"What goes around comes around Every summer four friends gather at Barnes Fair to ride the carousel in memory of Esther, the school friend they lost in a car crash they were all involved in as teenagers. This year, the morning after the fair, one of those friends, Shelley Gregory, is found murdered on that very carousel. DI Garibaldi has questions to ask. Who killed Shelley, and why there? Is her death linked to the tragedy the friends commemorate each year, or do the answers lie closer to home in the quiet Thameside village of Barnes, where Shelley was well known but not always well liked? As Garibaldi pieces together the events of that summer night, he uncovers dark undercurrents beneath Barnes’s genteel surface and begins to see the truth: what goes around comes around when you ride the carousel of time. ‘A first class mystery…Bernard O’Keeffe is on a roll to the big time’ Daily Mail ‘Perfect comfort reading’ The Times ‘An enthralling mix of mystery and murder’ Mail on Sunday"

The Waiting Room: Stories of Love, Loss and Hope on the Path to Parenthood

"'An important book' Edwina Dunn, Founder of The Female Lead The path to parenthood is deeply personal. When that journey twists and stalls, it can feel impossibly lonely. Yet connection, courage and hope can be found, often in the stories of those who have taken the road before us. The Waiting Room exists because too many people experience infertility, loss and longing in silence. Every day in the UK, there are hundreds of miscarriages, about seven stillbirths, ten terminations for medical reasons and five neonatal deaths. Around 1 in every 80 pregnancies in the UK is ectopic. Globally, 1 in 6 couples face infertility at some point in their lives. Yet, the silence around the hospital visits and heartbreak remains. What happens after the negative pregnancy tests, the first miscarriage, the failed round of IVF, the ectopic pregnancy or the stillbirth? What is it like to pursue adoption, surrogacy or donor conception, or come to terms with a life without children? Drawing on dozens of honest, hopeful, bravely shared accounts, Audrey Ward curates a selection of stories – including her own – from those whose journeys to (or away from) parenthood were anything but simple, to help answer all these questions, and more. So, join us in The Waiting Room, a place of comfort, advice and connection, for anyone who has ever felt that parenthood is painfully out of reach.

The Health and Wellness Lie: Exposing the hype, hacks and hidden agendas of the well-being machine

"Bloomsbury presents The Health and Wellness Lie: Exposing the hype, hacks and hidden agendas of the wellbeing machine by Dr Nicholas B. Tiller, read by Oliver Hembrough ‘A tour de force, debunking the myths and scams of the modern wellness industry. A great read’ – Dr Chris Van Tulleken, best-selling author of Ultra-Processed People The health and wellness industry isn’t your friend. It isn’t a reliable path to wellbeing, nor a source of sound advice on losing weight, getting fit or curing chronic pain. It’s a multi-trillion-pound con. A parasite, it feeds on your hopes and fears, exploits your naivety and cashes in on your repeated failures. This book is your blueprint for taking back control. The global health and wellness market is worth over £5 trillion. But the expensive supplements, fad diets and quick-fix treatments aren’t benefiting our health – they’re making us fatter, sicker and unhappier. Drawing on more than two decades of experience, exercise scientist Dr Nick Tiller pulls back the curtain on an industry that values profit over people. He exposes how wellness marketing exploits our biases, why social media amplifies the loudest voices rather than the most credible and how bad science drives health misinformation. From weight-loss drugs and cold plunges to wearable tech and alternative therapies, separate fact from fiction and discover what truly works. This is essential reading for anyone ready to see wellness culture for what it is – dangerous, dishonest and long overdue for a reckoning – and to take back control of our body and health.

The Age Code: The New Science of Food and How It Can Save Us

"** As seen on ITV Tonight… THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER ** ** A New Scientist Best Book of 2026 ** 'Clear and compelling' Chris van Tulleken 'Really interesting and insightful' Joe Wicks 'Fascinating' Tim Spector – What if the food you eat could rewind your biological clock? From the rising incidence of cancer in the under-50s to increased infertility rates, there are signs everywhere that growing numbers of us are ageing too quickly. Why? Many believe there’s one major culprit: our diet. Ageing reflects a fragile balance in our cells between damage and repair. Sugar, excess calories and gut inflammation are all common sources of damage, but if we instead fuel our body with valuable micronutrients, we can lower our disease risk and age markedly slower. Until recently this process was impossible to measure, but with new breakthroughs we can even assess the age of individual organs, giving rise to a new science of food that might save us. Join Dr David Cox as he meets the experts attempting to understand what’s accelerating our biological clocks and what we can do about it. Along the way you’ll learn everything from why we become more acidic as we age, to why omega-3s are one of the most powerful anti-ageing supplements, to the simple adjustments to your cooking that will help you age better. The Age Code urgently pinpoints why our eating habits must change and what we can all do to live longer and healthier lives."

"Bloomsbury presents The Football Battalions: The Elite Footballers Who Fought in the Great War by Christopher Evans, read by Oliver Hembrough 'A brilliant book' - Kevin Day 'An extraordinary story' - David Williamson, Chief Political Commentator at the Daily Express THE POIGNANT STORY OF HOW PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALLERS WENT TO WAR 1914. Britain is slowly becoming football-obsessed: players are becoming household names, attendance is increasing and George V attends the FA Cup Final in May. Then the war breaks out. In this fascinating work, equal parts footballing and military history, Christopher Evans explores how, once the war began, footballers were put under immense pressure to sign up, resulting in the formation of Football Battalions in England and Scotland. He recounts the wartime exploits of the leading footballers of the day. Some would return to leave their mark on the game; some would fade into obscurity; and some would never make it back. Among them are Vivian Woodward, an Olympic gold medallist and football's first superstar; Frank Buckley, who would emerge from the war a hero and go on to redefine the role of a football manager; and Walter Tull, Tottenham and Northampton hero, who faced racism both on the football field and battlefield before becoming the first Black man to win a commission and command a unit in the British Army. Drawing on archival material, this is a captivating exploration of the elite footballers who went to war. P 2025 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC C 2025 Christopher Evans"
