  It's the 1970s and Anne thought a fresh start in a northern town would be the adventure of a lifetime. But her husband, Thomas, has other plans. While he's busy with his career, Anne struggles to adapt to a new culture, a growing family, and a marriage that seems to be unravelling in ways she doesn't understand. As the years pass, Anne finds herself tangled in an emotional web she can't escape - a web of coercive control that, at the time, didn't have a name. 
  Her world becomes a constant balancing act: love and fear, joy and dread, commitment and silence. Each day, she wonders if she's doing the right thing, as Thomas's emotional manipulation grows more extreme, and his terrifying retribution threatens her at every turn. With shame weighing her down and her children's safety in the balance, Anne is trapped in a cycle of confusion and guilt. 
  But when Thomas crosses a line, Anne is faced with an impossible choice: stay or leave? The question becomes a matter of survival. 
  This raw, compelling story of marriage, manipulation, and the quiet courage it takes to break free from an abusive relationship will resonate with anyone who has ever faced the cost of loving someone who isn't what they seem.

  Try Not to Be Strange - The...

  On his fifteenth birthday, in the summer of 1880, future science-fiction writer M.P. Shiel sailed with his father and the local bishop from their home in the Caribbean out to the nearby island of Redonda—where, with pomp and circumstance, he was declared the island’s king. A few years later, when Shiel set sail for a new life in London, his father gave him some advice: Try not to be strange. It was almost as if the elder Shiel knew what was coming. 
  Try Not to Be Strange: The Curious History of the Kingdom of Redonda tells, for the first time, the complete history of Redonda’s transformation from an uninhabited, guano-encrusted island into a fantastical and international kingdom of writers. With a cast of characters including forgotten sci-fi novelists, alcoholic poets, vegetarian publishers, Nobel Prize frontrunners, and the bartenders who kept them all lubricated while angling for the throne themselves, Michael Hingston details the friendships, feuds, and fantasies that fueled the creation of one of the oddest and most enduring micronations ever dreamt into being. Part literary history, part travelogue, part quest narrative, this cautionary tale about what happens when bibliomania escapes the shelves and stacks is as charming as it is peculiar—and blurs the line between reality and fantasy so thoroughly that it may never be entirely restored.

  'From incredible highs to devastating lows, the championship battles and mental turmoil, Derby winners and cancer heartbreak, Pat has left more than a legacy. Read this and you will agree with me – he is iconic.' RUBY WALSH
  'Pat tells his story with the same honesty and humility that defined him as a person. He was a remarkable man and his is a compelling story.' SIR ANTHONY MCCOY
  'Pat was an amazing man, a man of dignity who went about life with a smile on his face. He is an example to all of us.' FRANKIE DETTORI
  'Inspiring, heart-breaking and unforgettable.' BROUGH SCOTT
  Pat Smullen was one of the greatest Irish jockeys ever. In a career laden with success, his position as one of the country's best ever flat jockeys was long established. And yet, despite being a nine-time champion jockey, his humility defined him.
  It was this strength of character that sustained him when, in March 2018, Pat was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. There was never any self-pity. He just dealt with it. And more than that, he brought it centre stage: raising funds and awareness, and channelling his energies into helping others. Pat was a champion in all aspects of life, no matter what setbacks were thrown at him. Tragically, his life was cut short far too early in September 2020.
  Written in the months before his death, with the assistance of Donn McClean and completed by Pat's wife, Frances Crowley, Champion is the inspirational story of the jockey whose legacy lives on.
