Summer has come to the Lake District town of Windermere, where Persimmon 'Simmy' Brown runs her own florist shop. But with the shop struggling for money, a contract to provide floral displays for a hotel in Hawkshead couldn't be more welcome. However, Simmy's association with the hotel soon turns sinister when she finds a body in the lake.
To make matters worse, her friend, Ben .
With many suspicious characters bustling in and out of the hotel, while simultaneously trying to cope with her father's encroaching dementia, solving the puzzle seems a gruelling challenge, but Simmy is compelled to uncover the truth . . .

Long ago, Andrew made a childhood wish, and kept it in a silver box. When it finally comes true, he wishes it hadn't. Long ago, Ben made a promise and he had a dream: to travel to Africa to volunteer at a lion reserve. When he finally makes it, it isn't for the reasons he imagined. Ben and Andrew keep meeting in unexpected places, and the intense relationship that develops seems to be guided by fate. Or is it? What if the very thing that draws them together is tainted by past secrets that threaten everything? A dark, consuming drama that shifts from Zimbabwe to England, and then back into the past, The Lion Tamer Who Lost is also a devastatingly beautiful love story, with a tragic heart.
Review
"A stirring novel, beautifully written, reminiscent of the early work of Maggie O'Farrell." -Irish Times
"Quirky, darkly comic, heartfelt and original." -Sunday Mirror

Benjamin Netanyahu is one of the longest serving Prime Ministers of Israel. For much of the world, Netanyahu is a right-wing nationalist zealot; for many Israelis he is a centrist who is too soft on Arabs and backs down too easily in a fight. Love him or loathe him, Netanyahu has been at the very center of Arab-Israeli politics since 1990, when he became the telegenic Israeli spokesman for CNN's coverage of the Persian Gulf War, arguably ushering in the Americanization of the Israeli media. Netanyahu is famous for his TV skills, but there is so much more to reveal—good and bad—about the man and his place in Israeli, Middle Eastern and world political history.
At present there is no major profile of Netanyahu in the English language, so the publication of this book is a landmark of considerable importance, especially as in March 2015 he was re-elected for a further term in office. Using the juncture of the Oslo Accords to take the reader back to Netanyahu's...

I was standing on one leg shucking oysters when the problems began.
Don Tillman and Rosie Jarman are about to face their most important challenge.
Their ten-year-old son, Hudson, is struggling at school: he's socially awkward and not fitting in. Don's spent a lifetime trying to fit in-so who better to teach Hudson the skills he needs?
The Hudson Project will require the help of friends old and new, force Don to decide how much to guide Hudson and how much to let him be himself, and raise some significant questions about Don's own identity.
Meanwhile, there are multiple distractions to deal with: the Genetics Lecture Outrage, Rosie's troubles at work, estrangement from his best friend Gene.
And opening the world's best cocktail bar.
Hilarious and thought-provoking, with a brilliant cast of characters, The Rosie Result is the triumphant final instalment of the much-loved and internationally bestselling Don Tillman trilogy.
Graeme Simsion is a Melbourne-based novelist and screenwriter. The Rosie Project and The Rosie Effect have combined global sales approaching five million copies. Graeme is also the author of the international bestsellers The Best of Adam Sharp and - co-written with his wife, Anne Buist - Two Steps Forward. His screenplay for The Rosie Project is in development with Sony Pictures, The Best of Adam Sharp is in development with Toni Collette's Vocab Films, and the rights to Two Steps Forward have been optioned by Fox Searchlight and Ellen DeGeneres. Graeme's latest book is the third and final Don Tillman novel, The Rosie Result.
"Bursting with warmth, emotional depth, and.humor," Entertainment Weekly
"Don Tillman helps us believe in possibility, makes us proud to be human beings, and the bonus is this: he keeps us laughing like hell" Matthew Quick, author of *The Silver Linings Playbook*.
"A heartwarming story of an extraordinary man learning to live in an ordinary world.'" USA Today
"Sharp dialogue, terrific pacing, physical hijinks, slapstick, a couple to root for, and more twists than a pack of Twizzlers." NPR.org
"Filled with humor and plenty of heart... a delightful reminder that all of us, no matter how we're wired, just want to fit in." Chicago Tribune
"One of the year's most promising and original novelists." Wall Street Journal

