Within a quirky neighbourhood the body of a judge is found trussed up as a scarecrow suggesting the characters and events within that community hide darker secrets in Lauren Williams' debut novel, ‘Neighbourhood Watch’.

The complexity of growing up: learning about yourself, changing friendships, and if tragedy happens knowing what to do is all in ‘Tight Lines’ as well as dares, humour, surfing and fishing, very well told by Allee Richards.
