Jack the Ripper?
In the early hours of Tuesday, 3 April 1888, just after the Easter Bank Holiday, Emma Elizabeth Smith, a middle-aged woman living in unfortunate circumstances, was brutally attacked in a side street off Whitechapel Road. In the crime-ridden East End of late Victorian London, such violence was tragically common. Yet this particular attack marked the beginning of a mystery that would achieve worldwide notoriety: the Whitechapel murders, otherwise known as the Jack the Ripper murders.Unlike the other Ripper victims, Emma Elizabeth Smith survived long enough to recount her ordeal, stating that her attack was not at the hands of a lone madman, but of three men, one possibly as young as 19. Her testimony has often been dismissed, as it does not fit the long-held narrative surrounding the Ripper''s crimes. Consequently, Emma’s story has been overlooked, her suffering disconnected from the infamous murders that followed.This book seeks to reconcile all the Whitechapel murders of 1888 and beyond, offering critical context about the streets where these crimes occurred and the shadowy figure who haunted them. Could Edward Buckley, a violent local thug with a history of knife attacks as early as 1884, hold the key to understanding the ''Autumn of Terror''?It is time to finally listen to the voice of Emma Smith, the first victim of Jack the Ripper.

Egy szerfelett kellemetlen eset - Beatrice Steele újabb esete
Beatrice Steele valóra váltotta élete álmát: megoldott egy gyilkosságot, kézre kerítette a tettest, és bebizonyította, hogy nem is annyira különc, mint amilyennek tartják. Most Londonban próbál szerencsét hű kísérőnője, Miss Bolton társaságában, a fényes színházairól és kevésbé vonzó repülőmókusairól nevezetes Sweetbriar negyedben. Itt alapította meg a DS Nyomozóirodát a józan, komoly és megbízható Drake nyomozóval.
Csakhogy a nagyváros nem fogadja őket tárt karokkal. A dicsfény továbbra is a sármos detektívet, Sir Huxley-t, Beatrice egykori bálványát övezi, így neki és partnerének az elkóborolt macskák és elveszett szemüvegek utáni kutatás marad. Ráadásul Beatrice anyja sem tágít, hogy lányát arra ösztönözze, minél előbb találjon magának egy gazdag férjet, mielőtt a család végképp anyagi romlásba dől. Beatrice a kötelesség és a vágy, az illem és a kalandvágy között őrlődik, mígnem egy brutális gyilkosságsorozat felforgatja London életét.
A Sweetbriar negyed leggazdagabbjai a művészvilággal kerülnek szembe, és a városban gyorsabban terjed a félelem, mint a pletyka. Beatrice és Drake egy veszedelmes ügy közepén találják magukat, ahol minden nyom újabb titkot rejt, és minden mosoly mögött árulás lappang.
Ahogy a nyomozás báltermek csillogásán, félhomályos színházakon és sötét intrikákon át vezet, Beatrice-nek nemcsak egy kíméletlen gyilkost kell lelepleznie, hanem a jó hírét is mentenie kell – és talán az életét is.

Le Gourmet – A hatalom íze
Bon appetit! Olivier Blanchard, sármos pszichopata francia hobbiséf, aki a legnevesebb párizsi mestereknél tanult, és fiatalon megjárta az idegenlégiót. Imád gyilkolni és főzni. Maga se gondolta volna, de sikerült a két szenvedélyét egy igazán jövedelmező vállalkozássá fejlesztenie. Hiszen talált egy piaci rést, amely rettentően gazdaggá, szinte érinthetetlenné teszi.
Egy bűnözőkből álló csoport szállítja neki az „alapanyagot”, de beteg ösztöneinek engedelmeskedve időnként maga is „vadászni” indul. A hiper-gazdagokból álló vendégköre által leadott rendelések alapján állítja össze a fogásokat. A világ minden tájáról érkeznek hozzá, hogy elfogyaszthassák a valaha volt legdrágább és legvérfagyasztóbb vacsorájukat. Daniel Gaal magyar származású torontói rendőr az Interpol párizsi irodájának nemzetközi bűnszervezetekkel foglalkozó ügyosztályán dolgozik. És van egy titkos képessége, amely a nyomozásait még eredményesebbé teszi. Dan ugyanis Látó. Őt állítják Blanchard ügyére. Ahol olyan dolgokat lát és érzékel, amelyeket még eddig soha, és soha többé nem is akar. Ezekben a körökben a pénz az isten, és szinte semmi sem szabhat gátat az elfajult korcs vágyaknak. Itt egy óriási jacht vagy egy magángép csupán aprópénz. Az igazi hatalom az, ha mások élete a te kezedben van, és az az igazi öröm, ha a törvények felett állsz.
Bihary Péter misztikus thrillere egy pénztől csillogó, de vérrel áztatott világba invitál minket.
„A menü titkos. Az étel emberi. A hatalom édesebb, ha vér ízesíti. Egy misztikus thriller, amitől kihűl a vacsorád.” – John Cure író

"Vitajte v mojej rodine," povie Nina Winchesterová a podá mi svoju elegantnú ruku s dokonalou manikúrou. Zdvorilo sa usmejem a poobzerám sa po mramorovej chodbe. Táto práca je mojou poslednou šancou na nový začiatok. Môžem sa tváriť, že som niekto iný. Čoskoro však pochopím, že Winchesterovci majú oveľa nebezpečnejšie tajomstvá než ja...
Každý deň im upratujem nádherný dom odhora až dolu. Chodievam po ich dcéru do školy. A varím chutné jedlá pre celú rodinu. Potom jedávam sama v maličkej izbe v podkroví.
Usilujem sa ignorovať neporiadok, ktorý Nina dookola vytvára, len aby ma mohla sledovať, ako ho upratujem. Aj jej klamstvá o vlastnej dcére či rastúce trápenie jej manžela Andrewa. Lenže pri pohľade do jeho nádherných hnedých očí plných bolesti je ťažké nesnívať, aké by bolo viesť rovnaký život ako Nina. S obrovským šatníkom, luxusným autom, dokonalým manželom.
Iba jediný raz si vyskúšam jedny z Nininých snehobielych šiat, aby som zistila, aké to je. Nina na to však príde...a keď zistím, že dvere mojej izby sa dajú zamknúť iba zvonku, je už neskoro.
Napriek tomu sa upokojujem, že Winchesterovci netušia, kto v skutočnosti som.
Nevedia, čoho som schopná...
