Roly Carradine has found refuge in Cornwall, in the mellow stone house of his childhood where, in the stream running past the garden, the heron makes his nest. A broken marriage and a terrible burden of guilt made Roly remove himself from his busy London life, and here in Cornwall he welcomes Kate, also seeking refuge from the grief of losing her husband and needing to start afresh, and young Daisy Quin, a dancer recovering from a back injury. Roly's son Nat, a garden designer with his own secret burden to bear, lives not far away and is plagued by the unsympathetic visits of his mother Monica, Roly's ex-wife. Daisy, her burgeoning talent frustrated by her back problems, has been taken up by Mim, Roly's sister and a brilliant ballerina until an accident forced her into early retirement. Living in Bath, Daisy thinks she has found love with the attractive schoolmaster in the nearby flat - but her dreams prove to be false ones. Roly, Kate, Daisy and Nat must all find resolution in the beauty and peace of the Cornish countryside.

Fiction
Two high profile victims – a former left-wing radical turned environmental campaigner and a geneticist researching the possibility of inherited memory – are found murdered within 24 hours of each other. Both men have been scalped.
Forensic tests reveal that single red hairs left at each scene belong to neither victim, but were cut from the same head – twenty years earlier. Jan Fabel and his murder team find themselves under political and media pressure to track down a killer whom the press has already christened “The Hamburg Hairdresser”.
Connections in the victims’ pasts begin to emerge, but Fabel’s team is working against the clock. Fabel is caught in a web of intrigue, obsession and revenge that seemingly spans sixteen centuries. He must discover the crucial link between an ancient mummified body, a long-disbanded terrorist group and its infamous leader and a killer who believes he has been reincarnated to exact a terrible revenge on those who betrayed him in a previous life.

The true story of a hunt for the palest rosé in France.
While in Provence last summer, a French lady mistook a conversation about Jamie Ivey’s niece Rosie for a conversation about rosé. From this misunderstanding sprang the challenge to find the palest rosé in France. This book is the unmissable account of the travels of three diverse personalities – Jamie, his wife Tanya and their ebullient friend Peter – as they search for the palest rosé in France, visiting the main rosé-producing areas: Champagne, the Loire, the Jura, Bordeaux, Dordogne, the Rhône, Provence, Languedoc and Corsica.
