      Climb into the mind of teenager Edmund Carson and live through the horror and suffering he single-handedly creates. Following his self-righteous demand for recognition, you hurtle towards a terrifying climax that will leave you stone cold. Brimming with hatred, venom and contempt, Edmund finds a way of exorcising these emotions in the most destructive way possible. Once he has acquired the taste for blood, it is not so easy to stop and as he turns seventeen, the urge returns and Edmund craves more attention and admiration from the world for his work. This insatiable desire for fame can only mean that things must get bigger and better, leading Edmund to cut loose again, with each act building upon the last until he reaches the horrifying grand finale.

      Inside Edmund Carson
    • In this whimsical children's story, a variety of woodland animals, including a bear, fox, eagle, and snake, are on the hunt for dinner. Their adventure takes an unexpected turn as they follow a small mouse, who seeks friendship rather than food. Told in charming rhyme, the narrative explores themes of cooperation and bravery, posing the question of who truly is the cleverest in the forest. Will the animals find their meal, or will the little mouse prove to be the most resourceful of them all?

      What caused Jack Quaid to slowly drive away the love of his life? What made him arrive home late one night, sit in front of a camera pouring out his soul, before taking a shotgun and ending his life? When Detective Alex Keaton arrives at the scene, it has all the signs of a straightforward suicide. Alex is struggling with her own demons following her partner's violent death some months earlier, but when Jack's suicide brings up some strange questions, the tenacious, no-nonsense cop she once was starts to show itself again. Why did Jack feel responsible for a murder he had nothing to do with? Why has he been flying around the world? Why has he filled books with elaborate conspiracy theories? As Alex digs deeper, it appears Jack may have uncovered a terrible secret, one that could impact on Alex personally.

      Edmund Carson - The ONE. The Only.
    • The death sentence has returned to the UK. The cost of housing killers during their life time has become far too costly for the government. Only one place was willing to house the final prison the murderers will ever attend. Callington Island is what many would consider the ideal place to settle down for a quiet life. Away from the hustle and bustle of modern city life. A place where everyone knows everyone. That was, until Sister Trinity is found murdered. Everyone naturally assumes this must be the work of an escaped prisoner as no islander would surely be capable of such a heinous crime. Father Matthew, the island's priest and every islander's go-to in times of need, decides to give Nigel, the likeable but inept island bobby, a helping hand to solve the case. As the mystery unravels, there is a dawning realisation that this island, and its inhabitants, aren't quite what they seem.
