Invasion
June 2019: The minutes tick away toward six pm. As commuters stream out of central London a truck idles by the pavement in Whitehall, its cargo bay packed with powerful explosives. Chaos is about to begin. The face of Europe is about to change, moulded by a series of events that will have global repercussions far into the future.
The Horse at the Gates
British Prime Minister Gabriel Bryce lies injured in hospital, a survivor of the Whitehall bomb that has killed most of his Cabinet and thrown the country into chaos. Elsewhere, another explosion destroys Britain’s biggest mosque, slaughtering hundreds. Framed for the atrocity, Afghan veteran Danny Whelan goes on the run, now Europe’s most wanted man. The plot is underway, the target Britain itself. As the dead are buried and a new government takes power, Bryce and Whelan realise they are pawns in a vast conspiracy, one designed to crush a rebellious Britain and throw open the gates of Europe. To survive the coup, Bryce and Whelan must stay one step ahead of their enemies, led by a ruthless British politician determined to see them both dead… And Britain transformed for all time.
Failure to Adjust
*Updated edition with a new foreword on the Trump administration's trade policy* The vast benefits promised by the supporters of globalization, and by their own government, have never materialized for many Americans. In Failure to Adjust Edward Alden provides a compelling history of the last four decades of US economic and trade policies that have left too many Americans unable to adapt to or compete in the current global marketplace. He tells the story of what went wrong and how to correct the course. Originally published on the eve of the 2016 presidential election, Alden’s book captured the zeitgeist that would propel Donald J. Trump to the presidency. In a new introduction to the paperback edition, Alden addresses the economic challenges now facing the Trump administration, and warns that economic disruption will continue to be among the most pressing issues facing the United States. If the failure to adjust continues, Alden predicts, the political disruptions of the future will be larger still.
South Africa–China Relations
With the pace of trade and investment picking up, coupled with closer international cooperation with Beijing through the G20, FOCAC and BRICS grouping, South Africa-China ties are assuming a significant position in continental and even global affairs. At the same time, it is a relationship of paradoxes, breaking with many of the assumptions that underpin contemporary analyses of ‘China-Africa’ ties. This edited volume examines the South Africa-China relationship through a survey of its diplomatic partnership, economic ties, and broader community relations. These important aspects that are often conflated as a single relationship, yet what is important to explore are how these components reflect different China-South Africa relationship(s), and how they intersect.

Over My Dead Body (William Warwick Novels)
An unputdownable story of murder, revenge and betrayal from international number one bestseller Jeffrey Archer.

As night falls across the besieged city, Harry and his SAS protection team must escape before they are captured and killed.
