Pedon sydän -trilogian jännittävä finaali Pedon sydän -trilogian kolmas osa, Rummunvartija vie päätökseen nuoren, sankaruutta tavoittelevan Tommon ja Pikku-Tihin kiehtovan tarinan. Mahtavaa noitarumpua merentakaisten mailta hakemaan lähtenyt Tommo joutui Yökulkijan lopussa Kuikka-noidan myrkyttämäksi. Aivan viime hetkellä Pikku-Tihi onnistui pelastamaan Tommon ja rummun sekä tyttärensä Surutytön Kuikka-noidan kynsistä. Tästä alkaa kolmikon jännittävä, monia yllättäviä käänteitä ja vaaroja sisältävä pakomatka, jonka kuluessa rummun arvoitus vähitellen paljastuu. Moni havittelee rumpua ja sen voimaa itselleen. Jos se joutuu vääriin käsiin, koko maailma ajautuu pahan valtaan. Onko Tommo tuomittu vartioimaan rumpua ikuisiksi ajoiksi? Ja kuka onkaan rummun oikea haltija, jolla on valta ja kyky tuhota se lopullisesti? Trilogian aiemmista osista sanottua: S. N. Pireksen esikoisromaani Karhunkiertäjä on saamelaisiin myytteihin perustuvaa fantasiaa. Se on piristävää vaihtoehtoa eurooppalaiselle pseudokeskiajalle - - loppupuolen järisyttävät tapahtumat jäävät mieleen pitkäksi aikaa. Pires on lupaava kirjoittaja, joka on löytänyt oman tyylin. Tästä on hyvä jatkaa. - Tähtivaeltaja Pidin erityisesti kirjan kauniista, verkkaisesta kielestä, joka kuvaili upeaa luontoa, eläimiä ja noitia uskottavasti. - - Tommon näyt ja kokemukset luovat pahaenteistä odotuksen tunnetta, jota vahvistaa Lokan rummutuksen pauhu. Lopulta tapahtuu kamalia, ja tarina saa aivan uuden suunnan seuraavaa osaa ajatellen. - Kirjahullun päiväkirja -blogi S. N. Pires (s. 1974) syntyi Eskilstunassa Ruotsissa ja asuu nykyään perheineen Jyväskylässä. Hän on opiskellut kognitiotieteitä ja psykologiaa ja on koulutukseltaan sosionomi. Kirjoittaminen on ollut aina Pireksen intohimo, samoin historia, mytologia ja kuvataiteet. Pedon sydän -trilogiassa ovat aiemmin ilmestyneet romaanit Karhunkiertäjä ja Yökulkija.

When a body is found in a hotel room, reporters are soon all over the case: it appears to be a missing LAPD narcotics detective, apparently gone to the bad. The rumours were that he had been selling a new drug called Black Ice that had been infiltrating Los Angeles from the Mexican cartel. The LAPD are quick to declare the death a suicide, but Harry Bosch is not so sure. There are odd mysteries and unexplained details from the crime scene which just don't add up. Fighting an attraction to the detective's widow, Bosch starts his own maverick investigation, which soon leads him over the borders and into a dangerous world of shifting identities, police politics and deadly corruption . . .

Lorna Belling, desperate to escape the marriage from hell, falls for the charms of another man who promises her the earth. But, as Lorna finds, life seldom follows the plans you've made. A chance photograph on a client's mobile phone changes everything for her. When the body of a woman is found in a bath in Brighton, Detective Superintendent Roy Grace is called to the scene. At first it looks an open and shut case with a clear prime suspect. Then other scenarios begin to present themselves, each of them tantalizingly plausible, until, in a sudden turn of events, and to his utter disbelief, the case turns more sinister than Grace could ever have imagined.

