"London, 1941. The city is in blackout, besieged by nightly air raids from Germany. Two strangers are about to meet. Between them they may alter the course of the war. Although the Blitz has united the nation, there is an enemy hiding in plain sight. A group of British citizens is gathering secret information to aid Hitler's war machine. At the heart of this treachery is Jack Hoste, who also has a personal mission: to locate and recruit the most dangerous Nazi agent in the country, Marita Pardoe. Hoste soon receives a promising lead. Amy Strallen, who works in a Mayfair marriage bureau, was once close to Marita. Her life is a world away from the machinations of Nazi sympathisers, but when Hoste pays a visit to Amy's office, everything changes in a heartbeat. Breathtakingly tense and trip-wired with surprises, Our Friends in Berlin is inspired by true events. It is a story about deception and loyalty - and about people in love who watch each other as closely as spies." -- Provided by publisher.

In the summer of 1911, London buzzes with excitement for a new king's coronation and the fervent cries of suffragists demanding the vote. Among them is Connie Callaway, a twenty-one-year-old from a middle-class family struggling after her father's death. Having abandoned her medical aspirations, Connie faces a difficult decision: to protest peacefully against a stubborn government or to join the militant suffragettes in their fight for equality. While on holiday with her family, she meets Will Maitland, a promising cricketer. Their initial attraction is marred by disagreements—Connie is disillusioned by his chauvinism, while Will is taken aback by her boldness. Fate reunites them, intertwining their lives with Will's friend, Andrew Tamburlain, a former cricket star. Duty looms large in their lives, as their love, in another time, might have led to marriage. However, Connie yearns for independence beyond traditional roles, while Will grapples with his feelings for her. As war looms, their paths diverge, yet their connection remains. This narrative weaves together national drama and personal tragedy, exploring the complexities of love, sacrifice, and the fight for suffrage amidst the backdrop of a tumultuous era in England.

In early March 2020 Liverpool were two wins away from an extraordinary achievement, on course for their first league title win in 30 years - since the heads days of Kenny Dalgliesh - and likely to seal it in the Liverpool derby against their great rivals Everton. And all this an incredible two months before the season was due to end. Then, as we all know, the season was postponed. What will happen next, we don't know, for now, but the architect of the club's great resurgence - including their 2019 Uefa Champions League win - has been Jurgen Klopp. In his personal love-letter to the man, Anthony Quinn, journalist, novelist, Scouser and life-long Liverpool fan, has written an inspiring, affectionate and hugely revealing portrait of this incredible German manager, who had performed a similar job at his previous club Borussia Dortmund, where he is still idolised despite his departure. Less full biography and more love-letter, KLOPP will be, like Fever Pitch, a study of the author himself, and of the universal appeal of sport, fandom and obsession.
