<p>The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes: Illustrated by David Mackintosh (Alma Junior Classics)</p>

<p>From his Baker Street apartment, Sherlock Holmes wields his powers of deduction in pursuit of justice and truth, venturing out into foggy Victorian London accompanied by his faithful sidekick Dr Watson. This classic collection of Holmes tales includes many of the detective's most-loved exploits: Holmes is confronted by a venomous snake in 'The Adventure of the Speckled Band', mystified by a missing thumb in 'The Adventure of the Engineer's Thumb' and beguiled by a beautiful opera singer in 'A Scandal in Bohemia', never once losing his famous cool.First appearing separately in the Strand Magazine, these stories were published together in 1892 in a volume that rapidly became one of the most popular Sherlock Holmes collections. Showcasing Arthur Conan Doyle's inimitable genius for mystery and storytelling, these tales are proof that the famous detective remains one of the greatest crime fighters ever created.</p>

<p>ABOUT THE SERIES: Alma Junior Classics series of illustrated classics includes some of the greatest books ever written for younger readers and new translations of unjustly neglected international works. Our aim is to give our list an international feel and offer young readers to opportunity to connect with other cultures and literatures this applies not only to the titles we chose but also to the illustrators we commission so that we can bring a bit of novelty into the canon of British children's literature. All children's classics contain extra material for young readers, including a profile of the author, a section on the book, a list of characters, a glossary and a test-yourself quiz.</p>

<p>The Doll Factory</p>

<p>'A sharp, scary, gorgeously evocative tale of love, art and obsession' Paula Hawkins, author of&nbsp;The Girl on the Train</p>

<p>The Doll Factory, the debut novel by Elizabeth Macneal,&nbsp;is an intoxicating story of art, obsession and possession.</p>

<p>London. 1850. The Great Exhibition is being erected in Hyde Park and among the crowd watching the spectacle two people meet. For Iris, an aspiring artist, it is the encounter of a moment – forgotten seconds later, but for Silas, a collector entranced by the strange and beautiful, that meeting marks a new beginning.</p>

<p>When Iris is asked to model for pre-Raphaelite artist Louis Frost, she agrees on the condition that he will also teach her to paint. Suddenly her world begins to expand, to become a place of art and love.</p>

<p>But Silas has only thought of one thing since their meeting, and his obsession is darkening . . .</p>

<p>Skillful Second Edition Level 4 Reading &amp; Writing Student's Book + Digital Student's Book Pack</p>

<p>Skillful Reading &amp; Writing&nbsp;helps teachers prepare their students for academic work in English by teaching not only language systems – grammar and vocabulary – but the necessary skills to engage with topics, texts and discourse with classmates. Students need to know how to do things: how to explain, persuade, outline and argue a thesis, distinguish between important and unimportant information, make transitions, identify cause and effect and more.&nbsp;Skillful&nbsp;acknowledges that acquiring these skills is not a matter of memorizing facts, but is rather a matter of students noticing them as they read, breaking them down and understanding them through clear explanations, and then practicing those skills in carefully scaffolded writing activities that lead to freer practice. There are also study skills pages within the units which teach students strategies they can use to improve their academic performance and build confidence for ongoing independent learning.</p>

<p>Each unit begins with a stunning visual as well as a discussion point and infographic to orient students and engage them with the unit’s theme. Each unit opening section contains authentic Reuters video, which presents engaging real-world topics to spark ideas and debate. The video can be streamed online or downloaded from the Student’s Resource Center. Unit topics mirror those in&nbsp;Skillful Listening &amp; Speaking&nbsp;so both books can be used alongside each other.</p>

<p>Influence: How Social Media Influencers Are Shaping Our Digital Future</p>

<p>Digital influencing is one of the most exciting and disruptive new media industries, forecast to be worth over GBP10bn by 2020. Influencers now dominate the digital world and, when it comes to growth, they are consistently outperforming traditional media and brand advertising.Despite their prominence, digital influencers continue to be misunderstood and undervalued by many people, as those charged with incorporating the influencer space into their digital strategy rarely comprehend how this extremely powerful industry works. As one of the leading authorities on the influencer space, Sara McCorquodale demystifies exactly how it operates, as she interrogates the phenomenon, analyses its problems and forecasts its future. Influence draws upon first-hand interviews with world-renowned influencers, providing an invaluable insight into the inner-workings of digital culture and how it can best be used as an effective marketing and branding platform. This compelling guide on how to effectively identify and utilise the power of influencers is a must-read for anyone who wants their business to succeed and prosper online.</p>

