The captivating new saga set in turn-of-the-century London by the author of The Best of Sisters ; The Cockney Sparrow ; and Mermaids Singing . From the Hardcover edition.

Arranged marriage meets murder in this gripping mystery set in South London that blends all the twists of a classic whodunnit with humour, heart and cultural authenticity. One of four sisters, south Londoner and British Pakistani Iman Asghar has so far been unlucky in love. So she decides to try an arranged marriage, allowing her widower mum, Raheela, to use a matchmaker to find the perfect husband. With everything planned for the big day, the family gather in their home to welcome her third potential match, Dawud. What isn't planned is Dawud dropping dead in the Asghars' living room. The police rule his death as an accident - a verdict that does little to change the minds of the community, who are convinced that Iman's family murdered her potential match. In a bid to clear her family's name, Iman decides to investigate. And as she gets to know Dawud's extended family and friends, she begins to suspect that his death may not have been an accident after all . . .

A Methuen Student Edition of Chekhov's classic play in Michael Frayn's acclaimed translation. When it first opened in St Petersburg in 1896, The Seagull survived only five performances after a disastrous first opening night. Two years later it was revived by Nemirovich-Danchenko at the newly-founded Moscow Art Theatre with Stanslasky as Trigorin and was an immediate success. Checkhov's description of the play was characteristically self-mocking: "A comedy - 3F, 6M, four acts, rural scenery (a view over a lake); much talk of literature, little action, five bushels of love".Michael Frayn's translation was commissioned by the Oxford Playhouse Company.
