At the end of a particularly gruelling summer day, Ash Rashid is heading home to his wife and kids when he discovers a pair of bodies, shot execution style, in the front seat of a crashed vehicle. As the first officer on the scene, Ash finds himself and his department twenty minutes behind a killer in a race where every second counts. With two victims down and a third unaccounted for, the clock is ticking and Ash must find the killer before he strikes again.

When Jo, Bessie and Frannie move to their new house in the country, they discover an Enchanted Wood near their home where magic is everywhere and trees whisper secrets to one another. In the middle of the wood grows the most magical tree in the world – The Faraway Tree.

In "The Enchanted Wood", the children waste no time exploring the enormous tree and while doing so, soon meet some strange creatures who live amongst the branches. Together with their new friends, Moonface, Saucepan Man and Silky, the children set off on some fantastic adventures in the lands that come and go at the top of the tree.
"The Magic Faraway Tree" is the second book in the trilogy, where we return to the Enchanted Wood with Joe, Beth, Frannie and their cousin Rick set out on some all-new adventures in the lands at the top of the Faraway Tree. Once again they are joined by their friends Moon-Face, Saucepan Man and Silky.

The third and final book in The Magic Faraway Tree series sees Curious Connie come to stay with Jo, Bessie and Frannie. The three children are keen to introduce Connie to "The Folk of the Faraway Tree" – but Connie doesn't believe in magic, or fairy-folk, and pours scorn on everything she sees.

The trouble is, if Evie won't tell them her secrets, how can they stop her from making a huge mistake?
 
How Hard Can Love Be?
All Amber wants is a little bit of love. Her mum has never been the caring type, even before she moved to California, got remarried and had a personality transplant. But Amber's hoping that spending the summer with her can change all that.
