Brand new book directly from the publisher. Signed by the author! 

Walking Around England and Wales

In June 2018 Laurence Carter set off on a one-year walk of 4,314 miles around the coast of England and Wales, in honour of his late wife Melitta. He sought to raise awareness that cervical cancer can be eliminated in a generation. Before he left, a stranger told him that the people he met would change him. They did! This inspiring book recounts how those stories enabled the author to move beyond grief to finding love again. A perfect book for anyone recovering from grief, or who enjoys walking, or who relishes quirky stories. "A touching exploration of turning grief into action." - Kirkus Reviews "...a beautifully moving and often humorous account of Laurence's incredible journey around the coastlines of England and Wales, battling the inclement British weather in a pair of shorts..." - Jo's Cervical Cancer Trust Full Kirkus Review: A widower reflects on grief, family, and the power of love in this debut memoir and travelogue. Carter first met Melitta Alevropoulos in the southeastern African nation of Malawi, where they were both working in the 1980s. On their first social outing together with a group of mutual friends, the pair hiked up Mount Mulanje, where the two held hands and fell in love. More than two decades later, married with three children, the couple first heard the devastating diagnosis that Melitta had terminal cervical cancer. In this poignant reflection on loss, Carter writes that he cried not only for the life of his partner but "for the graduations and weddings she would miss, the grandchildren she would never see, our children, and myself." After a year of grieving, the author decided to act on his wife's "simple credo that we should leave the world a better place." Fittingly, given Melitta's love of the outdoors, Carter decided to complete a 4,295-mile walk along the coasts of England and Wales as part of a yearlong awareness and fundraising campaign fighting cervical cancer. "Buttressed by purpose, support from friends and strangers, and CRUK [Cancer Research UK]," he writes, the journey taught him the "salving power of the outdoors" and introduced him to a network of other individuals whose lives had been upended by cervical cancer. Leavening his journey through grief with more lighthearted tales of his walk, he describes one of "the seven marvels of my tasting world" the first sip of beer after a day of physical exertion in the hot sun. An optimist by nature, the author repeatedly reminds readers of the importance of living a full life with those we love. At just under 200 total pages, this accessible book features a conversational, engaging text that is accompanied by maps of the 373-day trek. With all sales proceeds going to Jo's Cervical Cancer Trust, this is a moving tribute to a wife, mother, and daughter taken too soon. A touching exploration of turning grief into action.

Brené Brown

How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead

The #1 New York Times bestseller. More than 2 million copies sold! Look for Brené Brown’s new podcast, Dare to Lead, as well as her ongoing podcast Unlocking Us! From thought leader Brené Brown, a transformative new vision for the way we lead, love, work, parent, and educate that teaches us the power of vulnerability. “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; . . . who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly.”—Theodore Roosevelt Every day we experience the uncertainty, risks, and emotional exposure that define what it means to be vulnerable or to dare greatly. Based on twelve years of pioneering research, Brené Brown PhD, MSW, dispels the cultural myth that vulnerability is weakness and argues that it is, in truth, our most accurate measure of courage. Brown explains how vulnerability is both the core of difficult emotions like fear, grief, and disappointment, and the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, empathy, innovation, and creativity. She writes: “When we shut ourselves off from vulnerability, we distance ourselves from the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives.” Daring Greatly is not about winning or losing. It’s about courage. In a world where “never enough” dominates and feeling afraid has become second nature, vulnerability is subversive. Uncomfortable. It’s even a little dangerous at times. And, without question, putting ourselves out there means there’s a far greater risk of getting criticized or feeling hurt. But when we step back and examine our lives, we will find that nothing is as uncomfortable, dangerous, and hurtful as standing on the outside of our lives looking in and wondering what it would be like if we had the courage to step into the arena—whether it’s a new relationship, an important meeting, the creative process, or a difficult family conversation. Daring Greatly is a practice and a powerful new vision for letting ourselves be seen.

Manda Collins

An intrepid female reporter matches wits with a serious, sexy detective in award-winning author Manda Collin's fun and flirty historical rom-com, perfect for readers of Evie Dunmore, Julia Quinn, and Tessa Dare! England, 1865: As one of England's most notorious newspaper columnists, Lady Katherine Bascomb believes knowledge is power. And she's determined to inform and educate the ladies of London on the nefarious-and deadly-criminals who are praying on the fairer sex. When her reporting leads to the arrest of a notorious killer, however, Katherine flees to a country house party to escape her newfound notoriety-only to witness a murder on her very first night. And when the lead detective accuses Katherine of inflaming-rather than informing-the public with her column, she vows to prove him wrong. Detective Inspector Andrew Eversham's refusal to compromise his investigations nearly cost him his own career, and he blames Katherine. To avoid bad publicity, his superiors are pressuring him to solve cases quickly rather than correctly. When he discovers she's the key witness in a new crime, he's determined to prevent the beautiful widow from once again wreaking havoc on his case. Yet as Katherine proves surprisingly insightful and Andrew impresses Katherine with his lethal competency, both are forced to admit the fire between them is more flirtatious than furious. But to explore the passion between them, they'll need to catch a killer.

Karin Slaughter

A Novel

The #1 internationally bestselling author returns with a new novel in the vein of the New York Times bestsellers Pretty Girls and The Good Daughter—a story even more electrifying, provocative, and suspenseful than anything she’s written before. What if the person you thought you knew best turns out to be someone you never knew at all . . . ? Andrea Cooper knows everything about her mother Laura. She’s knows she’s spent her whole life in the small beachside town of Gullaway Island; she knows she’s never wanted anything more than to live a quiet life as a pillar of the community; she knows she’s never kept a secret in her life. Because we all know our mothers, don’t we? But all that changes when a Saturday afternoon trip to the mall explodes into violence and Andrea suddenly sees a completely different side to Laura. Because it turns out that before Laura was Laura, she was someone completely different. For nearly thirty years she’s been hiding from her previous identity, lying low in the hope that no one will ever find her. But now she’s been exposed, and nothing will ever be the same again. Twenty-four hours later Laura is in the hospital, shot by an intruder who’s spent thirty years trying to track her down and discover what she knows. Andrea is on a desperate journey following the breadcrumbs of her mother’s past. And if she can’t uncover the secrets hidden there, there may be no future for either one of them. . . .

A Benign Extravagance

This work is an exploration of the difficult environmental and ethical issues that surround the human consumption of animal flesh. The world's meat consumption is rapidly rising, leading to devastating environmental impacts as well as having long term health implications for societies everywhere. The author lays out the reasons why we must decrease the amount of meat we eat, both for the planet and for ourselves. He argues, however, that the farming of animals for consumption has become problematic because we have removed ourselves physically and spiritually from the land. Our society needs to reorientate itself back to the land and the author explains why an agriculture that is most readily able to achieve this is one that includes a measure of livestock farming. -- From publisher.
