Life is passing Holly Grant by. She had dreams of being a journalist. Now in her late twenties, she's a bored office worker. But on her train home, Holly has eight thousand pounds drop into her lap, along with a curious note. Does she get off the north-bound train, as normal, and pop the money into the local police station on the way home to her scatter-brained mother, or does she stay on the train until it reaches Newcastle and take the money to someone who might know what the note means and allow her to pursue the mystery further?

When Hayley Cartwright and Samuel T. Orm start their school term, they notice a few things are looking a bit odd around their hometown of Whitby. But that's normal for Hayle and Storm; they often discover odd things that others miss. However, a morning mushroom hunting results in their "Odd-O-Meter" going off the scale when they find themselves the guardians of a Sun Starter, a creature with rather special abilities. Hayle and Storm's adventure doesn't stop there—the town of Whitby is hiding a much, much bigger secret.

In 2013, Kurdish journalist Behrouz Boochani sought asylum in Australia but was instead illegally imprisoned in the country’s most notorious detention centre on Manus Island. He has been there ever since. This book is the result. Behrouz Boochani spent nearly five years typing passages of this book one text at a time from a secret mobile phone in prison. Compiled and translated from Farsi, they form an incredible story of how escaping political persecution in Iran, he ended up trapped as a stateless person.