In the near future sci-fi world of Qualityland, algorithms help create an idyllic life for its citizens, but what if the perfect world wasn't built for you? Welcome to QualityLand, the best country on Earth. Here, a universal ranking system determines the social advantages and career opportunities of every member of society. An automated matchmaking service knows the best partners for everyone and helps with the break up when your ideal match (frequently) changes. And the foolproof algorithms of the biggest, most successful company in the world, TheShop, know what you want before you do and conveniently deliver to your doorstep before you even order it. In QualityCity, Peter Jobless is a machine scrapper who can't quite bring himself to destroy the imperfect machines sent his way, and has become the unwitting leader of a band of robotic misfits hidden in his home and workplace. One day, Peter receives a product from TheShop that he absolutely, positively knows he does not want, and which he decides, at great personal cost, to return. The only problem: doing so means proving the perfect algorithm of TheShop wrong, calling into question the very foundations of QualityLand itself. Qualityland, Marc-Uwe Kling's first book to be translated into English, is a brilliantly clever, illuminating satire in the tradition of Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Adams, and George Orwell that offers a visionary, frightening, and all-too funny glimpse at a near future we may be hurtling toward faster than it's at all comfortable to admit. So why delay any longer? TheShop already knows you're going to love this book. You may as well head to the cash register, crack the covers, and see why that is for yourself.

Two years after the end of World War II, a director sets out to mimic real life by creating a film without a script, where the actors learn the story and their part in it as they go. The tale unfolds of a young couple on the run during the Nazi occupation, but soon the characters they play begin to take on lives of their own. As the lines between fiction and reality blur, the Secret Police become convinced that the director holds information that could compromise the nation's security, and they decide to interrogate him about his fictional plot. Fear and desire merge in this imaginative world where coincidence is never just that, and overlapping identities and unconventional romance offer a playful notion of truth. Winner of the 2013 European Union Prize for Literature.

A horrific crime that defies explanation, a rookie FBI agent in uncharted territory, and an extraordinary hero for the ages: an investigation spirals out of control in this heart-pounding thriller. Odessa Hardwicke's life is derailed when she's forced to turn her gun on her partner, Walt Leppo, a decorated FBI agent who turns suddenly, inexplicably violent while apprehending a rampaging murderer. The shooting, justified by self-defense, shakes the young FBI agent to her core. Devastated, Odessa is placed on desk leave pending a full investigation. But what most troubles Odessa isn't the tragedy itself -- it's the shadowy presence she thought she saw fleeing the deceased agent's body after his death. Questioning her future with the FBI and her sanity, Hardwicke accepts a low-level assignment to clear out the belongings of a retired agent in the New York office. What she finds there will put her on the trail of a mysterious figure named Hugo Blackwood, a man of enormous means who claims to have been alive for centuries, and who is either an unhinged lunatic, or humanity's best and only defense against unspeakable evil. From the authors who brought you The Strain Trilogy comes a strange, terrifying, and darkly wondrous world of suspense, mystery, and literary horror. The Hollow Ones is a chilling, spell-binding tale, a hauntingly original new fable from Academy Award-winning director Guillermo del Toro and bestselling author Chuck Hogan featuring their most fascinating character yet.

"People thought it was a prank when the videos first appeared: empty minutes of darkness uploaded continuously to YouTube. But then they turned nasty. Repeat images of bloody violence spread like wildfire, showing helpless figures cowering on the ground as they were kicked over and over again. And when the dead bodies began showing up all over London it became clear this was no prank at all, this was grim reality. With the police unable to stop the spread of violence, Lia and Mari step in. Two independent Finnish women living in London, they spend their spare time investigating difficult cases that the police have failed to solve. Mari will have to call on the aid of her mysterious 'Studio', a private crime-fighting organisation that considers itself above the law, into which she has recently initiated Lia. But the stakes are high and Mari will have to risk much, perhaps the lives of all her companions including Lia, if she is to bring the perpetrator to justice."--Cover.

Special Agent Pendergast-one of the most original, compelling characters in all of contemporary fiction-returns in Preston and Child's new exhilarating novel BLUE LABYRINTH A long-buried family secret has come back to haunt Special Agent Aloysius Pendergast. It begins with murder. One of Pendergast's most implacable, most feared enemies is found on his doorstep, dead. Pendergast has no idea who is responsible for the killing, or why the body was brought to his home. The mystery has all the hallmarks of the perfect crime, save for an enigmatic clue: a piece of turquoise lodged in the stomach of the deceased. The gem leads Pendergast to an abandoned mine on the shore of California's Salton Sea, which in turn propels him on a journey of discovery deep into his own family's sinister past. But Pendergast learns there is more at work than a ghastly episode of family history: he is being stalked by a subtle killer bent on vengeance over an ancient transgression. And he soon becomes caught in a wickedly clever plot, which leaves him stricken in mind and body, and propels him toward a reckoning beyond anything he could ever have imagined....
