It’s the heatwave summer of 1976 and 14-year-old would be poet Jackie Chadwick is newly fostered by the Walls. She desperately needs stability, but their insecure, jealous teenage daughter isn't happy about the cuckoo in the nest and sets about ousting her.
A large number of children have been leaving school for suspicious reasons, and Henrietta is convinced she knows who’s behind it. When her best friend Lina disappears, Henrietta follows the kidnapper onto the roof, into the school greenhouse, and to a whole new world - where pigs grow on trees, giant bees lurk beneath the ground, and the people have enormous goat-like horns. She makes friends with a grumpy Tree Pig called Dagenham, and a human who claims to be the world’s greatest detective, despite having solved no cases. Together, they set off to rescue Henrietta’s friends from the heavily-guarded palace, where the terrifying masked king lives, and all the children of Underspace are forced to work - as the furniture. A magical adventure that will make readers of all ages laugh, cry, and wish they were friends with a pig.Ver libro

Evil has taken control of the monastery. In search of a solution, Hildegard is drawn into a profound murder mystery driven by her worst nightmares. The Evil Abess A Cloister Mystery The bells toll. The blood dries. The prayers go on. In the year of our Lord 1123, something unpleasant is growing behind the abbey walls. It smells like murder, sounds like chanting, and behaves very much like a cover-up. Sister Hildegard has never been particularly obedient. She sees too much. She hears what isn't said. And she asks questions no nun should. Now someone is punishing sins that haven't been confessed—and the Rule of Saint Benedict offers no guidance for corpses in the cloister. The abbess says it's the Devil. Hildegard suspects something worse. Something local. A tale of sacred rituals, petty power struggles, and suspicious silence, The Evil Abess reveals what happens when the truly faithful stop forgiving—and start investigating.Ver libro
Accidentally buying a Sicilian villa for just one euro is not the great Eat, Pray, Love game changer that Brian Chapman hopes it would be. Instead, tumbledown buildings, a shortage of plumbers, and resentful locals make Brian’s drunken whim look like the biggest mistake of his chequered career so far. Who could believe that an outbreak of swearing would lead not only to cultural reconciliation but to this very Australian fish out of water finding true love in Italy? ‘A raw and comedic romp into the heart of Italy. It’s Eat, Pray, Love, Swear – an unfiltered story of finding yourself for one euro.’ MICHELLE JOHNSTONVer libro
