The Sunday Times No. 1 bestseller!

The highly anticipated new thriller from internationally bestselling author Karin Slaughter, featuring

Will Trent and Sara Linton.

It begins with an abduction. The routine of a family shopping trip is shattered when Michelle Spivey

is snatched as she leaves the mall with her young daughter. The police search for her, her partner

pleads for her release, but in the end…they find nothing. It’s as if she disappeared into thin air.

A month later, on a sleepy Sunday afternoon, medical examiner Sara Linton is at lunch with her

boyfriend Will Trent, an agent with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. But the serenity of the

summer’s day is broken by the wail of sirens.

Sara and Will are trained to help in an emergency. Their jobs – their vocations – mean that they

run towards a crisis, not away from it. But on this one terrible day that instinct betrays them both.

Within hours the situation has spiralled out of control; Sara is taken prisoner; Will is forced

undercover. And the fallout will lead them into the Appalachian mountains, to the terrible truth

about what really happened to Michelle, and to a remote compound where a radical group has

murder in mind…

New York Times bestselling author Gregory Funaro brings us into a world where magic exists,

monsters roam in the shadows, and wooden animals come to life.

Deep within the enchanted woods in the town of Watch Hollow stands the once-grand Blackford

House, whose halls hold a magical secret: a giant cuckoo clock that does much more than tell time.

But when the clock’s gears cease to turn, an evil presence lurking among the trees begins to come

out of the shadows.

When Lucy and Oliver Tinker arrive in Watch Hollow, they have no idea that anything is wrong. A

mysterious stranger has made their father an offer that’s too good for him to refuse. All Mr. Tinker

needs to do is fix the clock at Blackford House and fistfuls of gold coins are his to keep.

It doesn’t take long, however, for the children to realize that there is more to Blackford House than

meets the eye. And before they can entirely understand the strange world they’ve stumbled into, Lucy

and Oliver must join forces with a host of magical clock animals to defeat the Garr—a vicious monster

that not only wants Blackford House for itself, but also seeks to destroy everything the Tinkers hold

dear.

Unknown Valor

Martha MacCallum

£20.00

When news came over the radio in a Boston diner on December 7, 1941 that America had been

attacked, people abandoned their food and ran out without paying. Gathering their children, still

dressed in Sunday church clothes, they left hot chocolate on the tables and waitresses in a daze.

They didn’t know what they needed to do, but they knew where they needed to be: at home.

Martha MacCallum’s mother was a child in that diner that day, and her thoughts went to her teenage

cousin Harry, who was just the right age to go to war. In Unknown Valor, MacCallum follows Harry

from Boston to bloody battle on Sulphur Island. She follows her mother’s family on the homefront from

just before the war to the days after they got the telegram they dreaded.

The book also reveals both sides of the war at the top, as the relentless and foolish Hirohito sacrificed

his nation’s future for nothing, and the United States slowly drove them back across the Pacific until

they surrendered. Meticulously researched, by turns heart-wrenching and enlightening, Unknown Valour

will remind you of how much every citzen has sacrificed, a lesson that seems further away every day.

betraying Los Nefilim, or saving their son’s life.

Miquel promises to decode the notebook filled with the names of Los Nefilim’s spies if Jordi will spare

for a bomb, one that will destroy Jordi’s black site along with the Watchers, and he intends to

detonate it.

secrets, rumours and tight-lipped expectations of a woman’s place. More than anyone, the town folk

A tense, provocative and nuanced novel about a rape accusation in an idyllic commune.

I was in my sixth month when the girl came knocking.

The girl came empty handed. On the threshold, her hair down, her jeans tight.

'Are you the professor’s wife?' the girl asked me. 'I have to speak to you,' she said.

'The professor raped me,' the girl said.

DI FRANK FARRELL (1) – DEAD MAN’S

PRAYERJackie Baldwin

‘Gripping … a compelling and authentic page-turner’ Sunday Mail

‘A must read!’ Reader review

‘A sparkling debut!’ Reader review

The first in an exciting new Scottish crime thriller series. Perfect for fans of L J Ross, Val

McDermid and Ann Cleeves.

Ex-priest DI Frank Farrell has returned to his roots in Dumfries, only to be landed with a disturbing

murder case. Even worse, Farrell knows the victim: Father Boyd, the man who forced him out of

the priesthood eighteen years earlier.

