Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - #1 New York Times bestselling author Kathy Reichs returns with a new twisty, unputdownable thriller featuring forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan.\*\*EVIL BONES, THE THRILLING NEW KATHY REICHS NOVEL, IS OUT NOW\*\* It's never easy working fire scenes. Called to Washington, DC to analys…e the victims of a mysterious arson attack, Tempe quickly finds her misgivings justified. The fire site is in Foggy Bottom, a neighbourhood with a colourful history, and as the pieces start falling into place, the property's ownership becomes more and more suspicious. Sensing a good story, Tempe teams up with a new ally, telejournalist Ivy Doyle. Delving into the past, the duo learns that back in the Thirties and Forties the home was the hangout of a group of bootleggers and racketeers known as the Foggy Bottom Gang. Though interesting, this fact seems irrelevant - until the son of one of the gang members is shot dead at his farm in Virginia. When another Foggy Bottom Gang-linked property burns to the ground, claiming one more victim, what might have been coincidence starts to look more like targeted attacks. As she and Ivy dig deeper, Tempe's instincts point towards the obvious: somehow, her every move since coming to Washington has been anticipated in advance. And every path forward brings with it a lethal threat.PRAISE FOR KATHY REICHS:'A thing of clever beauty - smart, scary, complicated, and engrossing' Michael Connelly'This page-turning series never lets the reader down' Harlan Coben'One of my favourite writers' Karin Slaughter'I await the next Kathy Reichs thriller with the same anticipation I have for the new Lee Child or Patricia Cornwell' James Patterson.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'We were three: complete, as we were meant to be' Ego, Zina and Eriife were always destined to be best friends, ever since their grandmothers sat next to each other on a dusty bus to Lagos in the late 1940s, forging a bond that would last generations. But over half a century later, Nigeria is… a new and modern country. As the three young women navigate the incessant strikes and political turmoil that surrounds them, their connection is shattered by a terrible assault. In the aftermath, nothing will remain the same as life takes them down separate paths. For Ego, now a high-powered London lawyer, success can't mask her loneliness and feelings of being an outsider. Desperate to feel connected to Nigeria, she escapes into a secret life online. Zina's ambition is to be anyone but herself; acting proves the ultimate catharsis, but it comes at the cost of her family. And Eriife surprises everyone by morphing from a practising doctor to a ruthless politician's perfect wife. When Ego returns home, the three women's lives become entwined once more, as Nigeria's political landscape fractures. Their shared past will always connect them, but can they and their country overcome it.

A wonderful display of how modern archaeology can bring hidden histories to life' Daily Telegraph 'Gripping . . . I found it hard to put down' Evening Standard 'Fascinating' Gua…rdian The history of the Middle Ages is typically the story of the rich and powerful, but archaeology represents another way of interrogating our history. By using cutting-edge science to examine human remains and burials, it is possible to gain a new understanding of the past - one that is more intimate and inclusive than ever before. The seven stories in Crypt are not comforting tales. We meet the patients at one of the earliest hospitals in England and the victims of the St Brice's Day Massacre. We see a society struggling to make sense of disease, disability and death, as incurable epidemics sweep through medieval Europe. We learn of a protracted battle between Church and State, and come face to face with the archers who went down with the Mary Rose.Beautifully written and expertly researched by Professor Alice Roberts, Crypt is packed with thrilling scientific discoveries that challenge what we thought we knew about history.

By using new advances in genetics and taking us through important archaeological discoveries, Professor Alice Roberts helps us better understand life today.'This is a terrific, timely and transporting book - t…aking us heart, body and mind beyond history, to the fascinating truth of the prehistoric past and the present' Bettany Hughes We often think of Britain springing from nowhere with the arrival of the Romans.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu.

