Sinossi

An Honourable Betrayal is a fast-moving political thriller pitched into the turmoil of present-day Yemen.

As a decade-long political impasse divides the country, and Yemen’s humanitarian crisis deepens, there appears to be no way forward. Rising secretly from this chaos however, is a diabolical plan to unify the country. Permanently. This is led by elements of the minority Houthi high command in Sana’a, aided by an American, former trauma specialist Dr Rachel Cauvin. But as their mission unfolds, it collides with a fearless group of Yemeni women who are set on championing their own peaceful vision for Yemen’s unification. 

Many undercurrents drive the tense narrative as the plot weaves from Yemen to Saharan Niger by way of Djibouti and France before its devastating climax in one of Yemen’s most famous landmarks – the Dar al Hajar palace, Sana’a.

Hogg

Samuel R. Delany

The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.

The Silence Between Stitches -...

Tessa Marie Vaughn

After the death of her husband, Miriam retreats into the quiet rhythm of quiltmaking and life on the farm. Each stitch is a thread of memory, a safeguard against a world that has taken too much. Her days are measured in silence—safe, predictable, untouched by risk.
 
Then Levi returns.
 
Her late husband’s cousin, long absent from the community, arrives to help with the harvest. He brings quiet strength, gentle hands, and a past that lingers like unfinished seams. Miriam never asked for company, especially not from someone who once cared too much, too silently.
 
Levi has carried his own burden of guilt for years. His feelings for Miriam were always hidden, always wrong. But now, as autumn settles in and hours are shared between fences, fields, and fading light, something stirs again—soft, tentative, undeniable.
 
In a world stitched by grief and custom, can two hearts find the courage to create something new from the silence between stitches?
