Maud O’Connor Mysteries

From international bestselling master of suspense Nicci French comes a hair-raising locked-room thriller about a group of old university friends with a killer in their midst.Old friends, new secrets, one deadly reunion.Tyler Green, convicted of murdering his friend Leo at a student house party in 1993, has been released after almost three decades in prison. He has always protested his innocence.On a warm evening in London, Tyler summons eight of his university friends who were present on that fateful night. Is it just a reunion - or something else? With wine—and accusations— flowing liberally, the reunion descends into violent chaos, and one friend will end the night with their throat slit in the upstairs bedroom…the same way that Leo’s was in 1993.When Detective Inspector Maud O’Connor gets called to investigate, she has her own doubts about Tyler’s guilt, despite what his old friends, the rest of the Metropolitan Police Force, and even the Home Secretary would like her to believe….

What Happened That Night

Not so long ago, Russia under Putin appeared to be a corrupt state run by an elite mainly interested in their own privileges and wealth: authoritarian but not fundamentally expansionist. The 2022 invasion of Ukraine made it clear that Putin is driven by far more than simply greed. Putin's Russia is, Andrei Kolesnikov argues, in the grip of intense ideological radicalization, seeking to mobilize its population in support of a form of chauvinistic neo-imperialism using increasingly totalitarian methods. This march towards "hybrid totalitarianism" is driven by a messianic view of Russia as a superior, "spiritual" form of "state-civilization" underpinned by its Orthodox faith and hatred of Western "decadence." Based upon a falsified version of history and a profound hostility to modernization, this ideology is making Russia an international pariah and condemning its citizens to endless war and economic stagnation. The only hope for redemption is a profound moral regeneration which redefines the nation's place in the world and embraces the spirit of democracy. This incisive analysis of the ideological dynamics of late Putinism, written by a leading Russian scholar and journalist, is an indispensable guide to understanding the country's recent descent into war-mongering barbarism.

How Putin's Ideology Took the Nation Hostage

The Closing of the Russian Mind

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

Wolkendämmerung

Britain is complacent about corruption. We are used to thinking of ourselves as firm defenders of fairness and the rule of law. But our institutions have never been more corrupt, from scandals in parliament and local government to crises in housing and the NHS. The evidence is impossible to ignore. Political leaders face a clear choice: tackle corruption or continue on the road to decline. Robert Barrington is one of the world's leading researchers on corruption. Corrupted Kingdom is his comprehensive examination of how corruption manifests in Britain, from politicians to prisons, the Monarchy and the Met. He assesses the origins of corruption, from Londongrad to the end of Empire, and shows how we can best reverse the decline and restore trust in politics and the democratic process. Vital and authoritative, Corrupted Kingdom provides an essential insight into why the abuse of power harms us all - and how we can banish corruption for good.

Britain's Disappearing Integrity – And How We Can Get It Back

Corrupted Kingdom

From the bestselling author of MONEYLAND and BUTLER TO THE WORLD, a revelatory new anatomy of global money laundering, the crime that makes crime pay Without money laundering, few crimes of acquisition would be worth the trouble. South America's drug cartels would be stuffed without it, as would Nigerian kleptocrats, Afghan terrorists, American tax evaders and a whole bestiary of human (and animal) traffickers the world over. And yet, estimates of the dirty portion of world GDP have held steady at 2%-5% for decades. All efforts at legislation, diplomacy, prosecution and compliance have been a complete flop. It's not a lack of will to stamp it out. It's a lack of insight. So join bestselling investigative journalist Oliver Bullough on a perspective-altering adventure through the flipside of the global economy. In the criminal world, cash is still king (in fact, crime might now be the main thing cash is good for, and even why it still exists). Barter is pretty good too: vast, continent-wide exchanges of everything from luxury handbags to baby eels support a triangular drug trade linking Europe to the Far East. Cryptocurrencies flow through paper ledgers that would make a Florentine merchant feel at home. And the system works. Whether you're a fraudster, a cartel boss, a corrupt politician, a kleptocrat or a terrorist mastermind, your options to move and hide your money are more secure and more impenetrable than they have ever been. There has never been a better time to be a criminal. It's time that changed.

