THE
MARKET
An Officer and a Spy Robert Harris anuary 1895. On a freezing morning in the heart of Paris, an army officer, Georges Picquart, witnesses a convicted spy, Captain Alfred Dreyfus, being publicly humiliated in front of twenty thousand spectators baying ‘Death to the Jew!’ The officer is rewarded with promotion: Picquart is made the French army’s youngest colonel and put in command of ‘the Statistical Section’ - the shadowy intelligence unit that tracked down Dreyfus. The spy, meanwhile, is given a punishment of medieval cruelty: Dreyfus is shipped off to a lifetime of solitary confinement on Devil’s Island - unable to speak to anyone, not even his guards, his case seems closed forever. But gradually Picquart comes to believe there is something rotten at the heart of the Statistical Section. When he discovers another German spy operating on French soil, his superiors are oddly reluctant to pursue it. Despite official warnings, Picquart persists, and soon the officer and the spy are in the same predicament. Narrated by Picquart, An Officer and a Spy is a compelling recreation of a scandal that became the most famous miscarriage of justice in history. Compelling, too, are the echoes for our modern world: an intelligence agency gone rogue, justice corrupted in the name of national
J
security, a newspaper witch-hunt of a persecuted minority, and the age-old instinct of those in power to cover-up their crimes.
Mad About You
Sinead Moriarty inead Moriarty’s riveting novel, Mad About You, makes you stop and think about the importance of trust in relationships - how fragile it can be, how easily damaged, how hard to repair. Sinead combines the storytelling genius of Jodi Picoult, and the compassion and humour of Marian Keyes, in a gripping story of contemporary marriage. Emma and James Hamilton have weathered lots of storms in their ten-year marriage. From the heartbreak of infertility, to the craziness of then becoming parents to two babies in one year, to coping with James losing his job, somehow they have always worked as a team. However, the pressure of moving for James’ new job puts them under stress like never before. So when James starts getting texts from a stranger - texts that show startling insights into their lives - Emma is not sure what to think. She is far from home, isolated and before long finds herself questioning everything about their relationship. Somehow she has to get a grip, but how can she do that when a stranger seems set on driving Emma out of her home and her marriage?

Belmont House Veterinary Surgery A GUIDE TO TICKS
T
by Kate Ward MA VetMB MRCVS he very word “tick” makes most people feel a bit squeamish and itchy; they can be an unpleasant feature of countryside walks for many pets (and even people!) These creepy crawlies are blue-grey or brown in colour and vary from the size of a pin-head to the size of a drawing pin. Whilst many people mistake them for a lump or cyst, ticks can be identified by their 3 or 4 pairs of tiny legs. You’re most likely to see them between late spring through to late autumn but we see them in winter too, if the weather is mild. Ticks crawl up onto a warm animal and attach themselves to the skin with their special sharp mouth parts and then feed on blood. It’s important to be on the lookout for them because not only can they can be irritating to our pets but they may be carrying diseases too. If you find a tick on your pet you can remove it gently with a special “tick hook” or a pair of tweezers by grasping it close to the skin and using a twist and pull motion. You must make sure you remove the whole tick including the mouth parts. NEVER – pull the tick straight out – it will probably leave its mouth part behind and this can cause inflammation or a little infection in the skin. NEVER – put alcohol or Vaseline on the tick – this can make it release any infection it may be carrying. Prevention is a good idea. Some of the spot-on treatments that we use for fleas will kill or repel ticks – check with your vet, or on the packet. If you are travelling to Europe with your dog then using a good method of control is even more important since ticks on the continent can carry parasites which damage a dog’s red blood cells and can make them very sick.

Hopefully we will be blessed with some sun this summer. At which point the evening air will be rich with the smell of burning charcoal, (and quite possibly food!) as the barbecues are fired up! As no BBQ is complete without burgers, we have included this delicious recipe. If you enjoy this, I would recommend buying a burger press. They are very cheap but shape great burgers and use greaseproof paper burger discs to separate the burgers - ideal for est in a v n I freezing the extra ones. reat for

press. G burgers making cakes and fish
INGREDIENTS 1kg chuck steak minced Chopped sage and coriander 1 Onion chopped 1 tbsp Tomato Ketchup 1 egg yolk 70g Bread crumbs
METHOD 1. Firstly fry the onion, then add the sage and coriander. Finally add the bread crumbs. 2. In a separate bowl prepare the mince. 3. Season the mince with salt and pepper, and add the ketchup. 4. Add half the onion and bread crumb mix. 5. Blitz the remaining half of the bread crumb mix in a food processor. 6. Combine this with the mince. Be careful not to over-work the
mince. It needs to retain its texture. 7. Add the egg yolk - this will help bind the mixture. Making the pates 1. Roll the mixture into balls. 2. Between two pieces of greaseproof paper flatten the balls to make a burger / pate shape. 3. In a pan (not too hot) fry your burgers to your preferred level ie a little pink inside or well done, etc. 4. As the burger finishes cooking put some cheese on top, so that it melts over the burger. To serve add bacon, onion, salad or whatever you prefer.
