Strange Buildings

Uketsu & Jim Rion

A lonely hut in the woods. A murder house. A hidden chamber. A mysterious shrine. A home in flames. A nightmarish prison. Each of the buildings in this book tells a chilling story. Each one is part of a puzzle. Look closely - and you'll see that everything is connected. All leading to a revelation so horrifying you won't want to believe it.

Rocket's red glare

James Patterson & Matt Eversmann

Enter Rocket's Red Glare - a covert unit so classified it doesn't officially exist. Led by former Special Forces operative Nat Phillips, this team is built to respond when national security collapses. But what begins as a manhunt for a killer soon unravels into a global conspiracy stretching from Washington to foreign capitals. To save his country, Phillips must face the unthinkable - because the next war has already begun.

The name game

Beth O'Leary

The Isle of Ormer: population 500, soon to be 501. Charlie Jones has landed on the island to embark on her brand new life. As the manager at Ormer's only farm shop, this job will be her perfect next chapter. Good riddance to the mainland, this is it - fresh air, and a clean slate. Except there is one small issue...

Hanged: execution in the Top End

Derek Pugh

Ten men were legally executed in Australia's Northern Territory. Some were hanged on their own Country, their deaths intended as warnings. Others were buried behind the walls of Darwin's Fannie Bay Gaol in unmarked graves and forgotten. They were Indigenous tribesmen, Chinese gold miners, and European refugees. Their crimes, trials, and punishments unfolded in a frontier society shaped by race, fear, and power - yet their stories have largely vanished from the national memory.

Ayaiga: neighbour and hero

Thomas Higgs, Wally Wilfred & Colin Michael Hall

In the remote Roper River region of the Northern Territory more than 120 years ago, an Alawa man committed an act of such exceptional bravery that a King took notice.
