Palm Meridian
£10.99It’s 2067 at Palm Meridian Retirement Resort, Florida, and the last day of Hannah’s life. Tomorrow, as the sun burns the dew off the lawns, she’ll close her eyes for the very last time. But she won’t be going quietly. Tonight, Hannah’s throwing an end-of-life party: the drinks are on ice, and the palm trees are strung with lights beneath technicolour skies. And though Hannah has less than 24 hours left, she’s holding out for one last, impossible thing. Amongst the guest list is Hannah’s long-lost love Sophie – the woman who Hannah can’t forget, even after 40 years. Hannah has to give her greatest love one last try. Soon, the party is in full swing. Hannah waits nervously, unaware that before her last ever dawn breaks, a devastating secret will come to light. If Sophie shows, how can Hannah say goodbye all over again? And is there enough time to fix the past?

A Sense of Occasion
£16.99Mary’s death is bad news – for her daughter Patch, ex-partner Robin, and niece Jude. It will mean a funeral. But Patch can barely keep track of her mother’s journey from the hospital to the mortuary, let alone host a wake in her childhood home. Robin wants to support her, but instead of assuming the role of responsible father, he heads to his former haunt: the lay-by where he used to meet farmers for sex. Jude’s on her way from Naples, worrying less about Patch, her estranged cousin, and more about whether there’s a medicinal bag of cocaine in the boot. She hasn’t told the family she’s en route. This way, any lingering acrimony will be forgotten, and Jude’s past behaviour will be forgiven. Thrown together in Mary’s tiny house, each of them is trying to feel something: to grieve, atone, join in, be better.

I Gave You Eyes and You Looked Toward Darkness
£9.99Nestled among rugged mountains, in a remote part of Catalonia frequented by wolf hunters, bandits, witches, deserters, ghosts, beasts and demons, sits the old farmhouse called Mas Clavell. Inside, an impossibly old woman lies on her deathbed while family and caretakers drift in and out. All the women who have ever lived and died in that house are waiting for her to join them. They are preparing to throw her a party. As day turns to night, four hundred years’ worth of memories unspool, and the house reverberates with the women’s stories. Stories of mysterious visions, of those born without eyelashes and tongues or with deformed hearts. But it begins with the story of the matriarch Blanca who double-crosses the devil, heedless of what the consequences might be.

The Expansion Project
£9.99Plans for the expansion of the Capmeadow Business Park are in full swing. Tom Crowley, a mid-level employee, loses his daughter at ‘bring your daughter to work day’. He raises the alarm, and his colleagues rush to help him find her. Eventually, after no sign of her is found, it transpires she was never there. And yet, as time goes on, Tom still can’t reconcile that she is really at home. Refusing to accept that she is safe, Tom continues to search for her in the maze of corridors and impossible multi-dimensional spaces that make up his place of work. Because Capmeadow is expanding in unexpected ways, a Liaison Officer becomes the central focus for complaints about how the expansion is impacting the lives of the employees – unexpected buildings, years-long business days, cursed farmers’ markets, and corridors of the mind are draining the life from Tom and everyone he works with.
