Ten year old Freddie Musgrove spends his youth living by his wits. Born into poverty in the nineteenth century coal mining and ship building town of Tyneside, England, he earns shillings to help support his family by running messages and smuggled goods past customs agents. One night, his mission takes him to the great house at The Towers, where he witnesses a scene of horror he will never forget, one that changes his life forever. In the terrible place, he rescues an unwanted infant, Belle, who grows up to become his beloved wife. Years later, Freddie must again rescue Belle and save his hard won security and happiness from the evils of The Tower. His struggle to escape the dark forces of the past is an enthralling tale of unremitting terror, intertwined lives and lurking madness. --Book jacket.

Book Description
Young Frederick Musgrave was never more agile than when navigating his sculler across the waters of the Tyne between the busy seaports of North and South Shields in 1843. Already his services were in demand as a carrier of messages and certain small packages for those whose activities made them the target of the Customs and Excise men. As well as agile, Freddie was also reckoned to be lucky, but on such a night as brought him to The Towers, the home of Mr Roderick Gallagher, both luck and courage were to be tested to the limit. From that night on, things really began to happen to Freddie, and the best of them came when he gained the friendship and patronage of Miss Maggie Hewitt, who was to play a major role in shaping his life and fortunes. But he would still need all his luck and resourcefulness to escape the long shadow cast by Roderick Gallagher, whose power and influence threatened all who crossed his path... THE HARROGATE SECRET--one of Catherine Cookson's most powerful novels, is a tale imbued with the very spirit of old Tyneside, and rises to a climax as suspenseful and exciting as any she has devised.

Book Description
The hilarious, feel-good, romantic comedy debut novel from No. 1 bestselling author Robert Bryndza. 'Crime thrillers and romantic comedy, both--who knew?! Had me belly laughing just as hard as I bite my nails when I read his suspense novels. Bryndza is a multi-talented writer!' Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Coco Pinchard has just turned forty, and is feeling fabulous. Her long-held dream to be a writer has been realised, with the publication of her debut novel, her son, Rosencrantz, is attending a prestigious London drama school, and her musician husband, Daniel, seems more in love with her than ever. Coco feels poised to enter an exciting new chapter in life. When the New Year dawns after a hideous Christmas spent with her awful in-laws, Coco catches Daniel in bed with a younger woman, her novel flops, and Rosencrantz goes spectacularly off the rails. As her once-happy life unravels, and any chance of an exciting new chapter recedes into the distance, Coco's new iPhone becomes her confessional. Through emails to loyal friends Christopher, a neurotic middle-aged socialite, and Marika, a slightly alcoholic schoolteacher, Coco begins to document her seemingly endless (and often hilarious) run of bad luck. When Coco reaches the top of the local allotment list (after putting her name down nineteen years previously) she meets the drop-dead gorgeous Adam, and she's back in the world of dating as a single forty-something. Read the emails that tell the hilarious, feel-good tale of Coco picking up the pieces! Fans of rom coms by Sophie Kinsella will be glued to the pages of this totally addictive page-turner. Readers totally love The Not So Secret Emails of Coco Pinchard: 'Joyful and fun!' Netgalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Bryndza can turn his hand to both crime thrillers and comedy!' Joanne Robertson, My Chestnut Reading Tree, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'It's exactly what it claims to be. Funny, feel-good, you will want to know more about Coco!' Netgalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Robert Bryndza writes stories that make you want to pick up your E-Reader and just read all night long. It's some talent that can draw you in like that. On to Coco Pinchard #2!' Netgalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'A great book filled with laughs, brilliant characters, an engaging plot and a very clever use of emails as a writing style.' Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'An utterly brilliant look into Coco's world through her eyes and an introduction to some wonderful characters.' Netgalley reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
