There was no going back; there was no choice, anymore. I'd chosen out and this was it: hot-cold, dry-wet, bright-dark and lonely. Hayley has gone rogue.

But what is this new world she's come to? Has Hayley finally found somewhere she can belong? Or will she have to keep running? The thrilling conclusion to Hive from award-winning, internationally bestselling author A. J. Betts BLOGGER PRAISE FOR ROGUE 'Every now and then a book (or series) comes along that completely surprises you, and the second book in The Vault duology, Rogue, is one of those books.'

Shelle Reads Books 'There are warnings and parallels to our lives now running through Rogue and I think that makes it feel all the more real when you are reading it...the ending makes you smile and your heart hum.'

This completely new edition of The Recruiting Officer contains a freshly-edited play text, with new annotations, in modern spelling. Tiffany Stern's comprehensive and engaging introduction discusses the author's career and gives a history of the play including its staging, critical interpretation, date and sources, putting it its context of the late Restoration and illuminating its theatrical vivacity. Farquhar's The Recruiting Officer is set in Shrewsbury in 1704 and describes what happens in a country town when the army come to stay. With cross-dressing and confusion in plenty, this is a comedy exploring the timeless themes of love and war. One of Farquhar's last two plays, The Recruiting Officer is both entertaining and touching. It has a light, humane touch and its original depiction of a real-life provincial town comically explores the impact that ongoing warfare had on its civilian society.
