  Six has always been a number we group things around – Six of the best, six of one half a dozen of another, six feet under, six pack, six degrees of separation and a sixth sense are but a few of the ways we use this number. 
   
  Such is its popularity that we thought it is also a very good way of challenging and investigating an author’s work to give width, brevity, humour and depth across six of their very best. 
   
  In this series we gather together authors whose short stories both rivet the attention and inspire the imagination to visit their gems in a series of six, to roam across an author’s legacy in a few short hours and gain a greater understanding of their writing and, of course, to be lavishly entertained by their ideas, their narrative and their way with words. 
   
  These stories can be surprising and sometimes at a tangent to what we expected, but each is fully formed and a marvellous adventure into the world and words of a literary master.

  TV series starring Ella Purnell now on Sky Atlantic! 
  The last person who called me ‘Sweetpea’ ended up dead… 
  ’I haven’t killed anyone for three years and I thought that when it happened again I’d feel bad. Like an alcoholic taking a sip of whisky. But no. Nothing. I had a blissful night’s sleep. Didn’t wake up at all. And for once, no bad dream either. This morning I feel balanced. Almost sane, for once.’ 
  Rhiannon is your average girl next door, settled with her boyfriend and little dog…but she’s got a killer secret. 
  Although her childhood was haunted by a famous crime, Rhinannon’s life is normal now that her celebrity has dwindled. By day her job as an editorial assistant is demeaning and unsatisfying. By evening she dutifully listens to her friend’s plans for marriage and babies whilst secretly making a list. 
  A kill list. 
  From the man on the Lidl checkout who always mishandles her apples, to the driver who cuts her off on her way to work, to the people who have got it coming, Rhiannon’s ready to get her revenge. 
  Because the girl everyone overlooks might be able to get away with murder…

  🐐 Dairy goat farmer and cheesemaker Nanny Nightingale is preparing for the County Fair when her prize-winning baby goat is kidnapped and the fair's dairy judge—a notoriously strict official with shady connections—is found dead in her barn, surrounded by suspiciously chewed competition documents. The police suspect a rival farmer, but Nanny notices the tooth marks don't match her goats and the victim's scoring sheets contain coded symbols about milk quality manipulation. With her farm under scrutiny and the farming community butting heads, Nanny must hoof it to solve the case. Assisted by her 4-H dairy club and the handsome veterinary odontologist analyzing tooth impressions, Nanny uncovers a scheme involving goat identity theft, fraudulent milk records, and a sophisticated operation switching premium breeding stock. From suspicious hoof prints that reveal unfamiliar animals to milk composition that doesn't match the breed standards, every clue tells a story. But when Nanny discovers the victim was systematically sabotaging small dairy operations to drive them out of business, she realizes the killer is protecting family farms more valuable than any blue ribbon. With the county fair approaching and the real goat-napper still milking the situation, Nanny must separate the truth from the whey before her own farm gets permanently curdled.
