  The Great Elvish Bake-Off Just Got DeadlyToday Candy Cane Hollow smells like butter and bravado. I'm helping at the Elvish Culinary Guild's grand induction and tasting, and Gilbert, our house-elf at Claus Cottage, has made the finalists' bench with his prized mince pie.Then the celebrity headliner takes one bite of a showpiece pie and drops. Guild security locks the doors while city police sweep the kitchens. Whispers fly: a rival with a temper, an apprentice with something to prove, a sponsor with money on the line, a producer who prefers ratings to recipes.It doesn't matter what else I hear; the police decide the killer is Gilbert. They circle the pantry, question his spice tins, and treat every crumb like a confession. With Mrs. Claus calming frantic caterers and Nick keeping me in cocoa and courage, I start sifting clues—swapped tins, "secret" blends, alibis that crumble under heat. This isn't bad pastry; it's careful malice.I'm not letting them pin a murder on my friend. I need answers before the Guild shutters the finals and Gilbert is led out in cuffs.

  Sweetpea TV series starring Ella Purnell now on Sky Atlantic! 
  Everyone’s favourite serial killer is back, and she’s more unpredictable than ever… 
  Readers LOVE Thorn in My Side 
  ‘Perfect for fans of a snarky narrative’ NetGalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 
  ‘I absolutely loved it’ NetGalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 
  Sometimes, you can be your own worst enemy… 
  Rhiannon Lewis thought she finally had it all: thanks to the pandemic she’s had to keep a much lower profile but has found happiness with her fiancé Rafael and his family. For once, she is surrounded by people who love her for who she is (or who they think she is). 
  After over 800 days without murdering anyone, the woman formerly known as the Sweetpea Killer thinks she might have finally turned over a new leaf.  
  That is until her soon-to-be sister-in-law has a run in with her abusive ex, and Rhiannon rediscovers her taste for revenge. This time, with a loving family in tow, the stakes are much higher. Wedded bliss and life as a normal person are finally within Rhiannon's reach, but you can never keep a good serial killer down. 
  Can you? 
  Praise for CJ Skuse: 
  ‘This darkly comic novel…has the potential to become a cult classic’ Daily Mail 
  ‘Dark, depraved and devilishly delicious. A full throttle savage and satirical thriller’ John Marrs 
  The humorous undertones of this crime fiction novel are a testament to C.J. Skuse's ability to weave a narrative that is as thrilling as it is blackly comedic. Rhiannon's domestic life, once a source of stability, becomes a backdrop for her feminist struggle against her own dark impulses. 
  For fans of Freida Mcfadden (The Boyfriend), L.M. Chilton (Everyone in the Group Chat Dies), Sarah Bonner (Her Perfect Twin), Asia Mackay (The Nursery), and John Marrs (Dead in the Water).

  Explorers in a hot-air balloon land on an island, figuring that they must be the only inhabitants. However, they discover a bullet inside a wounded animal--one which must have been fired within the previous three months. The men propose to build a canoe so they can survey the island in search of other human life. Many adventures follow, one after another. They find a large chest filled with provisions and tools. Setting off in search of who might have left the chest, the travelers make their way through the Mercy River to the sea. During their trek, the men find remnants of the balloon they arrived in. Back at camp (Granite House) they find their ladder to the house has been removed--by invading orangutans. Soon the animals are defeated, except for one, whom they tame to become a house servant. The men construct a bridge over the river. They protect their abode by surrounding it on all sides with water. They undertake projects to make their colony habitable and comfortable. They create a hydraulic lift to replace the ladder. They build a seagoing boat for further exploration. Eventually they discover another human on Tabor Island, bringing him back to their now-well-stocked colony. (Bill Boerst) In other translations this book is part of "The Mysterious Island"
