Only Cry on Fridays: Escaping Coercive Control A true story
Alice Waite - 2018
To the outside world ours was a perfect marriage and my husband an amusing charismatic man. But behind closed doors life couldn’t have been more different. I had never heard the term, Coercive Control, so for years didn’t understand what was happening to me. With this kind of abuse, there are no bruises to see, but the controlling behaviour behind the scenes was frightening and intimidating. Coercive Control, is a complex tapestry, it is a classless, silent abuse without witnesses. Leaving my marriage of thirty years was the bravest thing I have ever done. The second bravest thing, has been to write my experiences down. My diaries and notes made at the time, languished at the bottom of a drawer for years, then, as the Helen Titchner storyline in The Archers, started to gather pace, with every episode, I became increasingly anxious. My heart would palpitate, my mouth became dry, as I listened to what was so familiar in my own married life. Incentivised to bring this hidden abuse into the public domain, this book chronicles my escape from a coercive controlling marriage and the aftermath which I was so unprepared for. Locations and the names of the guilty have been changed to protect the innocent, whose names have also been changed.

The Jewish Candidate
David Crossland - 2013
After a four year posting in Islamabad, Frank Carver, a reporter for the London Chronicle, is sent to Germany to cover the country’s most fascinating election campaign since the Second World War. Rudolf Gutman, the first Jew to run for chancellor, is promising to free Germany from the shackles of its past. He is up against Hermann von Tietjen, the charismatic Far Right candidate whose mantra is to rid Germany of the threat from its Muslim immigrants. Carver and Wolfgang Renner, a freelance journalist, believe Tietjen has a more deadly agenda. He is secretly guiding Neo-Nazis in a plot to assassinate Gutman, using cash and contacts of old SS men to hire a killer. They prepare the ground with terrorist attacks that are pinned on islamists, sowing fear and hatred of Muslim immigrants.
Carver and Renner race to clinch the scoop of their lives. But no one believes them as Tietjen covers his tracks with his devilish gambit that plunges the nation into terror and a trail of killings. As the clock ticks down to election day and the noose tightens around Gutman’s neck, their quest turns into a lone, bloody struggle for survival that brings them face to face with modern Germany’s dark secret. It seems that Carver has run out of time to unmask the assassin and to save Gutman. 'As the European Union faces a resurgence of the right-wing ultranationalism, veteran journalist David Crossland paints a chilling scenario of the threats posed to contemporary German society by neo-Nazi extremists. A real page-turner.' Efraim Zuroff, The Simon Wiesenthal Center
