The Lonely Grave How a Homestead Murder in South Dakota Brought Closure 100 Years Later

The Shardlake series

Now a major Disney+ original series, Shardlake - also airing on ITV. 'A fiendish puzzle and a slice of gritty historical fiction, with a brilliantly unconventional detective at its heart' - Richard Osman, bestselling author of We Solve Murders Dissolution is the first novel in C. J. Sansom's phenomenally bestselling Shardlake series. After one of Cromwell's commissioners is brutally murdered, Matthew Shardlake is drawn into an investigation that becomes darker than he could have ever imagined . . . England, 1537. It is a time of revolution that sees the greatest changes in England since 1066. Henry VIII has proclaimed himself Supreme Head of the Church. The country is waking up to savage new laws, rigged trials and the greatest network of informers it has ever seen. And under the orders of Thomas Cromwell, a team of commissioners is sent throughout the country to investigate the monasteries. There can only be one outcome: dissolution. But on the Sussex coast, at the monastery of Scarnsea, events have spiralled out of control. Cromwell's commissioner, Robin Singleton, has been found dead, his head severed from his body. His horrific murder accompanied by equally sinister acts of sacrilege. Matthew Shardlake, lawyer and long-time supporter of Reform, has been sent by Cromwell to uncover the truth behind the dark happenings at Scarnsea. But Shardlake's investigation soon forces him to question everything that he hears, and everything that he intrinsically believes . . . Follow Shardlake into the dark heart of Tudor England with the next book in the series, Dark Fire. Praise for the series: 'A remarkable, imaginative feat' - Mail on Sunday 'His narrative's tingling intrigues will have you hooked from first page to last' - Sunday Times 'The perfect mixture of novelistic passion and historical detail' - Antonia Fraser, Sunday Telegraph 'Extraordinarily impressive' - Colin Dexter, author of the Inspector Morse series 'An utterly convincing world' - Philippa Gregory, author of The Other Boleyn Girl 'Utterly gripping' - Marian Keyes, author of Rachel's Holiday

Dissolution

True Crime in Adams County
Adams County, Illinois...a place where the Mississippi carves its path through the land and history runs deep in every brick and backroad. But beneath the surface of this quiet Midwestern county lies a trove of chilling secrets and unspeakable acts long whispered about and rarely confronted.
In True Crime in Adams County, these unforgettable stories take readers on a haunting journey through two centuries of murder, mystery, and mayhem. These are not fictional accounts, but true events pulled from dusty courthouse records, yellowed newspaper clippings, and the long memories of townsfolk who haven't forgotten.

In True Crime in Adams County you'll find tales of:
- Small-town murders that shocked entire communities
- Cold cases that still leave law enforcement baffled
- Frontier justice and mob retribution
- Disappearances that were never solved
- Crimes of passion, greed, and power that tore families and towns apart

From the cobblestone streets of historic Quincy to the forgotten fields of Burton, Lima, and Payson, these cases shed light on a darker thread woven through the fabric of this beloved Illinois county. The identities may be familiar. The places might feel like home. But the stories... the stories will make you question just how well we ever really know a place-or the people who live there.
Some stories were buried long ago.
Others were never told at all.
Now, for the first time, they come together in this compelling volume of real-life crime-equal parts historical account, investigative narrative, and haunting reminder that evil often lurks where we least expect it.
Step into the shadows of Adams County-if you dare.

Selby Bigge is a bank clerk by day and a denizen of the capital's queer underworld by night, but he yearns for a life that will take him away from his ledgers, loveless trysts and dreary bedsit in in which his every move is scrutinised by a nosy landlady. So when he meets Patrick, son of knight of the realm and banking millionaire Sir Lionel Duker, he is delighted to find himself catapulted into a world of dinners at The Ritz and birthday parties at his new friend's family mansion on Hampstead Heath. But money, it seems, can't buy happiness. Sir Lionel is being slandered in the press, his new young wife Lucinda is being harassed by an embittered journalist and Patrick is worried he'll lose his inheritance to his gold-digging stepmother. And when someone is found strangled on the billiards room floor after a party it doesn't take long for Selby to realise everyone has a motive for murder. Can Selby uncover the truth while keeping his own secrets buried?

A Queer Case

The Kyiv Mysteries

Samson Kolechko has been assigned a most perplexing case - though it is mostly perplexing because it's hard to understand why selling the meat of one's own pig constitutes a crime. But apparently it does, and at the insistence of the Chekist secret police officer assigned to "reinforce" the Lybid police station, Samson does his diligent - if diffident - best. Yet no sooner has he got started than his live-in fiancée Nadezhda is abducted by striking railway workers who object to the census she's carrying out. And when you factor in a mysterious thief in the police station itself, a deadly tram accident that may have been pre-meditated, and the potential reappearance of the culprit in the case of the silver bone, it's no wonder the "meat case" takes a back seat. But it is in the pursuit of that petty-fogging, seemingly mundane matter that Samson's fate lies - and Nadezhda's too, for the two are inextricably entwined. Translated from the Russian by Boris Dralyuk Reviews for The Silver Bone - Longlisted for the International Booker Prize "Andrey Kurkov is often called Ukraine's greatest living writer, and it is a gift for crime fiction fans that he writes in this genre" New York Times "Wildly enjoyable . . . A glorious aural portrait of a city in dangerous flux . . . I finished The Silver Bone wishing to read more" Guardian

'Absolutely fascinating . . . A must-read for anyone enthralled by the value and integrity of books' Janice Hallett, author of The Alperton Angels'Hugely entertaining . . . a propulsive if unlikely thriller, whose plot hinges on typographical minutiae and sherry parties' LRBA true detective story from the age of Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers: the literary crime that fooled the world - and the daring young booksellers who uncovered itLondon, 1932. Thomas James Wise is the toast of the literary establishment. A prominent collector and businessman, he is renowned on both sides of the Atlantic for unearthing the most stunning first editions and bringing them to market. Pompous and fearsome, with friends in high places, he is one of the most powerful men in the field of rare books. One night, two young booksellers - one a dishevelled former communist, the other a martini-swilling fan of detective stories - stumble upon a strange discrepancy. It will lead them to suspect Wise and his books are not all they seem. Inspired by the vogue for Hercule Poirot and Sherlock Holmes, the pair harness the latest developments in forensic analysis to crack the case, but find its extent is greater than they ever could have imagined. By the time they are done, their investigation will have rocked the book world to its core. This is the true story of unlikely friends coming together to expose the literary crime of the century, and of a maverick bibliophile who forged not only books but an entire life, erasing his past along the way. 'The perfect piece of armchair detection' Ruth Ware, author of The Woman in Cabin 10'Thrilling . . . reads like a detective story from the golden age' Roland Philipps, author of A Spy Named Orphan'A great story that is truly stranger than fiction' Martin Edwards, President of the Detection Club