With no leads, Farrell must delve into the old priest’s past, one that is inexorably linked with his

own. But his attention is diverted when a pair of twin boys go missing. The Dumfries police force

recover one in an abandoned church, unharmed. But where is his brother?

As Farrell investigates the two cases, he can’t help but feel targeted. Is someone playing a sinister

game, or is he seeing patterns that don’t exist? Either way, it’s a game Farrell needs to win before

he loses his grip on his sanity, or someone else turns up dead.

THE HOT HAND

Ben CohenFor fans of Charles Duhigg and Nate Silver, a brilliant and buoyant investigation into the existence

(or not) of streaks, from a rising star at the Wall Street Journal.

For decades, psychologists and economists have studied the science of streaks to determine

whether the ‘hot hand’ exists. Is there such a thing as being in the zone? Or it simply a case of

seeing patterns in randomness? Genius scholars and Nobel Prize winners have dedicated years to

answering this question. A substantial number of the decisions we make each day are rooted in

two opposing beliefs: that if something happened before, it will happen again – or if it happened

before, it probably won’t happen again.

The Hot Hand is an incredibly entertaining and provocative investigation into the seductive idea

that streaks not only exist but can be created. Every day we look for patterns in coincidence, and

coincidence in patterns. Is there a hidden logic that defies our basic understanding of probability? If

we recognize someone has a hot hand, can we adjust to take advantage? If we mistakenly

assume they have the hot hand, what are the costs? What happens when we’re wrong – and what

happens when maybe we were right all along?

To answer these questions, Ben Cohen embarks on a kaleidoscopic investigation that ranges from

the magical night that forever changed NBA’s superstar Stephen Curry’s life to a billionaire investor

who made a fortune betting against streaks; the mystery of a missing World War II hero to the

authentication of a lost Van Gogh painting; how Shakespeare’s success was abetted by a flea to

how Spotify had to make its shuffle feature less random to feel more random.

The Hot Hand takes us to the jungles of the Amazon, a sugar-beet farm in the northern United

States, and strip mall arcades to show us how recognition of patterns can be both fruitful – and

disastrous.

I WANT YOU TO KNOW WE’RE STILL HERE

Esther Safran Foer

A moving and powerful inter-generational memoir about story and memory.

Mine is a family of readers and writers. Our house is filled with books. There are contemporary

design books on the coffee table in the living room, legal books in my husband’s home office, and

piles of children’s books for when my grandchildren visit. However, the side table next to my bed is

piled with books about the Holocaust. Framed maps of shtetls line my office walls and pictures of

relatives killed in the Holocaust are displayed on our family gallery walls.

Sometimes I feel like I exist across two polarized realities, experiencing great fulfillment from

family, friends, and a meaningful career, and, at the same time, finding the joy of my life tempered

by its shadows. In the darker corners of my mind live ghosts and demons who visit me from the

shtetls in Ukraine where my family came from. Some of the details that make these visions so vivid

are imagined because I grew up in a family where memories were too terrible to speak of.

This is the true story of four generations who have been dealing with the Holocaust and its

aftermath. We are four generations, survivors and survivors of survivors, storytellers and memory

keepers.

And we’re still here.

EXTRAORDINARY INSECTS

Anne Sverdrup-Thygeson

A journey into the weird, wonderful and truly astonishing lives of the small but mighty creatures

who keep the world turning.

Out of sight, underfoot, unseen beyond fleeting scuttles or darting flights, insects occupy a hidden

world, yet are essential to sustaining life on earth.

Insects influence our ecosystem like a ripple effect on water. They arrived when life first moved to

dry land, they preceded – and survived – the dinosaurs, they outnumber the grains of sand on all

the world’s beaches, and they will be here long after us.

Working quietly but tirelessly, they give us food, uphold our ecosystems, can heal our wounds and

even digest plastic. They could also provide us with new solutions to the antibiotics crisis, assist in

disaster zones and inspire airforce engineers with their flying techniques.

But their private lives are also full of fun, intrigue and wonder –musical mating rituals; house-

hunting for armies of beetle babies; metamorphosing into new characters; throwing parties in

fermenting sap; cultivating fungi for food; farming smaller species for honey dew and always

ensuring that what is dead is decomposed, ready to become life once again.

