When Poppy’s school asks for toy donations to send to Malawi, she knows just the thing - a cuddly blue stegosaurus called Alan. I mean, who wouldn't love a cuddly blue stegosaurus called Alan? Poppy certainly did. But giving away a toy is one thing, giving away a friend is quite another.
The Correspondence of Alan Bush and John Ireland
John Ireland (1879-1962) had a long and close friendship with Alan Bush (1900-1995) which lasted forty years, from 1922, when John Ireland was already fifty years old, until Ireland's death in 1962. It was the relationship of master and pupil and this was clearly reflected in their letters. The two men came to know each other well once Bush had left the Royal Academy of Music in 1922 and became a student of composition with Ireland until 1927. 160 letters are published here for the first time and they provide not only a compelling and engaging narrative, but also a unique insight into the musical and day-to-day lives of the two men. The letters were written during a most interesting and turbulent period in British history: the inter-war period of the 1920s and 30s, the situation during the Second World War and the post-war era. The volume will therefore appeal to those interested in wider aspects of British musical life and social and political history, as well as followers of Ireland and Bush.

The naked body of a strangled man is discovered in a house in Amiens in 1917, and the British Army can't find out who he is or who the murderer is. So they turn to Scotland Yard to cover their backs. Detective Constable Alan McGill and his superior, Inspector Brown, find themselves in France on what seems to be a fools' errand. McGill has other ideas though, and when he suddenly finds himself promoted to Inspector, he determines to solve the mystery. The deeper he delves, the more danger he has to confront, and then, with the mystery solved, he faces a final, deeply disturbing truth.

Alan Turing (1912–1954) was the mathematician credited with cracking the German Enigma code during World War II, enabling the Allies to defeat the Nazis. After the war, Turing went on to launch modern computer science through his creation of the universal Turing machine and the Imitation Game, an artificial-intelligence test that is still in use today. Turing kept his code-breaking work a secret in order to safeguard his native England, but failed to hide his sexual preferences, which led to his tragic death at the hands of the same country he worked so hard to protect. Jim Ottaviani and Leland Purvis show Turing to be an eccentric, persecuted genius and a groundbreaking theoretician whose seminal work still plays a role in the science and telecommunication systems that fuel our modern world.

THE DEATH OF ALAN CHANDLER Lilly Chandler is serene; little ruffles the waters of her life, whereas her husband, Alan, suffers recurring anxiety attacks. Drawn together in college they tacitly agreed to ask few questions of the others past. As Alan once wondered, was the waters of Lilly's soul so deep he could not measure it, or was his lead line simply coiling up in shallow but murky waters? After a late night domestic fight, during which Lilly launched most of their best china at Alan, he takes off for their cabin at Red Lake. In the early morning hours he careens off the road in an attempt to save an errant deer's life. His car is submerged and he is swept away. Lilly Chandler awakes with a bad hangover, blood on the kitchen floor, and a missing husband. When Alan fails to return, she is forced to deal with her natural inclination to ignore troubles and hope they will go away. She reports him as missing to the police. When his boss calls she lies and tells him that her husband is sick. A police dispatcher notices her conflicting stories. Filling in for a detective who is on sick leave, Sgt. Ray Maddox investigates. Circumstantial evidence rapidly accumulates that Alan may be the victim of murder.
