Hark! A Vagrant
Since Kate Beaton appeared on the comics scene in 2007 her cartoons have become fan favourites and gathered an enormous following, appearing in the New Yorker, Harper and the LA Times, to name but a few. Her website, Hark! A Vagrant, receives an average of 1.2 million hits a month, 500 thousand of them unique. Why? Because she's not just making silly jokes.

The Lies We Tell
In this psychological thriller debut, a privileged woman’s perfect life begins to unravel when an estranged childhood friend reappears in her life. The last time Katy saw Jude was on a school trip, when Jude was attacked by a stranger and Katy ran away. Twenty-five years later, Jude is back, and her reappearance coincides with a series of unsettling incidents: a stranger appears in the downstairs flat; Katy’s house is vandalized; her mother is mugged and her home ransacked. And Jude seems to know an uncomfortable amount about Katy’s current life . . . Forced to revisit the same rocky waters of friendship and power they inhabited when they were fifteen, Jude and Katy realize that when it comes to memory, truth, and family—nothing and no one are what they seem. Praise for The Lies We Tell “The Lies We Tell has a sense of tension and skewed reality from page one. Delightfully creepy and skillfully plotted. . . . It’s a can’t-wait-to-get-back-to-it book and I thoroughly enjoyed it.” —Hilary Boyd, author of Thursdays in the Park “An intriguing story full of slow-burning suspense.” —Sophie McKenzie, author of Close My Eyes and Here We Lie