Here, we will discover life and death, drama and dreams, all on a millimetric scale. Like it or not,

Earth is the planet of insects, and this is their extraordinary story.

THE MAKING OF POETRY

Adam Nicolson

SHORTLISTED FOR THE COSTA BIOGRAPHY AWARD 2019

Wordsworth and Coleridge as you’ve never seen them before in this new book by Adam Nicolson,

brimming with poetry, art and nature writing. Proof that poetry can change the world.

It is the most famous year in English poetry. Out of it came The Ancient Mariner and ‘Kubla Khan’,

as well as Coleridge’s unmatched hymns to friendship and fatherhood, Wordsworth’s revolutionary

verses in Lyrical Ballads and the greatness of ‘Tintern Abbey’, his paean to the unity of soul and

cosmos, love and understanding.

Bestselling and award-winning writer Adam Nicolson tells the story, almost day by day, of the year

in the late 1790s that Coleridge, Wordsworth, his sister Dorothy and an ever-shifting cast of

friends, dependants and acolytes spent together in the Quantock Hills in Somerset.

To a degree never shown before, The Making of Poetry explores the idea that these poems came

from this place, and that only by experiencing the physical circumstances of the year, in all

weathers and all seasons, at night and at dawn, in sunlit reverie and moonlit walks, can the

genesis of the poetry start to be understood.

What emerges is a portrait of these great figures as young people, troubled, ambitious, dreaming

of a vision of wholeness, knowing they had greatness in them but still in urgent search of the paths

towards it.

The poetry they made was not from settled conclusions but from the adventure on which they were

all embarked, seeing what they wrote as a way of stripping away all the dead matter, exfoliating

consciousness, penetrating its depths. Poetry for them was not an ornament for civilisation but a

challenge to it, a means of remaking the world.

RADICAL WORDSWORTH

Jonathan Bate

A dazzling new biography of Wordsworth’s radical life as a thinker and poetical innovator,

published to mark the 250th anniversary of his birth.

William Wordsworth wrote the first great poetic autobiography. We owe to him the idea that places

of outstanding natural beauty should become what he called ‘a sort of national property’. He

changed forever the way we think about childhood, about the sense of the self, about our

connection to the natural environment, and about the purpose of poetry.

He was born among the mountains of the English Lake District. He walked into the French

Revolution, had a love affair and an illegitimate child, before witnessing horrific violence in Paris.

His friendship with Samuel Taylor Coleridge was at the core of the Romantic movement. As he

retreated from radical politics and into an imaginative world within, his influence would endure as

he shaped the ideas of thinkers, writers and activists throughout the nineteenth century in both

Britain and the United States. This wonderful book opens what Wordsworth called ‘the hiding

places of my power’.

W. H. Auden once wrote that ‘Poetry makes nothing happen’. He was wrong. Wordsworth’s poetry

changed the world. Award-winning biographer and critic Jonathan Bate tells the story of how it

happened.

INVASIVE ALIENS

Dan Eatherley

A Sunday Times Book of the Year

A Telegraph Best Science Book of the Year

A Waterstones Best Nature Book of the Year

A unique history of plant and animal invaders of the British isles spanning thousands of years of

arrivals and escapes, as well as defences mounted and a look to the future.

As Brits we pride ourselves as stoic defenders, boasting a record of resistance dating back to

1066.

Yet, even a cursory examination of the natural world reveals that while interlopers of the human

variety may have been kept at bay, our islands have been invaded, conquered and settled by an

endless succession of animals, plants, fungi and other alien lifeforms that apparently belong

elsewhere. Indeed it’s often hard to work out what actually is native, and what is foreign.

From early settlement of our islands, through the Roman and mediaeval period, to the age of

exploration and globalisation, today’s complement of alien species tells a story about our past.

OUR FINAL WARNING

Mark Lynas

This book must not be ignored. It really is our final warning.

Mark Lynas delivers a vital account of the future of our earth, and our civilisation, if current rates of

global warming persist. And it’s only looking worse.

We are living in a climate emergency. But how much worse could it get? Will civilisation collapse?

Are we already past the point of no return? What kind of future can our children expect? Rigorously

cataloguing the very latest climate science, Mark Lynas explores the course we have set for Earth

over the next century and beyond. Degree by terrifying degree, he charts the likely consequences

of global heating and the ensuing climate catastrophe.

