If you knew a book was cursed would you read it? When Ariel Manto uncovers a copy of The End of Mr. Y is a second-hand bookshop, she can't believe her eyes.

«Alice Butler has been receiving some odd messages — all anonymous, all written in code. Are they from someone at PopCo, the profit-hungry corporation she works for? Or from Alice's long lost father? Or has someone else been on her trail? The solution, she is sure, will involve the code-breaking skills she learned from her grandparents and the key she's been wearing round her neck since she was ten. «PopCo» is a grown-up adventure of family secrets, puzzles, big business and the power of numbers.»

He wants to go out. She wants to stay in. For some reason, they are best friends. Luke is twenty-five, allergic to the sun and housebound. He's stuck in his bedroom where the world comes to him through TV, the internet and Julie's visits. Julie meanwhile is brilliant, kind and could be changing the world. Unfortunately she is too terrified of aeroplane crashes, road accidents and potentially life-threatening bacteria to leave her home town. When someone contacts Luke and claims that he can cure him, Luke and Julie have to deal with their fears and face the world outside. With four friends, wellies and a homemade space suit, they set off in a VW Camper van, along Britain's B-roads. It is a journey that might just change their lives.

If Kelsey Newman's theory about the end of time is true, we are all going to live forever. For Meg — locked in a hopeless relationship and creatively uninspired — this thought fills her with dread. But could there be an important connection to be made between a wild beast living on Dartmoor, a ship in a bottle, the science of time, a knitting pattern for the shape of the universe and the Cottingley fairies? And could a story offer a way through her own personal labyrinth?

'Bright Young Things wanted for Big Project'. They're in the prime of their lives but our bright young things are all burnt out. Six sparky twenty-somethings just out of university and working dead-end jobs, they are all bored to tears with their lives and looking for a way out. When a mysterious job is advertised in the newspaper, they all apply. What they least expect is to find themselves prisoners on a deserted island. There's food in the fridge and they have a bedroom each, but there's no telephone, no television, and no way to escape.
