  • Cover scan of Demo
    Demo - Paperback - Alison Miller
    'Demo' is a compelling debut novel which depicts the lives of four central characters - Scottish and English - against a backdrop of the current anti-globalisation and anti-war movements.
  • Cover scan of Negative Space
    Negative Space - Paperback - Zoë Strachan
    Simon dies at only 24, leaving his sister alone and haunted by the past. An unexpected trip to Orkney offers a change in her tense and frightening world, and perhaps a solution to her confusion over what to do next.
  • Cover scan of Spin Cycle
    Spin Cycle - Paperback - Zoe Strachan
    Blacker and more ambitious than 'Negative Space', Zoë Strachan's vibrant second novel is illuminated by her light observational touch, deft characterization and gift for creating - and sustaining - suspense. 'Spin Cycle' tells of furtive desires and hidden obsessions.
