It's the summer of 1951 and everyone is looking to put the dark days of the war behind them. The government's solution: The Festival of Britain, a celebration of the country's creativity, grit and ingenuity. For foreign correspondent turned war reporter Harry Flynn, it might offer the chance of redemption after a bad war in the Far East and a peace that is proving no easier to negotiate. Having failed to resume his journalistic career, he reluctantly joins an oddball team of misfits, ne'er-do-wells and downright chancers helping to ready the Festival of Britain for launch. Flynn's attempts to resume some semblance of a romantic life also founder when one of his dates goes missing and he is deemed to be the last person to have seen her alive. Could he have been in some way responsible for her disappearance? Little does he realize that the answer to some of his mounting problems may lie in the hands of a precocious, straight-talking thirteen-year-old called Veronica and a rather scruffy terrier who goes by the name of Mrs Betty... Brilliantly plotted, witty and compelling, Our Noble Selves reaffirms Kate Atkinson's place as one of the greatest chroniclers of our times.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PRH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42372305682512,"sku":"9781529937831","price":34.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0211\/2428\/files\/9781529937831_1_1d0f6abf-54d3-4dcd-88e3-5491a4651015.jpg?v=1784952054"},{"product_id":"healing-hippo-of-hinode-park","title":"Healing Hippo Of Hinode Park","description":"\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e.cs97DFFCB{12pt;font-weight:normal;color:#000000;font-style:normal;Times New Roman;} .cs3270F94{margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0pt;text-align:left;text-indent:0pt}\u003c\/style\u003e\r\n\t\r\n\t\u003cp class=\"cs3270F94\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs97DFFCB\"\u003eThe brand new novel by the multi-million-copy bestselling author of WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR IS IN THE LIBRARY The brand new novel by the author of WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR IS IN THE LIBRARY now available in translation ___________ Readers adore Healing Hippo- 'I wanted to discover the magical hippo in myself as I read this book' ***** 'How does Aoyama depict human emotion so vividly?

I knew as I made my way home that there was no home. All the old things . . . were gone forever. Against this rapidly shifting landscape, Tennyson Bouguereau - freed man, devoted brother, nascent singer, conflicted soldier and wanted man - journeys to find meaning and belonging. From the relative safety of home in Tennessee with his sister Rosalee, he is offered the possibility of a whole new life in Nashville, until a surprising trip to Victorian England changes everything. Exquisitely rendered, and with a rich cast of characters,The Newer World is a lyrical, visceral novel about what it is to survive, and what might be lost along the way.

CHARLOTTE WOOD You can't choose your family, but you can choose your enemies. 1945: It's the dying days of the war. A triumphant Josef Stalin has the world's future in his hands, but leading up to the Potsdam peace conference he is restless and paranoid, increasingly suspicious that his ambitious security overlord Lavrentiy Beria is plotting against him. Beria has a secret weapon, his best friend's daughter. A patriot and devotee of Papa Stalin, Melor Murtova has returned from a two-year exile to become Beria's adopted daughter, and his eyes and ears among the nepo babies of the Kremlin. In this palace of intrigue and deception, Melor must play a dangerous game, outwitting treacherous power plays and the capricious whims of her frenemies, while conducting a secret mission of her own: to find out who murdered her parents before her time runs out. Against a backdrop of international politics, spying and the true-history intrigue of the closing days of World War Two, The Second Child is a chilling black comedy about survival in the court of madmen. 'The Second Child is fast paced, resolutely playful and resolutely serious. That Knox can create such sparkling black comedy from one of the most morally compromised moments of the tragic twentieth century speaks volumes of his terrific talents and instincts as a writer.' CHRISTOS TSIOLKAS 'The Second Child takes us on a forensically researched, rollicking, deeply sinister and, yes, side-splitting journey through the treachery, paranoia, madness and shameless nepotism of Stalin's post-war court. LOL-ing at authoritarianism never felt quite so good or timely.' PAUL DALEY 'Unsettling, intelligent, and exacting. Tender in its attention to the ways we love, and brutal in its portrayal of the damage we do to one another. It's as unsettling as it is intelligent-and impossible to put down until you get to the end.' SHANKARI CHANDRAN 'Frighteningly funny, darkly moving and riveting from the start. This is a story of their time, but also of ours.' RICHARD GLOVER 'Malcolm Knox follows the spectacular The First Friend with a thrilling sequel in The Second Child-a gripping, thoroughly contemporary satire of postwar Kremlin offspring and their sadistic strongman dads. Holding up a dark mirror to our own collapsing democracies, The Second Child glitters with intrigue and vicious wit. This is Knox at his most ambitious, scathing, hilarious best.'