At one degree – the world we are already living in – vast wildfires scorch California and Australia,

while monster hurricanes devastate coastal cities. At two degrees the Arctic ice cap melts away,

and coral reefs disappear from the tropics. At three, the world begins to run out of food, threatening

millions with starvation. At four, large areas of the globe are too hot for human habitation, erasing

entire nations and turning billions into climate refugees. At five, the planet is warmer than for 55

million years, while at six degrees a mass extinction of unparalleled proportions sweeps the planet,

even raising the threat of the end of all life on Earth.

These escalating consequences can still be avoided, but time is running out. We must largely stop

burning fossil fuels within a decade if we are to save the coral reefs and the Arctic. If we fail, then

we risk crossing tipping points that could push global climate chaos out of humanity’s control.

This book must not be ignored. It really is our final warning.

ONE TWO THREE FOUR: THE BEATLES IN

TIMECraig BrownFrom the award-winning author of Ma’am Darling: 99 Glimpses of Princess Margaret comes a

fascinating, hilarious, kaleidoscopic biography of the Fab Four.

On April 10th 2020, it will be exactly 50 years since Paul McCartney announced the break-up of

the Beatles. At that point, we will be at the same distance in time from 1970 as 1970 was from

1920, the year Al Jolson's ‘Swanee’ was the bestselling record and Gustav Holst composed The

Planets.

The Beatles continue to occupy a position unique in popular culture. They have entered people's

minds in a way that did not occur before, and has not occurred since. Their influence extended

way beyond the realm of music to fashion, politics, class, religion and ethics. Countless books

have doggedly catalogued the minutiae of The Beatles. If you want to know the make of George

Harrison's first car you will always be able to find the answer (a second hand, two-door, blue Ford

Anglia 105E Deluxe, purchased from Brian Epstein's friend Terry Doran, who worked at a

dealership in Warrington). Before she met John Lennon, who was the only Beatle Yoko Ono could

name, and why? Ringo. Because ‘ringo’ means ‘apple’ in Japanese. All very interesting, but there

is, as yet, no book about The Beatles that combines the intriguing minutiae of their day-to-day lives

with broader questions about their effect – complicated and fascinating – on the world around

them, their contemporaries, and generations to come.

Until now.

Craig Brown's 1-2-3-4: The Beatles in Time is a unique, kaleidoscopic examination of The Beatles

phenomenon – part biography, part anthropology, part memoir, by turns humorous and serious,

elegiac and speculative. It follows the unique “exploded biography” form of his internationally

bestselling, Ma'am Darling: 99 Glimpses of Princess Margaret.

CRUCIBLE OF HELL

Saul David

From award-winning historian Saul David, an action-packed and powerful new narrative of the

Battle of Okinawa – one of the greatest battles to take place across air, land and sea, and one of

the most extraordinary, unusual episodes of the Second World War.

For the ferocity of the fighting, the loss of life on both sides, and the pivotal, war-ending potential of

its outcome, the assault on Okinawa had no match. Named ‘Operation Iceberg’ by the Americans

leading the campaign against the Japanese island and ‘typhoon of steel’ afterwards for the

overwhelming clash of soldiers, the battle was the bloodiest of the Second World War’s action in

the Pacific. Of the 300,000 pre-war population of Okinawa, around half were killed, committed

suicide, or went missing. On the US Navy’s side, the dead exceeded the wounded.

Saul David delivers fierce military action from both sides with masterful, close attention, weaving

through the remarkable and dreadful features of the battle: the brutal barrage of the kamikaze

attacks, which the Imperial Army believed would deter the American forces; the precedents it set

for Japanese conscription as thousands of boys as young as fourteen were mobilized for guerrilla

warfare; and the terrible circumstances of mass suicide by Japanese civilians, who as defeat

loomed were encouraged by soldiers and handed grenades to use on their families. Where

grenades failed, some family members beat their loved ones to death to save them from American

hands.

Saul David captures the terrible action of the battle, drawing together first-hand narrative accounts

with impeccable research to illuminate this shocking episode of history that is too often forgotten

amidst Western-centric narratives of the Second World War.

Now It’s your turn to meet her.

When Joni Mitchell wrote songs, her lyrics told stories. When she sang, her music spoke truth.

