Freedom Was in Sight

A Graphic History of Reconstruction in the Washington, D.C., Region

By: Kate Masur

The Reconstruction era was born from the tumult and violence of the Civil War and delivered the most powerful changes the United States had seen since its founding. Black Americans in Washington, D.C., and its surrounding region were at the heart of these transformations, bravely working to reunite their families, build their communities, and claim rights long denied them. Meanwhile, in the capital, government leaders struggled to reunite and remake the nation. Famous individuals such as Frederick Douglass and Ida B. Wells played central roles, as did lesser-known figures like Emma Brown, the first African American teacher in Washington's public schools, and lawyer-journalist William Calvin Chase, longtime editor of the Washington Bee. Freedom Was in Sight! draws on the words and experiences of people who lived during Reconstruction, powerfully narrating how the impacts of emancipation and civil war rippled outward for decades. Vividly drawn by award-winning graphic artist Liz Clarke and written by Pulitzer Prize–finalist Kate Masur, a leading historian of Reconstruction, this rich graphic history reveals the hopes and betrayals of a critical period in American history.

Stay Buried

A twisty and atmospheric crime novel to keep you up at night

By: Kate Webb

Your next must-read' LUCY FOLEY 'Absolutely brilliant plotting' ANN CLEEVES The darkest truths should never surface . . . DI Matt Lockyer has been side-lined to working cold cases, following a bad decision he made in a recent investigation. Lockyer isn't too bothered though, as it gives him the chance to look into his own brother's senseless killing which still remains unsolved. On a quiet afternoon Lockyer receives a phone call from prisoner Hedy Lambert - a woman he put inside for murder fourteen years ago. She informs him that the man she was originally accused of killing has turned up alive and well. She begs him to reopen her case. All those years ago, Lockyer had been the one to pin down Hedy's motive, but deep down he'd never wanted to believe she was guilty. The thought that he might have sent an innocent woman to prison disturbs him, so Lockyer agrees to investigate. But has it become too personal and is he being manipulated? Perhaps there are some cases that should just stay buried. ******************************* *Praise for Stay Buried* 'Gloriously atmospheric' ELLY GRIFFITHS 'The twists were terrific' GYTHA LODGE 'A well-written deftly plotted whodunnit' GUARDIAN 'Remarkably assured' LITERARY REVIEW 'Accomplished, twisty' WOMAN AND HOME *Readers are loving Stay Buried* 'Held my interest right to the very last plot twist - and what a twist!' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'I can't wait for the next instalment' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Loved this book, was gripped from the start and couldn't put it down' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Great plot and fabulous characters' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

As the Civil Rights Movement began to emerge during the 1950s, she was struggling to make a living with her husband on lands that her forebears had cleared, ploughed, and harvested for generations. When a white doctor sterilized her withouther permission in 1961, Hamer took her destiny into her own hands.Bestselling biographer Kate Clifford Larson offers the first account of Hamer's life for a general audience, capturing and illuminating what made Hamer the electrifying force that she became when she walked onto stages across the country during the 1960s and until her death in 1977.

Based on new sources, including recently opened FBI files and Oval Office transcripts, the biography features interviews with some of the people closest to Hamer and conversations with Civil Rights leaders who fought alongside her.Larson's biography will become the standard account of an extraordinary life.

Keep Walking Rhona Beech

the funniest, most moving journey of self-discovery after everything falls apart

By: Kate Tough

Incredibly insightful, funny and poignant' Helen Sedgwick 'A warm and ferociously witty story. Truth rings from every page of this assured, engrossing debut' Zoe Strachan When Rhona's story comes to an end you will miss her. Her candid, raw, messy journey will make you laugh, cry and remember. Not a typical break-up book, it's much more profound. Nothing has turned out quite how Rhona imagined: she's been casually swapping one job for another while getting comfy in a long relationship which ends abruptly, and her efforts to adjust to that change are thrown by some unwelcome news... Flawed, relatable Rhona Beech narrates this beautifully written, pacey satire about female friendship, heartbreak, career change, conceiving and illness, which will appeal to fans of Fleabag. Join her on a laugh (and cry) out loud search for meaning amongst the bars, offices and clinics of Glasgow. Will her friendships survive the changes and challenges? Will SHE survive? At once funny and tender, Keep Walking, Rhona Beech is a clear-sighted look at a generation of women that was told they could have it all.

