Salam A: The Salvage

The Salvage

A Leningrad Confidential

Yakovleva 3

Salomé was bullied for years and no one did a single thing to help her. One day she finally snapped. Now at just sixteen years old, she's being held in a secure unit for young offendersSalomé's counsellor, the man whose good opinion is key to her release, is best known for his racist gaffes on reality TV. Her father has recently been diagnosed with liver cancer and her elder sister Miriam's main preoccupation is to get out of their small, close-minded village as soon as possible. Both at home and in the unit, things are unbearably tense. Salomé finds it hard to keep her temper and harder still to think about the crime she is charged with committing. But as time passes, she finds new strength to delve into the reasons for her rage and arrive at her own understanding of punishment, penitence and the paradoxical demands made on her existence as a Black woman. Raw and unsentimental, Confrontations is a powerful depiction of racism and resilience from one of the Netherlands' most exciting new literary voices.

Deception Island

'What a ride this is! A big wide book. An amazingly vivid piece of writing, from the hilarious to the horrifying and everything in between' BRIAN ENO Meet Seth Brakes. Musician. Reluctant romantic. Inherent troublemaker. Addict. And three hundred and twenty days sober. After a near-death experience, Seth is carving a new path for himself. Having reformed the band - the infamous Lucky Fuckers - things are looking up for Seth: gigs are falling back into the diary, he's in love and finally getting back to what he enjoys most: writing music. That is until his past starts to creep up on him . . . A dark comedy that is painfully honest, original and dynamically told, When I Died For the First Time is a raw account of a man tested his uppermost limits, hitting legendary highs and crashing to catastrophic lows. It's a tale of second chances, love lost and gained, and coming back to yourself: a story that stays with you long after you've turned the last page.

Mountain of God

Lazarus Man

Joe Byrne is an army bomb disposal expert whose addiction to risk almost cost him his life on numerous occasions.  Miracuously, he survived his final tour in Afghanistan, but his luck had already run out.  The day before he arrived home for good, his wife Kate was killed in a car crash.   Left to bring up their daughter Chloe on his own, Joe is determined to be an ordinary father and take no more risks with what is precious to him.   Until an ambitious CIA operative he knew in Afghanistan makes him an offer he canï¿½t refuse.  Intelligence picked up in Afghanistan suggests that the security servicesï¿½ worst nightmare could be a reality: the existence of a white, Anglo-saxon suicide bomber.  The most likely suspect seems to be an embittered and unbalanced Army vet, with experiences not dissimilar from Joeï¿½s, and he is therefore the perfect choice to enroll in a clinic for soldiers who have suffered psychological damage in Afghanistan in order to discover the bomber - especially since if he doesnï¿½t, he could find Chloe has been taken away from him.  But as Joeï¿½s investigation takes him from London to Milan, to Bagram, and Gaza, it becomes clear that a plan much more shocking and ingenious than even the CIA could have imagined is underway, and Joe - and Chloe - have become an integral part of it.   If he wants to save his daughter, Joe is going to have to learn to gamble with peopleï¿½s lives once again.

When should my story begin? Not when I was born, a butcher's son, in a tiny cottage just like all the other tiny cottages in Oakham. Who'd have thought then that I'd ever have much of a story to tell? Perhaps it starts when people began to nudge each other and stare as I walked with my mother to market, or the first time someone whispered that we were cursed. But I didn't know then. No, I think my story begins on the day of the Oakham Fair, in the year of 1625. When I was ten years old and I found out what I was.Nat Davy is a dwarf. He is 10 years old, and all he wants is to be normal. After narrowly escaping being sold to the circus by his father, Nat is presented to Queen Henrietta Maria - in a pie. She's 15, trapped in a loveless marriage to King Charles I, and desperately homesick. Nat becomes a friend to the woman who'll become the power behind the throne and trigger the Civil War, but in the eyes of the world he's still a pet, a doll to be dressed up and shown off. Nat longs to ride and hunt like the other boys at court. The real boys. But he will never be accepted. Loosely based on a true story, this epic tale spans 20 years; during which the war begins, Nat and the queen go on the run, Nat saves the queen's life, falls in love with the most beautiful girl at court, kills a man, is left in exile. Told from his unique perspective as the smallest man in England, with the clever and engaging voice of a boy turned man yearning for acceptance, this story takes us on an unforgettable journey. He's England's smallest man, but his story is anything but small.
