She'll help anyone in need. But did she just save a killer? There is a chilling phenomenon in Japan known as Johatsu, where people voluntarily disappear from their lives. It's said that 100,000 people per year are Johatsu, and an entire industry has sprung up to support those who choose to. Life is hard. For some people, it's just too much. That's what I thought when I brought the concept to England. People will disappear anyway. What if I could help them? So I pack their belongings discreetly, create new identities, forge documents, give directions to the cities and towns where the 'night-mover' can live anonymously. It's just a business. I never saw it as a shameful act. I've helped people flee from abusive relationships, from work pressure, from debt, from unfulfilled lives—people in need. I consider what I do to be honourable. Until now, that is. Because I've just learned that I'm not exempt from responsibility. That I am capable of doing a terrible thing. That it's not just a business. I helped somebody flee from a crime. From the police. I evaded a murderer. And if I don't find him, I can't live with what he might do next. Ideal for readers who: Love a high-concept thriller where the action is driven by compelling characters. Crave a suspenseful read with twists they won’t see coming. Are intrigued by a moral dilemma where compassion may have protected a killer. Prefer pacey crime fiction with a chillingly plausible premise.

Few Irish track athletes are as universally loved as Ciara Mageean, who has remained endearingly down-to-earth, candid and optimistic despite the dramatic twists and turns of her world-class career. In 2024 she finally won a European title, crossing the line to secure that gold medal in a moment of pure euphoria. Two months later, at the peak of her power, an excruciating injury derailed her once again, forcing an eleventh-hour withdrawal from the Paris Olympics. In the City of Love she went, overnight, from competitor to heartbroken tourist. Nothing, she thought, will ever be as bad as this … and then she got the worst news of her life. My Greatest Race is a sports memoir like no other, a devastating contrast between the elite athlete road that so few get to travel and the all-too-familiar cancer journey that so many do. Ideal for readers who: Look to sports memoirs for identity, resilience and purpose beyond medals. Follow triumphs, injuries and emotional honesty through an elite racing life. See Olympic heartbreak as part of the story, not its whole definition. Value athletes as whole people, not just performances on the track.

In 2019, teenager Zac Brettler mysteriously fell to his death from a luxury apartment balcony into the Thames. As his grieving parents began to investigate his final days, they were shocked to learn that he’d been leading a double life, in which he was posing as the son of a wealthy Russian oligarch. This unsolved case is at the heart of London Falling – at once a family tragedy, a psychological portrait of a young fabulist, and an indictment of the greed for extreme wealth that has transformed one of the world’s great cities: London. Hiding in the shadows of its great architecture and imperial history are the malignant, mercenary forces that have come to influence us all – whether we realise it or not. In his inimitably gripping and forensic style, Baillie Gifford winner and New Yorker staff writer Patrick Radden Keefe explores what brought Zac Brettler (the grandson of famous rabbi Hugo Gryn) to the balcony that night – and how he became involved with some of London’s most notorious gangsters. Following Zac’s parents on a dark journey of investigation, London Falling unearths the unsettling truths they discovered – both about the sinister underworld on their doorstep, and about their son’s secret world. Ideal for readers who: Read true stories where family tragedy opens into a larger investigation. Are interested in hidden wealth, reinvention and London’s darker networks.

