A magical house. A secret past. A summons that could change everything.
This is the hugely-anticipated sequel to TJ Klune's The House in the
Cerulean Sea, a cosy-fantasy triumph and a New York Times bestseller.
Arthur Parnassus has built a good life on the ashes of a bad one. He’s
headmaster at an orphanage for magical children, on a peculiar island,
assisted by love-of-his-life Linus Baker. And together, they’ll do
anything to protect their extraordinary and powerful charges.
However, when Arthur is forced to make a public statement about his
dark past, he finds himself fighting for those under his care. It’s
also a fight for the better future that all magical people deserve.
Then when a new magical child joins their island home, Arthur knows
they’ve reached breaking point. The child finds power in calling
himself a monster, a name Arthur has tried so hard to banish to protect
his children. Challenged from within and without, their volatile family
might grow stronger. Or everything Arthur loves could fall apart.
Somewhere Beyond the Sea is a story of resistance, lovingly told, about
the daunting experience of fighting for the life you want to live and
doing the work to keep it.

A LOCAL MYTH. A DEADLY THREAT.
Vera Stanhope, star of ITV’s Vera, returns in the eleventh novel in
Sunday Times No. 1 bestseller Ann Cleeves’ acclaimed series.
A body is found by an early morning dog walker on the common outside
Rosebank, a care home for troubled teens. The victim is Josh, a staff
member, who never showed up to work.
DI Vera Stanhope is called out to investigate. Her only clue is the
disappearance of fourteen-year-old resident Chloe. Vera can’t bring
herself to believe that a teenager is responsible for the murder, but
even she can’t dismiss the possibility.
Vera, Joe and new team member Rosie are soon embroiled in the case, but
when a second body is found near the Three Dark Wives standing stones
in the wilds of the Northumbrian countryside, folklore and fact begin
to collide.
Vera knows she has to find Chloe to get to the truth, but it seems that
the dark secrets in their community may be far more dangerous than she
could ever have believed. . .
Meet Jessica Jones: a private investigator and retired super hero based
out of Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan, who goes from job to job as a hard
living, rough talking, loner.
And then a wealthy Upper East Side woman pays her a visit. Amber
Randall is concerned about her twin sixteen-year-olds, Lark and Fox,
who have acted and looked very different since they returned from
spending the summer with their British father in the UK. She tells
Jessica that her children have unnaturally perfect skin for teenagers
and have lost all the tics and habits that made them who they were.
They are not Lark and Fox, she tells Jessica. Something has happened to
them.
To find out more, Jessica travels to Essex to talk to their father and
once there meets Belle who is living a curiously isolated existence in
a run-down farmhouse with her guardian Debra. Jessica knows that Lark
and Fox had spent the summer with Belle—but can this unworldly teenager
really be responsible for Lark and Fox's new personas?
Jessica soon discovers that, behind Belle and Debra, evil geniuses are
playing a dangerous game with technology in order to make the world a
"better place", not caring who gets hurt, maimed or even killed in the
process. Can Jessica stop them from wreaking destruction on a whole
generation of young people?

Nothing ever happens in sleepy little Fairhill, Vermont.
The teenagers get their kicks telling ghost stories in the old
graveyard. The parents trust their kids will arrive home safe from
school. Everyone knows everyone. Curtains rarely twitch. Front doors
are left unlocked.
But this morning all of that will change.
Because Diana Brewer isn’t lying safely in her bed where she belongs.
Instead she lies in a hayfield, circled by vultures, discovered by a
local farmer.
How quickly a girl becomes a ghost. How quickly a town of friendly,
familiar faces becomes a town of suspects, a place of fear and paranoia.
Someone in Fairhill did this. Everyone wants answers.

Shrines of Gaiety and Life after Life.
Welcome to Rook Hall.
The stage is set. The players are ready. By night’s end, a murderer
will be revealed.
Ex-detective Jackson Brodie is staving off a bad case of midlife
malaise when he is called to a sleepy Yorkshire town, and the seemingly
tedious matter of a stolen painting. But one theft leads to another,
including the disappearance of a valuable Turner from Burton Makepeace,
home to Lady Milton and her family. Once a magnificent country house,
Burton Makepeace has now partially been converted into a hotel, hosting
Murder Mystery weekends.
As paying guests, a vicar, an ex-army officer, impecunious aristocrats,
and old friends converge, we are treated a fiendishly clever mystery;
one that pays homage to the masters of the genre—from Agatha Christie
to Dorothy Sayers.
Brilliantly inventive, with all of Atkinson’s signature wit, wordplay
and narrative brio, Death at the Sign of the Rook may be Jackson
Brodie’s most outrageous and memorable case yet.
It’s never easy working fire scenes.
Called to Washington, DC to analyse the victims of a mysterious arson
attack, Tempe quickly finds her misgivings justified. The fire site is
in Foggy Bottom, a neighbourhood with a colourful history, and as the
pieces start falling into place, the property’s ownership becomes more
and more suspicious.
Sensing a good story, Tempe teams up with a new ally, telejournalist
Ivy Doyle. Delving into the past, the duo learns that back in the
Thirties and Forties the home was the hangout of a group of bootleggers
and racketeers known as the Foggy Bottom Gang. Though interesting, this
fact seems irrelevant – until the son of one of the gang members is
shot dead at his farm in Virginia.
When another Foggy Bottom Gang-linked property burns to the ground,
claiming one more victim, what might have been coincidence starts to
look more like targeted attacks. As she and Ivy dig deeper, Tempe’s
instincts point towards the obvious: somehow, her every move since
coming to Washington has been anticipated in advance. And every path
forward brings with it a lethal threat.

What is my book about?
My book is about my radio stories, experiences and discoveries I've made in this fickle industry over the years. It's a book about advice, suggestions and my opinions to those who are in the industry, want to get into the industry, or who was always been fascinated by our industry. It's perfect for the novices or newbie entering the broadcasting or media and can be used as a guideline to radio folk looking at improving their trade. It's written in its simplest form so that non-radio people who love the medium can also understand how it all works. Hopefully, the stories and advice can become a shortcut if you will, to those in the industry. It would be a beneficial source of information for any student who can reference the book easily. I use the book as the basis for my lectures or speeches at universities or other tertiary institutions. Parts of the book is designed as a syllabus to be used to do better presenting, producing or management of a radio station. It had rave reviews from people who are in radio broadcasting, as well as those who are not, as it's written in the form to keep you glued most of the way. To my knowledge there are not many, if any, books in South Africa that has been written this way about the radio industry and media as a whole.