Decades after its closure, a massive class action lawsuit has resulted in a multibillion-dollar settlement for former residents. But when Bosch's half-brother, defense attorney Mickey Haller, brings him word that Harry is entitled to $400,000, Bosch says he doesn't want the money. He wants justice. News of the settlement awakens his memories of a place he had hoped never to revisit, and a boy named Chops, a fellow inmate who wound up dead. Chops's body was found in a hidden space under a staircase that the staff used to discipline their charges. The kids knew it only as \"the hollow.\" But Chops's death was covered up and never solved. Now Bosch knows he must reopen the investigation and learn the truth, even if the killer is long dead. As Bosch digs into the files, he picks up the trail of a predator who not only survived, but went on to a life of vicious crime. Forced to face a history that both scarred him and launched him on his mission as a cop, Bosch must bring down a sadistic criminal and finally put to rest the demons of his past.

When micro-influencer Tom Burne takes his own life, he leaves behind his phone, its password and a cryptic message that needs decoding. Seventeen-year-old Jamie doesn't intend to take the phone, but once he does, he knows it was meant for him. Fuelled by his own sense of isolation and the recent passing of his father, Jamie loses himself in uncovering the truth. The more he investigates the digital fragments contained within the phone, the deeper into Tom's dark world he falls.

When the Marquis of Queensbury left his calling card at the Albemarle Club in February 1895, it bore only his name and five words: 'For Oscar Wilde, posing Somdomite'. The most feted playwright of his day famously sued for libel, which led to his arrest, criminal prosecution and ultimately prison. From then on, his gilded existence spiralled into public disgrace, humiliation and an early death. But what if he had simply ignored the insult? What direction might his life have taken? This is the premise of John Boyne's extraordinary new novel, The Weight of Angels. Rather than dying in penury in Paris at the age of forty-six, what if he had lived to bear witness to the momentous events and cataclysmic changes of the first part of the twentieth century, and even influence some of them? What if the second half of his life were as celebrated, dramatic, tumultuous and exhilarating as the first? In imagining the life that Oscar Wilde never had, John Boyne has written one of the great what-if stories of modern literature, giving the great Anglo-Irish poet and playwright a fresh new voice and the opportunity to take an entirely different path.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PRH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42800028975184,"sku":"9781529943856","price":34.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0211\/2428\/files\/9781529943856_1.jpg?v=1785115905"},{"product_id":"hollywood-ending","title":"Hollywood, Ending","description":"\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e.cs97DFFCB{12pt;font-weight:normal;color:#000000;font-style:normal;Times New Roman;} .cs3270F94{margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0pt;text-align:left;text-indent:0pt}\u003c\/style\u003e\r\n\t\r\n\t\u003cp class=\"cs3270F94\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs97DFFCB\"\u003e#1 bestselling author John Green makes his much-anticipated return to fiction with a behind-the-scenes Hollywood love story that brilliantly confronts the private cost of a public life.

Jay Gardiner has given himself a fool's errand-to find the remains of his deceased father in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Monastery Beach. He knows it's a long shot, but Jay feels it's the only way for him to lift the weight of guilt he has carried since his dad's death by suicide the previous year. The dive begins well enough, but the sudden appearance of a giant squid puts Jay in very real jeopardy, made infinitely worse by the arrival of a sperm whale looking to feed. Suddenly, Jay is caught in the squid's tentacles and drawn into the whale's mouth where he is pulled into the first of its four stomachs.

