The Will to Power
Thriller von Kata Mlek
Surrounded by second-class colleagues and trapped in his position, brilliant GMO researcher Miran Zyelinski makes a bold plan to steal his employer’s research and set up shop for himself, but he’ll need help. Miran’s lover Andreas can fund the operation, but tolerating his sadism will be part of the price. Ice-cold Satia will bring the technical talent, but only if Miran can keep her satisfied—and keep her from killing Andreas.
Kata Mlek stammt aus Polen, wo sie erfolgreich Verlagsbücher veröffentlicht hat.

The Silence of the Sea
Krimi von Yrsa Sigurðardóttir
A luxury yacht arrives in Reykjavik harbour with nobody on board. What has happened to the crew, and to the family who were on board when it left Lisbon? Thora Gudmundsdottir is hired by the young father’s parents to investigate, and is soon drawn deeper into the mystery. What should she make of the rumours saying that the vessel was cursed, especially given that when she boards the yacht she thinks she sees one of the missing twins? Where is Karitas, the glamorous young wife of the yacht’s former owner? And whose is the body that has washed up further along the shore?
Band 6 der Thora Gudmundsdottir Krimis. „Reading about a mystery whilst at the same time knowing more than the investigators is a familiar device, but the author handles it very well here, ratcheting up the tension as the story switches from Iceland to the yacht, and back again.“ (Leser) (139 Rezensionen / 3,8 Sterne), 433 Seiten noch günstig?

An outsider in more ways than one, Albia has unique insight into life in ancient Rome, and she puts it to good use going places no man could go, and asking questions no man could ask.

Boss of the Diamond-O
Western von Gordon Landsborough
Alan Tring’s murdered father left him in charge of one of the largest horse ranches in Nevada. But no one told him that inheriting a Kingdom this size would not only bring wealth, but with a whole other set of troubles. Luckily, Alan can count on the loyalty of the trusty Diamond-O outfit – Shiner, his childhood companion, the range boss Tex Broome and his father’s right-hand man, Old ‘desert rat’ Timothy. When a developer from the East by the name of O’Dale shows up with plans to build a dam, Alan and his outfit react in the way they know how – with cunning and a whole lot of lead. But O’Dale has his own supporters and Trigger Anson is not a man to be messed with.
