  The definitive, insider history of the often turbulent political relationship between the Liberals and Labour.
  Natural allies or fierce competitors? For the past century, Britain's two major centre-left parties have co-existed in sometimes harmonious but more often fraught duopoly, from the 1903 agreement that a prominent Liberal complained was 'nursing into life a serpent which would sting their party to death' to the 1976–77 pact that gave us the phrase 'turkeys voting for Christmas' and beyond, to the failed negotiations that led to the controversial 2010–15 Lib Dem–Conservative coalition.
  Charting 100 years of British political history, Serpents, Goats and Turkeys explores the formal and informal arrangements that have existed between the parties, covering electoral deals, support for minority governments, formal pacts and full coalitions. What have been the overlaps of policy and ideology, and where have the parties been most divided? What explains the periods of co-operation but also the unwillingness or inability to work together for any significant time?
  In the wake of the 2024 'Loveless Landslide', former coalition Cabinet minister David Laws also draws on unpublished records and private diaries from the past thirty years of Lib–Lab wrangling to consider the likely options in the event of a future hung parliament. Should the parties work together? Would they be able to? And what are the prospects for voting reform? The answers to such questions will have major implications for British democracy and the future of our politics.

  his audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. 
  Scammers aren’t just getting smarter — they’re getting personal. Fooled: Inside the World of Scams and How to Fight Back pulls back the curtain on the modern con, showing how good, honest people get caught in bad deals, fake investments, and digital traps that look too real to question. 
  Written by serial entrepreneur Joel Bouck, who’s been burned and fought his way back, Fooled blends real-life stories with practical recovery strategies. You’ll meet victims who lost fortunes, families who fell for “voice clones,” and investors blindsided by people they trusted. Each story ends with the tools and mindset you need to protect yourself — and those you love — from the next hit. 
  This isn’t another fear-based true-crime story. It’s a guide for rebuilding confidence after loss, recognizing manipulation before it happens, and creating your own digital armor in an AI-driven world. Whether you’ve been scammed, know someone who has, or just want to stay one step ahead, Fooled is your wake-up call — and your roadmap back to trust.

  This work provides a concise synthesis of the key insights and analysis from I’ll Be Gone in the Dark. It is an independent summary, not the original book, and has no affiliation with or endorsement from the original publication. Created for readers who want a clear, thought-provoking overview, it distills the central themes and ideas while preserving the depth and relevance of the work. 
  This book follows a true-crime journalist’s obsessive hunt for the man she dubbed the Golden State Killer, a predator who committed a long series of rapes and murders across California in the 1970s and 1980s. Drawing on police files, survivor interviews, and online sleuth communities, it reconstructs the crimes in chilling detail while tracing the author’s own late-night research, fears, and hopes. The narrative becomes a story about persistence, trauma, and the way collective effort and new forensic tools can finally pierce decades of silence.

  Dive into the dark yet irresistibly compelling world of "The Story of an Awakening", a psychological thriller about an artist stripped of everything but his unquenchable thirst for truth. 
  Elias Burton was once a dazzling painter whose canvases captivated audiences—until the betrayal of someone close shattered not only his career but his faith in himself. For ten years, he lived in the silence of his own oblivion, hiding from the world and from his own memories. Then mysterious letters—"Dawn," "Shadow," "Labyrinth"…—slipped beneath his door and stirred in him something far stronger than despair. 
  From his dusty studio to the crumbling mansion at 17 Elm Street, Elias follows a trail of symbols and mirror-like reflections that hide clues to a long-buried truth. Each page is a brushstroke on the canvas of his fate: the tension tightens, the past takes shape, and deep within the mirrored glass glimmers the key capable of resurrecting a life laid waste. 
  Perfectly balanced between psychological drama and enigmatic investigation, "The Story of an Awakening" will make you feel every emotion alongside its hero, keeping you on edge until the very end. Open the book—and experience one man's journey back from the shadows to claim his right to the dawn.

  What does it mean to be a hero—in sports and in life? 
  Heroes aren’t just the ones who bring home medals. Hero Redefined delves into the lesser-known stories of Olympic athletes—and a couple of special Olympic venues—that challenge the conventional narrative of glory and gold. In riveting personal profiles exploring herculean feats of strength, perseverance, and sportsmanship, award-winning sports journalist Doug Levy offers a new vision of heroism. There is more than one path to greatness, and the extraordinary acts of resilience and personal sacrifice by these athletes have left an indelible mark on the spirit of the Olympic games in quiet but fundamental ways through the ages. 
  Each chapter reveals a different face of heroism—immense resilience, strength of character, unparalleled sportsmanship, an incredible zeal to compete, and a seemingly superhuman will to finish. Throughout, Levy celebrates the heroic human spirit and its relentless drive to carry the torch forward—both inside and outside of the Olympic Games.

  Wired Our Own Way is the first anthology of personal essays written by autistic Irish adults.
  2025 figures show that one in twenty Irish schoolchildren are now identified as autistic, and society's understanding of neurodiversity is evolving rapidly. As awareness grows, many adults are also discovering this aspect of themselves, finding greater clarity and self-compassion in the process.
  This bestselling anthology explores the profound impact of receiving a diagnosis and highlights the wide range of experiences within the neurodivergent community in Ireland. Through deeply personal and insightful essays, the contributors reveal the many ways this identity shapes their lives – proving there is no single way of being autistic.
  From meltdowns to mental health, from early diagnoses to late-in-life revelations, and from cultural stereotypes to workplace challenges, this collection offers a rich, multifaceted perspective on life beyond the neurotypical lens. A celebration of individuality, resilience, and self-discovery, it shines a light on voices that deserve to be heard.
