India, December 1803. The British army are closing in on enemy troops in western India, and Ensign Richard Sharpe, freshly promoted yet unsure of his position, finds himself vulnerable. He's unwelcome among the officers, yet finds hidden enemies within the ranks. With no-one he can trust, Sharpe is in serious danger when an old adversary arrives on his trail, and a terrible act of betrayal draws him into the eye of the storm. All roads lead to Gawilghur, a legendary, impregnable fortress in the sky. In the heart of enemy territory, the British carry out a near-impossible siege, and joining the front line, risking his honour and reputation in a battle that will test him as never before, is Sharpe. 372pp, paperback.

The first Alan Lewrie, this action-packed naval adventure is ideal for fans of C. S. Forester, Patrick O'Brian and Julian Stockwin. His exploits echo with the bustle of crowded ports and the crash of naval warfare. It is 1780 and 17 year old Alan Lewrie is a brash young libertine with a head full of dreams. When he is found in bed with the wrong woman, he is forced to leave his profligacy behind for a new life at sea. Although sickness and hard labour await him aboard the tall-masted Ariadne, Lewrie finds himself gradually adapting to the world of a midshipman. But as he heads for the war-torn Americas and into a hail of cannonballs, will he ever catch wind of the plot brewing against him back at home? 407pp, paperback.

Meanwhile, Mma Makutsi hires a part time science teacher as an assistant and suspects that her authority is being undermined. Will Mma Ramotswe be caught out?

Home Place, Sussex, 1939. As the shadows of the Second World War roll in, banishing the sun-drenched days of childish games and trips to the coast, a new generation of Cazalets takes up the family's story. Louise who dreams of becoming a great actress finds herself facing the harsh reality that her parents have their own lives with secrets, passions and yearnings. Clary, an aspiring writer, learns that her beloved father Rupert is now missing somewhere on the shores of France. And sensitive, imaginative Polly feels stuck - without a vocation, without information about her mother's illness, without anything except her nightmares about the war. Beautifully and poignantly told, the novel is the second in the bestselling Cazalet Chronicles, charming, poignant and quite irresistible, to be shared and cherished. 592pp, paperback. Both volumes have family trees and were published in the early 1990s originally. Beautiful rejacketed reprint paperbacks.
