Don’t Forget to Pack the Humour, Honey : Philippa W. Joyner

Don't Forget to Pack the Humour, Honey : Philippa W. JoynerDon’t Forget to Pack the Humour, Honey

All we need are coffee beans, hair straighteners and a sense of humour on the 07:21 from Greater Bungchip to the smog of London Victoria. Don’t we? Okay, add a bottle of Prosecco or three.

Has the world gone mad, or is flighty, intelligent, mildly pragmatic, eloquent, yet totally quirky Honey Hollings in her late thirties, okay, early forties, experiencing life capturing its more cynical side?

Don’t Forget to Pack the Humour, Honey judges the ludicrous, the absurd, even the incongruous side of humanity as Honey travels loosely around upon the Great British Trains, and further afield.

How can Honey have possibly let scenario after scenario pass her by, all of her adult years, without at least noting it? Probably, she might add, because she simply did not have the time. But now, she has. Maybe she’s the only one laughing, but she thought she would give herself the chance to become a novelist. Why not? At least a novice novelist for starters.

Similar titles undoubtedly include Bill Bryson and his “Walk in the Woods” with Stephen Katz; Victoria Wood; Mo Willems and Peter Jenkins with a certain “Bridget Jones” appeal.

Bold Lions Survival Sense : Mark G Hobbs

Bold Lions Survival Sense : Mark G HobbsBold Lions Survival Sense

A critical problem hamstrung narcotics enforcement’s efforts in Jefferson County, Alabama–a major leak of secret intelligence.

Narcotics enforcement informants were being murdered. The flow of information was cut off, so investigations and court cases went nowhere. Narcotics enforcement units in the county were stymied by the leak that resulted in low narcotics enforcement cooperation and suspicions were high.

To solve this horrible mystery it would take people from opposite ends of the spectrum including a secretive rigid detective and an unimaginable series of events to unveil the truth. It would shock the entire state of Alabama.

This is the story of those people and improbable chain of events. It is a true story of corruption–redemption and cowardice–heroism.

A Single Journey : Frankie McGowan

A Single Journey : Frankie McGowanA Single Journey

Harriet has begun to despair of her life.

With a failed relationship behind her, a business on the rocks and a flat that’s falling apart around her ears, she could really use some luck.

Elena Banbury, née Guseva, an elderly but imposing Russian woman who is Harriet’s neighbour and landlady, frequently entertains the punters at Harriet’s jewellery stall with tales of the palaces of St. Petersburg and the treasures of Fabergé. But Harriet sometimes feels, guiltily, that she could do without the endless errands that seem to fall to her as Elena’s friend.

Then, unexpectedly, when Elena dies, she leaves all her worldly goods to a grateful Harriet. In time, however, it becomes clear that others are shocked by Harriet’s good luck, too. Shocked… and very, very unhappy.

Challenged in court by Elena’s family who live in Berlin, Harriet is forced to give up her inheritance and long-dreamed-of plans for a new business, and start her life again. But with her reputation in tatters and the memory of Elena tainted, Harriet knows a great injustice has been done.

Against the advice of her friends, family and lawyers, Harriet sets off on her own, very singular journey to Berlin.

In the weeks that follow she meets rich and poor, the glamorous and the criminal, the honest and the secretive, and begins to see that perhaps she has something to learn from them all. Something to learn about herself, and something to learn about her priorities.

She knows she has to fight for justice. But, when she meets the scholarly, perceptive Neil, who generously tries to help Harriet in her mission, but who is struggling with a complicated marriage, she must also decide if she’ll fight for love, too.

A Single Journey is a compelling and lively story, combining colourful characters with a page-turning plot and romantic highs and lows.

Fans of Jojo Moyes and Lucinda Riley will be hooked.

Maneuvering for Sunlight : Richard Karn

Maneuvering for Sunlight : Richard KarnManeuvering for Sunlight

A marauding bear sparks a midnight flashback to life on a cattle ranch in the summer of 1967.

12-year old Nicky Fischer’s idyllic life is shattered by the announcement his family would be moving to ‘the other side of the world.’ Realizing his family will be torn apart forever, Nicky embarks on a quest to earn $38.06 to buy a baseball glove for his older brother’s 18th birthday for him to take to college and to demonstrate his love and gratitude because ‘such things were shown, not told.’

Partly homage to a dying lifestyle and a time when things were not necessarily simpler or better but somehow clearer, Maneuvering for Sunlight is an adventure about a boy on the cusp of manhood wrestling with the meaning of love, friendship, responsibility, loss and change as he locks horns with the dilemma of having to do the wrong thing for the right reason.
