Presumed Guilty


‘A superb, sexy sequel to Presumed Innocent’ Sunday Times‘A legend of suspense fiction’ Steve Cavanagh‘The master of the courtroom drama’ Daniel Silva‘A writer with few peers in any genre’ David BaldacciDaily Mail Books to Watch 2025The Times Best Thrillers of 2025 So FarIn a sequel to Presumed Innocent, the book that redefined the legal thriller, judge and lawyer Rusty Sabich returns to the courtroom to defend his step-son against a racially-charged murder indictment as the boy’s life – and perhaps Rusty’s last chance at happiness – hang in the balance. Rusty is a retired judge attempting a third act in life with a loving soon-to-be wife, Bea, with whom he shares both a restful home on an idyllic lake in the rural Midwest and a plaintive hope that this marriage will be his best, and his last. But the peace that’s taken Rusty so long to find evaporates when Bea’s young adult son, Aaron, living under their supervision while on probation for drug possession, disappears. If Aaron doesn’t return soon, he will be sent back to jail. Aaron eventually turns up with a vague story about a camping trip with his troubled girlfriend, Mae, that ended in a fight and a long hitchhike home. Days later, when she still hasn’t returned, suspicion falls on Aaron, and when Mae is subsequently discovered dead, Aaron is arrested and set for trial on charges of first degree murder. Faced with few choices and even fewer hopes, Bea begs Rusty to return to court one last time, to defend her son and to save their last best hope for happiness. For Rusty, the question is not whether to defend Aaron, or whether the boy is in fact innocent – it’s whether the system to which he has devoted his life can ever provide true justice for those who are presumed guilty. 5* READER REVIEWS'Absolutely brilliant''Scott Turow at his very best''A great legal thriller ... Kept me riveted''Fantastic. It will draw you in from the first page''Scott Turow is the master of the legal, court room drama''A masterpiece - one of the best legal thrillers I have read''This is what you call a proper legal thriller'

Aki dzsinnekkel játszik - Hat kártya 1.


Alkut kötnél egy dzsinnel, ha az életed lenne a tét? Kasia leleményes alkudozó, aki nem riad vissza a varázslattól izzó, koppenhágai éjszakától sem. Különleges kártyapaklijával megbízásokat teljesít: bárkit és bármit képes megtalálni a megfelelő ellenszolgáltatásért cserébe. Hisz a mágiának mindig ára van... Ezt Kasia is fájdalmasan tapasztalja a saját bőrén, amikor a varázsereje szeszélyessé válik, és még a pakliját is ellopják. Ezek nélkül ő is vérző préda egy ragadozókkal teli világban. Ráadásul egy dzsinn érkezik Koppenhágába, aki Kasiánál is ravaszabb alkudozó, és a lányt keresi. A dzsinn mindig megszerzi, amit akar, ezúttal pedig a kártyákra fáj a foga. Ám azok eltűnése fellobbantja közöttük az amúgy is ellenséges lángokat. Kasiának biztonság és válaszok kellenek, a dzsinnek pedig a pakli. Többet is kaphatnának egymástól, mint amire vágynak, de ehhez össze kell dolgozniuk egy pattanásig feszült helyzetben. Sötét alkuk. Végzetes árulások. Élet-halál harc a nagyvadak között. Kasia és a dzsinn találkozásával egy kegyetlen játszma veszi kezdetét, amiben semmilyen ár sem túl nagy - de lehet-e egyáltalán győztese ennek a harcnak?

Silence

There can be no higher praise' Daily TelegraphWith an introduction by Martin Scorsese.Jesuit priest Sebastian Rodrigues sets sail for Japan in 1640, full of idealistic fire. But the cold land he arrives in has no place for missionaries: the Tokugawa shogunate has banned Christianity, and believers face torture and execution. Living in hiding, leading worship in secret, Rodrigues begins to question the true meaning of compassion - and the limits of his own belief.This stunning work of historical fiction - introduced by Martin Scorsese, who adapted it into a film - is one of literature's deepest explorations of doubt, fellowship, and enduring faith.Part of the Pushkin Press Classics series: timeless storytelling by icons of literature, hand-picked from around the globe.Translated by William Johnston.Shusaku Endo (1923-1996) was one of the greatest novelists of postwar Japan. Baptised as a Roman Catholic as a child, his work explores the relationship between East and West from his unique perspective as a Japanese Christian. Endo won the Akutagawa Prize and the Yomiuri Literary Prize, was nominated for the Nobel Prize several times, and received an Order of Culture from the Japanese government. Among his other novels are Deep River, The Samurai and The Sea and Poison, all published by Pushkin Press.William Johnston (1925-2010) was born in Belfast. He entered the Jesuit priesthood and was sent to their mission in Japan in 1951. He would spend most of the rest of his life there, teaching English at Tokyo's Sophia University, writing on mysticism, and practising aspects of both Catholicism and Zen Buddhism.

Evensong


'Always, [O'Nan] is a master at quotidian details, a master at human emotion. Always, he writes with a huge and generous heart. Evensong is tender and funny, poignant and true. The novel is a little miracle' Boston GlobeThe Humpty Dumpty Club is distraught when their powerhouse leader, Joan Hargrove, takes a bad fall down the stairs, knocking her out of commission. Now, as well as running errands and shepherding those less able to their doctors' appointments, they have to pick up the slack. Between navigating their own relationships and aging bodies and attending choir practice, these invisible yet indomitable women help where they can. Weaving together the perspectives of the four cardinal members as they tend to those in need, Stewart O'Nan has fashioned a rich and moving novel that celebrates our capacity for patience and care. Vivid, warm and often wryly funny, Evensong reminds us that life is made up of moments both climactic and quotidian, and we weather those moments with the people we choose to keep close.

Theodoros


Služobnícky synak Tudor objavuje svet valašskej šľachty i pestrého obyvateľstva Bukurešti v prvej polovici 19. storočia, Theodoros sa oddáva pirátskemu životu v jagavom gréckom súostroví a panovník Tewodros zasa plieni etiópske cisárstvo, ktoré podľa legendy od šalamúnskych čias ukrýva starozákonnú Archu zmluvy. Tri mená však majú jediného nositeľa – hrdinu vedeného neskrotnou túžbou po láske, svetskom uznaní i zbožštení, pre ktoré neváha obetovať svoju dušu aj životy iných. Vymyslený, rozprávkový, a predsa v mnohom historicky presný román Theodoros sa zrodil v hlave jeho tvorcu Mirceu Cărtăresca na základe jedného skutočného listu z 19. storočia. Literárna cesta jeho hrdinu sa nápadne podobá na putovanie starej i novšej literatúry po krajinách a kontinentoch a je esenciou radosti a pasie z rozprávania, ale aj vratkosti a ukrutnosti ľudského plemena.
