J.A Prescott will be at WHSmith Parc Trostre Retail Park, Llanelli on Saturday 23rd April promoting her new book 'Living for a Reason - A True Cancer Journey'. The author will be signing copies of her book between 11am-3pm. A story on a women's journey as she goes through the stages of cancer and the phases of treatment; the well known mastectomy, the loss of hair, the cosmetic surgery, the chemotherapy and the less well-known side-effects of the drugs.

Roger Openshaw and Adrian Phillips will be signing copies and discussing 'The War That Was Not' at Bennetts Bookshop Massey on Sunday 17th April from 18:00. The story takes place in New Zealand during 1938 at the time of the Munich Crisis. The main characters are Standish Steele, a World War One veteran and stalwart of Wellington Society, and his beautiful wife, Millicent. As the events of 1938 unfold in Wellington against a background of growing unrest in Europe and the vacillation of the British Government, the reader is drawn into a fascinating tale of courage and self-sacrifice, greed, pride and vanity. What might have happened had Great Britain continued with its policy of appeasement and New Zealand alone had declared war on Germany? This is no dry political history, however. Human behaviour at its worst, as well as its best, runs rampant here, with flashbacks to the Great War adding flavour to a satisfying read. With unexpected twists and turns this book will grab readers and hold their attention to the end.
On the 16th of April C. D. Field will be holding a book signing at the Guisborough Bookshop from 11am until 2pm.

Emily wishes she could go to her brother for help, but he's got his own problems to deal with now, that will ultimately lead to a run in with the law. Will Emily be able to stay true to herself and be strong, even when a friend turns against her and she too becomes a victim of bullying? C.D. Field spent her formative years in West Yorkshire indulging her passion for horses, dogs and teaching. Following university, where she read law, management and education, she enjoyed a varied and senior, academic career teaching nationally and internationally for over twenty years.
