ladybird finds herself being pushed around by everyone she
encounters and has nowhere to go! Will she find a place to lay her
eggs? In A Perfect Spot, young readers will follow our brave

of amazing creepy crawlies who live there. Two spreads at the end
of the book provide information on all the creatures encountered in

'THE FRENCH SUSPENSE KING' New York Times 'It's no wonder that
Musso is one of France's most loved, bestselling authors' Harlan
Coben In 1999, after publishing three cult novels, celebrated
author Nathan Fawles announces the end of his writing career and
withdraws to Beaumont, a wild and beautiful island off the
Mediterranean coast. Autumn 2018. As Fawles' novels continue to
captivate readers, Mathilde Monney, a young Swiss journalist,
arrives on the island, determined to unlock the writer's secrets
and secure his first interview in twenty years. That same day, a
woman's body is discovered on the beach and the island is cordoned
off by the authorities. And so, begins a dangerous face off between
Mathilde and Nathan, in which the line between truth and fiction
becomes increasingly blurred... Praise for Guillaume Musso and The
Reunion 'Extraordinary' Sunday Times 'Breathtakingly good. Do not
miss it' Daily Mail 'One of the great thriller writers of our age'
Daily Express 'Stylish and streamlined, nostalgic... More please'
The Times 'Hugely enjoyable and beautifully staged, with an
audacious authorial coup at the death that is simply breathtaking'
Irish Times 'The French call it a coup de foudre: a strike of
lightning. That's how The Reunion zapped me, electrified me. For
almost a decade, Guillaume Musso has reigned supreme as France's
most popular author, and with this he's instantly poised to join
the ranks of Stieg Larsson and Jo Nesbo' A.J. Finn, author of The
Woman in the Window

What happened to Betty is every woman's dream. Isn't it? There are
those who never grow old because they are taken too soon. There are
those who grow old without worries, enjoying everything life has to
offer. There are those who desperately try to slow down the ticking
clock. And then there's Betty. Betty, who mysteriously stops
growing old on her thirtieth birthday - the same age as her mother
when she died. The years leave no trace on Betty's face, but as
everyone around her is transformed by the relentless march of time,
her once golden life begins to come apart. Because an ageless face
is a face without history, without passions, without memories. A
blank canvas others will slowly, inexorably forget...
