As evidenced by the incredible success of Helen MacDonald's H is for Hawk, and the legions of fans of Pale Male, the incredible red-tailed hawk of 5th avenue, we are full of rapture for raptors. James Macdonald Lockhart, is among the many who have sought out these incredible birds, and in this lyrical work of natural history he seeks out 15 different raptors, in 15 different landscapes across England: a journey in search of raptors, a journey through the birds and into their worlds. Raptors are by nature scarce and extremely elusive. Of Pandionidae (osprey), Accipitridae (broad-winged harrier, eagle, buzzard, red kite) and Falconidae (peregrine, sparrowhawk etc.) only widespread buzzards, kestrels and kites are easily seen. Lockhart follows loosely the trail of 19th-century Scottish naturalist and artist William MacGillivray (1796-1852), As Philip Hoare wrote of it, James MacDonald Lockhart puts the rapture back in the raptor. This is in-the-moment writing, raw in beak and claw. With its gorgeously felt sense of life and place, Raptor rips at its words, turning them into exquisite portraits of the utter wild, shaping soaring, obsessive beauty out of the British landscape and its imperial birds"

On a sunny late September morning in Richmond, British Columbia... …twelve-year-old Angie Wallis is eager to go to school. She and her friends are planning a sleepover campout on the weekend and there are plans to be made. Her world changes in an instant when she is nearly knocked off her feet—the “big one” has hit the coast. The devastation to their home and neighbourhood from the violent shaking is only the beginning. A seafaring family, she and her parents, grandmother, brothers, and faithful dogs escape the ensuing tsunami in their boat launch as much of their community sinks beneath the sea. They make their way across the Strait of Georgia with determination and resourcefulness and manage to find their beloved Sea Lure, a 51-foot motor yacht moored in Nanaimo. There they gather their bearings and deal with an eerie aftermath that includes marauding thieves and pirates, heroic island farmers, and massive tent cities of displaced earthquake victims. This disaster tale is told with skillful restraint rather than sensationalist drama. Angie is an entirely credible narrator whose experience draws us in and holds our interest throughout. Author Darlene Weir’s depictions of the coastal British Columbia backdrop along with her astute understanding of human nature create a strong underpinning for this action-packed adventure.

'A beautiful, brilliantly written book on grief, self-discovery and swimming' EMMA GANNON 'Immersive and compelling' CATHY RENTZENBRINK *SHORTLISTED FOR THE NERO BOOK AWARDS 2023* In a bid to fill the empty space left by her brother's death, Freya sets out with her friend Miri to swim every tidal pool in Britain in a year. The adventure takes them from a pool hidden in the cliffs of Polperro to the quarry lagoon of Abereiddi, via the Trinkie in northernmost Scotland where locals meet each year to give the pool wall a fresh lick of paint. The further Freya travels, the closer she finds herself to memories of her brother. With every swim, the challenge becomes more than just a way to explore the country's furthest reaches, but a journey of self-discovery. The Tidal Year is a story about the healing power of wild swimming and the space it creates for reflection, rewilding and hope. An exploration of grief in the modern age, it's also a tale of female rage, sisterhood and falling in love after loss. ------- 'Some of the best writing on wild swimming that I have encountered' MARIANNE LEVY 'I found myself blinking back tears' HARPER'S BAZAAR 'A poignant, funny tribute to the complex, tidal nature of grief' JADE ANGELES FITTON 'Funny and moving, brimming with bracingly refreshing uncertainty' POLLY ATKIN

From the author of Monsters Born and Made comes an action-packed South Asian inspired fantasy that will have your heart racing at every turn. Seventeen-year-old Krescent Dune is buried under the weight of her dead parents' debt and the ruinous legacy they left behind. The only way she can earn enough money to escape her unforgiving island is by battling monstrous creatures in an underground fighting pit. After a fight goes terribly wrong, she's banned from the pits. Now hopeless, she is offered a deal: in exchange for the erasure of her debts, she must join and protect a hunting party for a rescue mission deep within the mining caves beneath the island. Krescent is determined to keep her head down and fulfill her role as the dutiful bodyguard, even though she is trapped underground with her childhood enemy and a company of people who would gladly kill her if they knew who her parents were. As they come across creatures she believed only existed in legends, it becomes clear they are in far more danger than she could have imagined. But someone doesn't want her to make it out alive. And she'll have to figure out who before she's left alone...in the dark.

Perfect for fans of The Hunger Games and These Violent Delights, this South Asian-inspired fantasy is a gripping debut about the power of the elite, the price of glory, and one girl's chance to change it all. Sixteen-year-old Koral and her older brother Emrik risk their lives each day to capture the monstrous maristags that live in the black seas around their island. They have to, or else their family will starve. In an oceanic world swarming with vicious beasts, the Landers—the ruling elite, have indentured Koral's family to provide the maristags for the Glory Race, a deadly chariot tournament reserved for the upper class. The winning contender receives gold and glory. The others—if they're lucky—survive. When the last maristag of the year escapes and Koral has no new maristag to sell, her family's financial situation takes a turn for the worse and they can't afford medicine for her chronically ill little sister. Koral's only choice is to do what no one in the world has ever dared: cheat her way into the Glory Race. But every step of the way is unpredictable as Koral races against competitors—including her ex-boyfriend—who have trained for this their whole lives and who have no intention of letting a low-caste girl steal their glory. As a rebellion rises and rogues attack Koral to try and force her to drop out, she must choose—her life or her sister's—before the whole island burns.

In a world of priceless art, opulent yachts, and oceanic galas, Amanda Edge is more than just an art dealer—she’s an art detective. When a Gustav Klimt masterpiece vanishes, she embarks on a perilous quest that plunges her into Miami's elite art scene and beyond. In her hunt to recover the stolen painting, she joins forces with Daniel, the director overseeing a futuristic underwater habitat, as well as Gabrielle, renowned for her innovative yacht designs. Amanda's expertise leads the investigation through the art underworld and its uncharted waters of forgeries and priceless art thefts. Daniel and Gabrielle are haunted by a series of unsettling deaths they suspect are far from accidental. Their specialized maritime knowledge and skills become invaluable as the trio delves deeper into a whirlpool of mystery and danger. The trio’s paths become entangled with a secretive individual—known publicly as a philanthropist focused on ocean preservation—but covertly, he may be the mastermind of an illicit art syndicate. As they wade closer to their respective clues, they must navigate a complex tempest of intrigue, deception, and murder. If they fail, unsolved killings will remain a dark secret, and a tidal wave of theft and fraud risks engulfing the art world. Just when they think they're on the cusp of exposing the criminal mastermind and solving their interlocking mysteries, their investigation leads them into the foreboding waters of the Bermuda Triangle. In this treacherous zone, the boundary between the natural and supernatural dissolves, revealing an unfathomable energy that threatens anyone who encroaches upon its waters, rendering all human intentions, noble or nefarious, inconsequential in the face of the abyss.
