DOG’S BEST FRIEND Simon Garfield
SHIVER Allie Reynolds
Dogs and humans: in the last 200 years no interspecies relationship has developed so fast nor come so far. How and why did this relationship begin? How has it changed over the centuries? Dog’s Best Friend investigates this unique bond by revisiting some of the most important milestones in our shared journey. It begins with the earliest visual evidence on ancient rock art and ends at the laboratory that sequenced the first dog genome.
Five friends reunite after 10 years since the disappearance of the beautiful and enigmatic Saskia. When an icebreaker game turns menacing, they realise they don’t know who has really gathered them there and how far they will go to find the truth. In an isolated lodge high up a mountain, amid a looming snowstorm, the secrets of the past are about to come to light.

RISE Mark Bouris
WHY WOULDN’T YA? Jess Eva
At a time of ultimate global disruption, who better to guide us as we re-set our goals and our lives than Mark Bouris, one of Australia’s most respected mentors and business leaders. Mark is the host of The Mentor podcast, as well as The Apprentice and The Celebrity Apprentice.
Jess Eva wants you to change your life. She can’t promise to make you rich, quick-fix your relationships or help you lose weight. But she is going to show how to relax, get out of your own head (and others’) and start to see life as one big adventure. As Jess will show you, through her humour, mad stories and down-toearth wisdom, the worst that could happen is you’ll end up with a bloody good story to tell.
‘Anyone can better themselves, better their life, better their situation. You’ve got to think big. People have lost faith in the system, it’s time to empower yourself.’
