Genevieve is a converted French fishing boat, manned by British officers and a small crew of free French ex-fishermen, armed only with a flame-thrower and few arms. They carry out their daring attack on the German boats off the Brittany coast. Every man involved in the raid is an unlikely hero in his own way.

The Last Secret Of The Temple
A two thousand year-old mystery – a pulse-pounding race against time...
From ancient Jerusalem, the Crusades, Cathar heretics and coded medieval manuscripts to the Holocaust, hidden Nazi treasure and the murderous present-day, The Last Secret of the Temple is a thrilling rollercoaster ride of an adventure.
The Secret Potion by Tony Flood is a terrific tantalising tale that will have you on tender hooks by the end of chapter 1. Jody Richards is a well crafted heroin for all children to relate to. After reading it myself, I would thoroughly recommend it to children and young adults who are fans of the fantasy world. A must read for all you Harry Potter fans out there!
'The Devil was about to be tamed.' Her name is Hannah Reid. Born a commoner, she has been Duchess of Dunbarton ever since she was nineteen years old, the wife of an elderly duke to whom she has been rumored to be consistently and flagrantly unfaithful. Now the old duke is dead and, more womanly and beautiful than ever at thirty, Hannah has her freedom at last. And she knows just what she wants to do with it. To the shock of a conventional friend, she announces her intention to take a lover - and not just any lover, but the most dangerous and delicious man in all of upper-class England: Constantine Huxtable.
