End Game
Some decisions can be the death of you. After ten years of a brutal apocalypse, Sarah Donovan doesn’t want much. Just a place where she can live where people aren’t trying to kill her. A place where she can raise her daughter and live without fear. Unfortunately, it's all a little more than any sane person should hope for. In the thrilling climax to the Irish End Games, Mike and Sarah launch into the unforgiving North Atlantic in a retrofitted tramp steamer with five pregnant women, eleven children and fifteen other desperate persons in the determined hope of finding that place. Will they find their haven? If they do what will they have to sacrifice to get there? End Game is a riveting thrill ride of action, revenge, and heart-stopping bravery in the final chapter of one American woman’s life-defining battle with the unthinkable.
Human Rights and the Northern Ireland Conflict
This interdisciplinary book explores the Northern Ireland conflict through a human rights framework. The book examines the conflict from the creation of the Northern Ireland state in 1921 to 2014.

This is Now
An ordinary day. An ordinary bank. An ordinary street in an ordinary town. Nothing ever happens, until, one day, a shocking robbery turns life upside down for five people: Cillian, a police detective, Martha, the woman he thought was the life of his life, Tobias, who came to Ireland after WWII and now lies in a coma, shot in the bank robbery, Roman, the young Polish teenager who is suspected of pulling the trigger and his mother Rosa, the cleaner, who dreamed of a better life for herself and her son . . . . . . and things will never be ordinary again. Ciara Geraghty's writing has that rare ability to make you laugh out loud as well as cry. She combines tangled human relationships with humour, romance and warmth to create something truly special.
Darius - a Vampire Story
John-Luke is a quiet intellectual who passed almost unnoticed through high school and college.

Becoming Scarlett
Meet Scarlett O’Hara. In her life, everything goes according to plan. Until now . . . Now, Scarlett is back in her childhood home with her plan in tatters and a baby on the way, while John Smith – actuary, proper grown-up and Scarlett’s boyfriend – has left her to join an archaeological dig in a tiny village somewhere in Brazil. But that’s not the worst bit. The worst bit is she can’t be sure who the father of the baby is . . . even though she’s slept with exactly four-and-a-half men in her entire 35 years. As a distraction, Scarlett throws herself into her job as a wedding planner, but even that’s not going smoothly. Because of her growing feelings for her most important client’s husband-to-be . . . In the end it’s the person she thought she knew best – herself – who surprises her the most. Join Scarlett as she tries, for the first time ever, to navigate life without a plan.