Sworn to protect a scenic island meant to be far from the evils of the mainland, Detective Sergeant Stilwell can feel danger closing in. Detective Sergeant Stilwell knows that his posting on Catalina Island is no paradise, but to most residents, it seems blissfully separated-by twenty-two miles of ocean-from the troubles of Los Angeles County. But now a threat is coming to his safe haven. Acting on a tip from a confidential informant, Stilwell and his deputies watch a plane land in the middle of the night at the Airport in the Sky, a remote airstrip in the mountains. A duffel bag of drugs is dropped and the deputies move in, but things quickly go sideways. While Stilwell chases the fleeing pickup man into the mountainside brush, shots are fired on the runway and the plane flies off. An internal inquiry follows, putting Stilwell on the bench until he is cleared of responsibility for the disastrous operation. But he is determined to find out who brought deadly violence to his island, and begins his own secret investigation into the drug deal gone wrong. While under orders to remain in the sheriff's substation, he finds in the lost and found a valuable backpack that was never claimed. He traces it to a woman who disappeared while hiking on the island four years ago. But then why was the pack only turned in two months back? Now thoroughly intrigued, he follows the mystery all the way to the LAPD's Open-Unsolved Unit and Detective Renée Ballard. Stilwell and Ballard work the case from both sides of the channel, and soon realize they are on the trail of a criminal who revels in taunting the authorities. Meanwhile, frustrated at being shut out of an investigation on his own island, Stilwell risks his already shaky standing in the department to pursue a case whose reach is wider than he ever imagine. Ideal for readers who: Respond to police thrillers where paradise is only a thin cover over violence. Need Catalina Island’s isolation to tighten the drug-drop and cold-case pressure.

James Hawes’s The Shortest History of Ireland is based at every step on the latest scholarship, but it’s all brought together, for once, as a fluent story, as captivating as a novel, galloping from the Ice Age to the present, using language, graphics and images accessible to all. It will change the way people see the Irish past, flipping usual practice on its head and placing Ireland at the centre not just of Irish but British and at times even European history. Hawes concludes by arguing that if Ireland can now sidestep the last, toxic wreckage of the British Empire, its eventful past will flow into a bright future. From the bestselling author of The Shortest History of Germany and The Shortest History of England, this is popular history at its thrilling best. Ideal for readers who: Seek a fast, highly accessible journey through Irish history from the deep past right up to the modern era. Appreciate rigorous academic scholarship translated into a fluent narrative rather than a dense textbook. Want to see Ireland's historical trajectory recontextualised in relation to Britain, Europe and global empires. Value engaging popular history that combines breakneck pace, strong arguments and clear visual support.

They said they’d never let a man get in the way of their friendship... Laura and Dee haven’t spoken since the day they buried a body together. It was supposed to be the best summer of their lives. A break from university, from parents, from wasting their time on Irish boys with farmer’s tans. They’d imagined flirting with Ryan Phillippe on a New York rooftop. Instead, with summer jobs waitressing at a country club on Long Island, pickings are slim. Mikey is a bully. Marco is off limits. Jose is angry. Mr Haight is a sleaze. Josh is too keen. And Other Josh… he’s something else entirely. It’s a miracle only one of them ends up dead. Dee is pretty sure she didn’t mean to kill him. Laura, to her credit, never asked. Not until she sends an email, out of the blue, more than twenty years later. It’s finally time to mend the biggest heartbreak of that summer; Laura wants her best friend back. A hilarious and heartfelt story about friendship, young women and bad men. Sarah Breen and Emer McLysaght bring their trademark Aisling humour in this completely new direction. Noughties nostalgia and a dead body, it’s the novel you didn’t know you needed. Ideal for Readers Who… Loved the Aisling series — Our Deadly Summer is McLysaght and Breen's first novel outside the Aisling universe, and while the tone is darker and the setting is New York rather than Ballygobbard, the warmth, wit, and fierce female friendship that made Aisling a national treasure are entirely intact. Enjoy darkly comic Irish fiction with real emotional stakes — this isn't a cosy mystery. It's funny in the way that only Irish writers can be funny about serious things: sharply, affectionately, and with a body count. Feel a complicated nostalgia for the early noughties — dial-up internet, flip phones, impossibly low-cut jeans, and the particular madness of an Irish J1 summer in America. If you wore a velour tracksuit unironically, this book is for you. Love Marian Keyes, Holly Bourne, or Monica Heisey — fans of Really Good, Actually and So Happy for You will find the same blend of comedy and emotional honesty here, grounded in the specific texture of Irish women's lives.

