr—an American student. Prior to the professor’s death, he had thrust a centuries-old book upon her. It appears to be the handwritten and encrypted diary of an eighteenth-century mystic and occultist, the Comte de Saint-Germain. The professor begged her to keep the text safe, ending with a warning: Trust no one.
Such a responsibility forces her into cooperation with Duncan Maxwell, a fellow postgrad and the sixteenth in line to the British Crown. Already, Duncan has proven himself a savant with encryptions. Unfortunately, the pair clash at every level, but they both need one another. Especially when they discover the book’s opening words: Herein lies the secret to my immortality. Come find me, if you dare.
As dark forces close upon the pair, she and her friends are forced to flee, pursued by law enforcement and hunted by a powerful cabal. In an explosive chase across Europe—from the Tower of London to Parisian chateaus to a fortress in the Italian Alps—Sharyn must learn the true secret hidden in Saint-Germain’s text. It will send her and the others across history and deep into the heart of one of the world’s greatest mysteries, a secret buried at the roots of Western Civilization, a discovery that could topple empires and change humanity forever.
For what lies at the end of Saint-Germain’s diary is as shocking as its opening words.

THE BLACK WEREWOLF OF DETROIT
An Urban Horror Novel
by Allison WoodsBy day, it walks like a man.
By night, it hunts the city.In the alleys behind abandoned buildings, beneath flickering streetlights and the hum of the city, something has been hunting—quietly, patiently, without mercy. People go missing. Sirens come too late. And the city keeps breathing.
Michael comes to Detroit with simple plans: to see his sister, to find work, to start over. He expects a hard city, not a hostile one. He doesn’t expect the fear that seems to cling to certain streets—or the stories no one tells out loud.
Michael never believed in monsters.
Not until one of them looked back at him.As brutal killings begin to surface and Detroit’s streets close in, the line between man and predator starts to blur. The city feels alive, watching, waiting—and the moon is watching him now.
Some horrors aren’t born in the dark.
They’re made there.
And survival demands a price.Gritty, brutal, and unflinchingly atmospheric, THE BLACK WEREWOLF OF DETROIT reimagines werewolf horror for the modern city—where monsters don’t lurk in forests, but in forgotten corners of concrete and steel.
This is not a story about heroes.
This is a story about what the city turns you into.Perfect for fans of:
- Urban horror with a dark psychological edge
- Werewolf stories grounded in realism
- Gritty, atmospheric novels where the city is a character
- Readers who enjoy horror that lingers long after the final page

When the motorway became a graveyard, Birchanger Services was supposed to be safe.
Daniel Kerr reaches the M11 services at Bishop’s Stortford with Ellie Hales, two children, and police commander Rachel Doyle. The infection has not arrived yet. People are still eating. Still arguing. Still pretending the world outside can be outrun.
They are wrong.
When the infected reach the services, survival becomes brutal and intimate. Ammunition is scarce. Weapons are improvised. Death comes at arm’s length. As Kerr helps secure the building, a darker truth emerges. One of the dead was never infected.
Someone inside is killing.
What begins as a desperate stand against the undead turns into a nightmare of paranoia and violence as Kerr and Doyle hunt a murderer hiding among the survivors. When the wrong man is accused, the real killer reveals himself in the most terrifying way possible, triggering a hostage situation that collapses the last illusion of safety.
As the services are overrun and the infected pour inside, an unexpected figure intervenes. Corporal Jack Harker, a soldier who survived the collapse of the motorway, appears without warning and buys the group a chance to escape.
But survival has a cost.
Set during a single night of bloodshed and moral collapse, Trojan Six: Part Five is a relentless post-apocalyptic thriller that blends zombie horror, siege survival, and psychological tension. This is not a story about heroes. It is about who people become when the rules are gone.
Perfect for fans of gritty zombie fiction, British apocalypse settings, and fast-paced survival horror.

