The Fifth Witness
Thriller von Michael Connelly
In tough times, crime is one of the few things that still pays, but even criminals are having to make cutbacks. So for defence lawyer Mickey Haller, most of his new business is not about keeping people out of jail; it’s about keeping a roof over their heads as the foreclosure business is booming. Lisa Trammel has been a client of Mickey’s for eight months, and so far he’s stopped the bank from taking her house. But now the bank’s CEO has been found beaten to death – and Lisa is about to be indicted for murder …
Neben den legendären Harry-Bosch-Romanen hat Michael Connelly auch andere, ebenso begeisternde Thriller verfasst. “Connelly does a fantastic job of putting the reader on a rollercoaster ride–one moment the defense is ahead in the murder trial, the next, behind. The ups and downs are believable, and keep the pages turning.” (Leser) (1.580 Rezensionen / 4,6 Sterne), 431 Seiten noch günstig?
The Carter Devereux Mystery Thrillers
Thriller von JC Ryan
Nothing New Under the Sun Carter’s research and exploration into this history takes him to South America, India, and the Middle East, where he makes mind-boggling discoveries which challenge our entire view of human history. The Wolves of Freydis Carter Devereux’s idyllic world had been shattered and catapulted into chaos, and with it, the fate of humanity itself. The Alboran Codex In the year 106 AD, when the Roman legions marched on their capital at Petra, the Nabateans surrendered their empire to the Romans, without a fight, and according to historians ceased to exist. The Nabatean Secret Sentries at the Main Gate of Patch Barracks had turned away the last of the local Fasching revelers an hour or so before, laughingly joking with them that the Barracks were too quiet for their parties.
JC Ryan ist ein australischer Thriller-Autor, dessen Bücher oft einen historischen und archäologischen Hintergrund haben. „It’s suspenseful in the truest sense of the word and there are 2 threads going on at once to keep you fascinated: both the contemporary game of cat and mouse with the evil Orion Society and the mystery of the ancient civilization that may or may not have existed and may or may not be found.“ (Leser) (251 Rezensionen / 4,2 Sterne), 336 Seiten – noch gratis?

Nachdem sie mit ihrem Freund bei der Polizei, Offizier Evan Rogers gesprochen hat, beschließen Mandy und ihr Nachbar Dr. Aaron Nicholson zu helfen, den Mörder aufzufinden. „As a Canadian my favourite scenes are the Canadian stereotypes developed in some of the characters, along with familiar slang! The romance between dreamy Dr. Aaron Nicholson and his beautiful neighbour, Mandy, had me in ‚awe‘ the whole time.“ (Leserin) (12 Rezensionen / 4,6 Sterne), 335 Seiten – noch gratis?

The Outcast Dead
Krimi von Elly Griffiths
Ruth has excavated a body from the grounds of Norwich Castle, which was once a prison. The body may be that of Victorian murderess Jemima Green. Called Mother Hook for her claw-like hand, Jemima was hanged for the murder of five children. DCI Harry Nelson has no time for long-ago killers. Investigating the case of three infants found dead, one after the other, in their King’s Lynn home, he’s convinced that their mother is responsible.
Band 6 der Serie. “The book links Nelson’s investigation into a dead child with Ruth’s discovery of the body of a notorious child killer from the past. The two enquiries are not linked but they shadow each other throughout the book as the author uses the parallel plots to examine issues around children, adultery, childcare and working mothers.” (Leserin) (330 Rezensionen / 4,6 Sterne), 385 Seiten noch günstig?
The Death of Dulgath
Fantasy von Michael J. Sullivan
When the last member of the oldest noble family in Avryn is targeted for assassination, Riyria is hired to foil the plot. Three years have passed since the war-weary mercenary Hadrian and the cynical ex-assassin Royce joined forces to start life as rogues-for-hire. Things have gone well enough until they’re asked to help prevent a murder.
Michael J. Sullivan hat als Selfpublisher angefangen und mit seiner Fantasy schnell die Aufmerksamkeit von Verlagen ausgelöst. Das Buch ist zwar Teil einer Serie, kann aber solo gelesen und genossen werden. “If you have not yet experienced a Royce and Hadrian story, first of all, you should. Clever, interesting characters…nice twists to the story…VERY fun banter…amazing, inventive action. Second, while this is technically the third story in the ‚prequels‘, it is a stand alone story and a perfectly acceptable spot to start.” (Leser) (251 Rezensionen / 4,7 Sterne), 432 Seiten – noch gratis?
Cecil Rhodes, 1853 bis 1902 war ein britischer Unternehmer und Politiker, der starken Einfluss auf die Entwicklung Südafrikas hatte, auch noch lange nach seinem Tod. Der Autor Antony Thomas (* 26. Juli 1940 in Kalkutta, Indien) ist ein britischer Dokumentarfilmer und Journalist. Er ist als Kind nach Kapstadt gekommen und hat die Geschichte von Cecil Rhodes verfolgt. “Thomas helps us to understand Rhodes‘ style of cajoling, negotiating, and ego-building to enable the building of his business and political empire. It seems bribery and undue influence of the media were also routine, practiced by many including Rhodes.” (Leser) (15 Rezensionen / 3,9 Sterne), 368 Seiten – noch gratis?