But before composing more than two hundred songs, Joni was a young girl from a town on the

Canadian prairie, where she learned to love dancing, painting, birdsong, and piano. As she grew up

into an artist, Joni took her strong feelings—feelings of love and frustration, the pain of having polio,

and the turbulence that came with being a young woman—and wrote them into vivid songs.

For her fans, few things compare with singing along to a Joni song—listening for the poetry in her

music and lyrics and feeling their own connection to her strong and truthful voice.

Football (Soccer,

Association Football)

£9.99

An insightful, comprehensive and always entertaining appreciation of how European football has

developed over the last three decades by the author of the much heralded The Mixer.

Continental football has always cast a spell over the imagination. From the attacking flair of Real Madrid

of the 50s to the defensive brilliance of the Italians in the 60s and onto the total football of the Dutch in

the 70s, the European leagues have been where the game has most evolved and taken its biggest

steps forward. And over the last three decades, since the rebranding of the Champions League in

1992, that pattern has continued unabated, with each major European footballing nation playing its part

in how the game’s tactics have developed.

From the intelligent use of space displayed by the phenomenal Ajax team of the early 90s, to the

dominance of the highly strategic Italian league in the late 90s and onto the technical wizardry of

Barcelona’s tiki-taka, the European game continues to reinvent the tactical dimension of the game,

creating blueprints which both club and national teams around the world strive to follow.

In Zonal Marking, Michael Cox brilliantly investigates and analyses the major leagues around Europe

over specific time periods and demonstrates the impact each has made on how the game is now

played. Highly entertaining and packed full of wonderful anecdotes, this is the first book of its kind to

take an overview of modern European football, and lays bare just how much the international language

of football can be shaped by a nation’s unique identity.

A SUNDAY TIMES SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR

LONGLISTED FOR THE WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR

Few people watch sport for its politics. Yet what happens on the field of play often reflects the problems

in our society.

Such was the case in the eighties, when black footballers emerged from the dressing room to find

bananas being hurled from the stands, and racially motivated attacks and police harassment were the

norm.

Today, things have improved. Crowds are less hostile and stars like Anthony Joshua and Sir Mohamed

Farah are among our most revered sporting heroes. But for athletes of colour, success on the field

seldom converts to power away from it. Prejudice and abuse may be less overt, but they remain – often

in front of our eyes, often without us being aware. The same can be said of British society: things are

better, yet we continue to be divided by and in denial of racism.

No Win Race is a personal exploration of the complexities and biases implicit in being black in Britain,

told through the prism of sport. Covering the period between the Brixton ‘riots’ and Brexit, this is a book

for those who want honest insight into UK race relations, and for anyone who senses that sport is more

than just a game.

Untitled Memoir

Sir Peter Lampl

9780008372385

May 14, 2020

Hardback

Autobiography: Business &

Industry

£20.00

The candid tale of one of Britain’s most outstanding contemporary philanthropists.

Partly an uplifting memoir, partly an impassioned call for action, Sir Peter Lampl’s autobiography

explains how a self-made entrepreneur amassed a fortune – and then describes why he chose to use it

to help others.

From his humble beginnings as the son of a Viennese refugee to realising, at age 49, that he had made

more money than he would ever be able to spend, this book chronicles Sir Peter’s varied career and

storied past. This is, after all, the man who once asked his New York neighbour (Keith Richards of the

Rolling Stones) if he would mind turning it down a bit. Sir Peter will recount his time in Boston, Paris and

Munich working for the Boston Consulting Group, the challenges he encountered starting a private

equity firm and the experiences that led him to set up the Sutton Trust.

However, at the book’s heart is a serious mission to present a concise and galvanising case for

strategic philanthropy. When Sir Peter realised that the channels that had made his own journey from

state school to Oxbridge to success possible had drastically narrowed and that the social mix among

students was far less diverse, he knew he needed to do something.

This book will lay out the Sutton Trust’s story as an example of what ‘managed philanthropy’ can

achieve and Sir Peter will offer his insights into effecting social change. We all have philanthropic

potential if we learn to recognise and direct it; this book shows you how to.

The Highly Sensitive

Parent

Elaine N. Aron

April 02, 2020

Trade paperback (UK)

Child Care & Upbringing

£14.99

The Highly Sensitive Parent is the only book of its kind, written specifically for parents who think deeply

about every issue affecting their kids, experiencing strong emotions as a result, and face unique

stressors that do not impact parents without high sensitivity.