From classic films to o…bscure British television, the poems of playwrights to the psychogeography of Weird Fiction, Local Haunts brings together a collection of essays, photographs, travelogues, and journalism that explores the connections between art and the landscapes that inspire it. With particular focus on several key figures that emphasised place in their work - including W.G. Sebald, Alan Garner, Agnes Varda, M.R. James, and Marguerite Duras - Scovell explores culture that is haunted by locales, rural and urban. Taken from a range of print and digital publications, including work published by Sight & Sound, Literary Hub, Caught By The River, and Little White Lies, as well as Scovell''s Celluloid Wicker Man site that brought many ideas surrounding Folk Horror and the Urban Wyrd to prominence in the early 2010s, Local Haunts brings together a decade of work treading the ghostways and the corpse roads of film, literature, and art.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This "wickedly pacey page-turner" (Total Film) unfurls the behind-the-scenes story of the making of The Godfather, fifty years after the classic film's original release.The story of how The Godfather was made is as dramatic, operatic, and entertaining as the film itself. Over the years, many…versions of various aspects of the movie's fiery creation have been toldsometimes conflicting, but always compelling. Mark Seal sifts through the evidence, has extensive new conversations with director Francis Ford Coppola and several heretofore silent sources, and complements them with colorful interviews with key players including actors Al Pacino, James Caan, Talia Shire, and others to write "the definitive look at the making of an American classic" (Library Journal, starred review). On top of the usual complications of filmmaking, the creators of The Godfather had to contend with the real-life members of its subject matter: the Mob. During production of the movie, location permits were inexplicably revoked, author Mario Puzo got into a public brawl with an irate Frank Sinatra, producer Al Ruddy's car was found riddled with bullets, men with "connections" vied to be in the cast, and some were given film roles. As Seal notes, this is the tale of a "movie that revolutionized filmmaking, saved Paramount Pictures, minted a new generation of movie stars, made its struggling author Mario Puzo rich and famous, and sparked a war between two of the mightiest powers in America: the sharks of Hollywood and the highest echelons of the Mob." "For fans of books about moviemaking, this is a definite must-read" (Booklist).

