The Magpie Society: One for Sorrow
Seven for a secret, never to be told . . .
Illumen Hall is a boarding school of tradition and achievement.
But tragedy strikes when the body of a girl, a student, is discovered - on her back is an elaborate tattoo of a magpie.
For new student Audrey, it is just another unsettling thing about her new surroundings. And for her roommate Ivy, well, she's just annoyed she has to share with the new girl from America.
As an unlikely friendship develops, the two are drawn deeper into the mystery of this strange and terrible murder. They will discover that something dangerous is at the heart of their school.
Welcome to The Magpie Society.
Lacná kniha The Clicking of Cuthbert
A Golf collection. The Oldest Member knows everything that has ever happened on the golf course - and a great deal more besides. Take the story of Cuthbert, for instance. He's helplessly in love with Adeline, but what use are his holes in one when she's in thrall to Culture and prefers rising young writers to winners of the French Open? But enter a Great Russian Novelist with a strange passion, and Cuthbert's prospects are transformed. Then look at what happens to young Mitchell Holmes, who misses short putts because of the uproar of the butterflies in the adjoining meadows. His career seems on the skids - but can golf redeem it? The kindly but shrewd gaze of the Oldest Member picks out some of the funniest stories Wodehouse ever wrote.

All My Puny Sarrows
Elf and Yoli are two smart, loving sisters. Elf is a world-renowned pianist, glamorous, wealthy, happily married: she wants to die. Yoli is divorced, broke, sleeping with the wrong men: she desperately wants to keep her older sister alive. When Elf's latest suicide attempt leaves her hospitalised weeks before her highly anticipated world tour, Yoli is forced to confront the impossible question of whether it is better to let a loved one go. "The novel she has written - so exquisitely that you'll want to savour every word - reads as if it has been wrenched from her heart". (Christina Patterson, Sunday Times). "[Toews] has produced a masterly book of such precise dignity. It is, also against all the odds, at times a desperately humorous novel". (Daily Mail).

Scarecrow
As 'Scarecrow' Schofield watches his mission to eliminate a Siberian turn into a bloodbath, he realises he has been tricked - and now become the prey rather than the predator. For a shadowy consortium of staggering power and wealth has included his name on a list of fifteen targets to be eliminated without fail by twelve noon that same day. Now every high-powered bounty hunter on the planet is on his trail, while he must simultaneously track down the perpetrators of a conspiracy about to reduce many of the major cities of the world to ashes. From Arctic Russia to the Afghan border, to France's Atlantic Coast, to a speed-of-light conflict over the Suez Canal, every form of ultra-tech weaponry comes into play in a spellbinding action drama unfolding within a mere twenty-four hours.

Sorrow Of Angels
It is three weeks since the boy came to town, carrying a book of poetry to return to the old sea captain - the poetry that did for his friend Bardur. Three weeks, but already Bardur's ghost has faded. Snow falls so heavily that it binds heaven and ea
rth together. As the villagers gather in the inn to drink schnapps and coffee while the boy reads to them from Shakespeare's Hamlet, Jens the postman stumbles in half dead, having almost frozen to his horse. On his next journey to the wide open fjord
s he is accompanied by the boy, and both must risk their lives for each other, and for an unusual item of mail. The Sorrow of Angels is a timeless literary masterpiece; in extraordinarily powerful language it brings the struggle between man and natur
e tangibly to life. It is the second novel in Stefansson's epic and elemental trilogy, though all can be read independently.

The Mister
The thrilling new romance from E L James, author of the phenomenal number 1 bestselling Fifty Shades trilogyLondon, 2019. Life has been easy for Maxim Trevelyan. With his good looks, aristocratic connections, and money, he's never had to work and he's rarely slept alone.
But all that changes when tragedy strikes and Maxim inherits his family's noble title, wealth, and estates, and all the responsibility that entails. It's a role he's not prepared for and one that he struggles to face. But his biggest challenge is fighting his desire for an unexpected, enigmatic young woman who's recently arrived in England, possessing little more than a dangerous and troublesome past.
Reticent, beautiful, and musically gifted, she's an alluring mystery, and Maxim's longing for her deepens into a passion that he's never experienced and dares not name. Just who is Alessia Demachi? Can Maxim protect her from the malevolence that threatens her? And what will she do when she learns that he's been hiding secrets of his own? From the heart of London through wild, rural Cornwall to the bleak, forbidding beauty of the Balkans, The Mister is a roller-coaster ride of danger and desire that leaves the reader breathless to the very last page.

Scarry Harry 1.
Emberek, én azt mondom, hogy kaszásnak lenni siralmas egy dolog! Egyedül kell melózni, a futószalag csak pörög, közben meg folyton csörög a telefon. Nincs megállás, be kell gyűjteni a lelkeket, hogy átsegítsük őket a túlvilágra. Halál uncsi az egész, nekem elhihetitek! Kevés a szabadnap, a fizetés meg temetni való! Kész szerencse, hogy megismerkedtem Ottóval és Emilyvel. Ők ugyan emberek, de nagyon jó arcok! Együtt harcolunk a gonosz ellen... vagy valami ilyesmi. Most mindenesetre ki kell derítenünk, ki volt az a megátalkodott, aki elrabolta Otto háziszellemeit! Üdv, Harold (kaszásember 520 éve)
