‘An alluring, immersive Gothic mystery from an impressively talented writer…. A simmering, splendid novel’ Jennifer Saint
There’s something devilish going on in the quiet Welsh village of Penhelyg. Will the shadow key unlock its dark secrets?
After a grave mistake, Henry Talbot has been forced to take an unappealing position as a village doctor in remote Wales where he can’t speak the language and belief in myth and magic is rife. When Henry discovers his predecessor died in mysterious circumstances, and starts to notice an arcane symbol appearing in odd places, he sets out to find answers.
When Henry meets the lady of the manor, Linette Tresilian, he finds her vexingly unhelpful at first. She seems to know little about the shelves of occult books he notices in her family’s library. But Linette has suspicions of her own about what’s happened in the village and, together, their investigations will bind their destinies in ways neither thought possible.

**THE FINAL NOVEL FROM THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER MO HAYDER, WITH A FOREWORD FROM KARIN SLAUGHTER**
A terrifying accident . . .
Alex Mullins knows she is one of the lucky ones. When a fatal coach crash at her school reunion killed several of her classmates, she was saved from a grisly fate.
She is haunted by what she thinks she saw that night – a vision of a skeletal woman, known by the locals as the Bonehead – a woman who brings bad luck to all that see her.
A mystery waiting to be solved . . .
Now a police officer in Gloucestershire, Alex fights to overcome the past by helping other people. But when her path crosses with someone who was there that fateful night, her new life begins to unravel at the seams.
What really happened the night of the crash? And what does she have to do for the petrifying Bonehead to finally leave her be?
A new crime thriller from the Queen of Fear – prepare to be terrified by Bonehead . . .
PRAISE FOR BONEHEAD:
‘As shocking and sinister as anything Hayder has written. It is an unexpected, bittersweet treat to be back in the hands of one of our very best crime writers’ Observer
‘Hayder was one of the UK’s most accomplished crime writers, and her final book, Bonehead, proves to be among her most memorable’ Financial Times
‘Bonehead is a triumph, with Mo Hayder’s customary sleight of hand, attention to detail, and brilliantly authentic character creation. It perfectly wraps urban myths within the frailty of men’s follies, and weaves a tale that unfolds piece by piece until you can bear it no more and rush through to the final, extraordinary pages. If this had to be Mo Hayder’s legacy, then it’s a fitting one. I inhaled this book’ Helen Fields, author of The Institution
‘Deliciously dark and horrifying, perfectly balanced and plotted. Stayed with me long after I’d finished reading’ Catherine Cooper, author of The Chalet
‘A rivetingly dark read; I was sucked in by its python-like coils and taken somewhere very dark; I ended up racing to the end, knowing something terrible was coming. A powerful story with memorably characters, not least the glowering forest, and a terrific back story’ Jane Shemilt, bestselling author of Daughter
‘Mo Hayder’s final hurrah is truly chilling, a dark and gripping read that left me guessing at every turn. I’m privileged to have received this very special read’ Natalie Chandler, author of What We Did
‘This is everything you expect from a Mo Hayder: a little bit weird, a little bit nasty, with characters you love from the off. Creepy as hell. And an ending that made my blood run cold’ Sam Holland, author of The Echo Man
PRAISE FOR MO HAYDER:
‘Hayder has a profound ability to shock and surprise her readers’ Karin Slaughter
‘Oozes sinisterness from the first page’ Entertainment Weekly
‘With Mo Hayder you never know where you are going until you get there’ Times
‘A first-class shocker . . . a frightening mix of forensics, thrills, analytical police work and poetic images’ Guardian
‘Wickedly constructed . . . The detail, if you can stomach it, is fascinating’ Daily Telegraph
‘Lacerating’ Independent
‘Stomach-churning, fast-paced, top-notch’ Sunday Express
‘Haunting, lyrical, disturbing, important, suspenseful and wonderfully written’ Harlan Coben
‘This is writing of breathtaking power and poetry’ Tess Gerritsen
‘An authentically disturbing, gripping winner’ Financial Times

THE #1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER: a hilarious and heartfelt new autobiography from the national treasure Sir David Jason
‘There are British telly icons and then there is Sir David Jason. This book is such gold . . . an absolute delight’ ZOE BALL
___________________________
‘During my life and career I have been given all sorts of advice and learned huge amounts from some great and enormously talented people. I’ve been blessed to play characters such as Derek Trotter, Granville, Pop Larkin and Frost, who have changed my life in all sorts of ways, and taught me lessons that go far beyond the television set. And I’ve worked a few things out for myself as well, about friendship, ambition, rejection, success, failure, adversity and fortune.
With any luck, some of these thoughts and observations will chime with episodes and challenges you have faced, or are facing, in your own life. And if they don’t. . . well, hopefully, at the very least you’ll get to have a good old laugh at my expense.
So lean back, pour yourself a glass, and try not to fall through the bar flap . . .’

