In a world built on trust, the most dangerous crimes are hidden in plain sight. And this one is far worse than anyone imagined. Ex-DCI Luke Sackville and his Ethics Team investigate three cases that appear to be routine and unrelated: a police officer abusing his position; financial irregularities at a pharmaceutical company; a vehicle manufacturer using substandard components. What Luke doesn’t expect is a trail of lies and intimidation. He finds records that look too clean, witnesses who suddenly fall silent, and leads that come back to the same powerful names.

GeorgetteThey say the world will burn in fourteen days. I refuse to let the man I love burn with it. Osiris came to me with the warning. Mortals. Gods. Every realm we have bled for, everyone we have loved. Gone. Unless we do the unthinkable. Unless we break the chains that hold the Titans. I stand on the deck of my ship, salt wind in my hair, shadows rolling across the waves. At my side is the man I was kidnapped for. The man I ran from. The man I married. The man I would tear destiny apart to keep. Captain Mannington Stone. My husband. My storm. My impossible love.

A gloriously absurd tennis comedy of delusion, desire and one man’s unstoppable sense of his own greatness. The third in the “Confessions” series, Les Conquêtes Normandes d'un Tennisman Vieillissant (The Norman Conquests of an Ageing Tennis Player) picks up where ‘The Courting Lives’ left off and tracks Andy’s inexorable rise to become the greatest GOAT: or ‘Greatest of All Time’ as they have it in contemporary tennis parlance, by challenging for the French Grand Slam at Roland Garros.

By turns hilarious, unsettling, and unexpectedly tender, this final volume of the Tennis Player Confessions series that began at the Wimbledon tournament comes finally to Flushing Meadows, where the last match is played not with a racket, but with the truth. Written largely as a stage-script, the text shifts into meta-cinema, opening with a drone shot sweeping from the River Mersey to a hospice ward. As reality blurs into dreams, surveillance drones hum through the corridors and Andy is forced to confront what age means in a world that so easily discards its heroes.

Lord Andrew believes that he has won the vote for the club chairmanship: his time has come, his victory is total. But not complete. What's the next challenge for the tennis player who's just won Wimbledon? To win the Australian Open in Oz of course, so our hero bids farewell to his beloved tennis club and sets off on his journey to Melbourne (known in the 'real' world as HM Prison North Sea Camp in Lincolnshire where our hero is serving out his sentence for arson having set fire to the tennis club's racquets.)