From the bestselling author of The Bookshop Ladies , Faith Hogan, comes a wonderfully gripping and poignant story of two sisters and their family hotel on peaceful Pin Hill Island, once a thriving family business now struggling to survive. All Blythe Carney ever wanted was to become a hotelier and run her family’s business, the Hope Square Hotel. But fate, and her grandfather, intervened and it fell into her younger sister Rae’s lap, taking her dreams with it. Now Blythe owns Still Water House, the most exclusive guest house on Pin Hill Island, but she can’t help but feel she’s still not living the life she was meant to. Rae Johnson had no interest in taking over the hotel, her dreams lay elsewhere, but when she ended up with the family business her sister had set her heart on, her sense of duty to continue their family legacy with her husband was too strong to ignore. Now, fifteen years later, newly widowed Rae is struggling to keep the hotel afloat and she knows that selling it could be the final straw in her already fragile relationship with her sister. What do you do when your sister lives the life that you’d set your heart on? And when the perfect storm is brewing, surely, it’s time to put aside the jealousy and disappointment that can tear a family apart, and fight for the future you have always dreamed of?

'A radiant debut' EMILY HENRY THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! Six summers to fall in love. One moment to fall apart. A weekend to get it right. They say you can never go home again, and for Persephone Fraser that has felt too true for the last decade, ever since she made the biggest mistake of her life. Instead of glittering summers on the lakeshore of her childhood, she spends them in a stylish apartment in the city, going out with friends, and keeping everyone a safe distance from her heart. Until the day she gets a call that sends her racing back to Barry's Bay and into the orbit of Sam Florek - the man she never thought she'd have to live without. For six summers, through hazy afternoons on the water and warm summer nights working in his family restaurant and curling up together with books, Percy and Sam had been inseparable. And slowly that friendship turned into something breathtakingly more, before it fell spectacularly apart. When Percy returns to the lake, their connection is as undeniable as it had always been. Percy must confront the decisions she's made and the years she's spent punishing herself for them, in order to determine, once and for all, whether their love might be bigger than the biggest mistakes of their past. Told over the course of six years and one weekend, Every Summer After is a big, sweeping nostalgic story of love and the people and choices that mark us forever. 'The magic and romance of summer is palpable' Popsugar 'Your next must-read beach-read' Ashley Audrain 'A sweet story about second chances, and how the future we imagine for ourselves is never quite what it turns out to be' Jodi Picoult 'Perfect for those who covet steamy summer dock days and second-chance love stories.

From the author of A Ghost in the Throat , an unforgettable book - both history and ghost story - that will leave you gasping by its final page. In the city of Cork, a derelict Victorian mental hospital is being converted into modern apartments. One passerby has always flinched as she passes the place. Had her birth occurred in another decade, she too might have lived within those walls. Now, she notices a sign: FOR SALE. It is the first of many signs. Following them, she finds herself drawn into an irresistible river of forgotten voices, those of the women who knew this place best: insistent, vivid and true. They murmur from archives and old records; they whisper from stairwells and walls. Among them – and in one figure in particular -- she may find meaning, solace, rage; her own salvation, perhaps, or her own vanishing? A work of sublime intensity and tenderness, Said the Dead breaks the boundaries between worlds -- past and present, imagined and real -- to make something lasting and new: an experience full of danger, full of love and full of truth. Praise for Said the Dead : There’s magic in this one - a hauntingly beautiful and vivid and necessary book. Kevin Barry                         A haunting, visionary act of witness; this book will be read for decades to come. Anne Enright Said the Dead is one of those rare books where a reader encounters the writer and her characters at a dazzling and bewitching height, at a place where essence meets essence. A piercingly beautiful book that is wounding sometimes and consoling at others, the work, in the end, is life confirming: encompassed in the volume is the unparalleled expansiveness and depth of human minds and hearts. Yiyun Li Doireann ní Ghríofa goes to a place where the veil thins and the worlds meet, and crosses over, and returns, again and again, with living stories of the dead. You can feel the bravery of these acts of psychic trespass, and their sincerity makes for a mysterious and beautiful and thoroughly absorbing book, which continues to reverberate long after you finish it. Lucy Caldwell Doireann Ní Ghríofa is one of the finest writers of non-fiction I know. Said the Dead is an entrancing book -- lyrical and propulsive, it sounds out the echoes of history and finds voices and images that are moving and indelible. Reading this book is like being put under a spell Seán Hewitt Ideal for Readers Who… Loved A Ghost in the Throat — Said the Dead is Doireann Ní Ghríofa's return to the form-dissolving, time-traversing prose that made her debut unlike anything published before it. The same extraordinary attention is here, turned now towards Cork's Victorian asylum and the women the walls remember. Are drawn to Irish women's history that refuses to stay buried — this is a book about the women who were locked away, misdiagnosed, and forgotten. It recovers their voices from archives and casebooks and gives them back to us, vivid and insistent, across more than a century of silence. Want a ghost story that is also something else entirely — Said the Dead is haunted without being horror, historical without being academic, and personal without being memoir. If you find genre labels insufficient, this book was written for you. Read and loved Maggie O'Farrell, Carmen Maria Machado, or Hilary Mantel — readers who respond to prose that holds historical research and personal obsession in the same sentence, and who want their fiction to feel like an act of recovery, will find exactly that here. Have a connection to Cork — or to any place whose walls remember more than people say — the derelict Victorian asylum at the heart of this book is a real place, and Ní Ghríofa writes about it as someone who has walked past it and felt what many people feel: that certain buildings hold their histories differently, and that some of those histories are not finished yet. Believe that reading is its own form of haunting — the narrator of Said the Dead is a reader, pursuing forgotten women through archives and old records. As she reads their lives, we read hers. The experience of reading this book becomes part of its subject matter — which is either the most disorienting thing you can do to a reader, or the most generous.

