For years, rumors of the "Marsh Girl" have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life - until the unthinkable happens. Perfect for fans of Barbara Kingsolver and Celeste Ng, Where The Crawdads Sing is at once an exquisite ode to the natural world, a heartbreaking coming-of-age story, and a surprising tale of possible murder. Owens reminds us that we are forever shaped by the children we once were, and that we are all subject to the beautiful and violent secrets that nature keeps.

Sci-fi thriller directed by Luke Scott and starring Anya Taylor-Joy in the role of Morgan, a synthetic being with superhuman strength and intelligence. Genetically engineered as an experiment in the next step in evolution, Morgan is kept in a secure facility with very little human contact except for the scientists who made her.

The cast also includes Paul Giamatti, Jennifer Jason Leigh and Toby Jones.
Previously titled Lawful Living, this second edition is revised, expanded, updated and now fully indexed. It presents a compilation of the provisions tucked away in nearly 300 South African statutes, which lay down the law for compliance – whether in business, at home, or by Government. The provisions have been rewritten in plain language by a senior advocate with 35 years' legal experience. They are neatly arranged into areas of commerce, industry and everyday life and can be found quickly - and understood. The book does not deal with compliance frameworks internal and specific to corporations, and professional or industry associations and bodies. However, it is an invaluable resource for professionals, businesses, law-enforcement agencies, and all citizens: in other words, those who want to stay compliant - or hold accountable the government, their municipality, their neighbour or their competitor.

The situation only gets more out of hand when Isabella becomes involved with her therapist Jane Claremont (Aniston)'s boyfriend, playwright Joshua Fleet (Will Forte). The cast also includes Rhys Ifans, Cybill Shepherd, Illeana Douglas and Joanna Lumley. Wes Anderson and Noah Baumbach are among the film's executive producers.

Inhabiting many of those areas is Dwight (Clive Owen), a photographer in league with the sordid ladies of Sin City, headed by Gail (Rosario Dawson), who opens up a mess of trouble after tangling with a corrupt cop by the name of Jackie Boy (Benicio Del Toro). Finally, there's Hartigan (Bruce Willis), an ex-cop with a heart problem who's hell-bent on protecting a stripper named Nancy (Jessica Alba).
Double bill of children's features. 'Marmaduke' (2010) is a part live action, part CGI-animated family comedy based on the long-running comic strip.

His perks package, rivalling that of any A-list celebrity, includes Kobe beef, a poodle harem and a diamond collar. Unfortunately an accident that occurs while Rex is shooting a commercial leads his handlers to presume he's dead. But Rex is merely lost. Alone, filthy and unrecognisable in an unfamiliar city, how will Rex deal with a scenario much more common to dogs than his previous pampered existence?