Top Shelf: A MM Hockey Romance (Storm Warning Book 3)
Anyone can fall in love. Pickle makes it unforgettable.
Thunder Bay’s favorite chaos gremlin, Noah “Pickle” Piatkowski, is no longer the rookie, but he hasn’t lost an ounce of his wild energy. He’s fast, he’s fearless, and he’s still the guy who shows up late to practice because he got his hand stuck in a Pringles can again. Fans adore him. His teammates have stopped asking questions.
When the Storm gathers at The Drop to watch Hog’s partner, Rhett, land a deal on Shark Tank, Pickle’s world begins to tilt.
Enter Adrian Richter, thirty-four, a polished, quietly intense documentary filmmaker sent the day after the show by a streaming network sensing a story —sharp-eyed and no-nonsense. He’s come looking for an authentic slice of small-town hockey life…and instead he finds Pickle, standing in the parking lot of The Drop in Crocs, holding a broken karaoke microphone, and trying to teach Hog’s dog how to howl along to “Total Eclipse of the Heart.”
Adrian is thunderstruck. Not just by Pickle’s ridiculousness—but by the heat beneath the chaos. The tenderness tucked behind the jokes. The way Pickle lights up a room without even meaning to.
Pickle, for his part, has no idea what to do when someone hot, grown, and deeply competent looks at him like he’s more than the team’s comic relief. Every instinct tells him to deflect with humor, to hide behind being “the funny one,” to pretend he doesn’t care about the idea that someone might—finally—take him seriously. Letting Adrian see the version of himself he’s been protecting? That’s terrifying. That’s impossible. That’s starting to feel inevitable.
When the production company decides Pickle makes better footage as a joke than a person, Adrian faces his own choice: protect the project that was supposed to rebuild his stalled career, or protect the man who’s stolen his heart.
An opposites attract small-town hockey romance, with a guaranteed happily ever after.
A storm is coming to Thunder Bay.
Turns out, it’s love.Read more

He’s my viramore. My soulmate.
Too bad I can barely string two words together in his presence.
When I finally tell him about our connection, he doesn’t believe me. But he does agree to a date. Hopefully I can turn one date into two, then three, and then maybe, just maybe, he’ll see that I’m right. We’re viramores, and no matter what trouble comes our way, nothing will change that.

So when she meets Gideon Maddox, she cannot believe a man as powerful, handsome, and wealthy as him would ever look at her twice, let alone ask her to marry him and have his baby.
After three years of trying, the test finally reads pregnant, and she’s overjoyed…but before she can tell him about their Christmas miracle, her joy quickly turns to sorrow when her husband reveals that he only married her for convenience.
Shattered, Kendra carries her precious secret into the cold, winter’s night, never expecting the man who broke her heart to care enough to find her.

But cold, hard cash doesn’t keep him warm or produce an heir, so he marries the sweet, naïve, and utterly guileless Kendra.
To him it’s a marriage of convenience, so when she fails to produce an heir, and his dealings with the Mafia turn sour, he does something truly terrible.
And when Kendra runs, taking a precious Christmas gift with her, Gideon realizes something far more important than all his power and wealth has slipped through his fingers.

Am I Normal?: Understanding your place in a complex world
‘The world can feel a hard place at times, who hasn’t asked themselves ‘Is it me?’ How wonderfully reassuring to have Dr Alex ask those same questions with his trademark warmth and honesty. A must read for everyone trying their best at life.’ DR JULIE SMITH‘This is the story of all of the ways in which I didn’t fit in and of all the things I would rather change about the world, than myself.’
How many of us have at some time wondered ‘Am I Normal?’ And yet, our society is set up in such a way that there is very little room for difference or quirks or for us to question what normal really is.
In this powerful, honest, and ultimately comforting book, mental fitness advocate and former A&E doctor Dr Alex George explores what it means to be “normal” in a society that often fails to embrace any kind of straying from the accepted path laid out by the expectations of others.
After years spent trying to fit the mould of what others expected of him, Alex’s ADHD diagnosis became a turning point – not just in understanding himself, or helping him navigate the highs and lows he had experienced in childhood, whilst working in A&E and after the devastating loss of his brother, but in challenging the systems and society that marginalise so many.
This is a book that will give hope to anyone who has ever felt different and help you realise that your version of your normal is enough.

