Actually, I'm A Murderer [Hardcover]:
Four strangers on a train. An unlikely introduction:
'Actually, I'm a murderer.'
It is 1973 and the lives of four people are thrown into turmoil when sharing a carriage with an unremarkable little man with glasses, on the night train back to Newcastle.By the end of the following day, one of them will be dead, one will turn blackmailer and another forced to commit a crime. And all of them will be under the astute observation of Aline, the local police officer with her own agenda to fulfil.When the body count begins to rise, the question is: just how many murderers are out there... and who will be the next victim?
A History of Britain in Ten Enemies [Paperback]:
Ah, Britain. So special. The greatest nation on earth, some say. And we did it all on our own. Didn’t we…?
As it happens Britannia got its name from the Romans, and for the past two centuries we have been ruled by Germans. As Horrible Histories author Terry Deary argues, nations and their leaders are defined by the enemies they make. You might even say those enemies made Britain what it is today...
For instance, did you know:
· Elizabeth I would count as a minor royal without the Spanish Armada?
· Without the Nazis, Churchill would be remembered as an opposition windbag?
· And the surprisingly sadistic Boudica would be forgotten if it weren't for the Roman Ninth Legion?
After all, every nation sometimes needs a bit of unifying Blitz spirit, right? (although in an ideal world, we wouldn’t have accidentally let Corporal Hitler go in the first place).
