Modern Fiction Book of the Month – February 2025

Imprisoned in the quarries of Syracuse, thousands of defeated Athenians hang on by the thinnest of threads. They’re fading in the baking heat, but not everything is lost: they can still recite lines from Greek tragedy when tempted by Lampo and Gelon with goatskins of wine and scraps of food. And so an idea is born. Because, after all, you can hate the invaders but still love their poetry… The funniest tragedy you’ll ever read.

Mystery Book of the Month – February 2025

Something doesn’t add up at the seaside… As an actuary for an insurance company, Una’s job is to spot patterns that other people might miss. When the data for her latest project – into the predicted number of deaths in seaside resorts – shows a blip in her forecasts, Una’s untarnished reputation at work is at risk. And as strange fatalities are befalling her mother’s bingo crowd, Una must put aside her spreadsheets and begin to investigate. A witty mystery, with math and murders.