Genocide: Sponsoring the Destruction of Palestine is Fintan Drury's follow-up to Catastrophe: Nakba II, extending his forensic chronicle of the genocide in Gaza into its third year. Opening on 13 October 2025 - when Donald Trump addressed the Knesset and held a Peace Summit in Egypt - the book dissects a spectacle that excluded the oppressed while rewarding the oppressor. Drury uses this moment to show how Western governments, led by the US, deepened their political, military, and moral support for genocide. Drawing on meticulous research, he examines how bombardment, starvation, imprisonment, and territorial expansion formed a deliberate strategy, and argues that Western arms, funding, and diplomacy knowingly enabled it. Drury also explores the Trump-Netanyahu alliance, showing how political and commercial interests sidelined alternative peace efforts. The book highlights how Israel's focus on Iran is used to deflect attention from continued expansion in Gaza and the West Bank, and critiques a 'peace' framework built around Israeli priorities. Urgent and provocative, Genocide contends that without sustained Western backing, the crisis could neither have begun nor persisted - and insists that accountability is overdue. Ideal for readers who: Look for urgent, uncompromising political non-fiction regarding Gaza and Western power. Engage with forensic, meticulously researched arguments about complicity, violence and accountability. Closely follow geopolitical developments in Palestine, foreign policy and international responsibility. Value vital, challenging books that confront global power structures without softening their case.

Few expected Donald Trump to return to the White House stronger than before. The indictments, convictions, assassination attempts, and four years of political exile made him not weaker but more powerful, more vengeful, and more willing to gamble than any President that came before him. Regime Change is the definitive account of the first year of Donald Trump’s second presidency, based on hundreds of interviews and unprecedented reporting from deep within the administration’s most closely guarded rooms. Journalists Jonathan Swan and Maggie Haberman investigate the decisions that have defined Trump’s second term, which has been liberated from every constraint that defined his first. The generals who once told him ‘no’ are gone, and the lawyers who remain have learned to pick their battles. Haberman and Swan take you behind the scenes of a presidency that has launched a new war in the Middle East, sealed the border, deployed National Guard troops into American cities, transformed the Justice Department into an instrument of retribution against the President’s enemies, and turned the office itself into a brazen vehicle for profit. They reveal a President operating almost entirely on instinct and a White House operating at the edge of political power. Regime Change shows how Trump has wielded that power, who has tried to stop him, and why nearly all of them have failed. A landmark work of real-time political history, this is the story of a President who has fundamentally altered how the world understands American power. Ideal for readers who… want current affairs on Donald Trump’s second presidency and the expansion of executive power. follow Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan’s reporting on White House politics and US elections. read political books about institutions, resistance, accountability and the limits of presidential power. are interested in real-time American political history shaped by interviews and inside reporting. want a hardback politics title for readers following the Trump administration closely.

