It's a rich man's car, but when the dust settles there is no rich man at all, just a shell-shocked servant who cannot explain the strange series of events that led to this crime. Nor can he foresee the dark drama that is about to unfold.<br/>Deftly shifting through time and perspective in contemporary India, <i>Age of Vice</i> is an epic, action-packed story propelled by the seductive wealth, startling corruption, and bloodthirsty violence of the Wadia family-loved by some, loathed by others, feared by all.<br/><br/>In the shadow of lavish estates, extravagant parties, predatory business deals, and calculated political influence, three lives become dangerously intertwined: Ajay is the watchful servant, born into poverty, who rises through the family's ranks. Sunny is the playboy heir who dreams of outshining his father, whatever the cost. And Neda is the curious journalist caught between morality and desire. Against a sweeping plot fueled by loss, pleasure, greed, yearning, violence, and revenge, will these characters' connections become a path to escape, or a trigger of further destruction?<br/><br/>Equal parts crime thriller and family saga, transporting readers from the dusty villages of Uttar Pradesh to the urban energy of New Delhi,<i> Age of Vice </i>is an intoxicating novel of gangsters and lovers, false friendships, forbidden romance, and the consequences of corruption. It is binge-worthy entertainment at its literary best.</p>

Stop Them Dead Bok
<p>'Ruthlessly efficient, entertainment. Pedigree fun' - <b><i>The Times</i></b><br/><br/><b>Discover the darkness that lurks around every corner in the latest instalment of the award-winning Grace series, now a major ITV series.</b><br/><br/><b>A ruthless crime. A race against time.</b><br/><br/>In the dead of night, a farmer hears a suspicious noise. It's everyone's worst nightmare: a break-in. When he confronts the intruders, he has no idea that just minutes later he will be left lying in a pool of blood. But the chilling truth lies not in the act itself, but what the perpetrators were willing to kill for.<br/><br/>At the scene of the crime, Detective Superintendent Roy Grace senses something amiss. This is no mere botched robbery; it's the tip of the iceberg of a nationwide crime epidemic. Ruthless gangs, operating with military precision, have discovered a new black market flourishing in the shadows - an unthinkable source of wealth even more profitable than drugs.<br/><br/>Grace's investigation into this deadly trade pits him against some of the most ruthless people he has ever encountered; people who will kill anyone who gets in their way, because where there is greed, there is murder.<br/><br/>The clock is ticking, and the stakes have never been higher. Out of his element, and out of time, can Roy Grace put a stop to these criminal masterminds before more innocent lives are lost?<br/><br/>'Peter James is one of the best British crime writers, and therefore one of the best in the world.' - <b>LEE CHILD, author of The Jack Reacher series</b><br/><br/>'The master of the craft' - <i><b>DAILY EXPRESS</b></i></p>

All Hallows Bok
Perfect for fans of Stephen King and the 1980s nostalgia of Stranger Things. A gripping suburban nightmare from the New York Times-bestselling, Bram-Stoker Award-winning master of horror fiction. It's Halloween night, 1984, in Coventry, Massachusetts, and two families are unravelling. The Barbosas have opened their annual Haunted Woods attraction in the forest behind their house-the house they're about to lose. The Sweeneys are fighting about alcoholism and infidelity on their front lawn. Up the street, high-school senior Vanessa Montez is about to have her secrets exposed during the violent end to the neighbourhood's block party, while down the street, the truth about Ruth and Zack Burgess turns out to be even more horrifying than the rumours ever were. And all the while, mixed in with the trick-or-treaters of all ages, four children who do not belong are walking door to door, merging with the kids of Parmenter Road. Children in vintage costumes with faded, eerie makeup. Children who seem terrified, and who beg the neighbourhood kids to hide them away, to keep them safe from The Cunning Man. There's a small clearing in the woods now that was never there before, and a blackthorn tree that doesn't belong at all. These odd children claim that The Cunning Man is coming for them...and they want the local kids to protect them. But with families falling apart and the community splintered by bitterness, who will save the children of Parmenter Road? New York Times bestselling, Bram Stoker Award-winning author Christopher Golden is best known for his supernatural thrillers set in deadly, distant locales...but in this suburban Halloween drama, Golden brings the horror home.

