"Der große Bestsellerroman aus Irland - warmherzig, witzig und wahnsinnig authentisch schreibt Caroline O'Donoghue über das Lebensgefühl der Millennials in Cork. Eine außergewöhnliche Geschichte über Freundschaft, die Suche nach sich selbst und den Rausch der ersten Beziehungen.
Als die junge Studentin Rachel während ihres Nebenjobs im Buchladen auf James trifft, ist es Freundschaft auf den ersten Blick. Der temperamentvolle James lädt Rachel sofort ein, seine Mitbewohnerin zu werden. Um wiederum Rachels angebeteten Literaturprofessor Dr. Fred Byrne näherzukommen und ihn zu verführen, organisieren James und Rachel eine Lesung im Buchladen, die sich am Ende ganz anders entwickelt als gedacht. Denn Fred Byrne verfolgt seine eigenen Interessen. Und so verstricken sich die Leben dieser drei Menschen vor dem Hintergrund der Finanzkrise in Cork immer rasanter ineinander.
Die Sache mit Rachel ist ein absolut außergewöhnlicher Roman über eine große Freundschaft, über das Sich-finden-Wollen und die Achterbahn der ersten Beziehungen. Ein Roman darüber, wie wir sein und wie wir lieben wollen."

'Funny, lovely, romantic, drenched in nostalgia' MARIAN KEYES
The Rachel Incident is an all-consuming love story. But it's not the one you're expecting. It's unconventional and messy. It's young and foolish. It's about losing and finding yourself. But it is always about love.
When Rachel falls in love with her married professor, Dr Byrne, her best friend James helps her devise a plan to seduce him. But what begins as a harmless crush soon pushes their friendship to its limits. Over the course of a year they will find their lives ever more entwined with the Byrnes' and be faced with impossible choices and a lie that can't be taken back...

