  'I don't seem like the type to do this sort of thing. Do I?'
  Joanna Nelson has been missing for sixty-eight hours, and Detective Constable Ruth Palmer's hopes of finding her alive are fading fast.
  Searching for answers, the young detective sits down to interview someone who might be able to help. He's a devoted son, a successful businessman and a respectable member of society. But as the minutes slip away, the detective starts to suspect that all is not what it seems...
  Inspired by real events, Jamie Armitage's play An Interrogation is a nail-biting, nerve-shredding exploration of justice and deception.
  It received a critically acclaimed, sold-out run at the 2023 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and transferred to Hampstead Theatre Downstairs, London, in 2025.

  My Grandfather's God

  In My Grandfather's God, David Somerfleck invites readers into a poetic journey through the vast landscape of human experience—where love and loss, spirituality and skepticism, pain and transcendence intersect. 
  Each poem is a revelation—sometimes tender, sometimes unflinching—exploring how belief, memory, and identity shape our understanding of self and the cosmos. Within these pages, the divine is questioned, confronted, and occasionally found in the quiet corners of everyday life. 
  Themes range from the generational weight of faith and family to the scars left by abuse, the solace of love, the ache of loss, and the elusive beauty of truth. These poems move between the intimate and the infinite, where personal wounds echo against the backdrop of cosmic thought and hard-won wisdom. 
  My Grandfather's God is at once deeply personal and universally resonant—a collection for anyone who has wrestled with the unseen, questioned what they were taught, or sought meaning amid both deception and revelation.

  The Complete Poems of Emily Brontë brings together the full body of poetic work by one of the most powerful and enigmatic voices of English literature. Best known for her novel Wuthering Heights, Emily Brontë was also a poet of remarkable intensity, whose verses reveal a deeply imaginative, spiritual, and fiercely independent mind.
  
  Written largely in solitude, Brontë's poems explore themes of nature, solitude, freedom, death, faith, and the eternal struggle between the human soul and the forces that bind it. Her language is stark and elemental, often drawing on the wild landscapes of the Yorkshire moors to express inner passion and transcendence. Many of the poems reflect a longing for spiritual liberation and a defiant resistance to confinement—both physical and emotional.
  
  The collection also includes poems connected to the imaginary world of Gondal, a richly invented realm that served as a creative outlet for Brontë's most dramatic and visionary ideas. These works showcase her gift for lyrical intensity, rhythmic power, and emotional depth.
  
  The Complete Poems of Emily Brontë offers readers an intimate encounter with a singular poetic voice—one that is haunting, uncompromising, and timeless. This volume stands as an essential addition to any lover of classic poetry, revealing the profound inner world of a writer whose poetic legacy continues to inspire and captivate generations.