Plenty of action, plenty of fun.\" —Kirkus Reviews When ex-Navy SEAL Salam \"Fade\" al-Fayed steps in front of a sniper's bullet, he assumes that he's reached the end of the road—his death wish has finally been answered. Instead, he wakes in a hospital. As one of the deadliest operatives in U.S. history, he's now incapable of even standing without assistance. Alone and wanted by authorities, he's destined to spend the rest of his life lying in a prison infirmary. So when a shadowy organization offers him a new identity and next-generation medical care, he has no choice but to agree. Nothing's free, though. After a grueling rehabilitation, he's drafted into an elite paramilitary unit equipped with cutting-edge military technology. But who's in charge? A dire threat soon provides the answer: a highly contagious pathogen explodes out of China, and a select group of the world's wealthiest and most powerful people decide that governments are no longer capable of controlling the chaos erupting around the globe. It's a power grab by billionaires who've decided that it's their time to rule. With panic rising worldwide, the leaders of both democracies and dictatorships prove equally willing to destroy anything and anyone to save themselves. Forced into action before he's fully ready, Fade finds himself at the sharp end of a mission to stop a menace unlike any he's faced before. If he fails, the consequences will be unimaginable. But what if he succeeds? No one elected the people he's working for. And God sure as hell didn't ordain them. Has he signed on to save the human race . . . or to help quietly enslave it? Fade In tackles the complex threats of international espionage, power imbalances, and global terrorism–and introduces a character destined to take his place among legends like Vince Flynn’s Mitch Rapp, Robert Ludlum’s Jason Bourne, Lee Child’s Jack Reacher, and Daniel Silva’s Gabriel Allon. \"The prose snaps and hums. . .

Completely extraordinary' DAISY JOHNSON A mesmerising portrait of an ageing man's last pilgrimage, from the bestselling author of The Girls and The Guest A private plane cuts through the winter night, somewhere over Greenland. David, a retired executive, sits back in his leather seat, playing solitaire on his phone. Click. Click. Drag. Click. The notebook in his jacket pocket is filled with familiar phrases, urgent reminders to himself, but he struggles to recognize his own handwriting. A mystery, among many mysteries. The world, once so knowable, has been rendered inscrutable. This is what David knows: Cody, his assistant, asleep in the seat next to him, will shepherd him along the voyage. A stopover in London. Dinner with his adult daughter. A meeting in France with an old friend, estranged for decades. His final destination is Zurich. David glides through hotel rooms and airports and foreign cities, running out the clock on his mortal life. His grasp on the present slips away, and the past rushes in: the Sunday roasts of childhood. The stiff clothes meant only for church. A summer at a school friend's house. The losses and missteps that punctuate a life. As David's arrival in Zurich looms, an exquisitely rendered portrait of an unravelling mind emerges, both darkly humorous and profoundly moving. Hypnotic and startlingly original, Switzy probes the depths of human consciousness, revealing what a man is left with when the accomplishments and compromises that have defined him, and the illusions he's relied on, vanish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PRH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42801659576400,"sku":"9781784746650","price":34.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0211\/2428\/files\/9781784746650_1.jpg?v=1785200142"},{"product_id":"munich-affair","title":"Munich Affair","description":"\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e.cs97DFFCB{12pt;font-weight:normal;color:#000000;font-style:normal;Times New Roman;} .cs3270F94{margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0pt;text-align:left;text-indent:0pt}\u003c\/style\u003e\r\n\t\r\n\t\u003cp class=\"cs3270F94\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs97DFFCB\"\u003eA gripping thriller inspired by the unsolved murder of Hitler's twenty-one-year-old niece.

Detective Inspector Thomas Bauer knows it's murder. The victim is Geli Raubal - Hitler's niece, prisoner, and secret shame. Within hours, Bauer's investigation is shut down. Witnesses are silenced. Evidence disappears. As the Nazi movement gathers power, the truth must be kept hidden at all costs. Only Bauer dares to keep digging. Decades later, historian Eleanor Robbins uncovers traces of a story erased from the record - a vanished investigation and proof of crimes buried for nearly a century. The truth can change history.

Her father remains a mystery, and her mother died under that very tree, gently held by its cradle of roots as Aliet came into the world. But now the world beyond their small community is changing. Local women are increasingly reluctant to follow traditional birthing rituals, and at the hospital, white doctors are sceptical of Indigenous practices. Aliet and Kiju are distraught to witness their prejudice turn into condemnation, but decades later, Aliet too will move away and work as a nurse in the city, administering modern medicine while still holding her grandmother's wisdom dear. When Kiju passes away suddenly, grief-stricken Aliet understands that she must return to the tree: only these roots can help her reconnect with her heritage, and discover long-buried secrets about herself. It is the start of Aliet's journey to protect her land, her traditions, and the memory of the women who came before her, as she decides which parts of her inheritance she will carry into the future.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PRH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42801686904912,"sku":"9780241828380","price":34.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0211\/2428\/files\/9780241828380_1.jpg?v=1785200721"}],"url":"https:\/\/beaumarisbooks.com.au\/collections\/latest-fiction-releases.oembed?page=8","provider":"Beaumaris Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