When it transpires that Kaplan's intended target was not the student but Max Brod, Franz Kafka's close friend and the executor of his literary estate, the interrogation of a murderer slowly transforms into a dialogue between a passionate admirer of Kafka's work, who is attempting to protect the author's final wish to have his manuscripts burned, and a police commissioner who is learning more about literature than he ever thought possible from a prisoner in his custody. In this gripping, thought-provoking tribute to Kafka, Burhan Sönmez vividly recreates a key period of history in the 1960s, when the Berlin Wall divided Europe. More than a typical mystery, Lovers of Franz K. is an exploration of the value of books, and the issues of anti-Semitism, immigration, and violence that recur in Kafka's life and writings. ------------ 'A homage to Franz Kafka, framed as the trial (of course) of Ferdy Kaplan . [Sönmez] queries how far one should go in the pursuit of what is important to us' The Times 'The kind of book that will enthral a student and intrigue an Oxford don, thrill a worker on the factory floor and captivate a lifelong reader of Kafka' Lemn Sissay 'Did Max Brod commit a crime by not fulfilling Kafka's last will - to burn all his works Burhan Sönmez is not a judge. He is only a scribe at the Last Judgment, recording the speeches of the parties. And he does his job brilliantly' Mikhail Shishkin 'A gripping tale of idealism colliding with history and moral uncertainty' Ava Homa, author of Daughters of Smoke and Fire 'PEN International president Sönmez wrestles with fraught questions of loyalty and legacy in this contemplative literary thriller . Sönmez's sharp thematic layering and concise worldbuilding impress. This is a good bet for mystery readers seeking something off the beaten path' Publishers Weekly Praise for Burhan Sönmez 'A writer of passion, memory and heart' Elif Shafak 'His novels delve into imprisonment and memory, with echoes of Fyodor Dostoyevsky and Jorge Luis Borges' Jason Farago.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Hilarious and heartbreaking' MONICA ALI 'Deeply funny and knowing' MEG WOLITZER 'Witty, moving' ANN NAPOLITANO 'Poignant, funny and brilliantly told' POSY SIMMONDSAn often hilarious, surprisingly moving portrait of a long-married couple, seen through the eyes of their wickedly observant daug…hter - for fans of A Man Called Ove and The Royal Tenenbaums. Miranda's parents live in a dilapidated house in rural France that they share with two llamas, eight ducks, five chickens, two cats, and a freezer full of food dating back to 1983. Miranda's father is a retired professor of philosophy who never loses an argument. Her mother likes to bring conversation back to the War, although she was born after it ended. Married for fifty years, they are uncommonly set in their ways. Miranda plays the role of translator when she visits, communicating the desires or complaints of one parent to the other and then venting her frustration to her sister and her daughter. A wry, propulsive, exquisitely observed story of a singularly eccentric family and the sibling rivalry, generational divides, and long-buried secrets that shape them. This is an extraordinary debut novel from a seasoned playwright with a flare for dialogue and, in the end, immense empathy. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 'Hilarious and heartbreaking. Barnes's dialogue is pitch-perfect, and her characters dance off the page and straight into your heart' Monica Ali, author of Love Marriage 'Camilla Barnes deftly deciphers the secret language of one family, often with deeply funny and knowing results. I loved spending time in the very specific, complicated and memorable world of this novel' Meg Wolitzer, author of The Wife 'I love nothing more than reading about eccentric families, and the family in The Usual Desire to Kill is just that. Miranda and her sister work to uncover the true story of their parents' marriage, only to have their brilliant, quirky mother and father deflect them at every turn. Barnes has written a witty, moving novel about characters who, even when they seem incapable of speaking honestly, are worth listening to nonetheless' Ann Napolitano, author of Hello Beautiful 'An account of two ageing, secretive, disputatious and thoroughly maddening parents - poignant, funny and brilliantly told through gritted teeth' Posy Simmonds, author of Cassandra DarkeEARLY READERS' REVIEWS FOR THE USUAL DESIRE TO KILL: 'Family saga at its very best told with a tenderness that matches the dark humour in equal parts. I think this a book a lot of people will identify with' 'Hugely relatable. Endearingly flawed characters with real depth and an insightful understanding of the ways in which family dynamics play out' 'A unique yet weirdly relatable family saga' 'Funny, honest, and engaging' 'An observant and darkly witty debut'.

Neuware - Mitch Caddo started out with the best of intentionsafter his mother's sudden death in a car crash, he finished law school and returned to Passage Rouge, the reservation where she grew up. Though an outsider to the tribe himself, he sought to help his new community by representing disadvantage…d families in tribal court. But that was before--before he got sucked into the world of Mack Plum, his charismatic childhood friend. Before Mack ran and won the race for Tribal President as an underdog populist. Before he and Mitch became the people who would do anything to keep Mack at the head of the tribal council. And before he came face to face once again with his teenage flame Layla Plum, none other than Mack's sister, who had returned to Passage Rouge for her own reasons.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A darkly comic suspense in the vein of All's Well and Yellowface, She's a Lamb! is an edgy and incisive novel that marches toward showtime with a growing unease about the dangers of magical thinking and the depths of delusion Jessamyn St. Germain is meant to be a star. Not an actor who occasi…onally books yogurt commercials and certainly not a lowly usher at one of Vancouver's smallest regional theaters. No, she is bound for greatness, and that's why the part of Maria in the theater's upcoming production of The Sound of Music is hers. Or it's going to be. Jessamyn may have been relegated to the position of childminder for the little brats playing the von Trapp children, but it's so obvious she's there for a different reason the director wants her close to the role so when Samantha, the lead, inevitably fails, Jessamyn will be there to take her place in the spotlight. This must be it. Because if it isn't, well, then every skipped meal, every brutal rehearsal, every inch won against a man attempting to drag her down will have all been for nothing. Sharp, relentless, and darkly funny, She's a Lamb! is a cutting satire about the grotesque pall patriarchy casts over one woman's delusional quest to achieve her dreams and the depths she will sink to for a chance at the life she's convinced she deserves.
