  'Daniel Wiles connects us viscerally to the past we have buried the history we choose to ignore' Hilary Mantel
  1950s, Chile. Bernardo has journeyed to his childhood home, tucked deep into the Patagonian wilderness – though it seems little more than a shack to his young son, James. The place is nothing like England, where James was born. The land is harsh. Unyielding.
  Then Bernardo sees it. Short and lean and striking. The puma, with its huge paws on the earth. What will a father do to ensure his family's survival? And what might he become when survival is no longer an option?
  Thrilling and powerfully atmospheric, The Puma is a novel about fathers and sons, and our desperate attempts to tame the wilderness of the past.

  In the unforgiving landscape of South Australia, 1883, a young boy vanishes during a dust storm, and a whole town fractures under the weight of fear, guilt, and hope. The Sun Walks Down is a haunting, deeply human exploration of loss, resilience, and the invisible ties that bind a community together. Told through the eyes of grieving parents, searching strangers, an outsider artist, a conflicted reverend, and an Aboriginal tracker whose quiet wisdom cuts through chaos, this story unfolds as both a suspenseful search and an emotional reckoning.
   
  Each chapter draws you deeper into the heart of a town unraveling—and transforming. With lyrical intensity and cinematic atmosphere, this powerful novel invites listeners to confront what lies beneath the surface when life is interrupted, and what it truly means to find meaning in the aftermath.
   
  Perfect for listeners drawn to emotionally immersive fiction, historical drama, and the profound beauty found in human connection against all odds.

  In Agatha Christie’s classic, Five Little Pigs, beloved detective Hercule Poirot races to solve a case from out of the past. 
  Beautiful Caroline Crale was convicted of poisoning her husband, but just like the nursery rhyme, there were five other “little pigs” who could have done it: Philip Blake (the stockbroker), who went to market; Meredith Blake (the amateur herbalist), who stayed at home; Elsa Greer (the three-time divorcée), who had her roast beef; Cecilia Williams (the devoted governess), who had none; and Angela Warren (the disfigured sister), who cried all the way home. 
  Sixteen years later, Caroline’s daughter is determined to prove her mother’s innocence, and Poirot just can’t get that nursery rhyme out of his mind.

  In turn of the century England, the Jolivet family lives a charmed existence. Daughters of a wealthy vineyard owner and a French pianist, aspiring actress Marguerite, the eldest of three, and her sister Inez, a virtuosa violinist, move to London. Soon the two are being celebrated in the highest social circles. Marguerite takes the stage name Rita, and quickly draws the attention of legendary theater producer Charles Frohman. While filming in Italy, she's courted by a charismatic aristocrat, while Inez has already found love and travels the world with her husband. 
   
  Yet soon, war is raging across Europe. While in New York, Rita receives word from Inez that their brother is about to enlist. Hoping to see him, Rita books a ticket on the fastest steamer available: the RMS Lusitania. But the ship sails under a British flag, and the German government warns that all such vessels are fair game. Few believe Germany would risk attacking a ship carrying Americans. Once aboard, Rita is delighted to discover both Charles and her brother-in-law as fellow passengers. The days pass in a haze of pleasurable pursuits, and the comforts of the luxury ocean liner are almost enough to calm Rita's unease. But as the ship nears Liverpool, every assumption will be tested, and Rita, her family, and the world, will be changed forever by the voyage's infamous and catastrophic end . . .
