"My book is about all the naughty things that my brother Charlie has done. Some of it is funny, some of it is a bit sad, and lots of it is disgusting, because that's what Charlie can be. It might even make you be sick, so get ready." These laugh-out-loud short stories are all about Charlie, a small, curious boy that pushes his luck... and then gives it another shove, just to see what will happen. It's how Mum ends up straddling a baggage carousel, Dad finds himself over-exposed at the pool, and a stranger gets a mouthful of stinky cheese. Primary-aged children up will love these warm, witty and occasionally revolting tales, narrated by Charlie's long-suffering sister. They're perfect as bedtime stories, or for reading by older kids, giggling by torchlight under the duvet.

On a beach clean-up, thirteen-year-old one-legged Charlie and his half-brother, Robbie, find a ponaturi – a mermaid – washed up on a beach. An ancient grudge between the Māori gods Tāne and Tangaroa has flared up because a port being built in the bay is degrading the ocean and creatures are fleeing the sea. This has reignited anger between the gods, which breaks out in storms, earthquakes and huge seas. The human world and realm of the gods are thrown into chaos. The ponaturi believes Charlie is the only one who can stop the destruction because his stump is a sign that he straddles both worlds. So begins Charlie’s journey to find a way to reunite the gods, realise the power in the ancient songs his grandfather taught him, and discover why he was the one for the task.

Brixton Keys gorgeously realized Charlie Six stands among the best coming-of-age novels with its poetic and realistic evocation of London in the 1960s and a boy who needs to bust out of its post-war mentality. Of course, it doesn't help that his father is a gangster and his mother a world-class nightlife addict. Charlie Six is as much at home mixing 'Gin and Its' as he is listening to the rock music and Beat poetry that charts his growth and finally leads to his escape. He has the frankness and tenderness of the best main characters with his truthful gaze and penetrating sense of his own circumstances. What Charlie learns along the way is both heartbreaking and hilarious – Maxine Chernoff, "Some of Her Friends That Year"

Wilson secretly helped turn cocaine into the Western world’s number one recreational drug of choice. Secret Narco unravels the bullet riddled, never-before-told history of South Londoner Wilson’s cocaine empire and his forays into the deadliest killing fields of all: South America. Bestselling author Wensley Clarkson’s meticulously researched story features interviews with many of Wilson’s friends, family members and enemies on both sides of the law enforcement divide, as well as associates of Pablo Escobar. .br> Secret Narco also reveals the final, tragic circumstances behind Wilson and Escobar’s bloody deaths, and how their twisted ‘partnership’ proved that gangsters never rest in peace.
