"Lieutenant Harsker and his elite Commandos are given no respite as they are sent behind enemy lines to help the Canadians on the ill-fated attack at Dieppe. After escaping, by the skin of their teeth, they are sent to North Africa to destroy valuable equipment which has fallen into the enemy's hands. A fast-moving tale, the action moves from Europe to Africa and from sea to land."
"As the clash of swords and the cries of the fallen resound through the valleys of Germany, King Gustavus Adolphus stands poised to change the course of history. Fourteen years of devastation sparked by religious tensions have left a scarred land and the Swedish monarch gathers his loyal army for a final, decisive strike against the tyranny of the Catholic Cause.
Once again all hope is pinned on James Bretherton, now a senior commander in the Protestant Army, whose name has become synonymous with courage and leadership. After a brief respite in the company of his family, he is drawn back into the conflict -not just out of duty but compelled by a deeper calling to secure the religious freedom of the German Protestants and continue to serve one of the greatest military leaders in history: the Lion of the North. Yet, as Colonel Bretherton returns, he finds a world transformed by dark ambition and masquerading loyalties. Friends may not be as they seem, and enemies lurk behind every corner, ready to exploit a moment of weakness.
As the battle for faith and freedom rages on, James must navigate a treacherous landscape of alliances, betrayal, and sacrifice. Can he honour his principles and protect the ones he loves in a time where trust is the rarest currency? Lion of the North is a gripping tale of bravery and conviction that explores the thin line between ally and adversary in an age of chaos.
The exciting third instalment in the English Mercenary series by Griff Hosker. Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell and S. G. Maclean."
"Dedicated ‘Puffer Nutter’ Paul Routledge has loved trains all his life.
Whether it’s chugging along on a scenic steam railway or whizzing through towns and fields to the other side of the country, for Paul it has never lost its magic.
A journalist for nearly 60 years years and Daily Mirror columnist for 27 of those, Paul has written regularly about the joys of train travel.
Now the country is set to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the modern railway – The Stockton & Darlington Railway opened on September 27, 1825 – when better to pen a love letter to trains?
Looking at everything from the earliest days, fascinating stories, famous faces and future of the railways, Paul’s ode to trains is a must-read for any railway fan as well as those enthusiastic amateurs who just want to know a little more about transport they possibly take for granted."
"When his identical twin brother Simon was kicked to death, all Nick Dawson felt for the killers was hatred.
Struggling in a world where his mirror image had vanished, he came to realise there was only one way to stop the torture - acceptance. Travelling to the absolute limits of personal darkness, Nick came face to face with one of his brother's killers.
Now a champion of restorative justice, Nick heads behind bars, asking hardened criminals to change, to think of their victims, to make amends.
In Face to Face he takes us with him on a journey into this hidden and unpredictable world."
"With ample fortunes garnered as a Sword for Hire and a loving wife now at his side,
Captain James Bretherton at last looks to the prospect of leaving the world of war; instead,
becoming a man who trains others to fight. Any plans for an easier life are soon thwarted
however, when King Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden seeks Bretherton’s services. In his fight
for the Protestant cause, Adolphus is eager to strengthen the backbone of his army and for
that he needs Captain James; he needs a Captain of Horse."
"Love gripping crime fiction? Discover Detective Stephen Greco, a meticulous policeman with a messy personal life. From #1 best-selling author Helen H. Durrant comes a mystery you won't want to put down.
Two young men break into an expensive house in Cheshire. They take money and jewellery — and a large amount of heroin. Within twenty-four hours they are found brutally murdered.
The killings have all the hallmarks of a local drug baron. The two victims were also “angels” helping in a community project which seems to have been lowering the crime rate in the area.
But not everything is as it seems. Who is the mysterious ice-cold blonde woman who seems to be at the heart of the case?"
"It is 1941 and Britain is pressed on all sides. With Japan in the war and convoys being sunk by submarines and surface raiders the last bastion fighting Hitler is beleaguered. The Commandos are the only ones who can fight beyond the Atlantic Wall. Tom Harsker and his section are sent behind enemy lines to destroy gun emplacements and then rescue a captured Resistance leader. Then they are given the task of joining the Campbelltown Raid on St. Nazaire. There they find themselves in greater danger than ever before."
"Will love prevail over prejudice?
When nine-year-old Henry, son of King John, is hastily crowned, the Jewish community is hopeful. But life isn’t always kind…
Against a backdrop of rising persecution, Mirabelle, a fiery Jewish woman, is determined to succeed with the help of her son Bonanfaunt.
Slowly, Mirabelle and her family climb the ranks and replace the old family as leaders of their community.
Years later, life for a Jew still remains extremely difficult. And when further draconian restrictions are imposed upon the livelihoods of the community, doubts are raised about whether they can survive in this increasingly hostile world.
Will they be chased out of Gloucester for good, or will they endure the storm?"
"An only child of Anglo-French descent, young James Bretherton has known a life of privilege; well-educated and mild mannered, his path is filled with promise. But when James suddenly finds himself orphaned and penniless, his future looks decidedly bleak. It is only when Fate intervenes in the guise of two English mercenaries, that James is given hope. Embarking on a new life as a soldier, he soon becomes embroiled in the religious war between Catholics and Protestants, The Empire and the German States; the war that was known as The Thirty Years war."
"It's always the husband... Isn't it?
Astrid Webb is missing. The police have found her car crashed near the woods, the driver's door open, the seat spotted with blood. But there's no sign of Astrid herself, a sick woman who rarely left her house, who surely couldn't have left the scene of the accident without help.
Her husband Bryan is sure that she's alive - after all, this isn't the first time she's vanished, only to reappear without explanation. But as the days pass, Bryan starts to look like a suspect in his wife's disappearance, perhaps in her murder. Because Bryan isn't telling the police the whole truth. Not about Astrid's stalker, their broken-in back door, or the threatening messages she received. And it seems as if both Astrid and Bryan have something to hide.
Then a woman's body is found in the woods, her face terribly disfigured. By staying silent, is Bryan protecting Astrid, or protecting himself?
