For her, there’s no greater calling than equipping people to fight the worst of their demons. But she’s never allowed anyone to help her fight her own. She’s kept her distance.

They offer guidance on how to make those encounters real, whether they be between people or between institutions and the people they serve.

Brought to you by Penguin. A sumptuously cosy seasonal love story set in sparkling New York, from the queen of the 'what if?' romance Josie Silver. Isla's vibrant childhood was filled with bands, noise and travel, thanks to her mum Vivien being an 80s music icon. Vivien might not have been much...
