Fancy a spot of peaceful, dignified golf? Then West Belby, with its dark past and present traumas, is not the place for you. Hard up and desperate, the club's novice managers turn to the services of a mysterious American, who promises what he may never deliver and keeps his past a secret. Fraud, vandalism and an unexplained fire put fragile friendships and rocky relationships to the test. Old rivalries re-emerge, past loves gain new energy, ancient wrongs cry out for revenge and John Winter, a decent man with one major weakness, women, is caught in the middle of a tale of deceit, revenge, passion and humiliation, as the past returns to haunt them all. Even the tightly regulated game of golf, with its strict etiquette, buttoned-up morality, and a rule for every situation proves an unreliable restraint on the explosive emotions of its players. Off the course, moreover, there are no rules, and precious little remains buttoned-up for long! 'Winter Rules' is a rip-roaring follow-up to the popular 'The Trophy Wife'. It deals with grown-up themes in a humorous, witty and down-to earth way. The style is delightful, the characters engaging and the story turns this way and that before reaching a satisfying and surprising conclusion.

This book will change all that. What really goes on in the clubhouse and on the putting greens is a revelation and will have you laughing, crying and gasping in disbelief. And everyone will want to be a member at West Belby. For years Graham Jones wrote regular columns in the Times education section. He made the obscure and remote world of Further Education funny and relevant and had a loyal following of readers.

You'll love the characters; you'll love their stories; you'll love this book.

The Jordan Peele of horror fiction turns his eye to classic slasher films: Jade is one class away from graduating high-school, but that's one class she keeps failing local history. Dragged down by her past, her father and being an outsider, she's composing her epic essay series to save her high-school diploma. Jade's topic? The unifying theory of slasher films. In her rapidly gentrifying rural lake town, Jade sees the pattern in recent events that only her encyclopedic knowledge of horror cinema could have prepared her for. And with the arrival of the Final Girl, Letha Mondragon, she's convinced an irreversible sequence of events has been set into motion. As tourists start to go missing, and the tension grows between her community and the celebrity newcomers building their mansions the other side of the Indian Lake, Jade prepares for the killer to rise. She dives deep into the town's history, the tragic deaths than occurred at camp years ago, the missing tourists no one is even sure exist, and the murders starting to happen, searching for the answer. As the small and peaceful town heads towards catastrophe, it all must come to a head on 4th July, when the town all gathers on the water, where luxury yachts compete with canoes and inflatables, and the final showdown between rich and poor, past and present, townsfolk and celebrities slasher and Final Girl.

Blackfeet author Stephen Graham Jones brings readers a spine-tingling Native American horror novella. Walking through his own house at night, a fifteen-year-old thinks he sees another person stepping through a doorway. Instead of the people who could be there, his mother or his brother, the figure reminds him of his long-gone father, who died mysteriously before his family left the reservation. When he follows it he discovers his house is bigger and deeper than he knew. The house is the kind of wrong place where you can lose yourself and find things you'd rather not have. Over the course of a few nights, chasing the ghost of his father and the promise of his Native American heritage, the boy tries to map out his house in an effort that puts his little brother in the worst danger, and puts him in the position to save his family...at terrible cost.

A spellbinding and surreal coming-of-age story about a young boy living on the fringe with his family - who are secretly werewolves - and struggling to survive in a contemporary America that shuns them. He was born an outsider, like the rest of his family. Poor yet resilient, he lives in the shadows with his aunt Libby and uncle Darren, folk who stubbornly make their way in a society that does not understand or want them. They are mongrels, mixed blood, neither this nor that. The boy at the centre of Mongrels must decide if he belongs on the road with his aunt and uncle, or if he fits with the people on the other side of the tracks. For ten years, he and his family have lived a life of late-night exits and narrow escapes - always on the move across the South to stay one step ahead of the law. But the time is drawing near when Darren and Libby will finally know if their nephew is like them or not. And the close calls they've been running from for so long are catching up fast now. Everything is about to change. A compelling and fascinating journey, Mongrels alternates between past and present to create an unforgettable portrait of a boy trying to understand his family and his place in a complex and unforgiving world.

Lyotard's thoughts on the postmodern have often been misunderstood or misrepresented. Lyotard Reframed provides a clear and original introduction to Lyotard's work on the postmodern and his philosophy more generally, demonstrating its on-going relevance to creative endeavor and debates concerning the value and significance of the visual arts. It also situates Lyotard's discussion of the postmodern in the context of his other key concepts: the Figural, the Libidinal, and the Sublime. Written for students, teachers and those interested in the arts more generally, "Lyotard Reframed" employs numerous examples drawn from painting, cinema, and comic books, to illustrate the significance of these ideas and to explore their links with phenomenology, Marxism, structuralism, psychoanalysis and deconstruction. It also presents a glossary of relevant concepts and a useful guide to further reading.
