&nbsp;Three best friends. One five-star hotel. Will it be the holiday of a lifetime?

<div>Imogen is going on an expenses-paid holiday with her best friends. What could possibly go wrong? Imogen isn’t used to five-star hotels.&nbsp;&nbsp;She’s used to juggling the pressures of her job with raising a four-year-old single-handedly and trying to keep smiling throughout. &nbsp; So, when her friend wins a VIP trip to Barcelona’s most fashionable new hotel, it’s her chance to finally relax.&nbsp; &nbsp; But Imogen knows better than most that life doesn’t always go according to plan and things start to go awry before they’ve even set foot on the plane. &nbsp; The big question is: what is really motivating the mysterious, handsome man who’s always in the right place at the wrong time? 'Funny, sexy and moving - a hilarious holiday romp with a heart. I loved it' SOPHIE KINSELLA</div>

Untitled New Novel

'[A] moving story about secrecy, shame and the healing power of vulnerability' Daily Mail Norman Cartwright, an eighty-six-year-old man living in the small seaside town of Clacton, Essex, has kept his cross-dressing a secret his entire life. A trucker by trade, his lipstick and wigs were donned only in the lonely confines of his lorry, as he sat in lay-bys and drove along empty roads on long trips away from his wife and children. After years of judgement, abuse and fear, Norman no longer knows how to embrace this side of himself, or if anyone would accept him if he did . . . When his teenage granddaughter, Florence, turns up unannounced, it's obvious that she, too, has secrets she's not yet willing to share. As they grow closer, however, the truth bubbles free and life starts to change in profound and unexpected ways, both for them and everyone around them. In Search of Ethel Cartwright is a moving story of family, love and courage that reminds us of the importance of being true to ourselves.

A touching and uplifting story of one eighty-six-year-old man on a life-changing journey.

In Search of Ethel Cartwright

'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.

When I Died for the First Time

A stirring exploration of war, race and belonging from the Nobel-prize winning author of Beloved. An angry and self-loathing veteran of the Korean War, Frank Money finds himself back in racist America after enduring trauma on the front lines that left him with more than just physical scars. As Frank revisits the memories from childhood and the war that leave him questioning his shattered sense of self, he unearths the courage he thought he'd lost forever. It is with incantatory power that Morrison's language reveals an apparently defeated man finding his manhood - and, finally, his home. 'No other writer in my lifetime, or perhaps ever, has married so completely an understanding of the structures of power with knowledge of the human heart' Kamila Shamsie, GuardianWinner of the PEN/Saul Bellow award for achievement in American fiction

A Mercy

I'm Hungry

Untitled Eleanor Ray 4

In Heart, Be at Peace, which can be read independently, Donal picks up the twenty-one voices from The Spinning Heart ten years on, in 2019. Small-town Ireland is a different place, the economy having recovered from the economic crash that served as a backdrop to the events in that book. Now the work is back, the dramas have all seemingly died down, the dark days of recession and struggle are over. But a new menace is creeping around the lakeshore and the lanes of the town, old grudges are festering and new ones are rising, and the peace of the community is about to be shattered in an unimaginable way. Young people are being drawn towards the promise of fast money whilst the generation above them tries to push back the tide of an enemy none of them can touch.

Heart, Be at Peace

Originally published as a series of sketches in Harper's Bazaar magazine, Loos' debut novel was an instant success that popularised the tropes of the 'dumb blonde' and the 'gold-digger'; we follow Lorelei, a young blonde flapper, through a series of diary entries as she and her friend Dorothy take an extravagant trip across Europe. Lorelei involves herself with various men, seeing them only as entertainment and the means to increasing her jewellery collection - whereas Dorothy is more romantically inclined (much to Lorelei's chagrin). The way that their exploits are told in Lorelei's distinctive narrative voice and the imaginative writing techniques used by Loos form the heart of the novel, coming together to create a timeless comedic tone that will connect with contemporary and modern readers alike.
