Muž s prstenem
Říká se, že nadpoloviční většinu vražd žen spáchá jejich partner. V případě nezvykle brutální vraždy sestřičky z nemocnice v Kalnes ale všechno nasvědčuje tomu, že partner je v tom tentokrát nevinně a v okolí řádí sériový vrah. Na světlo postupem času vyplývají další skutečnosti, které ukazují na dávný, dosud nevyřešený případ mladé studentky ve vzdálené Voldě – je mezi nimi ale skutečná spojitost, nebo se jedná jen o slepou uličku?
Bývalý policista Anton Brekke má navíc úplně jiné starosti – snaží se udržet si práci v nemocnici a nepropadnout své staré hráčské vášni. Když ho jeho bývalý parťák přijde požádat o radu, nemá žádnou motivaci se do případu zapojovat. To se ovšem změní, když zemře jedna z jeho pacientek. Že by i její smrt souvisela s vraždami, které vyšetřuje Magnus Torp?
Při rozkrývání starých tajemství se ale může snadno stát, že bývalí kolegové narazí na protivníka, na kterého jejich síly stačit nebudou.

The Crystal Vase
A road-trip across Europe and back in time: the debut graphic memoir from the prize-winning author of A Funeral In Freiburg.
When her imperious, chain-smoking German Jewish grandmother dies, it falls to Astrid and her father to drive a hire van to the Black Forest and collect the family heirlooms from Gisela's nicotine-stained apartment.
In Freiburg, they are faced with several lifetimes' worth of belongings to sort through - infested Persian rugs, mysterious photographs, a toy monkey that started a marriage - and a grasping landlord, impatient to renovate.
As the list of demands from uncles, sisters and cousins grows longer, the rabbit-holes of history and memory grow deeper. Long-buried secrets and tales of survival are revealed - from Nazi Germany to colonial Africa - and old feuds are reignited, as father and daughter struggle with the responsibility of preserving the family legacy. More importantly, will they be able to fit everything into a medium wheel-base transit van?
Funny, bittersweet and beautifully drawn, The Crystal Vase is an odyssey of family arguments, identity crises, and late discoveries.

The cabin should be empty - but it's not. Inside is a man named Alex and an extraordinary little girl who calls herself Artemis Darth Vader. There's far more to Art than meets the eye. But as Nate and Alex bond over just how special she truly is, they discover that powerful forces are closing in - forces that want nothing more than to control her . . .
There's nothing more human than a broken heart.
Representations of the Intellectual
Are intellectuals merely the servants of special interests or do they have a larger responsibility? In these wide-ranging essays, one of our most brilliant and fiercely independent public thinkers addresses this question with extraordinary eloquence. Said sees the intellectual as an exile and amateur whose role it is 'to speak the truth to power' even at the risk of ostracism or imprisonment. Drawing on the examples of Jonathan Swift and Theodor Adorno, Robert Oppenheimer and Henry Kissinger, Vietnam and the Gulf War, Said explores the implications of this idea and shows what happens when intellectuals succumb to the lures of money, power, or specialization.
