She had planned for a week of rest and recuperation. She hadn't planned to fall deeply in love with an irascible detective called Dan Chalmers, a severely wounded hero of Dunkirk who believed no woman would ever look at him again • DI Chalmers is in London to arrest a gang of dangerous East End criminals and root out corrupt police detectives at the Met – and his involvement with Charlotte brings her into serious danger.

Liverpool and Manchester. Two gloriously independent-minded, eclectic, culturally vibrant places. Yet the inhabitants dislike each other with a passion that is visceral. It is a divide that spans generations, across class, gender and ethnicity. And it has grown over the years, largely driven by one thing: football • The dark, malignant loathing shared by the followers of Liverpool and Manchester United has seeped into every aspect of life in the two cities. Football is not a barometer of disdain, as it is in places like Glasgow or Istanbul or Moscow. In northwest England, it is the engine of animosity • How did it come to this? Why did things turn so nasty? And what does it say about the two cities in which the clubs are based? • Written by a Scouser and a Manc in a rare collaboration, Red on Red addresses the divide by talking to those involved in ten seminal football matches

Maude still remembers the sound of the gate being locked behind her. She was three years old when they moved into the secluded manor and in the coming years, she would only be allowed out a handful of times. Her parents belonged to a fanatical Masonic order. She followed a strict schedule of study, hard labour and endless drills designed to ‘eliminate weakness’, such as holding an electric fence without flinching and sitting in a rat-infested cellar. But despite their chilling psychological control, her parents could not control her inner life. Befriending animals on the lonely estate and characters in the books she read, Maude nurtured in herself the compassion and love her parents forbade

Книга Фила МакНалти и Джима Уайта "Красное на красном.

Два великолепно независимых, эклектичных, культурно ярких города. Тем не менее, их жители недолюбливают друг друга с невероятной страстью. Это разделение охватывает поколения, независимо от класса, пола и этнической принадлежности. И с годами она растет, во многом благодаря одной вещи: футболу • Темное, злобное отвращение, разделяемое фанатами "Ливерпуля" и "Манчестер Юнайтед", просочилось во все аспекты жизни в этих двух городах. Футбол не является барометром презрения в таких местах, как Глазго, Стамбул или Москва. Но на северо-западе Англии это двигатель вражды
