*** THE TIMES - THRILLER OF THE MONTH*** *** MAIL ON SUNDAY - BEST NEW FICTION*** *** FINANCIAL TIMES - BEST NEW CRIME BOOKS*** 'A crackling good police procedural....fresh and exhilarating' STEPHEN KING 'S. A. Cosby's novels always hit the grand slam of crime fiction; unstoppable momentum, gripping intrigue and deep character with a hard and telling look at culture and society' MICHAEL CONNELLY 'Titus Crown is one of the most compelling characters I've read in a long time.' STEVE CAVANAGH A BLACK SHERIFF. A SERIAL KILLER. AND A SMALL TOWN READY TO COMBUST. Titus Crown is the first Black sheriff in the history of Charon County, Virginia. In recent decades, Charon has had only two murders. After years of working as an FBI agent, no one knows better than Titus that while his hometown might seem like a land of moonshine, cornbread, and honeysuckle, secrets always fester under the surface. But a year to the day after Titus's election, a school teacher is killed by a former student. The student is then fatally shot by Titus's deputies. As Titus investigates the shootings, he unearths terrible crimes, and a serial killer who has been hiding in plain sight, haunting the dirt lanes and woodland clearings of Charon. With the killer's possible connections to a local church and the town's harrowing history weighing on him, Titus tries to project confidence about closing the case while concealing a painful secret from his own past. At the same time, he also has to contend with a far-right group that wants to hold a parade in celebration of the town's Confederate history. Charon is Titus's home and his heart. But where faith and violence meet, there will be a reckoning. 'Richly textured, this is elegant, fierce storytelling at its absolute best.'

You were taught to be “good.” Polite. Agreeable. Grateful. You did exactly what you were told—and it cost you your voice, your choices, and your life. If you’ve been biting your tongue, over-apologizing, saying yes when you meant no, or following “rules” you never agreed to…The Permission Mission will help you trust your own voice and take your life back. This isn’t your life. It’s the result of compliance. You’ve walked away from conversations thinking, I wish I had said something? You’ve talked yourself out of the raise, the boundary, the opportunity, the dream—because a louder voice (yours or someone else’s) told you not to make waves? The Permission Mission is your wake-up call and your roadmap if you’re tired of living a life that works for everyone but you. Dr. Cindy McGovern helps you identify the “backup singers” in your head (the old voices, expectations, unspoken rules, and borrowed beliefs that keep drowning out what you actually want). Then, she hands the microphone back to the only voice that matters: yours . You’ll embark on your own personal permission mission, where the insights you gain actually become the momentum you need, even when you second-guess yourself. Because confidence isn’t something you’re born with. It’s something you build, one brave decision at a time. On your journey, you’ll learn how to: • Spot the invisible rules you’ve been living by—and break the ones holding you back. • Clean out your emotional closet and ditch the old stories, rules, and doubts that are holding you back. • Turn fear into forward motion by using imposter syndrome and self-doubt as your launchpad, not your limitations. • Own your worth without shrinking, over-explaining, or self-editing. • Say no without guilt, yes to what matters, and speak up where it counts. • Get out of your head and out of your own way. • Advocate for what you want—at home, at work, and in the conversations that shape your future (yes, even negotiation and “selling”). • Give yourself permission instead of asking or waiting for it. So, whether you’re just starting out, starting over, or simply sick of playing small, The Permission Mission gives you the strategy, support, and spark to finally go after what’s yours. These pages won’t tell you who to be. They remind you who you already are. This book is your invitation to come back to yourself. The only permission you need is your own.

From rare book dealer and guest star of the hit show Pawn Stars, a page-turning literary adventure featuring "your favorite author's favorite authors" (Today)—the women who inspired Jane Austen—that's "a meditation on reading and writing, on honesty and self-discovery—and on what books can teach us, if we let them" (The Washington Post). Long before she was a rare book dealer, Rebecca Romney was a devoted reader of Jane Austen. She loved that Austen's books took the lives of women seriously, explored relationships with wit and confidence, and always, allowed for the possibility of a happy ending. She read and reread them, often wishing Austen wrote just one more. But Austen wasn't a lone genius. She wrote at a time of great experimentation for women writers—and clues about those women, and the exceptional books they wrote, are sprinkled like breadcrumbs throughout Austen's work. Every character in Northanger Abbey who isn't a boor sings the praises of Ann Radcliffe. The play that causes such a stir in Mansfield Park is a real one by the playwright Elizabeth Inchbald. In fact, the phrase "pride and prejudice" came from Frances Burney's second novel Cecilia. The women that populated Jane Austen's bookshelf profoundly influenced her work; Austen looked up to them, passionately discussed their books with her friends, and used an appreciation of their books as a litmus test for whether someone had good taste. So where had these women gone? Why hadn't Romney—despite her training—ever read them? Or, in some cases, even heard of them? And why were they no longer embraced as part of the wider literary canon? Jane Austen's Bookshelf investigates the disappearance of Austen's heroes—women writers who were erased from the Western canon—to reveal who they were, what they meant to Austen, and how they were forgotten. Each chapter profiles a different writer including Frances Burney, Ann Radcliffe, Charlotte Lennox, Charlotte Smith, Hannah More, Elizabeth Inchbald, Hester Lynch Thrale Piozzi, and Maria Edgeworth—and recounts Romney's experience reading them, finding rare copies of their works, and drawing on connections between their words and Austen's. Romney collects the once-famed works of these forgotten writers, physically recreating Austen's bookshelf and making a convincing case for why these books should be placed back on the to-be-read pile of all book lovers today. Jane Austen's Bookshelf will encourage you to look beyond assigned reading lists, question who decides what belongs there, and build your very own collection of favorite novels.

In that connection, we can be guided to our true purpose: to be love and spread love. These words can no longer be cute buzz phrases that we merely post on social media.

Ali Heath's books never fail to inspire me.” - Leanne Ford @leannefordinteriors “Ali Heath is not only a gifted writer, interior stylist, and mentor but also a warm-hearted woman and a cherished friend. Her sensitivity to moods, emotions, and creativity is something truly special. In her latest book, COCOON, she takes us into lived-in homes and spaces that feel deeply personal. Her style is romantic, tactile, and carefully curated, with each piece exuding a vintage charm. The blend of decor, antiques, books, art, and furniture creates a seamless narrative of a life well lived. There's not a single page where you wouldn't want to linger.” - Malene Birger @malenebirgers_world "In three comprehensive sections packed with rich photography and expert advice, this practical yet inspiring guide will give you the confidence to try it yourself" - Elle Decoration "It's clear that the spaces and wisdom featured in Create come from the heart.

Cocoon beautifully captures this essence of intentional living through spaces that prioritize comfort, connection, and personal meaning over perfection." - Shira Gill @shiragill *** In her third book Cocoon, interior stylist, designer and writer Ali Heath invites the reader to create a home sanctuary that focuses on the human touch, as an antidote to our fast-paced, tech-driven modern world. This way of decorating is so much more than just a look or style - it's about taking a holistic approach that draws upon all our senses, not just the visual, and connects us more meaningfully to ourselves and our surroundings. In the past creating a sanctuary was about the decoration of a few key rooms, now it is about how the home as a whole makes us feel. Cocooning is not about isolation or shutting down and does not have to mean going off-grid - it is simply about tuning back into our emotions, creativity and curiosity to satisfy our need for shelter, comfort