<p>The Social CEO: How Social Media Can Make You A Stronger Leader</p>

<p>There remains a huge gulf in understanding by many leaders of what some are calling the Social Age - huge changes going on in society, enabling anyone with a smartphone to sign up to a social network and comment on anything and everything. Despite this revolution, which has been embraced by the masses, it is the people at the top of organizations who have been slowest to understand and adapt to it.</p>

<p>While business leaders may feel that it's enough to hire social media managers and amend their marketing strategies, Damian Corbet shows why organizations need to do more to succeed in the Social Age - why CEOs need to 'get social' to survive.</p>

<p>The Social CEO&nbsp;sets out to educate and inspire senior leaders to embrace the Social Age, teaching them the hows and whys of utilising social media in order to make them stronger leaders. Social CEOs can effectively encourage engagement from their employees as well as other stakeholders and customers; they're better able to communicate their organization's objectives and values, gauge the climate in which they operate and improve their brand image.</p>

<p>Offering invaluable contributions from industry-recognised experts in social business,&nbsp;The Social CEO&nbsp;explores the many aspects of leading in the Social Age, such as storytelling, personal branding, managing risk and public relations. With chapters also written by practising 'social CEOs' working across a variety of sectors, from healthcare to sport, the book provides a wealth of insight into how social media can be used to gain a competitive advantage.</p>

<p>The Battle For Sky: The Murdochs, Disney, Comcast And The Future Of Entertainment</p>

<p>From perilous early years through clashes with the BBC and BT, not to mention the News Corporation bid for full control that failed in the wake of 2010's phone hacking scandal, there has been no shortage of drama in Sky's history - nor in its likely future. In 2018, the organization was the target of bids from two true titans of the global media industry - Disney and Comcast - with a dramatic bidding war waged for ultimate ownership. Throw in an industry already shaken by the arrival of newer media players such as Netflix, the declining circulation of Murdoch newspapers such as The Sun and The Times, as well as the UK government's scrutiny of the Murdoch family's influence on UK media, and the scene was set for a major corporate battle of a size rarely seen on the global business stage.</p>

<p>But how exactly did Comcast win in the battle for shareholder votes? How will the Murdoch empire fare when the dust finally settles? And what does it mean now for the future of entertainment in a streaming, downloadable and digital world?</p>

<p>Featuring interviews with key individuals and stakeholders from around the world, The Battle for Sky offers a timely and intriguing glimpse into the workings of media empires, and a gripping account of one of the largest corporate battles in recent years.</p>

<p>A Shot In The Dark: A Constable Twitten Mystery 1</p>

<p>WINNER OF THE CRIMEFEST LAST LAUGH AWARD 2019</p>

<p>The charming first novel in a new comic crime series, from one of Britain's most-loved writers, the incomparable Lynne Truss</p>

<p>'More Marx Brothers than Agatha Christie, this is crime fiction turned on its head -&nbsp;a giddy spell of sheer delight'&nbsp;Daily Mail</p>

<p>Brighton, 1957. Inspector Steine rather enjoys his life as a policeman by the sea. No criminals, no crime, no stress.</p>

<p>So it's really rather annoying when an ambitious - not to mention irritating - new constable shows up to work and starts investigating a series of burglaries. And it's even more annoying when, after Constable Twitten is despatched to the theatre for the night, he sits next to a vicious theatre critic who is promptly shot dead part way through the opening night of a new play.</p>

<p>It seems Brighton may be in need of a police force after all.</p>

<p>I Will Miss You Tomorrow (A Thorkild Aske Mystery)</p>

<p>The first in a new Norwegian crime series featuring disgraced ex-Chief Inspector Thorkild Aske, a damaged man with a complicated past Fresh out of prison and a stint in a psychiatric hospital, disgraced ex-policeman Thorkild Aske only wants to lose himself in drugged dreams of his beloved Frei.