Lightbringer
Nobody knows why the war began.
But I have always known how it will end.Lyra Vaelion has spent her life in brutal training beneath the harsh suns of Solvandyr. As the hidden youngest daughter of the militant Lightbringer commander, she has always known what her future would be – to infiltrate the Darkwielder territory, Umbraxis, and kill their beloved heir.
She will not fail her people.
Darkwielder prince Kaelen Duskbane is fighting a war on endless fronts, and he’s tired. His fearless healer partner, Eres, insists on risking his safety at every turn while his silver-tongued rival, Darian, sows discord within the Royal Council and questions every decision he makes.
When an injured Lyra is discovered and saved by Eres, she finds herself face-to-face with the male she’s destined to destroy. But the Darkwielders are not what she expected. As time passes and hatred turns to heat, Lyra learns that light can blind as easily as it guides, and that the darkness she’s been raised to hate might be a shelter instead of the storm.
But one way or another, the war between the Lightbringers and the Darkwielders must end.
And Lyra stands in the middle.
This is a MMMF fantasy romance standalone, from the author of Stars Above the Never Sea.

Alone in Japan: A Journey to the Future
From the acclaimed writer and journalist, a vivid and wide-ranging portrait of love, sex and loneliness in contemporary Japan
No sex. No kids. No future?
When Tom Feiling moved to Tokyo as a student in the early nineties, Japan was a beacon of the future: a rising superpower, a technology giant, and a global symbol of prosperity, civility and success. When he returned twenty-four years later, the country was still a sign of things to come – but, he began to realize, it was no longer a beacon. It was a warning.
This book offers a unique portrait of life in contemporary Japan, from the quiet of its furthest flung villages to the dynamism of its megacities. It tells the story of how, from the mid-seventies onwards, Japanese society unknowingly embarked on a vast, silent process of transformation that is still unfolding today. The country is still peaceful; it is still prosperous. But the population is shrinking. As things stand, it will fall by a third with each new generation.
Travelling through shrines and bars, rice fields and mango farms, coffee shops and old peoples’ homes, Feiling meets those affected by, and driving, this transformation. Through countless interviews and extensive research, he weaves together a powerful account of how and why men and women are ceasing to pair off and have kids. He reveals how sexual appetites and behaviours are both shaped by, and reshaping the evolving economy, and considers the risks – and the opportunities – of the rise in solo living in Japan, and beyond.
Clear-sighted and surprising, Alone in Japan is a portrait of love, sex and death in contemporary Japan that should provoke and engage us all. It is an electrifying portrait of a nation on the brink by one of the most original reporters working today.

The Future of Fraud (The FUTURES Series)
Fraud is BIG business – in this latest edition to the FUTURES series, find out the new (and old) ways fraudsters are targeting us, what future technological threats await, and how we can protect ourselves.
Humans have been ripping each other off since they first discovered the concept of lying but in 300 BC, the first ever official record of a fraud case was made. A merchant in Greece took out an insurance policy, borrowed money and planned to sink his boat. Unfortunately for him, things did not go according to plan. Since then, fraud has become more complex and harder to detect, as technology has evolved. So how can we protect ourselves now and in the future, and what new dangers do we need to be looking out for?
Deeply researched and littered with expert testimony, The Future of Fraud will explore interesting fraud cases past and present, and expose how the technology we depend upon today is also perfectly poised to exploit us: from social media, the dark web and gaming, to cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence. And as well as parting us from our money, fraud is eroding the trust between humans and the state, and between each other.
The only way to tackle the fraud epidemic, argues Holmes, is head on, via education, language, technology and regulation. We need everyone to understand the dangers and have protections in place to stop the bad guys. Are we fighting a losing battle, or can we make the future a safer place for everyone?

