THE WITCHES OF ST PETERSBURG
The Russian Empire is on the verge of collapse. Revolution is in the air. The starving stalk the streets of St Petersburg and yet the Imperial Court still commute between their estates and organise their lavish balls.
Two sisters arrive in the city. Princesses from Montenegro; they are famed for their wild beauty and mystical powers. Initially ridiculed and outcast as the daughters of a provincial ‘Goat King,’ they react in the only way they know how. They befriend the isolated Tsarina Alexandra and, using their gifts, they help her in her increasingly desperate quest to give birth to a son and heir. The circle closes. The girls are the gateway. Gurus, clairvoyants, holy fools and charlatans all try their luck. Then in one, doomed, last throw of the dice, the sisters introduce Rasputin into the Russian Court…
Based on a true story of the lives of Princess Militza and Princess Anastasia of Montenegro during the dying days of the Russian Empire The Witches of St Petersburg is a tale of love, lust, power and betrayal at the heart of the Romanov Court.

HOTEL BABYLON
Hotel Babylon is a trawl through the highs and lows, the extremes, the tragedies, the miseries, the decadence and the debauchery of the ultimate service industry – where the money not only talks but gets you the best room, the best service and also entitles you to behave in any way you please….
AIR BABYLON
Do you know the best place to have sex on a plane? Do you know that one drink in the air equals three on the ground? Do you know who is checking you in? Who is checking you out? Do you know what happens to your luggage once it leaves your sight? Is it secure? Are you safe? Do you really know anything about the industry to which you entrust your life several times a year?
FASHION BABYLON
Exquisitely cut and gorgeously detailed, Fashion Babylon explains the mark-ups and the comedowns, the fabulous extremes and the shoddy short cuts behind one of the most lucrative and secretive of businesses. Whether you just like a bit of shopping or you‚re a hardcore fashionista, Fashion Babylon will change the way you sashay into Top Shop, flick through the pages of Vogue and worship at the temple of Harvey Nichols forever.
BEACH BABYLON
Beach Babylon takes you behind the scenes of the world of the five-star tropical island resort. Do all of the stories which take place behind closed doors of the exclusive spa have happy endings? What do the world's richest people expect from room service during their fortnight in paradise? What does the windsurfing instructor do to keep sane after hours?
POP BABYLON
Tracking a year in the making of a brand-new boy band, Pop Babylon is pure, unadulterated reading pleasure - stuffed with stories about pop’s most demanding divas, which jocks do shock and just how long you can chop a line of cocaine. Disgraceful, revelatory and great down-and-dirty fun, it’s essential reading for anyone who wants to know what it really takes nowadays to be top of the pops.
WEDDING BABYLON
Following a week in the life of a busy wedding planner, and based entirely on true but anonymous stories, Wedding Babylon takes you to the heart of an industry where emotions run high, money flows like champagne and £3,000 cakes are made of polystyrene. Why are weddings so expensive? What makes us spend a year's wages on one Big Day? And just how Big does your Day actually have to be?
HOSPITAL BABYLON
We will meet doctors who sleep with nurses. Doctors who sleep with patients. Doctors who fiddle their insurance forms. Doctors who suck fat, pump up breasts, plump lips and lengthen penises. The doctor who specialises in flatulence. The doctor who shoots up before he operates. Doctor Feelgood who will give you anything and everything you need. As well as the doctor who makes a fortune doing buttock enlargements in the Caribbean.
RESTAURANT BABYLON
Welcome to the restaurant business, where the hours are punishing, the conditions are brutal and the Chef's Special has been languishing at the back of the fridge for the past three days. This is an industry plagued with obsessives. Why else do some chefs drive themselves crazy in pursuit of elusive Michelin stars, when in reality all they're doing is 'making someone else's tea'?
FICTION
MY CANAPE HELL
When journalist Abigail Long gets her own column – Abigail’s Party – she is propelled into the sparkling world of celebrity, champagne and canapés. Seduced by the bright lights and sound-bites, she swaps real friends and true love for late nights and laminated invitations. As launch party follows launch party and premiere follows premiere, the circuit becomes increasingly addictive.
With a full diary but an empty life without old mates and comfort food, the glamour of mingling with the stars soon begins to tarnish. After a close relationship with the hottest new actor in town, Abigail suddenly finds herself the other side of the lens. And so begins her final true decent into true canapé hell.
My Canapé Hell is a sharp, witty debut, which offers a wry insider’s view into the world of PT, parties and professional small talk. It is a biting and wickedly funny satire on the celebrity circuit.
“If I were ever going to read a book it would be this one,” Caroline Aherne.

Naïve and unsophisticated, Madeleine falls heavily for the latest flirtation on the dinner party circuit. For the first time she allows herself to think beyond soirees at Angela’s, barbeques at Liz’s and political fundraising at Val’s.

THE WENDY HOUSE
Charlie is back. Back after five years photographing in the hot-spots of the world from the flooded plains of Mozambique to the victims of the Rwandan genocide. Successful and single, she is shocked to find her feisty girl adventures are not topics for conversation at dinner tables where the merits of marriage, maternity and the latest marinade dominate.
By contrast, her sister Kate, one-time sassy vixen, is now a young married with two small children, one large au-pair, a stainless-steel balloon whisk and an interior-designed house with New Labour Pistachio walls. Kate is also in therapy – retail therapy. And she is determined Charlie should follow suit.
When Charlie meets fellow photographer Andrew Edwards, a man with a government health warning tattooed on his forehead, it looks like independence isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
But who is really missing out? What is a modern girl to do these days? Who is she supposed to be? And can real domestic happiness only be played out in a wendy house?

TUSCANY FOR BEGINNERS UK VERSION
Tuscany. Glorious Tuscany. With its sunflowers, its olive groves, its rolling countryside and its stunning vistas, it is everyone’s picture perfect place in the sun. And Belinda Smith couldn’t be happier.
Leaving the drizzly dormitory town of Tiling behind, after discovering her husband in bed with another woman, Belinda has found a little valley to call her own. Known locally as the ‘Contessa,’ she runs an up-market B&B, she plans the Christmas Panto, she represents the community in the annual cheese rolling competition. She is the epicentre of all things expatriate. Life, in short, could not be more ‘perfecto.’ Until the arrival of the feisty Wall Street ball-breaker, Lauren, that is.
Sandblasting over her frescos and Belinda’s social supremacy, Lauren’s arrival divides the ex-pat community. And when Belinda’s daughter falls in love with Lauren’s son, war is well and truly declared. Fireworks are ignited, sheep cheese is thrown and Belinda’s entire world collapses around her. Only one question remains: is Val di Santa Caterina big enough for the both of them?

THE TAMING OF EAGLES
The Taming of Eagles recounts the experiences of a young journalist despatched with a photographer to explore the rapidly dissolving Soviet Union in the early months of 1992. Imogen Edwards-Jones and Joth Shakerley recorded their 100-day journey over many thousands of miles, capturing atmosphere, incidents, the disparate lives and thoughts of the ordinary Soviet people, and their hopes for the near future.
The journey began on New Year’s Eve in Moscow’s Red Square. They talked to priests and prostitutes, witnessing the turmoil as this once rich and powerful country started to shed the binds of over seventy years of Communism and assume the new disciplines of capitalism. Crossing the Caspian Sea, they lived with the people of the Red Desert and followed the Silk Route through the southern states to the frozen waves of Lake Baikal. Over Siberian forest and taiga, mountains and icy rivers, they journeyed to the Far East. Passing through nine time zones, they arrived in the previously forbidden city of Vladivostok, before returning to Moscow, scurvy-ridden and exhausted.
