Nella Ferrara ebraica, tra nebbia e segreti spaventosi, Girolamo Svampa è alle prese con un vero e proprio enigma. Tanto sconcertante da mettere a dura prova la sua formidabile razionalità. Anno Domini 1626. Uno spirito malvagio si aggira per l'ex capitale estense. Molti lo credono il malach ah-mavet, l'angelo della morte. Di sicuro è un assassino spietato, che profana i corpi delle vittime per compiere un rituale arcano. L'incarico di fermarlo è affidato all'inquisitore Girolamo Svampa, che il Sant'Uffizio, stanco della sua condotta ribelle, vuole allontanare da Roma. Giunto in città, il frate domenicano dovrà far luce su un mistero reso ancora piú oscuro dagli apparenti legami con la qabbalah. Intanto, l'autore dei delitti continua a nascondersi nelle vie anguste del ghetto, autentico «serraglio» in cui è stata rinchiusa una comunità di millecinquecento persone tra sefarditi, aschenaziti e italkim. Ma non saranno solo gli omicidi a tenere occupato lo Svampa. Perché nella vicenda si inserirà anche Margherita Basile, ammaliante donna d'intrigo della corte papalina, e il suo intervento risulterà quanto mai decisivo. «Posata la lanterna, Solomon Cordovero s'inginocchiò davanti all'albero, affondò le dita nella terra e iniziò a scavare. Il pozzo delle anime, lo chiamava Ramak. Cordovero avrebbe dovuto aprire il pozzo delle anime e immergersi nelle sue acque piú profonde. Abbandonarsi allo yihud e diventare un tutt'uno col respiro divino che attraversava il mondo dei vivi e quello dei defunti. Cosí pensava, diviso tra l'estasi mistica e il fetore della terra che gli saliva alle narici, quando, all'improvviso, la piú crudele delle carezze gli corse lungo la schiena. Non un lamento gli uscí dalla bocca. Solo l'esclamazione atterrita di chi viene sopraffatto dall'inconoscibile. Perché prima del dolore, prima che le sue vertebre venissero snudate come semi di un frutto maturo, aveva avvertito la presenza del malach ah-mavet. L'angelo della morte».

‘Truly terrific' Richard Ford 'Dickens for the twenty-first century' Roddy Doyle 'A powerful, gripping tale' Sunday Times A man hanging on by a thread. A city about to snap. From the acclaimed author of The North Water comes an epic story of revenge and obsession. Manchester, 1867 Two men, haunted by their pasts. Driven by the need for justice. Blood begets blood. In a fight for life and legacy. Stephen Doyle arrives in Manchester from New York. He is an Irish-American veteran of the Civil War and a member of the Fenians, a secret society intent on ending British rule in Ireland, by any means necessary. Now he has come to seek vengeance. James O'Connor has fled grief and drink in Dublin for a sober start in Manchester as Head Constable. His mission is to discover and thwart the Fenians’ plans. When his long-lost nephew arrives on his doorstep, he never could have foreseen how this would imperil his fragile new life – or how his and Doyle's fates would come to be intertwined. The rebels will be hanged at dawn, and their brotherhood is already plotting revenge. Praise for The North Water, longlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2016 ‘Brilliant, fast-paced, gripping. A tour de force of narrative tension and a masterful reconstruction of a lost world’ Hilary Mantel ‘Utterly convincing and compelling… A startling achievement’ Martin Amis ‘Riveting and darkly brilliant… McGuire has an extraordinary talent’ Colm Toibin ‘Has exceptional power and energy’ Sunday Times ‘A stunning novel that snares the reader from the outset and keeps the tightest grip until the bitter end’ Financial Times ‘A vivid read, full of twists, turns, period detail and strong characters’ The Times ‘Terrific – McGuire’s use of the pitiless, fearsomely beautiful Arctic landscape as a theatre for enduring questions is inspired’ Daily Mail ‘McGuire has a sure and unwavering touch… a writer of exceptional craft and confidence’ Irish Times

In Scarpetta, Patricia Cornwell has a character as strong as any in popular fiction" —Wall Street Journal New York Times bestselling author Patricia Cornwell delivers the newest engrossing thriller in her high-stakes series starring medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta. Depraved Heart: “Void of social duty and fatally bent on mischief.” —Mayes v. People, 806 III. 306 (1883) Dr. Kay Scarpetta is working a suspicious death scene in Cambridge, Massachusetts when an emergency alert sounds on her phone. A video link lands in her text messages and seems to be from her computer genius niece Lucy. But how can it be? It’s clearly a surveillance film of Lucy taken almost twenty years ago. As Scarpetta watches she begins to learn frightening secrets about her niece, whom she has loved and raised like a daughter. That film clip and then others sent soon after raise dangerous legal implications that increasingly isolate Scarpetta and leave her confused, worried, and not knowing where to turn. She doesn’t know whom she can tell—not her FBI husband Benton Wesley or her investigative partner Pete Marino. Not even Lucy. In this new novel, Cornwell launches these unforgettable characters on an intensely psychological odyssey that includes the mysterious death of a Hollywood mogul’s daughter, aircraft wreckage on the bottom of the sea in the Bermuda Triangle, a grisly gift left in the back of a crime scene truck, and videos from the past that threaten to destroy Scarpetta’s entire world and everyone she loves. The diabolical presence behind what unfolds seems obvious—but strangely, not to the FBI. Certainly that’s the message they send when they raid Lucy’s estate and begin building a case that could send her to prison for the rest of her life. In the latest novel in her bestselling series featuring chief medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta, Cornwell will captivate readers with the shocking twists, high-wire tension, and cutting-edge forensic detail that she is famous for, proving yet again why she’s the world’s #1 bestselling crime writer.

By June 1940 Britain faced the enemy across the English Channel with annxious sense that very little kept her from being subjugated by theverwhelming might of the Nazi forces. What rescued the country was the Royalir Force's triumph in the Battle of Britain, and the encouragement andndurement of the people who lived, worked and suffered under the Luftwaffe'slitz which, almost nightly from September 1940 until May 1941, rainedestruction upon London and other major cities - only to do so again in laterampaigns that culminated in the launching of the Nazis' V1 and V2 'revengeeapons'. Based on eyewitness reminiscences, The Battle of Britain and thelitz relives those desperate times in the words of pilots, ground crew andther airmen and airwomen, firefighters, air-raid wardens, radar operators,potters, anti-aircraft gunners, Red Cross, YMCA and other voluntary workers,nd civilians - old and young, male and female - who between them helped tonsure that Britain survived to fight another day and, ultimately, to win.
