Moffat, a murderous and magniloquent criminal, is thriving in the underbelly of 19th-century London. When he unexpectedly inherits Gibbous House, an expansive estate in Northumbria, he heads north on a journey that raises questions about his own identity and quickly leads to issues of morality, addiction and murder. Gibbous House, Moffat discovers, already plays home to a motley cast of characters: the beautiful and seductive Ellen Pardoner, the conniving attaché Maccabi and the arrogant scientist Enoch—manager of the mansion’s esoteric ‘collection’. Moffat’s greed-fuelled pursuit of his inheritance takes him deep into a crazed, conspiratorial plot and a series of tense psychological showdowns. Gibbous House is a dark Victorian thriller told with fresh wit and brimming with historical detail. Filled with atmosphere and drama, it brings modern irony to the rich texture of the classic gothic novel.
Ghana has become increasingly popular as a holiday destination. This is unsurprising – it is one of the most politically stable, and safe, countries in Africa. But visiting for a fortnight, or even a month, barely allows a scratch of the surface of this vibrant nation. You can see some of the sights and sample the food, but you'll never get a real understanding of what makes the country tick. Having left his History classroom in Britain, Peet spent ten months of 2012 teaching in rural Ghana. In this thought-provoking book, he recounts some of the tales which shaped his stay in the house of the village chief and his family. Peet's often self-deprecating wit comes to the fore as he gets to grips with the rigour of the different classroom environment, fetching water, tro-tros and more. All this is set in time to the events which made the year one of national significance.
