We have a huge range of maps and city guides in our expansive travel section; there's no excuse not to try something different in the kitchen with so many general and world cookery books to choose from; and we all know how the kids are notoriously hard-to-please, so make sure you experience the thousands of books in our renowned children's department.

The Broken Window
Jeffrey Deaver
£8.49 £16.99
Hardback
Rhyme's cousin has been arrested for murder. The evidence clearly shows he did it, but Rhyme agrees to check things out.
It turns out that the cousin along with other people has been wrongly convicted because the true killer knows every single detail about the lives of the victims he kills and the men he sets up to take the fall for those crimes. This allows him to get close to the victims under false pretenses, murder or rape, and escape safely. And then he sets up others to take the fall for his crimes, planting incontrovertible evidence Rhyme, Sachs and the rest of the team have to find out who at the huge, ominous data mining company is getting access to this information.
Meanwhile the villain--known only by a number to us--realizes he's being pursued and turns his knowledge of data and information into a weapon. Oh, and lest things seem too delicate, he also gets information through good old-fashioned murder and torture too.
The Sleeping Doll
Jeffrey Deaver
£3.49 £6.99
Paperback
California Bureau of Investigation Special agent Kathryn Dance is an expert in kinesics: the science of interpreting behaviour.
It makes her a brilliant interrogator. But she's up against Daniel Pell, a master of control who mesmerises, seduces and exploits people for his own murderous ends. A convicted killer who is known as The Son of Manson for the chilling parallels between him and the notorious ritual murderer.
To track down Pell before he destroys yet more lives, Kathyn Dance must enlist the help of four people from the killer's past. The three women who lived under his sadistic sway in the cult he once headed. And the young girl known as the Sleeping Doll, the only survivor of her family's slaughter at Pell's hands.
