Thriller von Elin Barnes
When a string of knockout-gas attacks followed by military-style kidnappings and vanishing witnesses hit Silicon Valley, Detectives Darcy Lynch and Erik Sorensen fear they’re facing a national security threat.

Could she be entangled with the mastermind behind the attacks?

The Girl On The Landing
Literarischer Roman von Paul Torday
Elizabeth has been married to Michael for ten years. She has adjusted to a fairly monotonous routine with her wealthy, decent but boring husband. Part of this routine involves occasional visits to Beinn Caorrun, the dank and gloomy house in a Scottish glen that Michael inherited. There are memories there that Michael will not share with her. But then Michael begins to change. It starts when he thinks he sees, in a picture, the figure of a girl on a landing. As he changes, life becomes so much more fun and Elizabeth sees glimpses of a man she can fall in love with at last.
Paul Torday (* 1. August 1946 in Croxdale, County Durham; † 18. Dezember 2013) war ein britischer Schriftsteller. „A gently comic novel about schizophrenia sounds like the worst idea ever, but Torday pulls it off magnificently.“ (John O’Connell, THE TIMES) (82 Rezensionen / 4,0 Sterne), 324 Seiten noch günstig?

The Bone Ritual
Thriller von Julian Lees
Inspektur Ruud Pujasumarta has seen some gang-perpetrated horror crimes in his time, but the slum murder of a middle-aged woman he is called to is both horrifying and baffling. Mari Agnes Liem has not only been choked to death while tied to her bed, but the murderer has amputated her left hand and left a mah jong tile in her throat. And he has taken the hand with him.
Julian Lees ist in Hongkong geboren, in England zur Schule gegangen und lebt jetzt in Malaysia. Seine Bücher leben ganz im Hintergrund von seiner eigenen Familiengeschichte, in der sich westliche und östliche Kultur mischen. „I like the descriptions of Indonesia, the geography, culture and customs. They seem to slip naturally into the narrative rather than being deliberate insertions.“ (Leserin) (4 Rezensionen / 4,3 Sterne), 384 Seiten noch günstig?
When Time is Cracked and Trees Cry
Abenteuerroman von Nahum Megged
An Israeli anthropologist flees his country and the bitter memories that haunt him, finding refuge in the Amazon jungles. The protagonist’s death wish opens hidden paths before him, and these lead him into the heart of the forest. Xnen, the tribal leader, and Yakura, the embodiment of the forest goddess, draw him into the life of the tribe as he gradually becomes trapped in their magical world. Behind each tree, beyond every pathway that disappears into the forest, inside each sacred cave, and at the end of each night, there are mysteries he must solve, traces of magnificent lost civilizations swallowed by the forest, riddles, and prophecies.
Nahum Megged ist ein bekannter Anthropologe, der sich unterschiedlichen Ländern der amerikanischen Kontinente gewidmet hat. „ In this case, the author not that did research, he is an expert in a field! And thus, the reading this book was pure joy, not only because it is dealing with mythology, which I like a lot, incorporating myths and legends from other cultures in our real world, make us see thing from different angle but educational, because I could learn so many things, knowing that they are scientifically proven.“ (Leserin) (24 Rezensionen / 4,4 Sterne), 411 Seiten – noch gratis?
