The Montgomery House was once a crown jewel of the White Mountains. Perched on a cliff with stunning views, it offered up summertime adventures, winter skiing and family get-togethers around the large log fire. 
 
Until . . . late one October night, a power cut - and the Montgomery parents and their four children vanish, leaving behind a trail of bloody footprints, a derelict house of secrets, and an enduring mystery that no one can solve. 
 
But the formerly grand mansion is once more stirring into life. For Bee and Theo Davis, who've met, married and moved from downtown Boston in a matter of months, this is their forever home, and all is going well - until a young girl arrives with no memory of the property yet an unerring knowledge of where the first skeleton is hidden. 
 
Now, Bee and Theo face a daunting choice of what to believe, who to trust, and how to survive. Because in the tiny village of Shereford the time has come to unravel the events that happened one terrifying night thirty years ago . . .

After thirty long years, Louisa’s daughters can finally look after themselves … or so she thinks. 
 
Because suddenly, they’re back – apparently for good. Meg’s second-guessing her marriage. Jo’s career hangs in the balance. Amy has inexplicably quit university. None of them empty the dishwasher. 
 
Louisa knows it’s time for some life lessons. She adores her girls, but if she’s ever going to get her (sex) life back, they’ll have to grow up – and go. 
 
But maybe they’re not the only ones with lessons to learn… And Louisa might just discover that her daughters have something to teach her about being an adult too.

All Grown Up

Katherine Arden

Anne of Brittany was a child when her land was invaded, her castle besieged, and her royal father driven to his death. 
 
Now Brittany is occupied by her enemies, her treasury empty, and only one thing is lacking to complete her realm’s subjugation: she is required, on pain of the sword, to marry the King of France. 
 
But Anne cannot. She has promised her dead father that Brittany would never be conquered. 
 
Defiantly, she betroths herself in secret to France’s greatest enemy. But in a world where courts may spy on each other by magic, there is only one way to solemnize this illicit union. 
 
Under the guise of a hunting party, Anne takes her court deep into a deep forest, a strange place dogged with rumours of ancient enchantments; a place where diviners cannot see. She tells the French that she had gone there to hunt unicorns. 
 
It’s a ruse, a lie, a feint. 
 
But when, against all expectations, a unicorn does appear and a wounded stranger stumbles from the trees and falls at her feet, Anne is plunged into a world of enchantment where a doomed sovereign might find the power to change the destiny of her nation - or be lost in the mist for ever.

In the middle of shooting, the actor playing Hawthorne is stabbed – which leaves the real Hawthorne with no choice. He has to step in and investigate his own murder. 
 
Because the killer may not have got the right man. Was it Hawthorne himself who was meant to be the target?