Parenting is the most valuable and rewarding job in the world, and also one of the most challenging.

This is especially true for highly sensitive people. The good news is that sensitivity can also be a

parent’s most valuable asset, leading to increased personal joy and a closer, happier relationship with

their child.

Dr Elaine Aron, world-renowned author of the classic The Highly Sensitive Person and other bestselling

books on the trait of high sensitivity, has written an indispensable guide for these parents. Drawing on

extensive research and her own experience, she helps highly sensitive parents identify and address

the implications of their heightened sensitivity, offering:

• A self-examination test to help parents identify their level of sensitivity

• Tools to cope with over-stimulation

• Advice on dealing with the negative feelings that can surround parenting

• Ways to manage the increased social stimulation and interaction that comes with having a child

• Techniques to deal with shyness around other parents

• Insight into the five big problems that face highly sensitive parents in relationships – and how to work

through them

Religious Groups: Social &

£16.99

Jay Shetty, social media superstar and host of the #1 podcast ‘On Purpose’, distils the timeless wisdom

he learned as a practising monk into practical steps anyone can take every day to live a less anxious,

more meaningful life.

Over the past three years, Jay Shetty has become a favourite in the hearts and minds of millions of

people worldwide. One of his clips was the most watched video on Facebook last year, with over 360

million views. His social media following totals over 32 million, he has produced over 400 viral videos,

which have amassed more than 5 billion views, and his podcast, ‘On Purpose’, is consistently ranked

the world’s #1 health-related podcast.

In this inspiring, empowering book, Shetty draws on his time as a monk in the Vedic tradition to show us

how we can clear the roadblocks to our potential and power. Drawing on ancient wisdom and his own

rich experiences in the ashram, Think Like a Monk reveals how to overcome negative thoughts and

habits, and access the calm and purpose that lie within all of us.

The lessons monks learn are profound but often abstract. Shetty transforms them into advice and

exercises we can all apply to reduce stress, improve focus, improve relationships, identify our hidden

abilities, increase self-discipline and give the gifts we find in ourselves to the world. Shetty proves that

everyone can – and should – think like a monk.

Mr Atkinson’s Rum

Contract

Richard Atkinson

9780007509249

April 16, 2020

Hardback

Autobiography: Historical,

Political & Military

£20.00

Richard Atkinson was in his late thirties, and approaching a milestone he had long feared – the age at

which his father died – when one day he came across a box of old family letters gathering dust in a

cupboard.

This discovery set him on an all-consuming, highly emotional journey, ultimately taking him from the

weather-beaten house of his Cumbrian ancestors to the ruins of their sugar estates in Jamaica.

Richard’s searches led him to one forebear in particular, an earlier Richard Atkinson, a brilliant but

flawed West India merchant who had shipped all the British army’s supplies (including thousands of

barrels of rum) during the American War of Independence, and amassed staggering wealth and

connections along the way. ‘Rum’ Atkinson died young, at the height of his powers, leaving a vast

inheritance to his many nephews and nieces, as well as the society beauty who had refused his

proposal of marriage; forty years of litigation followed as his heirs wrangled over his legacy.

Drawing on their personal correspondence, Richard writes with rare candour about his worldly

ancestors and their involvement in the slave trade – for, like many well-to-do Georgian families, the

Atkinsons’ wealth was acquired at a terrible cost, through the blood, sweat and lives of enslaved

Africans. When the first of the Atkinsons sailed to Jamaica in the 1780s, the island was the jewel in the

imperial crown; when the last of them returned to England in the 1850s, it was an impoverished

backwater. This vivid tale of a single family, their lives and loves, set against a panoramic backdrop of

war, politics and slavery, offers a uniquely intimate insight into one of the most disturbing chapters in

Britain’s colonial past.

£60.00

This lushly illustrated and fully comprehensive book about the wildlife, landscapes and history of

Pembrokeshire is a much-anticipated addition to the New Naturalist series, and reveals the incredible

wealth of biodiversity present in the region.

Surrounded by sea on three sides, Pembrokeshire is the only national park in the UK designated mainly

for its coastline. In addition to idyllic beaches, the park includes deep wooded valleys and tranquil

estuaries, as well as a marine nature reserve. There is greater variety of geological and landform

scenery in the park than in any other area of the same size in the British Isles, and it is an essential

sanctuary for many of Britain’s seabird species. There are also important archaeological sites in the

park, from Iron Age hill forts and standing stones to the spectacular cathedral of St Davids, as

Pembrokeshire has been consistently inhabited by humans since the Neolithic period.