"The final book in the spellbinding All Our Hidden Gifts series from New York Times bestseller Caroline O’Donoghue.
With the return of the Housekeeper on the cards, Maeve must find out everything she can about the vengeful tarot spirit in order to finally defeat her. Crossing over into a parallel dimension inside the old school building, she explores the history of the Housekeeper – and spends too long in a world and a mind not her own.
With the Children of Brigid closing in once more, and Maeve's friend group now fractured across Ireland, can they hope to ultimately save the town – and Maeve – from the grip of a power greater than they ever imagined?
“Makes magic feel real, and perfectly captures the angst and yearning and joy of teenage years. A sensational finish to a spectacular series.” - Katherine Webber, author of The Revelry"
"Esoterismo, ingenio y misticismo...
Una lectura mágica.
Las sagaces lecturas del tarot de Maeve la convierten en la comidilla del colegio, hasta que una compañera de clase saca una carta escalofriante y desconocida... Y después desaparece."
"Vier Teens. Vier übersinnliche Gaben. Eine große Gefahr. Spannende Urban Fantasy voll düsterer Überraschungen. Seit Maeve, Roe und Fiona mithilfe der Tarotkarten die verschwundene Lily zurückgeholt haben, ist vieles anders. Nicht mehr nur Maeve verfügt über eine Gabe. Auch die anderen drei haben jetzt magische Fähigkeiten, die sie im Laufe des Sommers immer besser beherrschen. Und das ist auch nötig. Denn die Kinder Brigids, die christliche Organisation mit der übersinnlichen Agenda, gewinnen an Einfluss. Mit ihren reaktionären Ideen unterwandern sie Maeves Schule. Doch sie haben es vor allem auf die vier 'Hexen' abgesehen. Denn Magie ist Macht - und wer sie besitzt, bestimmt vielleicht über die Welt."
"Faszinierend, übersinnlich, unheimlich - diese Tarotkarten öffnen die Tür in eine dunkle Welt.
Maeve Chambers ist eine Idiotin - zumindest verglichen mit ihrer Familie voller Genies. Und weil sie ihre Kindheitsfreundin Lily vergrault hat. Erst als sie im Schulkeller ein Tarotkartenspiel findet, zeigt sich ihr wahres Talent. Denn quasi über Nacht macht sie den Mädchen aus ihrer Klasse beängstigend genaue Vorhersagen. Dann verschwindet Lily, nachdem Maeve ihr ungefragt die Karten legt. Schnell wird klar, dass übernatürliche Kräfte im Spiel sind. Und es braucht besondere Talente, um Lily zu retten. Zusammen mit Lilys nichtbinärem Bruder Roe und Mitschülerin Fiona begibt sich Maeve auf eine gefährliche Suche."
"Magic-sensitive Maeve and her friends face off against an insidious threat to their school and their city in this spellbinding sequel to All Our Hidden Gifts.
It's senior year, and Maeve and her friends are practicing and strengthening their mystical powers, while Maeve's new relationship with Roe is exhilarating. But as Roe's rock star dreams start to take shape, and Fiona and Lily make plans for faraway colleges, Maeve, who struggles in school, worries about life without them--will she be selling incense here in Kilbeg, Ireland, until she's fifty? Alarm bells sound for the coven when the Children of Brigid, a right-wing religious organization, quickly gains influence throughout the city--and then its charismatic front man starts visiting Maeve in her dreams. When Maeve's power starts to wane, the friends realize that all the local magic is being drained--or rather, stolen. With lines increasingly blurred between friend and foe, the supernatural and the psychological, Maeve and the others must band together to protect the place, and the people, they love."
"Maeve's strangely astute tarot readings make her the talk of the school, until a classmate draws a chilling and unfamiliar card--and then disappears.
After Maeve finds a pack of tarot cards while cleaning out a closet during her in-school suspension, she quickly becomes the most sought-after diviner at St. Bernadette's Catholic school. But when Maeve's ex-best friend, Lily, draws an unsettling card called The Housekeeper that Maeve has never seen before, the session devolves into a heated argument that ends with Maeve wishing aloud that Lily would disappear. When Lily isn't at school the next Monday, Maeve learns her ex-friend has vanished without a trace.
Shunned by her classmates and struggling to preserve a fledgling romance with Lily's gender-fluid sibling, Roe, Maeve must dig deep into her connection with the cards to search for clues the police cannot find--even if they lead to the terrifying Housekeeper herself. Set in an Irish town where the church's tight hold has loosened and new freedoms are trying to take root, this sharply contemporary story is witty, gripping, and tinged with mysticism."
"Charlie Regan is going back to her roots.
Her career as a filmmaker is on standby, she hasn't had a girlfriend in forever, her best friend is sickeningly successful (and being awkward since that night) and her dad is dying of cancer. So the invitation from Cork Film Festival comes like a sign - a chance to explore the Irish homeland she's never seen. But this isn't just any search for long-lost ancestry: Charlie's father is the sole survivor of a tragic accident that killed every other child on the small island where he grew up, and Charlie's one achievement is the film she made that tells his story.
It's only when she arrives in Ireland that she fears his story may have been a lie.
The site of the tragedy yields suspicious clues. The friendly locals turn hostile. And what felt like her heritage - her home - starts to become a trap.
With a sharp eye and sour tongue, Caroline O'Donoghue delivers a delicious contemporary fable of prodigal return. Blisteringly honest, funny and moving, it grapples with Irishness, authenticity, and how to define yourself when you don't know your history."

'So brilliant ... I highly recommend it' Dolly Alderton
'I loved it. The writing is whipsmart and so witty' Marian Keyes
Jane Peters is an adrift twenty-something by day, and a world-weary agony aunt by night. But when an office party goes too far, Jane dissolves into the high-stakes world of being the Other Woman: a role she has the right advice for, but not the smarts to follow through on.
What starts out as a drunken mistake quickly unravels as Jane discovers that sex and power go hand-in-hand, and that it's hard to keep your head when you've become someone else's dirty little secret. And soon, her friendships, her sanity and even her life are put into jeopardy...
