*************************
estchester, New York, 1976–Cocaine abuse is rampant, the county courthouse is a boys’ club, and men are still legally permitted to beat their wives. Enter Dani Fox, the feisty, ambitious twenty-five-year-old assistant district attorney tired of feeling like an outsider and hungry to bring abusers to justice.
Dani confronts emotionally challenging crime scenes and uncooperative colleagues, facing threats to her safety–and even the safety of her pet pig, Wilbur–in order to protect society’s silent victims. Spearheading the country’s first domestic violence unit in a shifting legal landscape, Dani must find allies where she can, especially when she discovers a seemingly simple case has some shocking twists. But who can she trust, and which of her colleagues will she end up battling both in and out of the courtroom?
Drawing from her own past as a dynamic, hard-charging former district attorney, Emmy-winning Judge Jeanine Pirro’s debut page-turner is ripped from the headlines, full of gripping details, authentic thrills, and suspenseful realism that can only come from a courtroom litigator who’s been in the trenches.

*************************
edalus specialises in fiction that could roughly be classified as gothic or arcane – or indeed gnostic. First published in 1995, this one immediately caught readers’ imaginations and has since become something of a contemporary classic. It has a cute frame opening (‘ It is not necessary for me to relate precisely how these memoirs fell into my hands…’ ) and an ugly, if memorable opening proper, reminiscent of the start of Earthly Powers: ‘ This morning his Holiness summoned me to read from St Augustine, while the physician applied unguents and salves to his suppurating arse…’ The rest is freakish couplings, religious sects, torture: a cracking read for all ages, then. Giles Foden in The Guardian

hat might have been an ordinary fishing trip becomes an unforgettable adventure when twelve-year-old Sawyer Brown pursues a legendary giant catfish and a stolen ring that may hold the key to his mother’s life.
Sawyer’s family runs a catfish farm in rural Mississippi. When his widowed mom gets sick after a pond “cat” swallows her wedding ring, Sawyer is sure the missing ring is to blame. Strange clues and a local myth convince him that the pond cat has become a meal for a far more challenging catch. He sets out with two friends and his stowaway little sister to solve the secret of the ring.
Journeying deep into a remote bayou, the foursome must rely on their wits and each other to navigate the teeming swamp, outsmart a sneaky poacher, and overcome their differences in pursuit of a colossal catfish. But this is no ordinary fish. This is Ol’ One Eye–the biggest, oldest, smartest, and meanest darn cat that ever swam the Yazoo River! And before long, the adventurers aren’t sure who is chasing who.
This is a fish tale that readers won’t want to miss.
