******In this revelatory and redemptive book, with characteristic generosity and humour,
Jackie Kay tells the most inspirational of stories: her own. 'I was adopted by warm-spirited
Scottish communists. When people ask me if I've ever found my 'real' Mum and Dad, it is
them I think of. A while ago, I tracked down my Nigerian birth father and discovered him to be
a born-again Christian, who didn't want his current family to know anything about me.
'If people were to know about You', he said, 'they would lose their faith in God'. Heavens, I said.
I hadn't realized I was that powerful. He had my hands, my father, my gestures. Years before,
I traced my birth mother and discovered her to be a Mormon. She had my voice, my mother,
my patterns. "Red Dust Road" is a book about belonging and beliefs, strangers and family,
biology and destiny. What makes us who we are? My adoption is a story that has happened to me.
I couldn't make it up'. From Glasgow to Lagos and beyond, the much-anticipated "Red Dust Road"
takes the reader on an intimate and unforgettable journey across continents and time.

******As an American journalist in Japan, Jake Adelstein uncovered a world unknown
to many of the Japanese public, let alone to foreigners: the world of organized crime.
For 12 years, he investigated for Japan's largest newspaper, the Yomiuri Shinbun.
In his final story, Adelstein went toe-to-toe with one of the country's most notorious
crime bosses, a discovery that led to death threats for him and his family — death
threats that have yet to be lifted. His new memoir about his experiences is called
Tokyo Vice: An American Reporter on the Police Beat in Japan.
Coda 1.5 by Simon Gray
Coda 2.5

Coda 4.5
Coda 5.5
******The last word of the first paragraph of this memoir is "dying". The playwright Simon Gray
had just been told that this was the first day of the last year of his life. While this, of course,
had its downside for him as a patient, it presented enviable advantages to a writer. He writes
Coda as the cancer clock ticks and the shadow of the grim reaper's scythe falls powerfully
over his already potent prose. In this comic and moving memoir, he is not just penning a
description of a holiday in Crete, he is writing about his last holiday in Crete. Or anywhere.

Parisians 5.5
******In 1787, an obscure French artillery officer, awkward in manner and dress,
wanders Parisian streets and has a brief encounter with a prostitute before returning
to his modest lodgings. He is Napoleon Bonaparte. An architect examines the
subterranean environs of Paris in the late eighteenth century and realizes that large
portions of the city are in danger of collapsing into sinkholes. He is Charles-Axel
Guillaumot, the “Man who Saved Paris.” On an evening in 1791, a foreign born woman
and her guide explore Parisian streets on a clandestine search for an escape route from
the city for herself and her family. She is Marie-Antoinette, and her confusion leads to delay,
exposure, and death for the king and queen. Robb, a biographer who lives in Britain, has
written extensively on France and has a long-term love affair with Paris. In this unique and
thoroughly enjoyable work, he has presented aspects of both the geography and history
of Paris through a series of vignettes built around the personal experiences of historical figures.
He combines the genres of tourist guide and urban history. --Hazel Rochman

Paul Temple and the Tyler Mystery - 2 of 2
******While on patrol outside Oxford, two policemen notice a stolen car parked in a layby.
On further investigation, they discover the dead body of a young woman huddled in the
boot, strangled with a headscarf. Planning a trip to Paris, Paul and Steve Temple have
no intention of becoming involved in the case, dubbed the "Tyler Mystery". But when
Sir Graham Forbes discloses that the main suspect is Harry Shelford, a man Paul put
away for fraud four years previously, the Temples feel compelled to investigate...Crime
novelist and detective, Paul Temple and his glamorous wife, Steve made their first appearance
on BBC Radio in 1938. They inhabited a sophisticated world of chilled cocktails and fast cars,
where the women were chic and the men wore cravats - a world where Sir Graham Forbes, of
Scotland Yard, usually needed Paul Temple's help with his latest tricky case. The radio serials
proved so popular that Francis Durbridge was inspired to write a succession of novels featuring
the smooth sleuth. This thrilling story, read by Buffy and Little Britain star, Anthony Head, sees
Paul putting himself and Steve in grave danger as they attempt to solve a murder.

is travelling to Paris by mail coach carrying rare historical specimens and letters of

with a fellow medical student, Fin.

Pierre Jagot, the notorious Head of the Paris Security Police.
When Lucienne re-enters Daniel's life they embark on a passionate affair. But time is running

weakling like Sidney Telfer is at the head of affairs? They underwrote three concerns
last year that no brokerage business would have touched with a barge-pole, and they
had to take up the shares. One was a lost treasure company to raise a Spanish galleon
that sank three hundred years ago! But what really did happen yesterday morning?'
