Lynette Rees / Deryn Edwards

ONCE A WORKHOUSE GIRL, ALWAYS A WORKHOUSE GIRL... Enid Hardcastle has always had a hard life, but when her family can't make ends meet and are moved to the workhouse, it feels like things can't get any worse. But luckily for Enid, her friendship with local boy Jimmy gives her the strength she needs. Also from the cold, hard streets of Merthyr, Jimmy has made his name as an entrepreneur, repairing boots and hand-delivering them to the fine people of the town. Enid has seen for herself that you can make a better life for yourself, so with Jimmy's help, she sets about trying to save her family. But there are even darker places than the workhouse, and as the rumour mill churns, it appears there's an even more dangerous fate she will need to avoid...

How America Works... And Why It Doesn't (Audio CD)
William Cooper / Jeff Harding

A brief guide to US politics which provides a non-partisan assessment of the ongoing challenges faced by American democracy, not least from Trump and his supporters. Cooper explains key aspects of recent US political history to give the background to recent, dangerous developments, including how political groups have reshaped since the 1964 Civil Rights Act; the rise of Newt Gingrich and the Tea Party; the profound impact of the internet and social media; and the threats posed to the electoral system by the growth of extreme polarization and growing irrationality. He shows how these recent developments have their roots in the deeper past, with the establishment of the political system in the first place and all the knocks and tweaks to it along the way. He also reveals how, as a result of increasing politicisation, the US Supreme Court is now exacerbating polarization instead of acting as an effective check on executive power.

Her Last Summer (Softcover)
Nina Manning

I had vowed I would never get back into the water, but of course, this was always going to be the outcome. I never really had a choice. When out of work actress Rey Levine is offered her dream acting role, she knows she has to make it work. But there's a catch: the film calls for Rey to swim, something she hasn't done since her last fateful summer holiday fifteen years ago. The summer her sister disappeared. . . and everyone blamed Rey. Rey will do anything to block out the painful memories, but it means her current life is in freefall - drink and men her drugs of choice. With her first dip in the cool water, Rey thinks she's found the perfect escape. But as the water holds her, old memories float to the surface, forcing Rey to remember the terrible summer she'd rather forget. But someone doesn't want the truth to surface. Not now, not ever. . . And they're prepared to ruin Rey's life all over again.

A Family's Trust (Audio CD)
Louise Guy / Taryn Ryan

COULD YOU TRUST THE SISTER YOU'VE NEVER MET BEFORE? When tragedy brings biological sisters Jessica Williams and Reeve Elliot together, the initial shock of learning of each other's existence is quickly replaced by a commitment to be there for each other. For Reeve, it's the support she needs at a time when her life is falling apart - she's having blackouts and memory loss, exactly what her beloved late mother suffered from just a few years before. For Jess, it's a chance to find solace in family and move beyond the abandonment and trauma she experienced as a child forced to grow up in the foster care system. As the bond between the two women deepens, their relationship is tested in ways they'd never have imagined. When Jess's past comes back to haunt her, the nightmare that is Reeve's present intensifies. With a large inheritance at stake, the lines between greed and family, as well as right and wrong, begin to blur. Someone is lying. Someone is manipulating the truth. But is it one of the sisters? And - as secrets unravel, both sisters will question... who can they truly trust?

Saskia Sarginson / Anna Burnett

'Please, I need your help. You're the only person I can turn to. The only person who can pretend to be me. . .' When Alice gets a desperate message from her estranged identical twin sister Cecily, she can't help herself. She has to say yes. Pushing down the memories of the terrible childhood that ultimately tore them apart, she arrives at her sister's house. Cecily has left instructions: how to work the oven, what to cook for supper, what to say to her husband. She says she'll only be gone a week. She just needs to contact a lawyer, sort her head out, and work out how to get away from her marriage safely. Alice barely knows why she's agreed. But as she puts the key in the door, she wonders if - in coming to help her sister - she might be putting herself in the most terrible danger. Because when Cecily stops replying to messages, and the words 'die, die, die' appear scrawled in lipstick on the bathroom mirror, Alice realizes - someone is out to get Cecily. And now they think Alice is her. . .

A secluded house. A lost notebook. A wartime secret. 1942: Young Irish nurse Ellen arrives at May Day House, tasked with helping the men there rehabilitate. But there's something strange about the house, surrounded by water, on its own island in the Thames. And then there are the men: traumatised by their experiences of war, and subject to troubling methods in a desperate race to get them back to duty. As Ellen gets drawn into the world of May Day House, she starts to realise this will be no place to hide away from her own troubles . . . 2013: Philip and Meredith are the proud new owners of May Day House. Following a string of tragedies, the couple have moved to the area in search of a new start. But all is not what it seems in the riverside community. As their plans for the rundown house meet resistance from the neighbours, Meredith finds herself slowly unravelling: she hears voices on the water, sees figures where there can be no one there. When she finds an old notebook from the war, she seeks solace in the stories about the former patients of the island. But will shadows from the past threaten her future happiness - and even her life?

The Red Cobra (Softcover)
Rob Sinclair

James Ryker thought he'd gotten away from the chaos and violence of espionage. He couldn't have been more wrong... Carl Logan dedicated nearly twenty years to the Joint Intelligence Agency. Now living in a secret location, under the new identify of James Ryker, he wants nothing more than to be left alone to start a new life away from chaos, violence, destruction and deceit. It's not long, however, before Ryker's short-lived idyll is destroyed when he's tracked down by Peter Winter, his ex-boss at the JIA. Winter brings news of the murder of a woman in Spain, Kim Walker, whose fingerprints match those of one of Ryker's former adversaries who's been missing presumed dead for years - an infamous female assassin known as the Red Cobra. A cyber attack at the JIA led to the Red Cobra's profile being compromised, and Winter believes JIA agents may now be at risk too, Ryker included. But Ryker knew the elusive Red Cobra better than anyone, and when he sees the grisly pictures of Kim Walker's corpse, he has news for Winter - she isn't the assassin at all... So just who is the mystery dead woman? And where is the real Red Cobra?
