  At nine years old, Marianne Richmond's life is upended when she collapses with full-body convulsions. "Pinched nerve," says the ER doctor. But when one episode becomes many, it's clear something is wrong. Afraid to be at school, in her body, and in her life, Marianne desperately hopes for help and healing. But her emotionally unavailable mother refuses medication on Marianne's behalf, preferring prayer and homeopathy. 
   
   
   
  At age 18, a full-body seizure in Marianne’s dorm room leads her to a diagnosis, medication, and neurological intervention. Physically, Marianne feels "fixed," but emotional healing proves more elusive. In the years to come, Marianne becomes a parent and writes a new story for her life. She authors children's books that touch millions of lives, each of them celebrating a mother's unconditional love. When her mother becomes ill, Marianne has a choice to make: will she be present for the mother who rarely felt present to her? 
   
   
   
  If You Were My Daughter is a story of learning to hear your own voice, of one daughter's return to wholeness, and a story of accepting that a mother's best can still fall far too short. Richmond illuminates how the stories we're born into shape the ones we tell about ourselves—and reminds us that we have the powerful permission to develop a new relationship with what is difficult in our lives.

  Great and Horrible News: Murder...

  ‘Grimly fascinating … engrossing’ Daily Mail  
  NINE HISTORIC CRIMES. ONE FAMILIAR OBSESSION. 
  In early modern England, murder truly was most foul. Trials were gossipy events packed to the rafters with noisome spectators. Executions were public proceedings which promised not only gore, but desperate confessions and the grandest, most righteous human drama. Bookshops saw grisly stories of crime and death sell like hot cakes. 
  This history unfolds the true stories of murder, criminal investigation, early forensic techniques, high court trials and so much more. 
  In thrilling narrative, we follow a fugitive killer through the streets of London, citizen detectives clamouring to help officials close the net. We untangle the mystery of a suspected staged suicide through the newly emerging science of forensic pathology. We see a mother trying to clear her dead daughter’s name while other women faced the accusations – sometimes true and sometimes not – of murdering their own children. 
  These stories are pieced together from original research using coroner’s inquests, court records, parish archives, letters, diaries and the cheap street pamphlets that proliferated to satisfy a voracious public. 
  These intensely personal stories portray the lives of real people as they confronted the extraordinary crises of murder, infanticide, miscarriage and suicide. Many historical laws and attitudes concerning death and murder may strike us as exceptionally cruel, and yet many still remind us that some things never change: we are still fascinated by narratives of murder and true crime, murder trials today continue to be grand public spectacles, female killers are frequently cast as aberrant objects of public hatred and sexual desire, and suicide remains a sin within many religious organisations and was a crime in England until the 1960s. 
  Great and Horrible News! explores the strange history of death and murder in early modern England, yet the stories within may appear shockingly familiar. 
  Great and Horrible News by Blessin Adams is a riveting biography of the most notorious criminals of the Stuart and Elizabethan eras. This latest bestseller offers a new perspective on the period from 1485-1603, making it a top choice for those interested in European history. 
  For fans of Michelle Morgan (The Book of Hope), Kate Summerscale (The Peepshow), Tom Holland (The Rest is History), David Wilson (A History Of British Serial Killing), and Christopher Clark (Kaiser Wilhelm II).

  History of Quebec: A Captivating...

  Quebec’s political struggle for autonomy, independence, and the protection of its language, culture, and heritage is shrouded in ambiguity. Let us shed some light on the subject for you. 
  Why have the province’s linguistic and cultural tensions dragged on for nearly four hundred years? In what ways does it differ from the rest of Canada? Did indigenous peoples play a key role in shaping the province’s identity and culture? For what reasons did Quebec’s two sovereigntist referendums fail? And what was the Quiet Revolution?  
  The historic rivalry between Britain and France was an intense, long-standing geopolitical struggle. Relations between the empires cooled at the dawn of the modern age. Today, the nations are close allies, but the embers of Franco-Anglo strife still burn at the core of Quebec society. While Francophone nationalists stress the importance of enacting linguistic and cultural protection laws, Quebecois Anglophones and other non-Francophones claim to be increasingly marginalized by the laws and ideologies of a society ravaged by mass cultural anxiety.  
  So, what is the truth? This audiobook seeks to untangle the storied history and complexities of Canada’s rebel province. It attempts to make sense of how a province of one of the world’s most progressive countries continues to ignite conflict between its French- and English-speaking communities. 
  Some of what this audiobook examines includes the following: The early indigenous civilizations and their rapid transformations after establishing European contact;The rise of the cod and fur trade and the eventual integration of the Americas into European trade networks;