Review
'[Don Tillman] has almost transcended the boundaries of fiction to become a geek icon.'―The Guardian 'One of the most endearing, charming and fascinating literary characters I have met in a long time.'―The Times THE ROSIE PROJECT 'Sometimes you just need a smart love story that will make anyone, man or woman, laugh out loud.'―San Francisco Chronicle 'Move over, Sheldon Cooper. There's a new brilliant, socially inept scientist poised to win over a huge audience, and his name is Don Tillman.'―Entertainment Weekly 'Simsion's attention to detail brings to life Don's wonderful, weird world. Instead of using Don's Asperger's syndrome as a fault, or a lead-in to a tragic turn of events, Simsion creates a heartwarming story of an extraordinary man learning to live in an ordinary world, and to love. As Don would say, this book is 'great fun.''―USA Today 'An utterly winning screwball comedy. . . This charming, warmhearted escapade, which celebrates the havoc―and pleasure―emotions can unleash, offers amusement aplenty. Sharp dialogue, terrific pacing, physical hijinks, slapstick, a couple to root for, and more twists than a pack of Twizzlers.'―NPR.org 'Filled with humor and plenty of heart, The Rosie Project is a delightful reminder that all of us, no matter how we're wired, just want to fit in.'―Chicago Tribune 'One of the year's most promising and original novelists.'―The Wall Street Journal 'A highfunctioning but emotionally illiterate guy like Don makes a perfect unreliable narrator. . . . Happily, Simsion doesn't give Don an unbelievable emotional makeover. Our man just learns to live by a more complicated algorithm.'―Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel 'Funny, touching, and hard to put down, The Rosie Project is certain to entertain even as readers delve into deep themes. . . immensely enjoyable.'―Booklist (starred review) 'Read-out-loud laughter begins by page two in Simsion's debut novel about a thirty-nine-year-old genetics professor with Asperger's―but utterly unaware of it―looking to solve his Wife Problem. . . . What follows are his utterly clueless but more often thoroughly charming exploits in exploring his capacity for romance. . . . This novel is perfectly timed.'―Publishers Weekly (starred review) THE ROSIE EFFECT 'In his bestselling debut, The Rosie Project, Simsion introduced the delightfully original character of Don Tillman, an Australian geneticist with Asperger's syndrome who sets out to find the perfect wife by using the scientific method. In the sequel, set in New York, Don takes on impending fatherhood in the same clumsy yet endearing way, with results both funny and moving. This charming new chapter in the Tillman chronicles leaves you hoping it won't be the last.'―People 'Though painfully aware of his emotional shortcomings, Don determinedly sets out to be a good dad. Hilarity ensues.Simsion's tale offers a playful look at a how a family of two fare when a third.enters the mix...There's a moral to this quirky story: The best things in life can't be planned on a spreadsheet.'―Good Housekeeping 'Loveable science prof Don Tillman's perfect (-ly concocted) marriage is about to hit a major bump.'―Cosmopolitan 'The hilarious follow-up to The Rosie Project, one of the best novels I've read in ages....Simsion brings back some of the best characters and gags from the first novel while also bringing in enough new elements to keep it fresh. It's a funny novel that also made me think about relationships: what makes them work and how we have to keep investing time and energy to make them better. A sweet, entertaining, and thought-provoking book.'―Bill Gates, "Top Five Books of 2014" "Don and Rosie are back!...Readers who loved the first book are in for another treat." ―Library Journal (starred review) 'A celebration of the best attributes to be found in a friend, a husband, or a father, regardless of the way they are expressed..―Booklist (starred review) 'Just as smart, funny and heartwarming as the original.'―Washington Post

'All mountaineers develop differently. Some go higher, some try ever-steeper faces and others specialise in a particular range or region. I am increasingly drawn to remoteness – to places where few others have trod.' The Wild Within is the third book from Simon Yates, one of Britain's most accomplished and daring mountaineers. With his insatiable appetite for adventure and exploratory mountaineering, Yates leads unique expeditions to unclimbed peaks in the Cordillera Darwin in Tierra del Fuego, the Wrangell St-Elias ranges on the Alaskan-Yukon border, and Eastern Greenland. Laced with dry humour, he relates his own experience of the rapid commercialisation of mountain wilderness, while grappling with his new-found commitments as a family man. At the same time he must endure his role in the film adaptation of Joe Simpson's Touching The Void, having to relive the events of that trip to Peru for an award winning director. Yates’ subsequent escape to the some of...
