  Healing through therapy, spirituality, community, and most importantly, speaking the truth to her children 25 years later, Patty’s mission is to help other mothers and anyone else who may be struggling, to help heal their past and transform their lives.

  Cleopatra - Last Pharaoh of Egypt

  Cleopatra VII was born into the powerful Ptolemaic dynasty, a Greek ruling family that had governed Egypt since the time of Alexander the Great. As the daughter of Ptolemy XII, she was raised in a world of immense political intrigue and royal rivalries. Unlike many of her predecessors, Cleopatra was highly educated, mastering several languages, including Egyptian—an unusual skill among the Greek rulers of Egypt. Her intelligence, charm, and deep understanding of politics set her apart as a leader destined for greatness. 
  From a young age, Cleopatra was immersed in the complexities of governance. She studied philosophy, mathematics, and diplomacy, acquiring knowledge that would later aid her in navigating the dangerous world of ancient power struggles. While her early years were marked by luxury, they were also shadowed by uncertainty. Egypt, under her father’s rule, was heavily dependent on Rome, and political instability threatened the Ptolemaic dynasty. Cleopatra observed these tensions closely, preparing herself for the inevitable challenge of ruling a divided kingdom. 
  When Ptolemy XII died in 51 BCE, Cleopatra, at just eighteen years old, ascended to the throne alongside her younger brother, Ptolemy XIII. According to Egyptian tradition, royal siblings often married to secure dynastic rule, and Cleopatra was expected to govern jointly with her brother-husband. However, she had little interest in sharing power. She quickly demonstrated her political ambition, seeking to rule Egypt independently. Her intelligence and strategic mindset made her a formidable leader, but her brother’s advisors viewed her as a threat.

  An unconventional memoir of conjuring the uncertain past and a long-lost homeland, and a vital document of one family's journey through world history. 
   
   
   
  With the fall of Saigon on April 30, 1975, the U.S. war in Vietnam ended, but the refugee crisis was only beginning. Among the millions of people who fled Vietnam by boat were Vinh Nguyen, along with his mother and siblings, and his father, who left separately and then mysteriously vanished. 
   
   
   
  Decades later, Nguyen goes looking for the story of his father. What he discovers is a sea of questions drifting above sunken truths. To come to terms with the past, Nguyen must piece together the debris of history with family stories that have been scattered across generations and continents, kept for decades in broken hearts and guarded silences. 
   
   
   
  The Migrant Rain Falls in Reverse takes listeners on a poignant tour of disappeared refugee camps, abandoned family homes, and the lives that could have been. As the fiftieth anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War approaches, this powerful memoir is timelier and more important than ever, illuminating the stories, real and imagined, that become buried in the rubble of war.

  Paddy Mayne - Lt Col Blair...

  ‘Paddy’ Mayne was one of the most outstanding special forces leaders of the Second World War. Hamish Ross’s authoritative study follows Mayne from solicitor and a rugby international to troop commander in the Commandos and then the SAS, whose leader he later became and whose annals he graced, winning the DSO and three bars, the Croix de Guerre and the Légion d’Honneur. 
   
  Mayne’s achievements attracted attention, and after his early death legends emerged, based largely on anecdote and assertion. Hamish Ross’s closely researched biography challenges much of the received version, using contemporary sources, the official war diaries, the chronicle of 1 SAS, Mayne’s papers and diaries, and a number of extended interviews with key contemporaries. It has the support of the Mayne family and the SAS Regimental Association. 
   
  In Ross’s analysis Mayne is a dynamic, yet principled and thoughtful man, committed to the unit’s original concepts; not flawless, but whose leadership qualities and tactical brilliance in the field secured the reputation of the SAS.