A dazzling heart-shaped gem, the Emerald contains mysterious and powerful magic.When the Emerald is stolen, Newt sets off to recover it.

And as Newt and Harnett face danger together, each realizes there is more to the other than meets the eye—and more alarming yet, they may actually be falling in love.The New York Times bestselling author of Sabriel, Garth Nix, shares his own love for the Regency romantasy genre in a charmed world where everyone has something to hide.

The Bank of England know more about money than most - after all, they are the ones responsible for making sure it works. Now, the Bank answer all the questions about money that you've never thought to ask - from what makes money money, to how private banks create money every time they give out a loan, to what happens to cash when it's past its sell by date (it's often moulded into garden furniture, as it turns out).

Die Nähe zum Utopischen ist der Lyrik schon in die Wiege gelegt. Autoren beinah aller Zeiten&nbsp;- von Hölderlin, der uns ins Offene schickt, bis hin zu Rilke, der im Vers den Raum für die Verwandlung vorfindet - haben sich der visionären Kraft der Lyrik bedient. Dichten an sich ist schon utopisch.

Nur wie verhält es sich damit in der Gegenwart? In einer Zeit, die uns durch Kriege und Klimawandel zunehmend finster erscheint? Wo gelingt der Affekt des Hoffens, wie ist es möglich aus sich herauszugehen? Was kann das Leben weit machen, statt es zu verengen? 

Zeitgenössische Lyriker:innen suchen in der Tat nach Hoffnungspoetiken. Sie hinterfragen die Verantwortung des Menschen für seine Umwelt, kreieren neue Welten und scheuen ebenso wenig vor Kritik am Utopischen zurück. Das zeigt diese breit angelegt Anthologie zeitgenössischer Lyrik. Was alle Entwürfe eint: das Ausloten von Optionen, das Sowohl-als-auch, die Freude am Dazwischen-Dichten.

Das Buch gliedert sich in fünf Teile: Utopie als Schreibform, Vom Dazwischen zum guten Ort, Melancholie als Quell des Utopischen, Ökologie und Utopie, Utopiekritik und Dystopie - und wird durch einen Essay von Björn Hayer abgerundet.

Lyrikerinnen und Lyriker: Mirko Bonné, Yevgeniy Breyger, Jürgen Brôcan, Crauss, Daniela Danz, Dominik Dombrowski, Kurt Drawert, Carl-Christan Elze, Daniel Falb, Isabella Feimer, Alexander Graeff, Manon Hopf, Nancy&nbsp;Hünger, Matthias Jeschke, Alexander Kappe, Esther Kinsky, Julia Kulewatz, Christine Langer, José F.¿A. Oliver, Nasima Razizadeh, Dana Ranga, Doris Runge, Ulrike Almut Sandig, Silke Scheuermann, Tom Schulz, Nathalie Schmid, Mira Magdalena Sickinger, Michael Stavari¿, Jürgen Theobaldy, Julia Trompeter, Sebastian Unger, Andreas Unterweger, Thomas Weiß, Eva Christina Zeller.

Mit einem einzigen Knopfdruck hat Gabriel Winter die Welt verändert. Und es sind seine engsten Freunde, die die Konsequenzen tragen müssen. Währenddessen versucht Special Agent Siobhan Silk, herauszufinden, womit der Horror vor 25 Jahren in Palo Alto seinen Anfang nahm. Vor allem muss sie herausfinden, wer die&nbsp;Killerin PH34R ist. Oder was...&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Die neue Horror-Serie von James Tynion IV. ('Something is killing the Children', 'The Department of Truth') und Fernando Blanco ('Batman Eternal', 'Detective Comics') ist eine grauenerregende Vision eines völlig entgrenzten Internets mit absoluter Macht über den Geist des Menschen.
