'Hugely impressive' Russel McLean ******** You don't know me . . .
but your husband does. When a mummified body is found in a quiet
town in Scotland, forensic pathologist Harriet Hitchin IDs the
woman as call girl Miriam Goldstein. Police quickly lock onto a
suspect, but Harriet thinks they are wrong - she must ignore her
gut instinct, and risk losing the trail of a killer, or ignore the
police and risk her own life. As the investigation ensues,
shockwaves from the body's discovery ripple out - former friend,
Denise, knows it's only a matter of time before her own past is
discovered. Miri's former clients are praying their involvement
with her doesn't come to light. And the killer is also in shock -
but not for the reasons you'd imagine . . . With taut pace and a
twisted sense of humour, You Don't Know Me is a sexy thriller from
someone who knows exactly what it means to live a double life -
perfect for fans of Katerina Diamond and Joy Ellis. ******** What

Erykah Macdonald has a nice life, the kind you're supposed to want.
But on her twentieth wedding anniversary, she's about to cross a
line. Several hundred miles away in the shallow waters of a
Hebridean island, a body is found and it's clear this is no
accidental death. Erykah has to make an irreversible choice - she's
used to living with secrets but there are far worse secrets about
to emerge. From a morgue in the Highlands to the powerplays in
Westminster, a net is tightening. And those that find themselves
caught will kill to get out. Erykah must decide what she's capable
of. She should be scared - but sometimes, crossing the line is the
first step to freedom...
Why everything the media tells us about sex is wrong ... Is there
any truth to the epidemic of sex addiction? Are our children really
getting sexualised younger? Are men the only ones who like porn?
Brooke Magnanti looks at all these questions and more - and proves
that perhaps we've all been taking the answers for granted. Brooke
Magnanti is no stranger to controversy. As Belle de Jour she
enthralled and outraged the nation in equal measure. Now her real
identity is out in the open, Brooke's background as a scientist and
a researcher can come to bear in her fascinating investigation into
the truth behind the headlines, scandals and moral outrage that
fill the media (and our minds) when it comes to sex. Using her
entertaining and informed voice, Brooke strips away the hype and
looks at the science behind sex and the panic behind public policy.
Unlike so many media column inches, Brooke uses verifiable academic
research. This is fact not fiction; science not supposition. So sit
back, open your mind and prepare to be shocked ...
