Elizabeth Kostova The Shadow Land

The new novel from the bestselling author of The Historian. Alexandra Boyd has travelled to Bulgaria hoping to salve the wounds left by the loss of her brother. However, a luggage mix-up finds her holding an urn filled with human ashes. Soon she comes to realise that this object is tied to the very darkest moments in the nation’s history, and that the stakes behind seeing it safely returned are higher than she could ever have imagined.

Alison Evans Ida

Ida is a few months out of high school and doesn’t know what to do with her life. This is exacerbated by the fact that she has the ability to live out the alternatives by travelling between parallel universes. This has never really been a problem until one day when she sees a shadowy doppelgänger of herself on the train.

Claire-Louise Bennett Pond

These 20 mostly interlinked stories are narrated by a nameless woman living in a small cottage in rural Ireland. The result is a picture of a young woman of uncommon intelligence who has left the world of jobs and adult responsibility in the hope of recovering some more enchanting relation of self to world. ‘… remarkable … dense with the sensuous texture of life’ – Sydney Morning Herald

Mick Herron Slow Horses

You don’t stop being a spook just because you’re no longer in the game … Banished to Slough House from the ranks of achievers at Regent’s Park for various crimes of drugs and drunkenness, lechery and failure, politics and betrayal, Jackson Lamb’s misfit crew don’t run ops, they push paper.But not one of them joined the Intelligence Service to be a ‘slow horse’. A boy is kidnapped and held hostage. His beheading is scheduled for live broadcast on the net. And whatever the instructions of the Service, the slow horses aren’t going to just sit quiet and watch . . .
