Blakemore<\/strong><\/p>\n It is 1381. England, reeling from plague and years of conflict abroad, is a tinderbox waiting to spark. Two childhood friends ride into the town of Brentwood, Essex, where they come upon an altercation with a local Justice bent on squeezing more coin from the masses. <\/p>\n Thus begins a rebellion of the common folk – loyal to the king, but not to those wealthy landowners who curtail their freedoms; the multitude finding cause against the powers that threaten their livelihoods.<\/p>\n Set over sixteen days, Doom Painting roves across England as the revolt grows and swells and the rebels march to London to take their demands to the child-king Richard II. Out of the rebellion emerges its enigmatic and charismatic leader Wat Tyler, an opportunistic and mercurial rogue whose morality is birthed by the cause, and who shapes an identity for the English which has never been lost.<\/p>\n Borrow Doom Painting<\/em>\u00a0\u2192<\/a>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/suffolkcommunitylibraries.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Murder-at-the-Grand-Alpine-Hotel.jpg” alt=”Murder at the Grand Alpine Hotel” title_text=”Murder at the Grand Alpine Hotel” url=”https:\/\/suffolk.borrowbox.com\/product\/BOL_9076852\/title\/murder-at-the-grand-alpine-hotel” url_new_window=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.9″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.9″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”19px” text_line_height=”1.3em” link_font_size=”19px” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Lucy Foley<\/strong><\/p>\n High in the Swiss Alps, with glorious mountain views and exclusive access to powdery slopes, the Grand Alpine Hotel draws guests from far and wide.<\/p>\n But when a guest enters a gondola alive, only to be found dead at the top of the mountain, it\u2019s clear there\u2019s a killer in their midst.<\/p>\n As tensions rise, and old grudges emerge like cracks in the ice, someone watches from the shadows.
