  Like a piece of wisdom passed down through generations which no one questioned or even thought about too hard, it was just something everyone knew, a rule to be followed. 
  Don’t go to Almanby. 
   
  Heather, Rachel and Antonia are going to Almanby. 
   
  Heather needs to find her boyfriend who, like so many, went and never came back. 
   
  Rachel has a mysterious package to deliver, and her life depends on it. 
   
  And Antonia – poor, lovestruck Antonia – just wants to spend the day with Heather. 
   
  Off they set through the idyllic yet perilous English countryside, in which nature thrives in abundance and summer lasts forever.  The further they travel through ever-shifting geography and strange voices from the radio, the harder it becomes to tell friend from foe. 
   
  Creepy, dreamlike, unsettling and unforgettable - you are about to join the privileged few who come to understand exactly why we don't go to Almanby. 
   
  “A surprising folk horror about everyday encounters with the incredible. Vulnerable, rooted characters come of age in a hazy, hypnotic book that reflects contemporary Britain through a distorted lens.” Kevin Power, Dr Will Smith & Zoe West – 2024 Nero Fiction Award judges

  Jesus the Troublemaker

  'Jesus the Troublemaker' is an immersive account of the dramatic last week of the life of Jesus of Nazareth, or rather Yeshua Ish-Natzaret.  He was a Galilean Jew who spoke Aramaic  with a northern accent.  Full of dramatic incidents and confrontational dialogues, the book uncovers many events behind the bare record of the Gospels of Mark, Luke and John.         For example, why did Yeshua arrive late at the Temple for his triumphal entry?  Because he had just walked 18 miles uphill from Jericho!  Why were the chief priests so hostile to Yeshua?  Because his clearing the traders out of the Temple was not a one-off demonstration, it was a four day occupation!  Why are there different accounts of the first Easter Day?  This is solved by the simple question, Where was Simon Peter?       Sister Hilda Mary wrote, "Well!  Holy Week has come alive in a new way and will never be the same again.  The book has finally removed set images and confusions stuck in my mind  from so many years and something much more vibrant and alive has replaced them."      Premier Christianity wrote: "The main section of the book is a narrative account of Jesus’ last eight days, written as fiction but still faithful to the Gospel accounts …. If Andy Roland’s desire is to bring the story of Jesus alive to a new audience and answer questions about the cultural context, the book succeeds."

  ✂️ Vintage sewing tool expert and restoration specialist Ripley Stitch is curating a historical sewing implements exhibit when the exhibit's major donor—a ruthless fashion historian—is found dead in her workshop, an antique seam ripper mysteriously embedded in a priceless Victorian gown. The police suspect a tragic accident, but Ripley notices the ripper's blade shows modern sharpening marks and the damaged gown reveals hidden layers of fabric that tell a different story. With her restoration business under scrutiny and the textile community in an uproar, Ripley must carefully unpick the layers of deception. Assisted by her conservation colleagues and the handsome textile analyst examining fabric degradation, Ripley uncovers a scheme involving garment forgery, stolen historical costumes, and a sophisticated operation altering museum-quality pieces. From suspicious stitch removal patterns that reveal multiple handlers to fabric fading that doesn't match the era, every torn thread tells a story. But when Ripley discovers the victim was systematically "authenticating" forged historical garments for insurance fraud, she realizes the killer is protecting a fashion legacy more valuable than any single piece. With the exhibit opening imminent and the real forger still cutting corners, Ripley must stitch together the evidence before her own reputation gets permanently torn apart.
