From 'a master crime writer' (Financial Times), a chilling story where Japanese tradition and Western crime collide – now available in English for the first timeMusashino, 1959. A young Japanese flight attendant is found strangled on the icy banks of the river. The police suspect foul play – but the deeper they dig, the more they collide with a wall of silence.At the centre of it all stands a foreign priest and the Guglielmo Church, a charitable Christian mission. The dead woman’s connection to the church is undeniable. But what begins as a routine investigation quickly turns into something far more treacherous, entangling together narcotics, post-war relief schemes and the delicate web of international diplomacy.As the story moves from back alleys to diplomatic sanctuaries, following the twists and turns of Detective Fujisawa's investigation, Seicho Matsumoto masterfully constructs a slow-burning procedural where truth is clear but justice is not permitted.Translated from Japanese by

From the earliest green shoots to dense tropical forests, discover how plants spread across the world to build our environment.Plants first emerged on a very different looking Earth 500 million years ago. As land masses moved, plants were brought together in fierce competition with one another, or separated to continue their lives in very different conditions.

The fourth laugh-out-loud full colour story starring Nina Peanut - amazing frozen-pizza chef, ghost hunter, mystery solver, jet-setter, creative genius. The funniest new friend for all kids, everywhere. I'm Nina Peanut and I CANNOT believe Mum is making me show the new boy at school around town.Ethan shoved an ice cream in my face when we were four years old - annoying! But wait... he's older now and... quite cool.Wears a leather jacket. Into skating. The best looking boy who-is-not-in-a-boyband I've ever seen.Why have I gone bright red? We're putting on some random play - Romeo and Juliet? I don't expect you've heard of it - at the end of term and I want the starring role opposite Ethan. But of course my arch-enemy Megan BUMFACE is also set on the part: the race to be the ultimate drama queen is ON! Hilariously funny, with themes of friendship/frenemies, big dreams, brilliant pets: hours and hours of reading fun guaranteed for kids. Warm, offbeat wit and gorgeous, bright full colour p
