Together they’re building a true house, one with a growing family of friends and allies that can help them stand against their enemies.

  Lady Veronica, now fully of House Phel, is doing her best to embrace happiness. After all, she has her hands full managing her mercurial and powerful wizard as he navigates taking his place as the head of their house, and with learning her own extraordinary ability. But she fears whatever peace they win won’t last long. When their enemies inevitably strike—including, perhaps, her own father—they must be ready to defend all they hold precious.

  What does it mean to escape when love, obligation, and habit quietly close in? In “The Escape” by Katherine Mansfield, a quiet domestic moment becomes the stage for an unspoken emotional reckoning between a husband and wife. As they prepare for an evening out, small gestures, clipped remarks, and inner reflections reveal the tensions beneath their long-standing marriage. What appears outwardly calm is charged with resentment, fatigue, and the desire - felt by both - for freedom from roles that no longer bring comfort. Mansfield masterfully exposes the psychological strain of intimacy worn thin, where politeness replaces connection and routine conceals longing. The story unfolds through subtle shifts in thought and tone, showing how escape is imagined, resisted, and quietly negotiated within the confines of everyday life. Press play and step into one of her most quietly revealing short stories - where the longing to escape is felt not in action, but in silence.

  🧶 Yarn shop owner and knitting instructor Wooly Winthrop is hosting her weekly knitting class when the town's most demanding customer is found strangled with a rare, hand-dyed yarn skein from her own inventory. The police suspect a crime of passion, but Wooly notices the yarn has been deliberately tangled in a complex knot used by sailors and the victim's knitting project contains a coded message in Morse code via knit and purl stitches. With her shop's reputation unraveling faster than a cheap sweater, Wooly must cast on her own investigation. Assisted by her loyal knitting group and the handsome sheep farmer who supplies her wool, Wooly uncovers a tangled web involving yarn smuggling, rare breed sheep theft, and a counterfeit yarn operation. From suspicious dye lots that reveal chemical anomalies to fiber content that doesn't match the label, every skein tells a story. But when Wooly discovers the victim was blackmailing local crafters about their yarn stash secrets and pattern thefts, she realizes the killer is protecting a scheme more twisted than any cable knit. With the annual Fiber Festival approaching and the real culprit still spinning lies, Wooly must weave together the clues before her own thread gets permanently cut.

  In seventy-two hours, a blockbuster exposé will reveal Victoria Stevens's multibillion-dollar startup as a massive fraud. And Victoria has gone missing. Has she faked her death, leaving her husband, Guy Sarvananthan, to face the fallout—and potential jail time? Should Guy flee to his native Sri Lanka, an outcast and a failure? Or embrace denial? Opting for the latter, he takes the corporate jet to a private Caribbean island, where the 0.0001% have gathered to decide which one of the world's biggest problems to "eradicate forever." Guy drinks and drugs his way into oblivion, through manicured jungles and aboard superyachts, amid captains of industry, legions of staff, and unlikely saboteurs. 
   
   
    
  Meanwhile, Victoria narrates her side of the story from an off-the-grid location in the California desert. In scribbled diary entries shot through with cultish self-help mantras, she plots her comeback, confident she'll prove everyone wrong. Again. 
   
   
    
  Ryan Chapman's incisive novel is a swan dive into the abyss and "Martin Amis's Money for really late, late capitalism" (Amitava Kumar, author of A Time Outside This Time).
