Paparazzo HENRIETTA FOX can’t keep out of trouble. The flame-haired camera girl in biker’s leathers, with an Irish temper, pictures The Madonna, star of the Hollywood blockbuster VIRGIN MARY, making love on the back seat of a stretch limo. The movie is hot property and Henri wants to auction her scandalous picture around the globe.

The trail will lead them from Madrid to the notorious Boyaca Emerald Valley in Colombia. The movie star, with a yen for cocaine and public sexual exhibitionism, has another life. She is one of three dangerous daughters of a ruthless emerald mine owner who takes what he want with a gun. He pays the left-wing guerrilla FARC for protection. But the U.S. President has sent an American black operations team to kill him. On this deadly assignment Henrietta and Cass will have to survive them both.

Temple to the Sun and Moon or simply a place of pagan worship, one after another authors have pondered the true purpose of the unique megalithic structure that is Stonehenge. Now this refreshing analysis of the evidence uncovers the shocking truth behind the world's oldest surviving man-made structure. "The fact that Stonehenge may have been deliberately flooded (for cosmological reasons) from time to time is a serious proposal and I would recommend Talboys’ The Stonehenge Observatory to anyone interested in understanding the many different functions that can be ascribed to this monument’s purpose. Moreover, Talboys’ style of writing is not heavy, and he reminds us all not to accept all those other “expert” opinions about Stonehenge at face value. I would recommend this book to those readers seeking a wider appreciation of the potential functions behind Stonehenge’s complex architectural design". John Hill, School of Archaeology, Classics and Egyptology, University of Liverpool

Carl has always carried a vague torch for his old friend Joss, one that has burned brighter as the rest of his life continues to disappoint him. The night before he skips the country to find himself a future he decides to live out his fantasy, giving not one fleeting half-thought to the consequences. Being with Joss is everything he imagined. So much so that he can't forget her, despite his now being on the other side of the world and having - somehow - ended up with a new girlfriend. Joss can't forget that night for a very different reason. One that becomes clear a few months later when she wees on a plastic stick and is confronted with two blue lines. Homeless, loveless, planless, she tries to face reality but, on reflection, decides against it - after all, it's not like she's actually going to have the baby. Probably. Set in the north of England and the south of the world, this is a funny coming-of-age story for fans of Katie Fforde and Jill Mansell.

In 1975, when in his mid-twenties, Brendan Gisby - spurred on by a press report on "The warming of relations between the Republic of China and the USSR" - put his imaginative prowess of words to work, together with the courage of his convictions, and the then full-blooded youth (in his own words "I was further Right than Attila the Hun") began to write his own version of what might happen should these two Communist giants combine and collude to dominate the world. The result, some 30 years later due to the intervention of life and his career, is "The Olive Branch". Set a few years into the future, this gripping and scintillating yarn has all the necessary ingredients and more for a first-class read. Combining the horrors of war with the scenic beauty of surrounding countryside, and the essential underlying blossoming of first love, this book provokes a host of emotions within the reader - not least of which is the humbling realisation of how lucky we are to have our freedom.

Set on a rocky islet in the shadow of the Forth Railway Bridge, this superbly written tale centres on the creatures who inhabit it - a huge colony of rats who have made their home beneath the crumbling ruins of the monastery. ‘Home’ is hardly the word for the native black creatures, however, who live under the cruel dictatorship of the larger brown rats who took over the colony when they first arrived in their masses from a passing foreign ship. Of the original black rats, Twisted Foot is a rodent on a mission, and one cannot help but feel compassion for our protagonist as he carries us along with him through his trials and tribulations, until finally deciding to take matters into his own hands and make a bid for freedom. This is a delightful and cleverly constructed story. With his excellent powers of description, Brendan Gisby has produced an enthralling and utterly fascinating book - and one which is an absolute must for anyone who has ever read and enjoyed 'Watership Down'.
