A true, historical love story from the bestselling author of the Falco novels. ‘He has no money, no reputation and no famous ancestors.’ The love story of the Emperor Vespasian, who brought peace to Rome after years of strife, and his mistress, the freed slave woman Caenis, this book recreates Ancient Rome’s most turbulent period – the reigns of Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius and Nero and Vespasian’s rise to power. As their forbidden romance blossoms, Caenis is embroiled in political intrigue, while Vespasian embarks on a glorious career. Years pass, then Vespasian risks all in the climactic struggle for power – bringing hope for Rome, but a threat to the relationship that has endured for so long.

A remote, crumbling house; four sisters; and the secrets that imprison them... 'Before Gillian Flynn, there was Lesley Glaister' Harper's Bazaar 'Frightening yet eerily beautiful ... Lesley Glaister is adept, original and mature' Hilary Mantel In a remote, crumbling house in the Fens live four sisters - Agatha, Milly, and Ellen and Esther - identical twins so closely linked as to be almost one person. They have lived there all their lives, trapped still by the fear of their dead father, who governs his daughters' lives from beyond the grave. And then there is George, another inhabitant, imprisoned in the cellar. Little by little, macabre events come to light: events that transform an idyllic country childhood into a world of eccentric isolation.

Official, original James Bond from a writer described by Len Deighton as a 'master storyteller'. 'People notice things and word around Whitehall is that Commander Bond is living a shade dangerously - gambling, the new Bentley, er ... ladies, money changing hands ...' Following scandal and his shock resignation from Britain's Secret Intelligence Service James Bond becomes a gun for hire; able, and willing, to sell his lethal skills to the highest bidder. And SPECTRE, it seems, are eager to have the disgraced British super spy on their payroll. But before he can be fully embraced by his new employer - and deadliest enemy - 007 must first prove his loyalty. And in doing so he must threaten with nuclear annihilation everything he has fought his whole life to defend. Until honour is fully restored... Gardner's stunning reinvention of Bond secured critical acclaim and blockbusting sales around the world. Role of Honour, the fourth book in the series, kept 007 at No.1.

A young woman defies convention in a small Pakistani village, with devastating results for her and her family. A stunning, immense beautiful novel about courage, family and the meaning of love, when everything seems lost... 'A compelling and compassionate story' Anna Mazzola, author of The Story Keeper 'A shocking portrait of lives lived under the shadow of threat and prejudice. A brave book' Vaseem Khan, author of the Inspector Chopra series 'A bold, gifted storyteller, dealing with a gritty, thorny issue of female honour. Compulsive reading' Qaisra Shahraz MBE, author of The Holy Woman 'Beautifully written and immersive, No Honour starts with a powerful opening that propels you into the shocking themes. A must-read' Sarah Pearse, author of The Sanatorium _______________ In sixteen-year-old Abida's small Pakistani village, there are age-old rules to live by, and her family's honour to protect. And, yet, her spirit is defiant and she yearns to make a home with the man she loves. When the unthinkable happens, Abida faces the same fate as other young girls who have chosen unacceptable alliances – certain, public death. Fired by a fierce determination to resist everything she knows to be wrong about the society into which she was born, and aided by her devoted father, Jamil, who puts his own life on the line to help her, she escapes to Lahore and then disappears. Jamil goes to Lahore in search of Abida – a city where the prejudices that dominate their village take on a new and horrifying form – and father and daughter are caught in a world from which they may never escape. Moving from the depths of rural Pakistan, riddled with poverty and religious fervour, to the dangerous streets of over-populated Lahore, No Honour is a story of family, of the indomitable spirit of love in its many forms ... a story of courage and resilience, when all seems lost, and the inextinguishable fire that lights one young woman's battle for change. _______________ 'So powerful' Heat magazine 'Addictive, brave and powerful' Louise Fein 'Deeply emotional' Eastern Eye 'A stunningly written, immensely important book' A. A. Chaudhuri 'Perfectly paced story structure and eloquent dialogue ... shocking, deeply moving and hugely important' Carol Lovekin 'A truly heart-wrenching tale of the human spirit's quest for love, freedom and survival' Tim Glister 'It will shake you, anger and sadden you, but also restore hope in the power of love to triumph over evil, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles' Tony Frobisher, Daily Times 'Soul deep, mind-blowing and heart-wrenching ... you are left reeling' Faiqa Mansab 'Khan is a masterful storyteller' Aliya Ali-Afzal 'Khan writes about the dance between fathers and daughters, men and women, authority and no authority, and No Honour is a page-turner' Soniah Kamal 'Tense and gripping' Polly Crosby 'Beautifully rendered, moving and insightful' Neema Shah 'Spectacular... a joy from start to finish' Charlie Carroll 'This book is devastating, vitally important and beautifully written. Astonishing' Rob Parker 'Insightful and sympathetic to the unique experiences of women, whilst evoking the atmosphere of Lahore ... hard to put down' Alex Morrall 'A gripping, horrifying, compulsive read' Jennie Godfrey 'Compelling main characters make it memorable and the heavy subject matter in handled the way it should have been – with empathy' Mashable