The definitive biography of Rory McIlroy, the most important, popular and confounding player of the post-Tiger era, Rory McIlroy contains multitudes. He can overwhelm a golf course with his transcendent talent and then, at the next tournament, look utterly lost. McIlroy is golf's most eloquent ambassador and a trash-talking troll, sometimes in the same press conference. The child of a working-class family from a small town in a war-torn homeland now commutes to work in his own private jet and counts billionaires as confidants. A dozen years ago, McIlroy asked Alan Shipnuck a question about the player he had modeled himself after, Tiger Woods: 'What's he really like?' As McIlroy enters the last act of his highly eventful career, this book is a chance to redirect that old question and try to understand a man of deep complexity and contradictions. McIlroy's victory at the 2025 Masters packed such an emotional punch because he is golf's most vulnerable superstar. Across two decades as a pro he has been the anti-Tiger, letting fans into his heart and into his world. When McIlroy collapsed onto the final green at Augusta National, having at last completed the career Grand Slam, golf fans cried along with him because so many saw themselves in his struggles. But there is much that the public does not know about McIlroy. With reporting chops honed across thirty years on the golf beat, Shipnuck traces McIlroy's evolution from a young phenom in Northern Ireland to a game-changing force on and off the golf course. Shipnuck has shadowed McIlroy throughout his career, and he brings to life all the heartbreaks and triumphs with thrilling immediacy and unparalleled access. Tabloid romance, bitter business disputes, divisive politicking - it is all part of this portrait of a man in full. Shipnuck has long been known as the most fearless writer on the golf beat, and he goes deep into McIlroy's personal history at a time when the spotlight on Rory has never been brighter. Ideal for readers who: Follow elite sports biographies that look beyond trophies into the realities of pressure, form and character.

The stunning new novel from the Booker Prize-winning, Sunday Times-bestselling author of Shuggie Bain and Young Mungo. Out of money and with little to show for his art school education, John-Calum Macleod takes the ferry home to the island of Harris to find that not much has changed except for him. In the windswept croft where he grew up, Cal resumes his old life, caught between the two poles of his childhood: his father John, a sheep farmer, weaver, and pillar of their local Presbyterian church, and his Glaswegian grandmother Ella, who has kept a faltering peace with her son-in-law for decades. While Cal wonders if any lonely men might be found on the barren hillsides of home, John is dismayed by his son's long hair and how he seems unwilling to be Saved. As the seasons pass, everything is poised to change as the threads holding together the fragile community become increasingly entangled. John of John is the heartbreaking story of a young man's return home and how the bonds of family life are torn by the weight of expectation. It confirms Douglas Stuart as one of the great British writers at work today. Ideal for readers who: Follow Douglas Stuart for tender, exact writing about class, family and longing.