Jonathan Mullard explores the evolving landscape and observes its effects on its native species and

habitats. He provides a detailed examination of the geology of the region and the integration of the

archaeological and historic landscape with the natural landscape and its fauna. Covering the vast

diversity of Pembrokeshire’s beaches and forests, rivers and waterfalls, moorland and farmland, caves

and cathedrals, he provides an overview of man’s influence on the natural environment over the

centuries and the ongoing conservation of the area. The culmination of years of research, New

Wildlife: General Interest

£20.00

Peer into the secret, silent world of the freshwater fish and explore evolution of the art and industry of

fishing in Britain's rivers and streams

From cunning Neolithic traps, intricate Roman nets and quarrellous Victorian societies to the evolution

of angling and eventual gentrification of river access, this history spans thousands of years and ends

with a poignant call to protect the underwater world from the horrors of industrial fishing and farming.

Meanwhile, another thread of the narrative weaves in the lives of the fishes themselves: the incredible

struggles of the Atlantic salmon and secretive eel; the pike, a lean and camouflaged predator; the carp,

huge and stately, begetter of obsessions; the exquisite spotted brown trout and its silver cousin, the

grayling.

Lives built on and around fishing have largely faded from Britain, but fishermen and conservationists

are working tirelessly to prevent the same fate befalling the fishes.

Environmental Economics

£9.99

‘One of the most important books of the decade’ Country Life

Finally, a practical, realistic plan to rescue, preserve and enhance nature.

News about Britain’s wildlife and ecosystems tends to be grim. In Green and Prosperous Land, Oxford

economist and Natural Capital Committee chair Dieter Helm shares his radical but tangible plan for

positive change.

This pragmatic approach to environmentalism includes a summary of Britain’s green assets, a look

towards possible futures and an achievable 25-year plan for a green and prosperous country. The bold

generational plan assesses the environment as a whole, explains the necessity of protecting and

enhancing our green spaces and offers a clear, financially sound strategy to put Britain on a greener

path.

Helm’s arguments expose the economic inefficiencies in our environmental policies and thus highlight

the need for change. Leaving behind the current sterile and ineffective battle between the environment

and the economy, this revolutionary plan champions the integration of the economy and the

environment together to deliver sustainable, eco-friendly economic growth. There is hope, and there is

time, but we must act now.

Biography: Arts &

£9.99

In 2017 the Salvator Mundi was sold at auction for $450m. But is it a real da Vinci? In a thrilling

narrative built on formidable research, Ben Lewis tracks the extraordinary journey of a masterpiece lost

and found, lied and fought over across the centuries.

In 2017, Leonardo da Vinci’s small oil painting, the Salvator Mundi was sold at auction for $450m. In the

words of its discoverer, the image of Christ as saviour of the world is ‘the rarest thing on the planet by

the greatest human being who ever lived’. Its dazzling price also makes it the world’s most expensive

painting.

For two centuries art dealers had searched in vain for the Holy Grail of art history: a portrait of Christ as

the Salvator Mundi by Leonardo da Vinci. Many similar paintings of greatly varying quality had been

executed by Leonardo’s assistants in the first half of the sixteenth century. But where was the original

by the master himself?

The Countryside, Country

Life

£20.00

Orchards are so rich in biodiversity, they eclipse most recognised conservation areas. Spend a year in

one orchard, and celebrate this imperilled, overlooked abundance of life.

As rotting windfall apples and frost lie thick on the ground, and the oldest of fruit trees bend under the

weight of mistletoe, the orchard begins a new year.

A chattering blanket of starlings descend on the bounty of last year’s fruit, joining bramblings,

blackbirds, angry-faced waxwings and intoxicated fieldfares who, drunk on fermented berries, fight one

another over their rotting real estate. Even in winter, the orchard is a place of bounty, competition and

continuous surprise, most of whose secrets lie hidden deep below the surface.

As the seasons turn, a wealth of animals and plants are revealed: Bumble and solitary bees apartment-

hunting in April; spotted flycatchers migrating in May; redstarts, hedgehogs and owls nesting in June;

an explosion of life in the summer and the harvest and homespun cider-making in the autumn. And all

throughout the year, the orchard’s human and animal inhabitants work together, creating one of the

richest ecosystems left in Britain.

