Celebrating International Translation Day with Kazimierz Moczarski`s Conversations with an Executioner translated by the award-winning Sean Gasper Bye.

Never before published in the United Kingdom, Conversations with an Executioner is a book of enormous historical importance.

`Quite simply one of the most remarkable books to emerge out of World War Two... it gives an insight into the Nazi mind that is as fascinating as it is chilling. Outstanding` Roger Moorhouse

Well… here she is! 💜📚

I’m so excited to finally reveal the cover of MADAME BLANC AND THE ANTIQUES AFFAIR – the very first novel from the world of The Madame Blanc Mysteries.

Written with the brilliant R.W. Green, this is a brand new mystery that takes us back to before the TV series began – and gives you the chance to discover a little more about Jean White and her life before Sainte Victoire.

I’ve lived with Jean and the world of Madame Blanc for such a long time, so it’s been an absolute joy to bring her to the page and tell a story we couldn’t tell on screen.

And I LOVE this cover! What do you think? 💜

Madame Blanc and The Antiques Affair is out this November and you can PRE-ORDER it now – link in bio.

I can’t wait for you all to read it! 🔎🖼️📖

‘It’s like riding abreast with a friend who happens to be one of Britain’s most astute, witty travel writers. A lively portrait of our strange little island, from a man who has perfected the art of the travelogue’ Greg Dickinson, The Telegraph

From campers, conservationists, walkers, landowners, farmers, small business owners, commoners, pony lovers, newcomers, tourists, birders and artists – everyone is seeking something different from the hills, dales and waters of the UK. Yet all share the urge for space, fresh air, beauty and the humbled humanity it brings. This is a page-turning, revealing perspective of the British and the wild-ish landscapes they love.

#ASplintering #DurEAzizAmna #OutNow #PublicationDay

Meet Tara. Ambitious, restless, angry and unapologetically complicated. She wants more from life — more freedom, more possibility, more power — and she isn’t always going to make the choices we want her to make.

But why do we need our female characters to be relatable in the first place?

A Splintering is a gripping story of motherhood, obsession and ambition, centred on a woman who refuses to be easily liked, judged or forgotten.

Meet Tara for yourself when A Splintering comes to paperback 10 September.
