The Anger Beneath
When a body turns up in mysterious circumstances, in the Scottish Highlands, there are very few clues to the identity of the deceased man: blue overalls and a numbered tattoo on his ankle. Shortly afterwards, another body turns up in the West Country, once again in unexplained circumstances. The dead man was wearing blue overalls and had a numbered tattoo on his ankle. When further violent incidents occur, in a range of locations across the country, Scotland Yard realise they are dealing with a dangerous criminal organisation. The roots of the organisation go back to the 1950s when it was a benign group of peace protesters. But over the years, something has gone horribly wrong.

With the possibility of being captured by the American FBI. And being hanged. Meet The Unwilling Spy.

Raging against this fated sadness—and often against a deadening and inescapable status quo—the characters in Ruffin's newest collection, Jesus in the Mist, populate an imaginative vision of the hardscrabble Deep South where history, culture, and expectations are set firmly against them. Like Flannery O'Connor before him, Ruffin views the South as dark with humor a...

The Reckoning
A brilliant mix of detective story, history and biography. In 1593, the controversial young playwright Christopher Marlowe was stabbed to death in a Deptford lodging house and the official account -- a violent quarrel over the bill -- has long been regarded as dubious.
