Thirteen years later, Bosch is back in the Open Unsolved Crimes Unit when he gets a call from the DA’s office. A man accused of two killings is willing to confess to several other murders in a deal to avoid the death penalty. One of his victims, he says, is Marie Gesto.

Rest assured you will be blown away by the plot as you progress through the book and be stunned and yet completely satisfied by the solution of yet another fantastic Harry Bosch novel.” (Leser) (912 Rezensionen / 4,6 Sterne), 417 Seiten noch günstig?

Biografie von James Herriot
Fresh out of Glasgow Veterinary College, to the young James Herriot 1930s Yorkshire seems to offer an idyllic pocket of rural life in a rapidly changing world. But from his erratic new colleagues, brothers Siegfried and Tristan Farnon, to incomprehensible farmers, herds of semi-feral cattle, a pig called Nugent and an overweight Pekingese called Tricki Woo, James finds he is on a learning curve as steep as the hills around him. And when he meets Helen, the beautiful daughter of a local farmer, all the training and experience in the world can’t help him …

Die Geschichten aus seinem Beruf sind sehr unterhaltsam und längst Klassiker. “From the smells, the cold dank air, the expressions of the people, and the warmth of a fire- everything is so well written, it’s as if I step back into a simpler time and laugh about life’s unchanging ironies. What a pleasure to read!!” (Leser) (1.142 Rezensionen / 4,8 Sterne), 561 Seiten noch günstig?

John Murray war im 2. Weltkrieg in der britischen Botschaft in Moskau und hat sich in die Spionin Nora Korzhenko, seine spätere Ehefrau Nora Murray verliebt. Auf eine komplizierte und gefährliche Art, aber sogar mit der Unterstützung von Stalin ist es ihnen gelungen, nach England zu kommen. Nora Murray hat 1950 das Buch I Spied for Stalin geschrieben, einen Bestseller. Viel später, 1978, hat John Murray seine Autobiografie A Spy Called Swallow veröffentlicht. In dieser eBook-Ausgabe, von zwei Söhnen erstellt, sind beide Bücher in voller Länge vorhanden. „The full story of how these two very different people managed to flee Russia and convince Stalin himself to change Soviet Law for just a few hours to allow them to leave the country still remains, in many ways, a mystery.“ (Leserin) (5 Rezensionen / 5,0 Sterne), 402 Seiten – noch gratis?
