Acclaimed sci-fi author Alan E. Nourse offers up an exciting tale of treachery, adventure, and vast wealth in the novel Gold in the Sky. The story unfolds among the rarefied and rough-and-tumble crews who mine the surface of asteroids for valuable metals and minerals. Much like the lawless mining towns of the Old West, these groups are made up of rapacious types who will stop at nothing to strike it rich.

Growing up in her sleepy Cornish village dreaming of being a writer, sixteen-year-old Lou has always wondered about the grand Cardew house which has stood empty for years. And when the owners arrive for the summer - a handsome, dashing brother and sister - Lou is quite swept off her feet and into a world of moonlit cocktail parties and glamour beyond her wildest dreams. But, as she grows closer to the Cardews, is she abandoning her own ambitions... and is there something darker lurking at the heart of the Cardew family? A gorgeously dreamy coming-of-age romance set against a stunning Gatsby-esque backdrop, this is perfect for fans of 'I Capture the Castle' and Eva Ibbotson.

Family circumstances force siblings Ying and Lai Yue to flee their home in China to seek their fortunes in Australia. Life on the gold fields is hard, and they soon abandon the diggings and head to nearby Maytown. Once there, Lai Yue gets a job as a carrier on an overland expedition, while Ying finds work in a local store and strikes up a friendship with Meriem, a young white woman with her own troubled past. When a serious crime is committed, suspicion falls on all those who are considered outsiders. Evoking the rich, unfolding tapestry of Australian life in the late nineteenth century, Stone Sky Gold Mountain is a heartbreaking and universal story about the exiled and displaced, about those who encounter discrimination yet yearn for acceptance.

A snow-dusted love story. In the Autumn of 1931, impetuous Freya leaves her family in Cornwall to follow her dream of becoming an actress. She joins a theatrical company and, amidst all the enchantment and bustle of stage life, falls in love with the handsome, glamorous leading man. Neither being an actress nor having a love affair lives up to Freya's grand expectations - which is when she realises her true calling, and also her chance at real romance, has been under her nose all along. An enchanting coming of age romance about following your dreams - even when they aren't quite what you expected. Praise for A SKY PAINTED GOLD: 'The perfect comfort read' Ella Risbridger 'Pure escapism ... a wildly romantic, delicious indulgence' OBSERVER 'A brilliant, beautiful book' Louise O'Neill 'Perfect for glamour-soaked summer escapism' MAIL ON SUNDAY
