Readers of historical fiction should enjoy A Tapestry of Treason by Anne O'Brien.
It's set in 1399 and features Constance of York, and features treason, heartbreak and betrayal. This is the story of a woman ahead of her time, fighting for herself and what she believed to be right in a world of men.
"Electrifying and filled with masterful suspense" is the new novel by Val McDermid How the Dead Speak, a thriller with Tony Hill and Carol Jordan. Or you could try a novel by Australian author Sonia Orchard Into the Fire described as "a perceptive, provoking story of friendship and intimacy".
The library staff have been delivering bags of books to shop-bound members, who cannot leave their shops to change their items.