Written in the Stars

By: Morgan Kate

There are only three things in the universe that stars can’t manipulate: life, death, and love. This, of course, doesn’t stop anyone from wishing for these things. These are the wishes that stars will dread hearing their whole existence. So when Calista is pulled from the sky with a wish for true love, her world shatters. Without her alpha star to guide her and her smaller stars to encourage her, Calista feels lost and hopeless when faced with the impossible task set before her. Hidden in the folds of the sleepy town of Shelter Cove, she finds Jack, who makes the best coffee she’s ever had; Lily, who has a smile like sunshine and a heart to match; Grey, who hides behind his music and a charming smile; and Nate and Savanah, who love each other and their friends fiercely. Each one reminds her that humans are just as beautifully unique as the stars. But will making friends help her find true love for a human she doesn’t know? Or will she be forced to face her own fears and feelings about the reality that she may never make it back to the only home she’s ever known?

Tales of Beauty and Cruelty

By: Kate Petty,Caroline Castle

2005 is the bicentenary of Hans Christian Andersen's birth. His stories have timeless themes - love, death, coming to terms with all that life offers. This collection of ten stories weaves those essential themes of beauty and cruelty into contemporary takes on life. "The Steadfast Tin Solder" becomes "The Flames of Love", "The Ugly Duckling" is retold as "Swan" and "The Emperor's New Clothes", retold as "The King of Cool", has new relevance as the story of a boy obsessed with branded clothing. All are memorable for the shock value of many of Andersen's most painful images: the shards of a broken mirror; the piercing of a broken heart. "The Swineherd" ("Princess), "The Snow Queen" ("The Shattered Mirror"), "The Wild Swans"("The Wild Swanns"), "The Princess and the Pea" ("Mother Knows Best"), "The Little Match Girl" ("A Little Flame"), "The Ugly Duckling" ("Swan) and "The Little Mermaid" ("Coming Up for Air") are all also recast for the 21st century.

One-Horn’s daughter is not like the others of her kind. Born of a human father, she lacks the horns so prized by her people and is scorned even by her own mother. Her only chance for escape is to capture one of the legendary flying horses and ride it to freedom. So this strange, feral girl begins a dangerous journey of love, death, and betrayal that will earn her a new name: Rhiannon, the rider no one can catch. Rescued and taken to the home of Lewen, a young man just beginning to understand his own magical potential, Rhiannon is fascinated by the human world and by Lewen. Together they travel through a land where the dead walk and ghosts haunt the living, a place where Rhiannon encounters dark forces that endanger all of Eileanan. But to save the land, she must convince Lewen and the other apprentice-witches to trust the word of a wild half-human girl.

The Hummingbird Effect

By: Kate Mildenhall

An epic, kaleidoscopic story of four women connected across time and place by an invisible thread and their determination to shape their own stories, from the acclaimed author of The Mother Fault. Shortlisted for the ABIA Literary Fiction Book of the Year 2024 Longlisted for the Stella Prize and Indie Book Awards 2024 Sydney Morning Herald Best Reads of the Year for 2023 One of the lucky few with a job during the Depression, Peggy’s just starting out in life. She’s a bagging girl at the Angliss meatworks in Footscray, a place buzzing with life as well as death, where the gun slaughterman Jack has caught her eye – and she his. How is her life connected to Hilda’s, almost a hundred years later, locked inside during a plague, or La’s, further on again, a singer working shifts in a warehouse as her eggs are frozen and her voice is used by AI bots? Let alone Maz, far removed in time, diving for remnants of a past that must be destroyed? Is it by the river that runs through their stories, eternal yet constantly changing – or by the mysterious Hummingbird Project, and the great question of whether the march of progress can ever be reversed? Propulsive, tender and engrossing, this genre-bending novel is a feast for the heart as well as the mind and senses. For fans of David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas, Michelle de Kretser’s The Life to Come and Jennifer Egan’s The Candy House, it confirms Mildenhall as one of the most ambitious and dynamic writers in the country. 'Kate Mildenhall is such an exciting writer to read … This generous, playful novel speaks to themes of climate change, survival and holding space for each other, as well as the enduring power of female friendship.' The Guardian ‘Spellbinding, genre-defying, and powerful in its vision of the future … The Hummingbird Effect is a devastating novel that exposes the ways the future is seeded in the past.’ Australian Book Review
