Reviews
“Those who would believe that the art of fiction is moribund – let them read Yann Martel with astonishment, delight and gratitude.” Alberto Manguel
“The whole fantastic voyage carries hints of ‘The Old Man and the Sea’ and the magic realism of Amado and Marquez and the absurdity of Beckett… Yann Martel does a beautiful job.” Globe and Mail (Toronto)
“Martel writes like a more compassionate Paul Auster.” Times Literary Supplement
“Martel finds dazzling ways of expressing the hitherto unexpressed.” Mail on Sunday
“Reminiscent of Italo Calvino.” Independent on Sunday

Every day Charles Schine rides the 8:43 to do the job he has done for over a decade in a New York advertising agency. With a wife and an ill child who depend on him, Charles is not a man who likes changes or takes risks... until he is late for his regular train - and sits down across from the woman of his dreams.
Her name is Lucinda. Like Charles, she is married. Like Charles, she takes the train every day to work in New York City. Her train is the 9: 05, and tomorrow she will be on it again - and so will Charles. For there is something about Lucinda that will make Charles take a chance he shouldn't take, break a vow he shouldn't break, and enter a room he should never enter...
In a matter of days, a flirtation turns to a passion, and Charles and Lucinda are drawn into the dark side of the American Dream. In a matter of weeks, Charles's life is in shambles. A man is dead. A small fortune is stolen. Charles's home is violated and everything violently spirals out of control.
But Charles is about to discover that once you leave the straight and narrow, getting back on track is the most perilous journey of all.

Dr Kay Scarpetta has left Virginia in quest of peace but instead finds herself drawn into baffling, horrific murders in Florida, where she becomes entangled in an international conspiracy that confronts her with the shock of her life.
Reviews
‘All of Cornwell’s books run on high octane fuel, a cocktail of adrenalin and fear…such is her grip on her audience and such is her ability to suck you into her hermetic, claustrophobic world that Scarpetta’s tension becomes the reader’s. Her fear is contagious, her adrenalin levels boost your own’ The Times
‘Scarpetta is a compassionate, moral crusader, a force for good in a sea of evil. Her focus is on the victims. There is never any attempt at understanding the “squirrels” who kill for their twisted reasons. There is no redemption for them either. And that’s how it should be.’ Daily Mail
