      Grief is universal, but it's also as unique to each of us as the person we've lost. It can be overwhelming, exhausting, lonely, unreasonable, there when we least expect it and seemingly never-ending. Wherever you are with your grief and whoever you're grieving for, I Promise It Won't Always Hurt Like This is here to support you. To tell you, until you believe it, that things will get easier.When bestselling writer Clare Mackintosh lost her five-week-old son, she searched for help in books. All of them wanted to tell her what she should be feeling and when she should be feeling it, but the truth - as she soon found out - is that there are no neat, labelled stages for grief, or crash grief-diets to relieve us of our pain. What we need when we're grieving is time and understanding. I Promise It Won't Always Hurt Like This is the book she needed then.With 18 short assurances that are full of compassion - drawn from Clare's experiences of losing her son and her father - it's something you can turn to when you can barely concentrate, when you're looking for solace, when you're looking for hope, when you simply need to throw something across the floor, and when you need somebody to assure you, and to keep assuring you: I Promise It Won't Always Hurt Like This.

      "How far would you go to protect your daughter? Four mothers must identify the true threat at their daughters' school before it's too late. Carolyn, Bronnie, Elise, and Kendall are bound together by one thing--their four daughters are best friends at the highly competitive Orla Flynn Academy for the Performing Arts. Last year the foursome exploded because of brutal bullying between the girls, but they've since forgiven each other. The mothers, however, haven't been able to move on. When new threats surface and accidents begin to happen - just as a mysterious new girl enters the scene - the mothers take matters into their own hands. But they will have to risk their own secrets being exposed if they stand a chance at uncovering the truth."--Provided by publisher

      Jenna Grayová prežila to, čo nikto prežiť nechce. V jedno daždivé popoludnie sa synček vytrhne mame z ruky a uteká na cestu. Zrazí ho auto... Tragédia Jennu zničí. Aby vôbec prežila, presťahuje sa do vzdialeného kúta vetrom bičovaného Walesu a v prostej chalupe sa pokúša zabudnúť. Chce utiecť spomienke na smrť chlapčeka, zúfalo sa potrebuje spamätať a nechať za sebou celú minulosť. Zároveň sledujeme dvoch policajných vyšetrovateľov z Bristolu, ktorým smrť malého chlapca nedá pokoj. Sledujú stopy, jednu beznádejnejšiu ako druhú, a zisťujú, že ich to k sebe ťahá rovnako neodolateľne, ako ich fascinuje nepreniknuteľný prípad, plný nečakaných zvratov.
