Death in Paradise - Staffel 14

Was passiert, wenn die mächtigste Waffe der Welt in die falschen Hände gerät?
Und was würdest du tun, wenn du sie als einziger stoppen könntest?

Nicholas ist siebzehn und kann begnadet
fotografieren. Die Chance seines Lebens:
Bordfotograf auf einem Forschungsschiff.
Doch dabei entdeckt er Geheimnisse, die weder für seine Augen noch für seine Kamera bestimmt sind, und plötzlich gerät er in tödliche Gefahr...

Ein brandaktueller Thriller unter kalifornischer Sonne.
Futuristisch? Oder realistisch?
So gefährlich nah war uns die Zukunft noch nie

Paper Cut

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “After his spectacular Lincoln in the Bardo, Saunders returns . . . with a new novel even more spectacular than the last.”—Los Angeles Times A “daring” (Time) novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling, Booker Prize–winning author of A Swim in a Pond in the Rain and Tenth of December, taking place at the bedside of an oil company CEO in the twilight hours of his life as he is ferried from this world into the next “Vibrant, fiendishly clever . . . Vigil is pure Saunders: the death of empathy, he insists, is greatly exaggerated.”—The Boston Globe Not for the first time, Jill “Doll” Blaine finds herself hurtling toward earth, reconstituting as she falls, right down to her favorite black pumps. She plummets towards her newest charge, yet another soul she must usher into the afterlife, and lands headfirst in the circular drive of his ornate mansion. She has performed this sacred duty 343 times since her own death. Her charges, as a rule, have been greatly comforted in their final moments. But this charge, she soon discovers, isn’t like the others. The powerful K. J. Boone will not be consoled, because he has nothing to regret. He lived a big, bold, epic life, and the world is better for it. Isn’t it? Vigil transports us, careening, through the wild final evening of a complicated man. Visitors begin to arrive (worldly and otherworldly, alive and dead), clamoring for a reckoning. Birds swarm the dying man’s room; a black calf grazes on the love seat; a man from a distant, drought-ravaged village materializes; two oil-business cronies from decades past show up with chilling plans for Boone’s postdeath future. With the wisdom, playfulness, and explosive imagination we’ve come to expect, George Saunders takes on the gravest issues of our time—the menace of corporate greed, the toll of capitalism, the environmental perils of progress—and, in the process, spins a tale that encompasses life and death, good and evil, and the thorny question of absolution.

Absolute Batman Vol. 2: Abomination

She shot her husband on a crowded Melbourne street.

Witnesses heard her shout, "I did it!"

Then she pleaded not guilty.

The case ignites the city. Newspapers circle. Society whispers. And inside the courtroom, two of Melbourne's fiercest legal minds go to war: a principled prosecutor chasing justice, and a flamboyant defence showman who plays to the gallery.

At the centre stands Kathleen Fraser: volatile, defiant, and impossible to ignore. Is she a cold-blooded killer? A woman dismissed as "hysterical" by her time? Or someone pushed beyond endurance in a world designed to silence her?

The Dangerous Wife resurrects a true crime murder trial that once gripped Australia. Now reconstructed in full from the original evidence. Court transcripts, depositions, private letters, shorthand notes, and hundreds of newspaper reports bring the testimony, contradictions, and turning points to life with the pace of a legal thriller.

What you'll get as a reader:

-A public shooting, a shocking confession, and a not-guilty plea that changes everything.
-A courtroom battle where strategy, reputation, and performance can decide a verdict.
-Evidence you can weigh for yourself, drawn from primary sources and contemporary reporting.

A vivid look at how class, gender, and public opinion shaped justice in Australia. Gripping, unsettling, and meticulously sourced, this is true crime for readers who want the law in action and a legal showdown where the stakes are life and death.

"A gripping true crime story told with the insight of a forensic legal mind." -Roy Maloy, true crime history

M. J. Checketts is the author of The Dangerous Wife: A True Legal Thriller, a meticulously researched and compelling narrative that resurrects one of Australia's most sensational courtroom battles. Drawing on his deep legal experience as a former senior partner of a major Australian law firm, he brings unmatched insight into the human drama and procedural intricacies of real-world justice.

Trained in England and based in Melbourne, Checketts spent his legal career advising on complex matters and now serves on several professional services boards. His writing blends crisp narrative pacing with the analytical precision of a seasoned lawyer, capturing both the emotional stakes and forensic detail that define high-profile trials. The Dangerous Wife is his first work of narrative non-fiction and reflects his commitment to telling true legal stories that engage, inform, and challenge readers.
