  • THE SLEEP FIX written and read by Diana Macedo - Audio Extract
    Learn how to fix your sleep problems using scientific, practical and surprising solutions.
    From Emmy Award-winning ABC News anchor/correspondent and former insomniac Diane Macedo comes a practical, user-friendly guide to getting better sleep. The Sleep Fix flips the switch on common advice, illuminating the reporter's relentless search for how to get a good night's sleep.
    Roughly 30 per cent of the population is estimated to be living with insomnia, while many more unknowingly suffer from other sleep disorders. In The Sleep Fix, Macedo aims to change that with perspective-shifting research and easy-to-implement solutions based not just on science and experts but also on her own years-long struggle.
    As an early-morning reporter and overnight news anchor, Macedo learned the hard way how valuable sleep is. The longer she struggled, the more her health deteriorated. Desperate, she tried standard sleep tip after standard sleep tip, but nothing worked - instead, it made her worse.
    Finally, after developing a tolerance to sleeping pills, Macedo decided to attack the problem as a journalist, interviewing sleep experts from all over the world to get to the bottom of what really keeps us from sleeping - and the various ways to fix those problems.
    As Macedo explains, the solution to catching zzz's often isn't about giving up caffeine or swearing off screens before bed. With down-to-earth explanations and humour, she instead teaches us how to:
    *Understand sleep biology
    *Identify sleep obstacles
    *Flag sleep myths and separate fact from fiction
    *Try counterintuitive approaches
    *Shift our mindset
    Most importantly, Macedo - a busy working mum - teaches us how to adjust and fit these solutions into our everyday lives. Offering expert wisdom, cutting-edge research, intimate sleep stories from public figures and actionable advice, The Sleep Fix is the tell-it-like-it-is guide that this sleep-deprived world has been waiting for.

  • BEACH MURDER by Michael Ledwidge, read by Neil Hellegers - audiobook extract
    A high-society wedding party stirs up new evidence in an unsolved murder in this explosive and twisting thriller from the number one best-selling co-author of James Patterson's Michael Bennett series. For fans of Lee Child, David Baldacci and Gregg Hurwitz.
    When Terry Rourke is invited to the spare-no-expense beach wedding of his hedge fund manager brother, he thinks that his biggest worry will be flubbing the champagne toast. But this isn't the first time Terry has been to the Hamptons.
    As the designer tuxedos are laid out and the flowers arranged along the glittering surf, Terry can't help but take another look at a decades-old murder trial that rocked the very foundations of the town - and his family. He soon learns that digging up billion-dollar sand can be a very dangerous activity. The kind of danger that can very quickly turn even the most beautiful beach wedding into a wake.

  • THE NIGHT SHE WENT MISSING by Kristen Bird, read by Megan Tusing - audiobook extract
    A gripping debut about the secrets of a close-knit community, perfect for fans of Big Little Lies and Little Fires Everywhere.
    Catherine moved to the close-knit community of Galveston Island to leave the past - and the terrible mistake she made - behind her.
    What she didn't realise was how much influence her mother-in-law, Rosalyn, has over the island and that being a Callahan means having strict standards to uphold.
    She soon meets Morgan, the one woman who seems to get her. But Morgan is still reeling from the former rape accusation against her teenage son, Alex, which left her side-lined from the community.
    Leslie on the other hand is the model Galveston Island citizen, and since the death of her husband she will do anything to ensure her children succeed. But cracks are starting to show behind the perfect veneer.
    When Catherine's teenage daughter, Emily, goes missing after a party, it shakes their world to its core. Everyone looks to their children - or each other's - for someone to blame.
    What really happened the night Emily went missing?
    And who has the most to lose when it comes out?

  • GOOD OMENS: A FULL CAST PRODUCTION by Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett
    A brand-new full-cast audio production of Good Omens, the internationally beloved novel and collaboration by bestselling authors Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. Starring Michael Sheen as Aziraphale, David Tennant as Crowley and Rebecca Front as the Narrator.
    According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies, written in 1655, before she exploded), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before dinner.
    So, the armies of Good and Evil are amassing, Atlantis is rising, frogs are falling, tempers are flaring. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan.
    Except a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon - both of whom have lived amongst Earth's mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle - are not actually looking forward to the coming Rapture.
    And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist....
    Don't miss Season 2 of Good Omens, coming soon to Amazon Prime Video.
