1947. England is deep in the coldest winter anyone can remember. It snows every day, temperatures do not rise above freezing for seven weeks, coal cannot get from the pitheads to the power stations, food and fuel are in desperately short supply. More than that, the country's secret services have been penetrated, which means Britain is more vulnerable than ever. And Stalin knows it. He decides it is time to send his master of 'Special Tasks' to create a little extra chaos. But he has a more important motive than mere disruption. There is a man named Klaus Fuchs who must be protected at all costs because he is a communist super-spy and has the secrets of the atomic bomb at his fingertips. And there is another who must be found and killed because of the threat he poses to Fuchs. Freya Bentall, a senior MI5 officer, understands the danger but knows that the security service has been compromised and no longer knows who to trust. She has to bring in an outsider whose loyalty is beyond question - Tom Wilde. His task: to find the traitor in MI5 and protect his adopted country. Information from a foreign source suggests there is a double agent with a link to Cambridge University. Freya Bentall has three main suspects and Wilde must get close to them all. That means delving deep into the criminal underworld, attaching himself to the cultural elite of the arts and finding a way into the extreme reaches of British politics. As violence erupts, Wilde faces an uphill battle to protect those he loves from merciless killers. From the devastating nuclear bomb tests at Bikini atoll to a remote safe house in rural Norfolk, Wilde knows that one slip will spell disaster for both his family and the country.

Can he find a way to teach them the one lesson they really need to know: how to survive?Assiduously researched and drawn from archives and survivor testimonies, historian and biographer Wendy Holden tells the inspirational and uplifting true story of Fredy Hirsch: The Teacher of Auschwitz.

'Buy this book' - Lemn Sissay, author of My Name is Why'A book of profound importance' - Lisa Damour, author of UntangledIn recent years the word 'trauma' has become ubiquitous. Yet it remains widely misunderstood. In Trauma Proof international expert Benjamin Perks redefines how we see childhood trauma, and outlines a new path towards healing and prevention. For 25 years, Perks has worked for the UN and UNICEF on eradicating global barriers to child wellbeing, including poverty, hunger, disease, the mobilisation of child soldiers and population displacement. But he has also been on a personal journey of healing from his own childhood, spent living in the UK's care system and on the streets. Today, new research is revealing little-known aspects of childhood trauma. It is no surprise that it drives addiction or poor mental health. But how does it explain a heightened risk for heart disease or diabetes? Why does it so comprehensively correlate with poor life outcomes? And how can we not only heal from, but prevent, the types of experiences that negatively impact on child development?In Trauma Proof, Perks explains the science behind these findings, and argues that making simple changes can break damaging inter-generational cycles. Ultimately, he shows how building secure attachments and improving the quality of your relationships can radically transform your life, at any age.
