The Burial Club

Claire Bamford
Death may equalise all, but not every burial is equal. 
 
Like her mother, the free-spirited Marianne Walker has visions that always come true – though they are always unclear at first. When she begins seeing bloodied hands, she is afraid of her gift for the first time. 
 
After a custodian of the local Friendly Society is found dead, rumours of fraud and dishonesty spread. With help from the undertaker’s sister, Marianne works to uncover the disturbing truths behind the so-called Burial Club. 
 
​Only she has all the clues, but exposing the culprit could cost her the people she loves.

Small Dog, Large Thoughts: A Year with Cadbury​

Kate Robinson

This delightful book follows Cadbury the Busy Spaniel as he takes the reader through a year of his life in rural Somerset. Joined on the journey by a dim-witted and rather odorous Labrador, two ginger cats and a host of other interlopers, Cadbury has much to relate.

From the drive to chase pigeons, no matter how unsuccessful, to entering a local dog show, being wrongly accused of cat crimes and tolerating sheep, each chapter is imbued with the enthusiastic spirit of a lively, opinionated spaniel.

​Anyone who loves dogs will find much to enjoy in this amusing story.

The Hamster In My Head

James McKeon
Every day, Sophie has to live with the hamster in her head. This hamster is mean and critical. It loves nothing more than to make Sophie feel small, and it never, ever shuts up. Not even when Sophie is trying to sleep. Poor Sophie, she can’t take much more. 


Then help arrives in the form of the calm, kind Mrs Bartlett. With Mrs Bartlett’s help, can Sophie actually learn to love her hamster? 
​


This wonderfully illustrated therapeutic story book is a godsend for parents, carers, therapists, educators or any individual who knows a child that is struggling, like Sophie. It shows how the power of a relationship with an emotionally available adult can lead to internal feelings of safety, rebuilding self-esteem and increasing resilience.

Journey to An Ghrian: Plato’s Cave Allegory Reconceived 

Níall Lambkin
Journey to An Ghrian: Plato's Cave Allegory Reconceived, Vol. 1: Ruchbah, Bruegel, Meaning and the Whale — Consciousness, Bioengineering, and Existential Questions takes one of the oldest forms in philosophy — the dialogue — and employs it to explore one of the most urgent questions of our age: what do we owe to a being we have brought into consciousness? 

At the centre of the book is Ksora Ruchbah, a bioengineered entity in profound existential crisis, and Delta Cephei, a phenomenologist and analytic philosopher of mind. Their conversations — probing, ironic, and at moments deeply unsettling — enact a sustained argument: that Heideggerian existential analysis and analytic philosophy of mind are not rival traditions but complementary approaches, each incomplete without the other. Together they illuminate what consciousness requires to flourish — embodiment, community, heritage, temporal continuity — and why creating a conscious being without these conditions is an ethical failure of the first order. 

The book also advances an original theory of art. In Bruegel's The Harvesters and the counterpoint of Bach, temporality is not backdrop but argument: genuine aesthetic comprehension demands that the perceiver inhabits time, not merely observes it. 
​

Rigorous, formally inventive, and compellingly readable, Journey to An Ghrian is a serious work of philosophical fiction for readers willing to follow ideas to their conclusions.

Hayley Comet and the Hunt for Bigfoot

Colin Bonnington

With evidence of the hairy Bigfoot everywhere, join Hayley, her little dog, Cosmos, and her tentative friend, Macy Moon, as they try to catch it. Perhaps before ‘it’ catches them! As night falls, there’s no time to lose and the trap is set. But maybe things aren’t quite what they seem… or maybe they are? It’s hard to be certain under the cover of darkness. 
 
Come and follow the trail of clues with Hayley and her team and be prepared for one big adventure to find one big-footed monster!

Reignite: The Secret to Lifelong Passion and Intimacy - The Outside Sex Revolution ​

Michael J. Cook
What if everything you have been taught about sex, intimacy, and relationships was only half the story? 
​
Most couples start with passion burning hot, only to watch it fade into routine, distance, or silence. But behind every lost spark are hidden patterns, subconscious behaviours, old conditioning, and unspoken wounds that quietly shape our love lives. 
Reignite uncovers these invisible forces, then shows you how to break free, blending relationship psychology, subconscious awareness, and a revolutionary approach to intimacy that will transform the way you connect forever. 
​
Inside, you will discover: 
• Why passion fades, and the subconscious programs driving it 
• How self-love, presence, and awareness unlock deeper intimacy 
• The biology of female pleasure, and why most sex misses it 
• Outside Sex, a breakthrough intimacy method that redefines what is possible in the bedroom 
​
Whether you are in a long-term relationship or seeking deeper connection, Reignite is more than an intimacy guide, it is a blueprint for awakening passion, healing old patterns, and creating love that lasts a lifetime. 

​This is not just another book on relationships. It is the beginning of what many will come to recognise as the Outside Sex Revolution.
