The Mystery Guest
A new mess.
A new mystery.
Molly the maid returns...
Molly Gray wears her Head Maid badge proudly for every shift at the Regency Grand Hotel, plumping pillows, sweeping up the guests’ secrets, silently restoring rooms to a state of perfection.
But when a renowned guest – a famous mystery writer – drops very dead in the grand tea room, Molly has an unusual clean-up on her hands.
As rumours and suspicion swirl in the hotel corridors, it’s clear there’s grime lurking beneath the gilt. And Molly knows that she alone holds the key to the mystery. But unlocking it means thinking about the past, about a dusty old house, and everything else she’s tidied away in her memory.
Because Molly knew the dead guest once upon a time – and she knows his secrets too...

Last Best Hope
Acclaimed National Book Award-winning author George Packer diagnoses America's descent into a failed state, and envisions a path toward overcoming injustices, paralyses, and divides
How, in a few decades, did the United States transform from a broadly prosperous middle-class country, with relatively healthy institutions and competent leaders, to a nation defined by discredited elites, hollowed-out institutions, and blatant inequalities-feared and pitied by our friends, mocked and sabotaged by our adversaries, first in the world in Covid cases and deaths, and led in recent years by an incompetent authoritarian bigot? Last Best Hope is a bracing account of our current crisis and of how a new era of civic revitalization may bring it to an end.
Combining reportage with historical narrative, autobiography, and political analysis, Packer depicts and assesses the four inadequate narratives that dominate American public life: Libertarian America, which imagines a nation of individuals responsible for their own fate, and serves the interests of corporations and the wealthy; Cosmopolitan America, the ideology of Silicon Valley and the professional elite,which celebrates globalization and leaves many American communities behind; Diverse America, which defines citizens as members of large identity groups that have inflicted or suffered oppression; and White America, a shallow nationalism that fears the contamination of non-whites and treachery of coastal elites, and poses the greatest threat to democracy in our lifetime.
At a time when many fear that the American experiment in self-government may collapse, or, in Abraham Lincoln's words, "die by suicide", Packer shows that none of these narratives can sustain American democracy. To point a better way forward, he looks back at previous eras of crisis to discover the resources for invigorating self-government. Combining trenchant social analysis with a vibrant and stinging essayistic voice and a deep knowledge of America's past and present, Last Best Hope is an essential contribution to the literature of national self-examination the times demand.
Turner Tina - Simply The Best (Blue) 2LP
Americká speváčka, tanečnica, herečka a autorka patrí k zásadným postavám svetového popu. V polovici päťdesiatych rokov začínala s kapelou Ike Turner's Kings of Rhythm. Najprv vystupovala pod pseudonymom Little Ann, meno Tina Turner prijala až v šesťdesiatych rokoch. Nasledovala strmá hudobná kariéra. Časopis Rolling Stone speváčku zaradil medzi sto najväčších interpretov všetkých čias (63.miesto).
„Simply The Best“ je prvou antológiou, ktorá obsahuje 18-skladbovú zostavu najcennejších hitov Tiny Turner. Najdôležitejšie skladby ako 'The Best', 'What's Love Got To Do With It', 'I Don't Wanna Lose You', 'Steamy Windows' a 'Private Dancer' sú ukážkou šírky Tininej ikonickej kariéry. Táto kompilácia, ktorá bola uvedená na trh v roku 1991, nielenže získala celosvetové multiplatinové uznanie, ale tiež si udržala prítomnosť v britských rebríčkoch viac ako dva roky, čím si upevnila status jedného z najlepších kompilačných albumov všetkých čias.

Lacná kniha Ten Američan (-25%)
Velice působivá prvotina jednoho z nejnovějších hlasů v oblasti napínavých příběhů. Andrew Britton vytvořil odvážný román, který praská vysokými sázkami, naléhavostí typickou pro dobu po 11. září a uvádí na scénu nerudného agenta CIA Ryana Kealeyho. Ryan se ocitá v zoufalé hře na kočku a myš s nejlstivějším protivníkem, s jakým se kdy setkal, protivníkem, který nepřestane, dokud nespáchá vrcholné zlo - a který je o to nebezpečnější, že je jeden z vlastních...

Cave Nick & The Bad Seeds - Lovely Creatures: The Best Of 1984-2014 2CD
KDO: Zpěvák, skladatel, multiinstrumentalista, herec, scénárista a spisovatel v jedné osobě, to je Nick Cave. Pochází z Austrálie, kde sformoval kapelu Boys Next Door, jež byla součástí místní post-punkové scény. V roce 1980 se skupina přejmenovala na Birthday Party a přesídlila do Evropy. Birthday Party v čele s Nickem Cavem si brzy získali značný respekt a velmi dobrou reputaci, jejich koncerty byly intenzivní a plné emocí. V roce 1983 se kapela rozpadla a Cave založil nové seskupení Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, v němž se sešel třeba s multiinstrumentalistou Mickem Harveym nebo kytaristou Blixou Bargeldem. Skupina je dnes považována za jednu z nejoriginálnějších post-punkových a alternativně rockových kapel, také u nás je její popularita značná.
CO: Do roku 2017 vydali Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds šestnáct studiových alb, od From Her To Eternity (1984) po Skeleton Tree (2016). Kolekce Lovely Creatures mapuje úctyhodnou kariéru souboru mezi roky 1984 a 2014, nabízí výběr nejdůležitějších studiových nahrávek, které jsou v různých variantách doplněny živými záznamy i dalšími memorabiliemi (fotografie, ilustrace Nicka Cavea, rozhovory apod.). Lovely Creatures vychází v základních verzích 2CD a 3LP a dále jako 3CD+DVD a 3CD+DVD+kniha.