The new book from the author of the critically acclaimed KILLING THATCHER An extraordinary story that explores a pivotal moment in Anglo-Irish history that has implications for Europe and the wider world A narrative non-fiction that reads like a novel by an author at the top of his game Uses first class research to crate a page-turning history with a vast array of characters KILLING THATCHER was hailed as ‘non-fiction that reads like a first class thriller’ by Jonathan Freedland – and Rory’s new book promises to be a similarly exciting work of propulsive historical non-fiction From the master storyteller behind 2023’s critically acclaimed KILLING THATCHER A Rebel and a Traitor is the story of a rogue imperial consul who sought to forge a new nation in the middle of a war – and the mercurial spy chief who sought to destroy him by any means. The rogue consul was Sir Roger Casement, a decorated diplomat who turned his back on the British empire and instead joined the rising Irish cause at the turn of the 20th century. At the book’s centre is the manhunt for Casement led by intelligence officer Reginald ‘Blinker’ Hall, the legendary British spy chief who pioneered codebreaking, early mass surveillance and media manipulation. As he did for the critically acclaimed Killing Thatcher, master storyteller Rory Carroll has combed diaries, letters, police reports, memoirs, court transcripts, secret service archives and declassified government files in the US, Britain, Ireland and Germany to create a page-turning history, and a story that still echoes through Anglo-Irish relations. A Rebel and a Traitor raises profound questions about honour, courage and the price of patriotism. Ideal for readers who: Appreciate narrative non-fiction on Irish independence, empire and espionage. Follow a fugitive manhunt with political betrayal at its centre. Are interested in Anglo-Irish history shaped by spies, courts and wartime loyalties. Value meticulous research with the pace and tension of a thriller.

THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER A NEW YORK TIMES BEST BOOK OF THE 21ST CENTURY Now an FX TV series streaming on DISNEY+ 'Unquestionably one of the greatest literary achievements of the 21st century' Nick Hornby From the author of London Falling - a stunning, intricate narrative about a notorious killing in Northern Ireland and its devastating repercussions. One night in December 1972, Jean McConville, a mother of ten, was abducted from her home in Belfast and never seen alive again. Her disappearance would haunt her orphaned children, the perpetrators of this terrible crime and a whole society in Northern Ireland for decades. In this powerful, scrupulously reported book, Patrick Radden Keefe offers not just a forensic account of a brutal crime but a vivid portrait of the world in which it happened. The tragedy of an entire country is captured in the spellbinding narrative of a handful of characters, presented in lyrical and unforgettable detail. A poem by Seamus Heaney inspires the title: 'Whatever You Say, Say Nothing'. By defying the culture of silence, Keefe illuminates how a close-knit society fractured; how people chose sides in a conflict and turned to violence; and how, when the shooting stopped, some ex-combatants came to look back in horror at the atrocities they had committed, while others continue to advocate violence even today. Say Nothing deftly weaves the stories of Jean McConville and her family with those of Dolours Price, the first woman to join the IRA as a front-line soldier, who bombed the Old Bailey when barely out of her teens; Gerry Adams, who helped bring an end to the fighting, but denied his own IRA past; Brendan Hughes, a fearsome IRA commander who turned on Adams after the peace process and broke the IRA's code of silence; and other indelible figures. By capturing the intrigue, the drama and the profound human cost of the Troubles, the book presents a searing chronicle of the lengths that people are willing to go to in pursuit of a political ideal, and the ways in which societies mend - or don't - in the aftermath of a long and bloody conflict. Ideal for readers who: Want narrative non-fiction with rigorous reporting on the Troubles and its human cost. Want to understand Northern Ireland history through one family’s tragedy and its aftermath. Appreciate true-crime writing that expands into politics, memory and moral complexity. Follow character-driven reportage that weaves multiple voices into a wider history.

Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there's no logical reason why I'm so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don't usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I'm flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn't help that he's buddy-buddy with my brother. And that his best friend has a crush on me. And that I just moved in with them. Oh, did I not mention we're roommates? I suppose it doesn't matter. Fitzy has made it clear he's not interested in me, even though the sparks between us are liable to burn our house down. I'm not the kind of girl who chases after a man, though, and I'm not about to start. I've got my hands full dealing with a new school, a sleazy professor, and an uncertain future. So if my sexy brooding roomie wises up and realises what he's missing? He knows where to find me. Ideal for readers who: Adore new adult contemporary romance, sports romance, and "opposites attract" love stories. Are hooked by a classic forced-proximity premise involving a tattoo-covered hockey player and his brother's flighty new roommate. Enjoy a modern university setting complete with college sports, campus drama, and the chaos of shared student housing. Crave a witty, high-energy reading experience packed with slow-burn tension, banter, and explosive romantic sparks.
