Gerald Hennessey - silver screen star and much-loved heart-throb - never quite makes it to Temple Regis, the quaint seaside town on the English Riviera. Murdered on the 4.30 from Paddington, the loss of this great man throws Temple Regis's community into disarray. Not least Miss Judy Dimont - corkscrew-haired reporter for the local rag, the RIVIERA EXPRESS. Investigating Gerald's death, she's soon called to the scene of a second death, and, setting off on her moped, finds Arthur Shrimsley in an apparent suicide on the clifftops above the town beach. Miss Dimont must prevail - for why was a man like Gerald coming to Temple Regis anyway? What is the connection between him and Arthur? And just how will she get any answers whilst under the watchful and mocking eyes of her infamously cantankerous editor, Rudyard Rhys?

This is the story of the 1964 Declaration on the Jews, inspired by Jewish groups attempting to free themselves from the gospel charges of deicide; its passage, but the refusal by Pope Paul VI to accept and promulgate it. The reworked Declaration was passed by the Council and promulgated as the ""Schema on non-Christian Religions" in 1965. This is the enthralling account of the battles behind the scenes of the Council by various factions, for and against the Declaration, with the ultimate victory of traditional Christian doctrine, though it was a near run thing. "Judaism and the Vatican" has been retranslated and enlarged to bring it up to date including articles, and August 2018, statements by Pope Benedict XVI.

After rising to prominence for his role investigating the case of Jack the Ripper, former Detective Inspector Daniel Wilson is now retired. Known for his intelligence, investigative skills, and most of all his discretion, he's often consulted when a case must be solved quickly and quietly. So when a body is found in the Egyptian Collection of the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, Wilson is called in. As he tries to uncover the identity of the dead man and the circumstances surrounding his demise, Wilson must contend with an unhelpful police Inspector, and more alarmingly, Abigail McKenzie, the archaeologist who discovered the body and is determined to protect the Egyptian collection. Can they find a way to work together to solve the mystery?

The quirky and charming third crime novel from New York Times bestselling author Lynne Truss. In the wake of two extremely high-profile murder cases, and with the summer of 1957 finally winding down, Constable Twitten is eagerly anticipating a quiet spell at work. But his hoped-for rest is interrupted when he and his colleagues find a trio of bodies, all murdered with the same unusual weapon: a milk bottle. The three victims are seemingly unconnected-a hardworking patrolman, a would-be beauty queen, and a catty BBC radio personality-so Constable Twitten, Sergeant Brunswick, and Inspector Steine are baffled. But with Brighton on high alert and the local newspaper churning out stories of a killer on the loose, the police trio is determined to solve the case and catch the killer. Charming, witty, and full of the joyfully zany characters Truss's readers have come to love, Murder by Milk Bottle will delight old fans and new alike.