Their ancient tradition of collaboration between people and nature makes orchards a source of hope for

the future. If we can bring new life to England’s orchards – favouring organic methods and harvesting

with a balanced ecosystem in mind – not only wildlife but people will have a far richer England to profit

from in the centuries to come.

From what goes through his head in a yoga class, to being tall, to Theresa May needing to be Queer

He also discusses his single-parent upbringing, his struggles as a lonely teenager and his personal

£20.00

In the face of wrongdoing, why do good people so often do nothing? Pioneering psychologist Catherine

Sanderson explains why moral courage is so rare – and how we can all learn to be brave.

We are bombarded every day by reports of bad behaviour: from sexual harassment to political

corruption, from bullying to corporate greed. We believe these things are wrong or even evil, but in

practice few of us choose to intercede.

The Bystander Effect draws on the latest developments in psychology and neuroscience to explain why

we act differently in groups than when we are alone; how slippery slopes begin and prosper; and where

the dissonance lies between good intentions and real action.

Sanderson answers the question of why otherwise good people can become bystanders to evil of any

scale, and gives practical strategies for how to resist pressures and make change in our own lives.

Courage, this book shows, is not a virtue we’re born with or without. A bystander can learn to be brave.

HELLO NOW

Jenny Valentine

A beautifully moving, exquisite and utterly original love story from Carnegie-shortlisted author

Jenny Valentine – for 12+ girls, boys, and everything in between.

This is more than one story, more than one Now. But I’ll tell it as best I can.

Me? I’m Jude – like the Patron Saint of lost causes.

Him? He’s Novo. Like nothing on earth. Literally.

In the beginning, before Novo showed up, my mum and me moved to the seaside. Then the first of

July, 11.34am. Novo arrived. I was like an atom in his orbit. Alone with him, feeling the pull.

Suddenly in the moment, in the Now.

Then a terrible, unthinkable Now. One that could tear my family apart. But Nows can be undone,

rewritten, changed.

Goodbye to life as I know it.

And Hello Now…

From Guardian-prize-winning author Jenny Valentine, this is a stunningly written exploration of

what it means to live and love in the moment that quite literally transcends logic and time.

STORM

Nicola Skinner

The extraordinarily moving, funny and original new novel from the author of the rapturously

acclaimed BLOOM.

“You were born raging, Frances Frida Ripley. That’s what happens when you’re born in a storm.”

Frances’s parents were not prepared for her birth: they had a blanket and an easel and some

paint, but not anything useful, like a car or a phone. So it’s no wonder Frankie has always had a

temper. She was born on a BEACH, in a STORM.

What Frances was not prepared for was dying in a freak natural disaster that wiped out her whole

town.

Waking up 100 years later, Frances finds a whole load of new things to be angry about. And that’s

before the visitors start turning up, treating her home like it’s a tourist attraction. Which it is.

Only there are worse people out there than tourists… and they’re coming for Frankie.

Frankie is about to discover that there are things more important than herself – and that anger has

its uses. Because when you have a storm inside you – sometimes the only thing to do is let it out…

STARFELL (2) – STARFELL: WILLOW MOSS

AND THE FORGOTTEN TALEDominique Valente, Sarah Warburton

The anticipated second book in 2019’s breakout magical fantasy series, Starfell, starring misfit

witch Willow Moss. Perfect for readers of 8+ and beautifully illustrated throughout by Sarah

Warburton.

Willow Moss, the youngest and least powerful sister in a family of witches, recently saved the

world. The problem is, nobody can remember it – and, to make matters worse, her magical ability

seems broken. Instead of finding lost things, objects keep disappearing against her will … which is

especially troubling now that her friend Sometimes needs her help!

Sometimes has discovered how to see into the future – but only ten minutes into the future.

Unfortunately, that’s only enough time to find out that his kidnappers are on their way! His only

hope is to write an urgent letter to Willow, asking if she wouldn’t mind trying to find him.

As Willow and her friends piece together what has happened to Sometimes, their adventure takes

them from the magical forest of Wisperia to the darkly mysterious and dangerous underworld of

Netherfell. Does the terrifying Queen of the Undead hold the answer? And how can Willow save

Sometimes when her own powers are out of control?
