Beschreibung

In "Juggernaut," Alice Campbell intricately weaves a narrative that explores the multifaceted nature of ambition, power, and its consequences. Set against a backdrop of a rapidly changing society, the novel employs a vivid, character-driven literary style that effortlessly blends realism with elements of psychological drama. Campbell's adept use of symbolism and rich imagery reflects contemporary themes of societal upheaval, illustrating how personal aspirations can both uplift and devastate. The text is steeped in historical context, inviting readers to ponder the repercussions of their own ambitions within the broader tapestry of human experience. Alice Campbell, a celebrated author known for her incisive character studies and deep thematic explorations, draws on her background in sociology and psychology to craft this compelling narrative. Her earlier works often reflect her keen observations of human nature, and "Juggernaut" serves as a culmination of her insightful inquiries into the human psyche. Campbell's personal experiences, coupled with an academic understanding of societal structures, have profoundly influenced her portrayal of ambition's duality. "Juggernaut" is a must-read for those who dare to confront the complex interplay between aspiration and morality. It challenges readers to reflect upon their own motivations and the societal expectations that shape them. Campbell's masterful storytelling will resonate with anyone seeking to explore the nuances of ambition and its impact on the human condition.

    For fans of Elyssa Friedland comes a rollicking fall novel from beloved author Shauna Robinson, where the friend who left and the friend who stayed must reunite to save their hometown through the fall festival that once brought them together.  
    Lauryn Harper had a plan. A high achieving, perfectly constructed, five-year plan. But after a (totally blown out of proportion) mishap at work that plan is put to the test. 
    As punishment for her mistake she is transferred to the Ryser Charity Department, a branch of her corporation that just so happens to be located in the hometown she abandoned long ago - the same hometown that her powerful corporation is responsible for running into the ground. Horrified at the thought of returning and facing those she left behind (one in particular keeps coming to mind), Lauryn quickly comes up with a new plan: impress her boss enough that she's briskly whisked back to her big city life. 
    However, it soon becomes clear that sticking to plans isn't that simple, especially when her ex-best friend enters the charity department demanding they help revitalize the town by throwing the famous Greenstead Fall Festival. Confronted by her past wrongs, Lauryn immediately agrees to host the festival on Ryser's dime, but soon enough Lauryn is swept away in town hijinks, chaotic planning committees, and a second chance at a childhood friend that shows her why home isn't necessarily a place she has to run from.

His therapist, Dr Nea Solomon, is the only person he can trust.
    Henry's confession of spying on Russians in London doesn't get the reaction he expects. Nea has her own dark secrets to guard and refuses to see her patient again. Now frightened and on his own, a chain of events leads to murder.

He spends winter in hiding, preparing for the conflict that he knows is looming. A Russian killer catches up with him and a terrifying chase across Europe ensues. He must fade to grey, go off-grid and tramp home to England. Staying just one step ahead, he joins forces with Nea and Felicity Smith, formerly MI6's most senior female officer, previously "buried" by Nea in witness protection in Cornwall. Together, they uncover a plot hatched at Eton College forty years earlier. But who can they trust?
