Rose Lin Fairchild didn't believe in gods, but one chose her anyway. Rose despises Raven, the god of Death. His mysterious commands. His mercurial moods. His closed heart. But most of all, she loathes that she was forced to become his Harbinger, a human mercenary tasked to fulfill their god's every want and whim. Still, she would do it again, because being a Harbinger is the only thing keeping her best friend alive. When a murder rocks the world of the gods, Rose is suddenly thrust into the immortal realm's spotlight as Raven's heir. This is her chance to free her friend once and for all. But in order for her to ascend, she must first prove herself to the other gods-and the one person standing in her way is a fellow Harbinger. Étienne Beauchard is notorious for his sly wit and charming good looks. Rose can't stand that he is the one assigned to test her abilities, but as their initial hostility evolves into an intense attraction, they find that the gods' secrets go deeper than they ever expected. Something is wrong in the immortal world, something that threatens to break their bond and engulf them all in war. As Rose and Étienne fight to uncover the truth and trust each other with their hearts, they realize that everything hinges on the same question: How far would you go to save the person you love?

A BRAND NEW poignant and sweeping historical love story of courage, longing and impossible choices. Perfect for fans of Kate Quinn and Mandy Robotham! Through the trees in St James's Park she spotted the white facades of the Whitehall offices, and her stomach contracted. But it wasn't nerves. Fortitude, yes, and a kind of hell-bent willingness. An understanding of the importance of her work; to do something, however small, to help. A privilege. 1941: A world away from idyllic childhood summers spent in Devon, Cassie Marsh steps through the sandbagged entrance to the War Room, determined to do her part for the war effort. The air crackling with tension, the urgency of whispered conversations, the weight of secrets - nothing in her quiet upbringing has prepared her for this. Here, women like her are expected to work tirelessly, remain composed, even as their homes - and lives - are devastated by the Blitz. But Cassie's heart is already divided between love and duty. She dreams of rich summers at Greenaways from a lifetime ago, before her world was torn apart. She dreams of one person... the one she cannot - but must - forget. And as her family begs her to return to safety, to the soothing, reassuring walls of the country house, Cassie must decide where her heart really lies. In times of war, can you ever afford to question your loyalty? A evocative and beautifully written wartime story of love, duty and courage. Praise for Catherine Law: 'From the first line, dripping with poignancy, The Map Maker's Promise had me hooked. Catherine Law's beautifully written tale of one woman's life, intense pain, and deep regret will stay with me for as long as the mist hovers over the Scottish Highlands. A perfect book.' Rachel Sweasey 'I was completely enthralled. I could not put this beautifully written book down and read it in one glorious sitting. Such wonderful writing. Such a compelling and haunting story. And the descriptions! The settings come alive and I absolutely lived every scene.'

Reader Review 'the ending is a masterclass in great storytelling' Reader Review 'The Map Maker's Promise initially exhibits a lot of sadness and pain but it also evolves into a landscape of healing and hope.

I adored it' SOPHIE COUSENS 'A timeless tragedy, a story of the intricacies and illusions of true love' CHRIS WHITAKER 'I didn't want this book to end. 10/10' VOGUE WILLIAMS *Don't miss the intoxicating and compulsive debut novel from Hattie Williams - everyone's talking about it!* 'In my life, there are things that have happened to me, and things that I have done, that have proven to be moments that have a clear before and an after. One of those moments, perhaps in some ways the biggest, was the day that I met Richard Aveling for the first time.' Charlie is twenty-three, single and the new publicity assistant at the independent London publishing house Winden & Shane. Richard Aveling is fifty-six, married and the author that has defined his generation. Charlie has long idolised the charming, illustrious writer, who also represents a link to her late mother, who loved his work. But as they embark on an illicit and all-consuming affair, Charlie is forced to hide the relationship from everyone she cares about. And when the success of Richard's latest book launches him to a new level of fame where all anonymity is lost, she realises she might just be in too deep... A thought-provoking exploration of a relationship founded in power, control and silence, Bitter Sweet is perfect for book clubs and will appeal to fans of Sorrow and Bliss by Meg Mason and Cleopatra and Frankenstein by Coco Mellors. ** More praise for BITTER SWEET by Hattie Williams** 'Hattie's writing on early-20s friendships and their enmeshed intensity, was so convincing.
