Rose slipped getting off a London bus, it could happen to anyone her age, nothing to make a fuss about. But being in hospital with time on her hands is bringing unwelcome memories - her family's disastrous emigration to Australia in the 1950s, their struggles to survive, her husband Len's affair, and the misery of their daughter Mattie - none of it the life of bliss she described in her letters home. But now Rose is back in England and Mattie is flying in for the first time. Which of Rose's carefully guarded secrets will Mattie reveal? And what will she tell them about the most important one of all - about Rose's son that she hasn't seen or heard of for fifteen years? And is Mattie hiding a secret of her own?

When Jana first arrived in Australia, she was pregnant with Kellie and Billy was two years old. Jana hopes to put the horrors of her past behind her and start a new life, but is bitterly disappointed. Years later, Jana unwisely brings unsavory boyfriends into their home and Kellie is raped. Kellie ends up killing the man. At twenty-eight, Kellie becomes a rich widow. However, she cannot forget her suspicions surrounding Billy's tragic death at seventeen. She moves to Sydney where she writes popular novels using the nom de plume B.M. Rising, for “Bad Moon Rising,” Billy's favorite song. Nothing alleviates the pain over losing her brother or can lessen the hatred of her rapist. She is also troubled by the secrets Jana keeps about Russia. poses the questions: Is murder ever justified, and are killers born or created?

It's an intriguing novel, very cleverly written.” – Robert Bailey, former editor with the Commonwealth Government “Brilliant work.

How did social, cultural and political events in Britain during the 2000s shape contemporary British fiction? The means of publishing, buying and reading fiction changed dramatically between 2000 and 2010. This volume explores how the socio-political and economic turns of the decade, bookended by the beginning of a millennium and an economic crisis, transformed the act of writing and reading. Through consideration of, among other things, the treatment of neuroscience, violence, the historical and youth subcultures in recent fiction, the essays in this collection explore the complex and still powerful relation between the novel and the world in which it is written, published and read. This major literary assessment of the fiction of the 2000s covers the work of newer voices such as Monica Ali, Mark Haddon, Tom McCarthy, David Peace and Zadie Smith as well as those more established, such as Salman Rushdie, Hilary Mantel and Ian McEwan making it an essential contribution to reading, defining and understanding the decade.

Earth's recent reprieve from full-scale disaster is about to end sooner than expected. The second book in the Sentinels of Tzurac trilogy,Zarkwin's Revenge begins five years after the conclusion of Terra Major Under Threat. When Jackson and Khaneera, both serving life sentences for their crimes against the Federation, escape prison, their unfinished mission snaps back into place, reigniting the rebel forces—and their own feelings for each other. Having failed their operation once, they don't intend to taste defeat again. And Khaneera knows exactly how to ensure they get to celebrate the spoils this time. With the rediscovered Xytrinium infusion formula in hand, they can infuse their mercenaries with the same enhanced powers as the Sentinels. Now on equal footing and with secret attacks up their sleeves, the rebel forces are confident they can eradicate the Sentinels, destroy the Federation, and retrieve the wealth of Xytrinium reserves from Earth. But what if one rebel starts to grow a conscience? Will a little advanced warning be enough to help Earth and the Federation thwart the rebels once again—or is it their turn to feel the sting of defeat?

How did social, cultural and political events in Britain during the 1990s shape contemporary British Fiction? From the fall of the Berlin Wall to the turn of the millennium, the 1990s witnessed a realignment of global politics. Against the changing international scene, this volume uses events abroad and in Britain to examine and explain the changes taking place in British fiction, including: the celebration of national identities, fuelled by the move toward political devolution in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales; the literary optimism in urban ethnic fictions written by a new generation of authors, born and raised in Britain; the popularity of neo-Victorian fiction. Critical surveys are balanced by in-depth readings of work by the authors who defined the decade, including A.S. Byatt, Hanif Kureishi, Will Self, Caryl Phillips and Irvine Welsh: an approach that illustrates exactly how their key themes and concerns fit within the social and political circumstances of the decade.

The shocking story of a WWII shootout between black and white GIs in a quiet Cornish town that put the British-US “special relationship” on trial. On September 26, 1943, racial tensions between American soldiers stationed in Cornwall erupted in gunfire. Labelled a ‘wild west’ mutiny by the tabloids, it became front page news in Great Britain and the USA. For Americans, it bolstered a fast-accelerating civil rights movement, while in the UK, it exposed unsettling truths about Anglo-American relations. With new archival research, journalist Kate Werran pieces together the shocking drama that authorities tried to hush up. Her narrative examines everything from the controversy of American segregation on British soil to the shocking event itself and the resulting court martial. Extracted from wartime cabinet documents, secret government surveys, opinion polls, diaries, letters and newspapers as well as testimony from those who remember it, this story offers a rare window into a little-known dark side of the ‘American Invasion.’
