The gunboat moored below the dock wall was painted a drab grey. It was christened H.M.S Seagull. The converted First World War German gunboat, first launched in 1918, was still going strong two decades later. The novel Seagull tells the exciting story of the action this converted German gunboat now faces in World War II under the command of the British Royal Navy, which needs it to blow up oil installations and ships in the Norwegian Fjords. Seagull is purely fiction, but its timeless story is based on and dedicated to the men who served bravely in small boats during and after the war. These men fought the enemy on a daily basis and faced danger without expecting favours or special treatment. They are true heroes. Says the author, "I would also like to thank some of those men who gave me their stories who are all gone now, but will never be forgotten by their loved ones." About the Author Now retired, Ronald Botham served in the Royal Army from 1947 until early 1950, first in the Royal Army Service Corps and later in the Royal Artillery as a radio operator observer in aircraft. He was born in West Hartlepool in County Durham, England. The author currently lives in Salford in Manchester, England. Publisher's website: http: //sbprabooks.com/RonaldBotham

For fans of Eowyn Ivey, Rose Tremaine, and Kate Atkinson, The Orphan of Salt Winds is a bewitching debut about the secrets that haunt us. England, 1939. Ten-year-old Virginia Wrathmell arrives at Salt Winds, a secluded house on the edge of a marsh, to meet her adoptive parents—practical, dependable Clem and glamorous, mercurial Lorna. The marsh, with its deceptive tides, is a beautiful but threatening place. Virginia’s new parents’ marriage is full of secrets and tensions she doesn’t quite understand, and their wealthy neighbor, Max Deering, drops by too often, taking an unwholesome interest in the family’s affairs. Only Clem offers a true sense of home. War feels far away among the birds and shifting sands—until the day a German fighter plane crashes into the marsh, and Clem ventures out to rescue the airman. What happens next sets into motion a crime so devastating it will haunt Virginia for the rest of her life. Seventy-five years later, she finds herself drawn back to the marsh, and to a teenage girl who appears there, nearly frozen and burdened by her own secrets. In her, Virginia might have a chance at retribution and a way to right a grave mistake she made as a child. Elizabeth Brooks’s gripping debut mirrors its marshy landscape—full of twists and turns and moored in a tangle of family secrets. A gothic, psychological mystery and atmospheric coming-of-age story, The Orphan of Salt Winds is the portrait of a woman haunted by the place she calls home.