Into the Heart of Middle-Earth: Exploring Faith and Fellowship in J. R. R. Tolkien’s the Lord of the Rings
Are you quite ready for a new adventure?
Into the Heart of Middle-earth is a spiritual companion to The Lord of the Rings–an invitation to journey through J. R. R. Tolkien’s epic tale with fresh eyes and a faithful heart. Written by Kaitlyn Facista, creator of the beloved Tea with Tolkien community, this book guides readers through Frodo and Sam’s perilous quest, revealing the practical and spiritual treasures hidden beneath the leaves of Lothlórien and along the weary miles of the road, and illuminating the eternal truths that give life and meaning to their journey.
Drawing from years of study and Tolkien’s own letters, Facista has helped thousands of readers explore the Catholic heart of Middle-earth. Like the Fellowship of the Ring itself, this book offers companionship for the road ahead–whether you’re visiting Middle-earth for the first time or returning as a seasoned traveler.
Few stories have captured the imagination quite like Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings–a timeless tale of courage, fellowship, and hope. From the green hills of the Shire to the shadowy fires of Mount Doom, generations of readers have felt the mysterious pull of something greater at work in Middle-earth. Tolkien himself spoke of “that one ever-present Person who is never absent and never named”–a divine providence so seamlessly woven into his narrative that readers of every background sense its power.
Though Tolkien did not write The Lord of the Rings as a Christian allegory, his Catholic faith provided a foundation–shaping a world rich with spiritual truth and moral beauty. Great stories like this do more than entertain–they awaken us. They help us discover deeper meaning and purpose in our own lives.
With Facista as your guide, journey alongside heroes of every kind–hobbits and kings, shieldmaidens and wizards–as you explore
- the values and themes that make Middle-earth a deeply human–and profoundly Christian–story world;
- the habits of excellence that drive Tolkien’s characters toward virtue;
- spiritual insights from saints and biblical figures who influenced Tolkien, such as St. Thérèse of Lisieux’s “Little Way” and the hospitality of St. Benedict;
- practical ways to weave the lessons of the Fellowship into your own life, strengthening your soul for the long road of faith.
Throughout the journey, you’ll discover how fellowship, humility, and hope are embodied in heroes both great and small–from Sam’s steadfast loyalty and Éowyn’s bold courage to Aragorn’s sacrificial kingship–and how these same virtues can shape your own path.
Join the adventure. Let Tolkien’s world transform the way you see your own–and return from the journey altogether changed.

The Book of Birds: A Field Guide to Wonder and Loss
From the creators of the internationally bestselling, award-winning, multi-adapted phenomenon The Lost Words: a dazzling celebration of birdlife in Britain, re-imagining the classic field guide for a new generation of nature lovers
A great thinning of the skies is underway. Around 50% of bird species are in decline worldwide. Our dawns and springs are quieter each year than the last. An almost unimaginable abundance has been lost. It does not have to be this way –– but we will not save what we do not love.
The Book of Birds is a compendium of forty-nine bird species, from Avocet to Yellowhammer, all of which are declining or endangered in Britain. Inspired by the classic bird-books with which the authors grew up, this is a field guide with a difference. It asks not ‘What is that bird?’, but ‘Who is that bird?’ It shows its readers how to identify birds, but also how to identify with them.
With lyrical precision and playfulness, Robert Macfarlane evokes each bird’s habits and habitats –– their patterns of flight and of song, how they hunt and gather, how they nest and raise their young, the stories and myths which attend them, the threats which shadow them, and how their wild lives intersect with our own. And on every page we encounter Jackie Morris’s exhilarating artwork, painted in watercolour and gold and animated by an extraordinary attention to detail and sense of life. Set among this dazzling flock of species are seven sections celebrating the ‘Seven Wonders’ that together make up the everyday miracle of ‘Bird’: Nest, Egg, Beak, Song, Feather, Flight and Migration.
Seven years in the making, The Book of Birds is a love letter to the splendours and mysteries of birdlife, and a clarion call to halt the loss of birds from land, sea and sky. From Dipper to Dunnock and Kestrel to Kingfisher, from mountain to ocean and city to river, Jackie Morris and Robert Macfarlane conjure the unique spirit and lifeway of each species. This is a book to be treasured by bird-lovers of all ages, and a future classic work of reference.