Black Coffee Bok
<p>A full-length Hercule Poirot novel, adapted from Agatha Christie's stage play by Charles Osborne</p> <p>Sir Claud Amory's revolutionary new formula for a powerful explosive is stolen. Locking his house-guests in the library, Sir Claud switches off the lights to allow the thief to replace the formula, no questions asked. When the lights come on, he is dead, and Hercule Poirot and Captain Hastings have to unravel a tangle of family feuds, old flames and suspicious foreigners to find the killer and prevent a global catastrophe.</p> <p>BLACK COFFEE was Agatha Christie's first playscript, originally performed in 1930 and made into a now rarely-seen film the following year. Combining her typically beguiling plot and sparkling dialogue with his own faithful narrative, Charles Osborne's novelisation is 'A worthy addition to the Christie canon' (The Spectator)</p>

Robert Ludlum's (tm) The Bourne Sacrifice Bok
<b>Jason Bourne tackles a global media conspiracy and a murderous tech giant in the latest electrifying entry in Robert Ludlum's <i>New York Times</i> bestselling series.</b> Jason Bourne has faced many killers before, but none as dangerous as the assassin Lennon. Lennon's trail leads Bourne from Iceland to New York and then to Washington D.C. - and the body count rises with each deadly encounter. Bourne believes Lennon has a shadowy new employer called the Pyramid. The only clue to the group's agenda is a young German woman, murdered in D.C., but the woman's entire identity turns out to be a lie. Finding the truth may be Bourne's only chance to catch Lennon - and uncover the conspiracy behind the Pyramid. But the chase comes with high stakes. Bourne's former lover, journalist Abbey Laurent, is digging into the mystery too, and Abbey will soon be in the assassin's crosshairs. Bourne will need every bit of his tradecraft and his genius for mayhem to take down his biggest threat yet. <b>Praise for Brian Freeman's Bourne books:</b> 'Bourne fans will hope for an encore from this talented author' <b><i>Publishers Weekly</i></b> 'A treat for fans of the late Robert Ludlum' <b><i>Kirkus Reviews</i></b>

It is <b>exceptional story-telling, which leaves the reader begging for the novel never to end. Grisham has sold more than 300 million copies of his work. This shows exactly why' <i>DAILY MAIL</i></b><br/><br/>For most of the last hundred years, Biloxi was known for its beaches, resorts, and seafood industry. But it had a darker side. It was also notorious for corruption and vice, everything from gambling, prostitution, bootleg liquor, drugs . . . even contract killings. The vice was controlled by a small cabal of mobsters, many of them rumoured to be members of the Dixie Mafia.<br/><br/>Keith Rudy and Hugh Malco grew up in Biloxi in the sixties and were childhood friends. But as teenagers, their lives took them in different directions. Keith's father became a legendary prosecutor, determined to 'clean up the Coast.' Hugh's father became the 'Boss' of Biloxi's criminal underground. Keith went to law school and followed in his father's footsteps. Hugh preferred the nightlife and worked in his father's clubs. The two families were headed for a showdown, one that would happen in a courtroom.<br/><br/>Rich with history and with a large cast of unforgettable characters, <i>The Boys from Biloxi</i> is a sweeping saga of two sons of immigrant families who grow up as friends, but ultimately find themselves in a knife-edge legal confrontation in which life itself hangs in the balance.<br/><br/><b>In this novel, Grisham takes his powerful storytelling to the next level, his trademark twists and turns will keep you tearing through the pages until the stunning conclusion.</b><br/><br/><i>'</i>It's a story that spans half a century and ends inevitably in a courtroom showdown. <b>A morally complex, compelling and illuminating read' <i>MAIL ON SUNDAY</i></b><br/><br/><b>'Invites comparisons with the Godfather trilogy</b> - it spans two generations and several postwar decades - and has a vast cast and a winning energy' <i><b>SUNDAY TIMES</b></i><br/><br/><b>350+ million</b> copies, <b>45</b> languages, <b>9</b> blockbuster films:<br/><b>NO ONE WRITES DRAMA LIKE JOHN GRISHAM</b></p>
