Kololo Hill by Neema Shah: I'm alone, I'm alone

Compelled to forsake your homeland in just 90 days. Disconnected from so much that is precious, and forced to leave without possessions. Plunged into a strange, unwelcoming country of weird food, weather and customs. In 1972 Idi Amin purged Uganda of almost the entire minority Indian-lineage population. In this unspeakable act, he expelled the ‘Asian’ population, with just 90 days to prepare, in an atmosphere of mounting violence and dispossession. Many of those with British passports arrived practically penniless in the cold and unwelcoming UK. After nearly 50 years, this agonising story has largely faded from public memory - until now.

Can you see her by S.E Lynes: it started the day I reasoned I was invisible

The gruesome consequences of a woman’s midlife invisibility. Her unheeded struggle with her mundane life. A twisting, poignant tale of pain, disconnection, and murder. Can You See Her? opens with the overlooked middle-aged Rachel confessing to murder. From Rachel’s reflections, we follow the events of her life and discover why she believes she is a murderer. Ostensibly at the core of Rachel’s guilt is the belief of her seeming invisibility. Welcome to simplygoodbooks where you can find good book recommendations. Looking for a good book?

The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell: the questions were not whether or why but how.

Emotive singing plucked from the stars. A broken priest shamefully repatriated. The heartbreaking consequences of ignorance and altruism. The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell is a brilliantly written, stimulating novel, poignant, disturbing, and tragic. I’m not a science fiction fan and was hesitant about reading The Sparrow when it was chosen at our book club, however, from the very first page the book captivated my interest. The themes, structure, and characters are masterful, and the core premise of the novel deeply challenges your thinking. Welcome to simplygoodbooks where you can find good book recommendations.

Nighthawking by Russ Thomas: what was lost will always be found

A detectorist’s grisly find uncovered in Sheffield’s Botanical Gardens. A cold case detective searching for long-awaited answers. An inexperienced DC grappling with politics and possible corruption. Who’d have thought those involved in the prosaic world of the night time detectorist, disquietingly named a Nighthawker, would be embroiled in greed, malfeasance, and murder. In the tense and compelling Nighthawking, DS Adam Tyler investigates the murder of an unidentified young woman, wrestles with the mystery of his father’s suicide, and attempts to fathom the questionable agenda of his slippery superior. Working with Adam Tyler is the assertive and ambitious, but unversed, DC Mina Rabbani, navigating the challenging personalities of the police hierarchy, seeking the truth whilst suspecting conspiracy. Nighthawking cleverly intertwines the nocturnal activities of the treasure-hunters with the divergent efforts of the police team investigating the murder, and the complicated personal life of DS Adam Tyler. In doing so we meet a cast of police personalities and possible suspects cleverly placed and expertly described to arouse our empathy or antagonism and stimulate our whodunnit antennae. Russ Thomas artfully leads us in satisfying perplexity through the zig-zag progress of the investigation, planting clues and hints through the course of events to the possible identity and motive of the murderer. Each one of the characters, from the odious Daley, to the menacing McKenna are defined and convincing, and from time to time we are permitted an illuminating glimpse into a character's internal life. Sheffield and its University almost become characters in themselves, as we're guided across the city to significant locations. The suspense builds with a series of diverting twists culminating in a gruesome confrontation and unforeseen resolution. If you like a tense and chilling murder mystery, inhabited by diverse and convincing characters then Russ Thomas’ Nighthawking is for you.

The Weeping Pussy Willow by Tamara Frankel illustrated by Simon Frankel. Good book recommendation.

The Weeping Pussy Willow evokes wistful childhood memories, mingled with an adult realisation of a deeper meaning. Recently our family needed to clear the home of my late mother and father who’d lived in their bungalow for over 37 years. Kneeling in the loft sorting through my childhood belongings which had languished there for many years I uncovered a battered copy of the The Weeping Pussy Willow by Tamara Frankel, illustrated by Simon Frankel.