Kill Dick
ACCLAIMED AUTHOR OF FOURTEEN STORIES, NONE OF THEM ARE YOURS, CO-WRITER OF EILEEN
RECIPIENT OF PRESTIGIOUS RONALD SUKENICK INNOVATIVE FICTION PRIZE AND JOAN SCOTT MEMORIAL FICTION AWARD
“If this book were any better I’d cut my own head off.”–Ottessa Moshfegh
“Kill Dick is a fever dream.”–Harriet Armstrong, author of To Rest Our Minds and Bodies
A fever dream, Kill Dick is a literary thriller that plunges into the chaos of Los Angeles where addiction, privilege, and corruption combust.
At nineteen, Susie Vogelman should be coasting: she’s an NYU dropout with no responsibilities, endless prescription pills, and a Brentwood estate to waste away in. But Los Angeles has other plans. A string of brutal murders targeting addicts spreads through the city, and Susie’s ivory tower begins to crumble. The headlines point too close to home: her father’s ties to an opioid empire, a sinister secret society, and her own complicity in the systems holding it all together.
Then there’s Peter Holiday, a disgraced professor running a rehab scam so audacious it’s almost admirable. When their lives collide, Susie and Peter are dragged into a web of privilege, corruption, and violence, where every escape leads deeper into the rot.
Dark, satirical, and razor-sharp, Kill Dick is a modern literary thriller that unflinchingly dissects wealth, exploitation, and the perilous line between survival and self-destruction.

You’re Going to Be OK: (Because You’re F*cked No Matter What)
Social media sensation Darby Hudson offers this collection of encouraging and humorous reflections to encourage others to continue expressing themselves, no matter what.You’re Going to Be OK is a book on art, jobs, magic and muddling through. These hand-typed fragments were gathered by the train tracks at night over ten years, after author Darby Hudson worked meaningless jobs, trying to make sense of a strange world that insisted it was “perfectly normal.” The observations in You’re Going to Be OK are little fragments of collected wisdom that sit somewhere between poetry, comedy and aphorism. With sixty new poems, this updated edition includes even more of Hudson’s reflections to enjoy.

Am I Normal?: Understanding your place in a complex world (Audio Download): Dr Alex George, Dr Alex George, Aster: Amazon.co.uk: Books
‘The world can feel a hard place at times, who hasn’t asked themselves ‘Is it me?’ How wonderfully reassuring to have Dr Alex ask those same questions with his trademark warmth and honesty. A must read for everyone trying their best at life.’ DR JULIE SMITH‘This is the story of all of the ways in which I didn’t fit in and of all the things I would rather change about the world, than myself.’
How many of us have at some time wondered ‘Am I Normal?’ And yet, our society is set up in such a way that there is very little room for difference or quirks or for us to question what normal really is.
In this powerful, honest, and ultimately comforting book, mental fitness advocate and former A&E doctor Dr Alex George explores what it means to be “normal” in a society that often fails to embrace any kind of straying from the accepted path laid out by the expectations of others.
After years spent trying to fit the mould of what others expected of him, Alex’s ADHD diagnosis became a turning point – not just in understanding himself, or helping him navigate the highs and lows he had experienced in childhood, whilst working in A&E and after the devastating loss of his brother, but in challenging the systems and society that marginalise so many.
This is a book that will give hope to anyone who has ever felt different and help you realise that your version of your normal is enough.

He’s seen death coming… but can it be stopped?
When a shadowy figure turns up late one night at the house of police adviser-cum-stage magic expert Mara Knight, Mara and her assistant Clare Deyes know instantly that something is very wrong.
The woman has come to Mara and Clare for help. She claims her young son, Tayte, has begun having a series of extraordinary visions of the future. And that these visions only started after his recent cornea transplant.
In addition, the woman says she has proof that Tayte’s incredible predictions have started coming true. And more worrying still is his claim that – in less than a week’s time – Tayte is certain that a man will kill him.
Can Mara and Clare together uncover the truth behind Tayte’s alarming visions before his final prophecy is fulfilled… with deadly consequences?