<p>Sail Away</p>

<p>The deliciously witty, irresistibly indulgent novel from the top ten&nbsp;Sunday Times-bestselling author of&nbsp;Not Quite Nice&nbsp;follows the exploits of two women on board an Atlantic cruise ship</p>

<p>Suzy Marshall and Amanda Herbert have both found themselves on a transatlantic cruiser by accident: struggling actress Suzy has had her play abruptly cancelled under rather suspicious circumstances; and Amanda's found herself homeless in rainy Clapham after her flat purchase falls through. But the ship has barely left the harbor before Suzy and Amanda realize that there's something very strange afoot indeed. Neither can predict the strange characters and dodgy dealings they will encounter - nor the unexpected rewards to reaped at high sea.</p>

<p>Brick By Brick: Success In Business And Life</p>

<p>Success is a simple thing that most people believe to be something mysterious and complicated - the reality, according to Paul Bassi, is something completely different. In the vast majority of cases, the people at the top have got there by following disciplines that open to everyone. The truth about success is that it's closer than you might think but harder work than you expect.</p>

<p>Anyone can be successful in life - by your own definition, which is the only one that really matters - if you set yourself a central ambition and follow some fundamental principles about how it can be achieved. While the advice in this book may look primarily at business and property, the underlying themes are applicable to whatever life and career you wish to pursue.</p>

<p>Drawing on stories from his youth, early career, family life and his current position as one of the Midlands' most prominent property investors, Paul Bassi shows how you can plan your own journey to success. It won't be easy; it won't happen overnight; and it won't come without making sacrifices. But if you want it badly enough and are prepared to be disciplined and relentless in your approach, it is all perfectly possible. This book will show you exactly what it takes.</p>

<p>From My Heart: The Autobiography</p>

<p>'While I don’t have any choice in how long I have to live, I do have a choice in how I spend the time I have. And I’ve chosen not to spend it constantly stressing about cancer. I’ve chosen to enjoy the little things. I’ve chosen to laugh. And I’ve chosen to look back on my life and thank God for it.'</p>

<p>In March 2017, Linda Nolan was diagnosed with secondary breast cancer and was given the terrible news that, while it was treatable, it was not curable. Her first thought was to worry about her family, who were still grieving the loss of their sister Bernie. Her second was, ‘But I’m alive and I’m going to fight it.’</p>

<p>In&nbsp;From My Heart, Linda writes honestly about growing up in her big Irish family and finding fame with her sisters in The Nolans and reveals the shocking family secrets and feuds that threatened to tear them apart. She also describes her original battle with breast cancer and how the death of her husband left her deeply depressed, to the point of feeling suicidal. Just as she’d learned to embrace life again, and even to start dating, the cancer came back . . . In this warm, brave and funny memoir, Linda shows that it’s never too late to learn what really matters.</p>

<p>White</p>

<p>Own it, snowflakes: you've&nbsp;lost&nbsp;everything you&nbsp;claim to&nbsp;hold dear.</p>

<p>White&nbsp;is Bret Easton Ellis's first work of nonfiction. Already the&nbsp;bad boy of American literature, from&nbsp;Less Than Zero&nbsp;to&nbsp;American Psycho, Ellis has also&nbsp;earned the wrath of right-thinking people everywhere with his provocations on social media, and here he&nbsp;escalates his admonishment of received truths as&nbsp;expressed by today's version of "the left." Eschewing convention, he embraces views that will make many in literary and&nbsp;media communities&nbsp;cringe, as he takes aim at the relentless anti-Trump fixation, coastal elites, corporate&nbsp;censorship, Hollywood, identity politics, Generation Wuss, "woke"&nbsp;cultural watchdogs, the obfuscation of ideals&nbsp;once both&nbsp;cherished and clear, and the fugue state of American democracy. In a young century marked by hysterical correctness and obsessive fervency on both sides of an aisle that's taken on the scale of the Grand Canyon,&nbsp;White&nbsp;is a clarion call for freedom of speech and artistic freedom.</p>

<p>"The central tension in Ellis's art—or his life, for that matter—is that while [his] aesthetic is the cool reserve of his native California, detachment over ideology, he can't stop generating heat.... He's hard-wired to break furniture."—Karen Heller,&nbsp;The&nbsp;Washington Post</p>

<p>"Sweating with rage . . . humming with paranoia."—Anna Leszkiewicz,&nbsp;The Guardian</p>

<p>"Snowflakes on both coasts in withdrawal from Rachel Maddow's nightly Kremlinology lesson can purchase a whole book to inspire paroxysms of rage . . . a veritable thirst trap for the easily microaggressed. It's all here. Rants about Trump derangement syndrome; MSNBC; MeToo; safe spaces."—Bari Weiss, The New York Times</p>