One dead Santa. A town full of suspects. Will you discover the truth?
Christmas in Lower Lockwood, and the Fairway Players are busy rehearsing their festive pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk, to raise money for the church roof appeal.

Sarah-Jane is fending off threats to her new position as Chair, the fibreglass beanstalk might be full of asbestos, and a someone is intent on ruining the panto even before the curtain goes up.
Of course there’s also the matter of the dead body. Who could possibly have had the victim on their naughty list? Join lawyers Femi and Charlotte as they read the round robins, examine the emails and pore over the police transcripts. Will the show go on?

*THE #3 IRISH BESTSELLER*
‘Momentous and epic’ BERNARD MACLAVERTY
‘Superb and moving’ JOHN BANVILLE
‘A lovely, piercing book’ SEBASTIAN BARRY
Three generations. More than a century of famine, war, violence and love.
At sixteen Nancy, the only member of her family to survive the Great Famine, leaves her small island for the mainland. Finding work in a grand house on the edge of Cork City, she feels irrepressibly drawn to the charismatic gardener Michael Egan, sparking a love affair that soon throws her into a fight for her life.
In 1920, Nancy’s son Jer has lived through battles of his own as a soldier in the Great War. Now drunk in a jail cell, he struggles to piece together where he has come from, and who he wants to be.
And in the early 1980s, Jer’s youngest child Nellie is nearing the end of her life in a council house, moments away from her childhood home; remembering the night when she and her family stole back something that was rightfully theirs, she imagines what lies in store for those who will survive her.

The sword has the power of Britain in its steel, men will follow and fight for whoever wields it…
Dark Age Britain. A legendary hero rises to unite a divided and threatened land…
A country left in ruins after the fall of the Roman Empire is plundered and broken. Saxon hordes have invaded and conquered the East coast of Britain in a blood-soaked Great War which tore the old kingdoms apart. From Bernicia to Kent, land and kingdoms are now under Saxon rule. But these new conquerors want more…
Britain’s remaining kingdoms are jaded by the constant threat of war, their Kings old, alliances fickle and frayed. It seems Britain must fall enslaved to the brutal and marauding conquerors from across the sea.
But no one counted on a new and fearsome warlord. A warrior granted power by the druid Merlin through the mighty sword Excalibur. A man with no Kingdom but a quest to unite the country and fight back against the baying Saxon warriors? He is known as the legendary Arthur.
The compelling, fast-paced start of a brand new series from bestselling writer Peter Gibbons. Perfect for the fans of Bernard Cornwell.
Praise for the series:
‘Bristling with intense action, Excalibur is a grounded and brutal retelling of Arthurian myth set in the grim landscape of Dark Age Britain.’ – Richard Cullen
‘A power house of a novel told with the pace of a charging war horse. Well rounded characters brought to vivid life in Britain’s Dark Age. Not a book to be missed.’ – Adam Lofthouse
”The way the story of Arthur should be told! Real, gritty and packed with action!” – Donovan Cook
‘Riveting, page-turning action that shows Arthur growing from a frightened youngster into a confident warlord. Excalibur is a fresh new take on an old legend that readers will find hard to put down.’ – Steven A McKay
‘Epic, brutal action’ – Matthew Harffy
‘A gripping tale in which our distant British history is brought to life. A must-read for any Arthurian fan.’ – Reader Review
‘First class. I could not put this book down. Absolutely riveting. Action packed throughout. I eagerly await the next book in the series.’ – Reader Review
‘This was full of battles, violence, politics and is a fresh new take on Arthurian legend. It’s the first in a series that’s left me hungering for more’ – Reader Review
‘A superbly atmospheric tale of redemption that pitches the English against Viking raiders and resounds with the fierceness of battle-hardened warriors’ – MJ Porter
‘Thunderously atmospheric! Gibbons once again proves himself a master of Viking & Dark Age lore.’ – Gordon Doherty
