The Wellness Retreat

"A Picture of Dorian Grey meets A Cure for Wellness in this suspenseful, horror-tinted thriller set at an exclusive health retreat on a remote Scottish island, where miraculous treatments offered to wealthy clientele may not be precisely what they seem. Perfection comes at a cost. Jaimie Vane used to measure her life in concert halls and standing ovations. Now she measures it in symptoms. The chronic illness that ended her career as a cellist doesn't have a name or a cure-just a long list of things her body can't do anymore. When her wild child younger sister Sybil reinvents herself as a live-in staffer at an ultra-exclusive wellness retreat, Jaimie assumes it's another phase. Until her messages stop. Until the voucher arrives. Talamh Dhubh, a black-sand island in the middle of a wintery sea and home to Saoghal Spa, is a place for guests to be reborn. The founder, the enigmatic and glamorous Cyan Blache, promises restoration. Clarity. Transcendence. Whatever ails you, Saoghal will draw it from you. For guests willing to surrender completely, body and soul, the results are nothing short of miraculous. Jaimie tells herself she's only there to find Sybil. Not to drink organic detox smoothies or pour herself onto canvas in art therapy. Not to lie in the mineral baths and bask in the curiously soothing black mud. Not to believe the guests and staff who say Saoghal changed their lives. But the longer she stays, the lighter her body feels. The quieter her pain becomes. The easier it is to forget what she was like before she got sick. At Saoghal, healing is real. And so is the cost. Because the island doesn't merely cure the visitors who revel in the embrace of its rich, black mud…it ensnares them. And the ones who arrive broken don't always leave.

The Queen of Bad Influences: Stories

"Twelve compressed masterworks from this great American writer of catastrophe fiction, in which lives are upended as much by broken hearts as by collapsing dams, hideously mismanaged wars, gargantuan wildfires, and apocalyptic storms "Jim Shepard is a fantastic writer-compassionate, funny, and fearless-[whose work] does what great writing always does: inspires us to look more closely at life, and be more caring." -George Saunders 'A deft, audacious artist.' -Norman Rush, National Book Award-winning author of Mating In Richard Ford's view, Jim Shepard's "talent is so various and canny he can write about seemingly anything and make it thrilling to us," and in these stories spanning six centuries we find viscerally evoked worlds as wildly diverse as a mercenary's corner of 16th century Madrid, a young apprentice's pre-Revolutionary Boston, and Edward Hyde's London. With civil engineers and destitute veterans we encounter the devastating 1935 Labor Day hurricane in Florida, and we read the 1864 letters between Lucy in Boon, North Carolina ("Three privates are currently sleeping soundly on our porch in their muddy blankets") and her great love, William, on the march in Tennessee ("I can't write much for it seems we are looking for a fight every minute"), while the title story introduces us to the stubborn Constance, who had "no gift for flirtation" with men, preferring Minna, her best friend and "queen of bad influences," as their vexed devotion unfolds in part on the liner Lusitania. With irony, compassion, and withering humor, these stories evoke the terrible ease with which cataclysm, human-engineered or otherwise, can sweep away all we find most precious, and expose those limitations we've refused to address. At the same time, Shepard celebrates what is best in us: the love and friendships we sustain, and the passions and grace we grant one another."

"A death in the (dysfunctional) family – can they hold it together long enough to organise the funeral? When Mary dies, Patch can barely keep track of her mother’s journey from the hospital to the mortuary, let alone host a wake in her childhood home. Mary's ex Robin wants to support his daughter but, but instead of acting like a responsible father, he heads to his former haunt: the lay-by where he used to meet farmers for sex. Jude is en route. She hasn't spoken to her cousin Patch in almost a year, and would rather stay in Naples, but she's hoping that her attendance will mean that past behaviour is forgiven. Thrown together in Mary’s tiny house, each of them is trying to feel something: to grieve, atone, join in, be better. But they rarely have one another’s best interests at heart, and as the connections between them twist and contort, they lose sight of the rules and grasp towards anything that might make it all less painful.

Seven Sisters: Captives and Rebels in Revolutionary Europe's First Family

"A spirited, poignant history of the seven daughters of the great Empress Maria Theresia-among them, Queen Marie Antoinette of France-tracing their lives as they balanced dynastic duty with personal ambition in a time of revolutionary cataclysm "Others make war; you, happy Austria, marry." For three centuries, the astute positioning of their many princesses and princes had kept the Habsburgs at the peak of European power. By 1764, after a generation of costly war, confronted by shaken alliances, immense debts, and restive subjects, the Empress Maria Theresia was seeking once again to assert the dynasty's power through strategic marriages. Her arsenal was full: her seven daughters were to serve as her pawns in the ruthless game of eighteenth-century dynastic politicking. Delivered to the grandest or dingiest courts in Europe, they made their difficult and even dangerous ways: Marianna the seeker; the grande dame Marie Christine; Elisabeth, the malicious, disfigured beauty; fractious and wayward Amalie of Parma; the tragic bride Josepha; Carolina of Naples, Napoleon's relentless enemy; and Antonia, youngest of the seven, sacrificial offering to the gods of revolution, better known to history as Marie Antoinette. Meticulously researched and animated by the sisters' own diaries and the almost daily letters traversing the continent, Seven Sisters reveals the drama, tragedy and comedy of these exceptional yet all too human lives. It is a vivid portrait of a brilliant world collapsing in a fearful time."
