The Sister Under The Stairs

A chilling psychological thriller from New York Times bestselling author Steena Holmes

“It’s a miracle I am alive, they say.
I say miracles don’t happen in today’s world.”

Twelve years ago, Jess vanished without a trace.

Each year since, Paige, her twin sister receives a bouquet of flowers and a note that simply says: I’m sorry.

Until the day she gets a text that changes everything: I found her.

Desperate for answers, she follows the trail—only to realize she’s walking straight into a labyrinth.

Someone knows what happened that night. Someone has been waiting for her to come looking.
And the truth is far darker than she ever imagined.

A missing twin. A guilty sister. A secret that refuses to stay buried.

Tense and addictive from the very first page—Steena Holmes delivers twist after twist until the final, devastating reveal.

Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Daniel Hurst, Lucy Clarke, Lucy Foley, Shari Lapena, T.M. Logan and Clare Mackintosh.

Evolve

Intuition—our mental shortcut for navigating the world!

But … could it also lead to blind spots? Is it possible that we might get stuck in ‘the way we’ve always done things’ and miss growth opportunities?

Hence Evolve!

This book is about counterintuitive thinking, about the art of questioning assumptions and embracing strategies that might seem strange at first. It is about looking beyond common sense.

Counterintuitive thinking jolts us out of comfort-zone, igniting fresh ideas that unlock hidden opportunities. It equips us to see what others miss, giving us a competitive edge through innovation and sharper decision-making.

Evolve: 49 Counterintuitive Principles for Business offers a practical toolkit for applying these principles in your own business. It explores research-backed and experience-tested ideas from psychology, economics, geopolitics, business, philosophy, technology and sociology, all presented in a clear and actionable way.

Result-oriented and pragmatic, it is the secret sauce you need…

Unruly

Why don’t woodpeckers get headaches?
Can condiments solve our energy crisis?
How many people pick their nose?

Believe it or not, these questions come straight from prize-winning research—and the surprising, tender and wonderfully misunderstood world of the Ig Nobel Prizes.

Unruly tours the Ig universe: nominating letters full of chaos and charm, debates that run longer than the calculated time, last-minute reversals, breakthroughs once belittled and the quiet elegance of a prize that allows us to laugh first and think later.

This delightful book also gathers the unseen bits of science; stories usually scrawled in margins. Each page holds crisp irreverence and a deep affection for the accidents, detours and stubborn hope behind a life in science.

Funny, unhinged and quietly radical, this book is an ordinary thinker’s love letter to weird science, weirder scientists and the curiosity that tugs at us long after the hilarity fades.

Aghori Hindi / अघोरी

अघोरी : एक अनकही कहानी एक अनोखी, रहस्यपूर्ण और आध्यात्मिक यात्रा है, जो पाठक को मानव मन, साधना, भय और मुक्ति के उन अनदेखे प्रदेशों में ले जाती है, जहाँ सामान्य जीवन की पहुँच बहुत कम होती है। मयूर कलबाग की यह पुस्तक केवल अघोरियों की कठोर और अद्भुत साधना को उजागर नहीं करती, बल्कि यह बताती है कि भय, अंधकार और मृत्यु जैसी अवधारणाएँ वास्तव में आत्म-जागरण का मार्ग भी बन सकती हैं।
कहानी एक जिज्ञासु साधक की यात्रा के माध्यम से शुरू होती है, जो हिमालय की कठिन घाटियों, श्मशानों और गहन मौन से गुज़रते हुए अघोरियों की तपस्या और उनके आध्यात्मिक विज्ञान को समझने की कोशिश करता है। पुस्तक में दर्शाया गया हर अध्याय व्यक्ति को अपने भीतर छिपे भय, भ्रम और सीमाओं के पार जाने की प्रेरणा देता है। यह केवल एक कहानी नहीं, बल्कि आत्म-परिवर्तन, त्याग, साहस और आध्यात्मिक शक्ति की खोज का दस्तावेज़ है।

Half of Forever

We spend our lives searching for forever
believing it must arrive whole and uninterrupted . . .

But what if forever is not measured in time, but in depth? What if forever is not always something we arrive at, but something we get to touch?

A few chance meetings draw Ravin and Heer into each other’s orbits. What begins as an unplanned crossing of lives slowly grows into something neither of them intended. However, they must now decide what the future holds for them—because love, this time, comes at a heavy cost.

Half of Forever is a reflection on the kind of love that alters the shape of a life by simply being felt. It also brings Ravin’s love trilogy to a quiet close, following I Too Had a Love Story and Can Love Happen Twice?—three journeys, one evolving heart.

Winning People Without Losing Yourself

Growing up, I believed life was about skills and degrees.
Until I entered the real world and realized something uncomfortable.
My skills mattered far less than my ability to deal with people.
Somewhere along the way, I was simply tired.
Of trying to make it work with people.
I was struggling to answer: How do you deal
with people without losing yourself?
Most books teach you how to manage your
mind. Very few teach you how to navigate
other humans. This one does.

It is a collection of sharp, lived truths about how people behave, why they behave that way, and how you can respond with clarity instead of chaos.

One page. One insight. Start from any page.

Learn something every time

If people overwhelm you, this book will calm you.

If people confuse you, this book will guide you.

If people exhaust you, this book will steady you.

If you are scared to deal with people, this book will feel like a warm hug.

You got this <3

Vikram and Betaal

Vikram Chauhan, a brilliant fintech entrepreneur with no belief in the supernatural, is at the peak of his Silicon Valley career. But when his wife, Meera, is diagnosed with terminal cancer, his world collapses. He abandons everything to chase a cure at any cost. His desperate search leads him to the whispers of a hidden temple in the remote town of Gresham, Rajasthan, said to perform miraculous healings.
But Gresham hides darker truths. On the ominous night of the Blood Moon, Vikram is brought before the temple’s enigmatic high priest, who offers him a single, terrifying bargain: salvation for Meera, in exchange for capturing the ancient pishach—Betaal.
Bound by an otherworldly oath to Vikram’s bloodline, the pishach draws him into a harrowing cycle of encounters. Each time Vikram closes in, Betaal tells the story of its current host and poses a riddle that tests his morality, forcing him to confront the limits of love, logic, and faith.
As Meera’s time slips away and the curse of his lineage resurfaces, Vikram must face an impossible question: how much of his humanity is he willing to sacrifice to save the woman he loves?

Vikram and Betaal: Night of the Blood Moon plunges into a world where ancient folklore collides with modern reason, a haunting tale of love, legacy, and the darkness that binds them both.
